>>52633180Electric is a dogshit type for any physical attacker without a signature move, so make Iron Thorns special. Also differentiates it from Ttar.
Without Sandstorm, it really doesn't benefit from Rock-typing, there aren't many special Rock moves, and it's not even made of rock anymore, so make it Electric/Dark.
Its speed as-is is stuck in a terrible middle-ground, where it's too fast to be good in Trick Room, but too slow to really be fast. So make it faster. Differentiates it from Ttar even more.
So make it fast. The game says it's smarter and doesn't pick fights as often, so it also makes sense for it to be a faster special attacker instead of a bulky physical attacker. Plus, Dark is a "crafty" type.
Also, give it Nasty Plot (because it's smart) and Dark Pulse (because it should at least have access to both STABs).
