Did they make Electivire a physical attacker to show off the physical/special split?

Also Elekid, Electabuzz, and Electivire thread.

They did it because Electabuzz's physical movepool has always been better than its special movepool

And Thunder Punch is Electabuzz's signature move, so it makes more sense as a physical attacker

Possibly, it makes at least a little bit of sense. They need to hurry up and make a good physical electric move that's not exclusive to certain Pokemon though, Electivire is in dire need of that. And it's not the only one.

They make electivire a physical attacker because that design is calling for a manly pokemon that defeats niggers with his fists and brute strenght

Make Volt Tackle 150 BP with 50% recoil, like Head Smash.
Then make Wild Charge 120 BP with 33% recoil, like Double-Edge and its variants.
Even then we still gotta wait out for a strong, physical Electric move that doesn't inflict recoil.
also holy shit that image

GF buried Jynx's line because of controversies.
It's probably why Froslass exists.

Electivire really wishes it had Electabuzz's speed.
Hell with Eviolite, I think Electabuzz would be better in all cases save for raw power.

This is true. Despite Jynx's original design and censorship. Jynx was a good pokemon that had decent stats. 95 base speed and 115 Sp-Att is good for an ice/psychic type and a decent move pool. If she got an additonal evolution like Magmortar and Electivire did or a mega evolution she would be and probably be in UU or maybe OU and that's a strong maybe. But gamefreak buried her line because alot of ways to get her is usually at end game or you have to trade.

A Jynx evo would probably lose speed like Electivire and Magmortar did.

Which would be awful. Psychic/Ice is just really terrible defensive typing.

That may be true but if this does happen in the future maybe they will add speed and not lower it. Jynx isn't going to be defensive with it's shit defense already. Ice types in general are terrible in defense. What game freak should do for ice types is look at Jynx's or Weavile's base stats. Make Ice types glass cannons that can hit hard or cause trouble for teams. I mean if gamefreak made so many bulky ice types in the past and they all failed, it should be about time they change it up and let Ice types be speedy hard hitters.

Eviolite Electabuzz is GOAT. His access to solid Special moves and allowance to take advantage of HP Ice makes up for missing out on the stronger physical moves.
