Build Notes
Raichu absorbs Discharge from Mega Eelektross via Lightning Rod, converting each spread move into a free +1 SpA boost that powers up subsequent Thunderbolts and makes Eelektross hit harder. Timid with 32 SpA and 32 Spe maximizes Speed to land Fake Out first, flinching the lead and letting Eelektross act safely on turn 1. Focus Sash ensures Raichu survives a strong hit and can retaliate with Endeavor to reduce a healthy opposing threat to 1 HP for a guaranteed follow-up KO from Eelektross. Rain Dance provides a secondary method to enable Thunder on Eelektross when Pelipper is unavailable.
