Elekid is an elite pivot in Little Cup, with an unmatched Speed tier and a wide range of coverage options that threaten much of the metagame. Vital Spirit provides teams another option to switch in on Spore from Foongus. Elekid's moveset is highly customizable to fit the role it plays on a team. Thunderbolt threatens high damage on Vullaby, Mareanie, and Wingull. Knock Off can weaken checks such as Mudbray and Chinchou for Elekid to KO them later in the game. Focus Blast can be used over either Thunderbolt or Knock Off to OHKO Alolan Diglett and Alolan Sandshrew. Psychic hits Foongus and Mienfoo super effectively. Volt Switch offers frail attackers such as Wingull and Stunky a safe way to enter the field on the switches that Elekid forces. Alternatively, Tera Blast Grass is used to more directly threaten the aforementioned Chinchou and Mudbray. Tera Psychic boosts the damage of Psychic against targets like Mienfoo, Foongus, and Glimmet and also makes Elekid resistant to Choice Scarf Gothita's Psychic.

Elekid complements powerful but frail Pokemon like Alolan Diglett and Wingull through Volt Switch, offering safe entry for them to wallbreak. Additionally, Elekid can use Tera Blast Grass to remove their checks such as Mudbray and Chinchou, respectively. Elekid struggles to break through Grass-types like Foongus and Grookey, so Vullaby and Alolan Sandshrew make good teammates. In return, Elekid can threaten opposing Alolan Sandshrew for Vullaby and Mareanie for ally Alolan Sandshrew. Without Tera Blast Grass, Elekid struggles to get past Mudbray. A partner that can weaken Mudbray like Vullaby or Stunky can help with this.

Elekid is a powerful Pokemon in Little Cup, with an unmatched speed tier and a wide range of coverage options that threatens much of the metagame "powerful pokemon" is super vague, maybe like elite pivot or something that says more about its role?. Elekid's moveset is highly customizable to fit the role it plays on a team. Thunderbolt is Elekid's standard STAB move, threatening big damage on Vullaby, Mareanie, and Wingull. Knock Off can weaken checks such as Mudbray and Chinchou for Elekid to KO them later in the game. Focus Blast is an option over either Thunderbolt or Knock Off, and can be used to OHKOs Alolan Diglett and Alolan Sandshrew "is an option over" also can be improved, or maybe just "focus blast can be used over tbolt and knock off to OHKO adig .... Psychic hits Foongus and Mienfoo super effectively. Volt Switch can take advantage of switches that Elekid forces to safely bring in frail attackers such as Alolan Diglett and Stunky i think saying "bring in frail attackers" before "switches that elekid forces" will make this sentence more clear as its a bit hard to follow as is. Alternatively, Tera Blast is used with Tera Grass to more directly threaten the aforementioned Chinchou and Mudbray that otherwise comfortably take it on. Tera Psychic boosts the damage Elekid can do to Foongus, Mienfoo, and Glimmet, as well as making it resistant to Choice Scarf Gothita's Psychic "boosts" and "making" do not match tenses, change it to something like "and makes" or rework the sentence.

Elekid complements powerful but frail Pokemon like Alolan Diglett and Wingull through Volt Switch maybe elaborate on how (like opens up chances to switch in)? although you kinda did this earlier. Additionally, Elekid can use Tera Blast Grass to remove their checks such as Mudbray and Chinchou respectively, giving them an easier time breaking through teams part after the comma can be tightened up. Elekid struggles to break through Grass-types like Foongus or Grookey, so Vullaby and Alolan Sandshrew make good teammates. In return, Elekid can threaten opposing Alolan Sandshrew for Vullaby and Mareanie for ally Alolan Sandshrew. i would probably mention how vital spirit helps against foongus/sleep either here or in the first section. Also add something about how it also struggles to break through mudbray.

Elekid is an elite pivot in Little Cup, with an unmatched speed tier and a wide range of coverage options that threaten much of the metagame. Vital Spirit is nice to have, as the immunity to Spore from Foongus benefits Elekid greatly. any mon would benefit from this i would go something along the lines of the option to have a mon that can swap into spore besides foongus itself. Elekid's moveset is highly customizable to fit the role it plays on a team. Thunderbolt is Elekid's standard STAB move, threatening big damage on Vullaby, Mareanie, and Wingull.
