Electro Ball Effect
Has the user hurl an electric orb to the designated location, where it remains for a short time. When an electric orb and an opposing Pokémon touch, the orb releases its electricity and deals damage to nearby opposing Pokémon. A maximum of 2 uses can be kept in reserve for this move.
How to Use Electro Ball
Hurl Straight at Targets
Although Electro Ball's electric orb stays in position when it reaches the end of its designated path, Alolan Raichu can just simply hurl it straight at targets.
Since the electric orb travels in a straight path before staying in position, as long as it comes into contact with a target, it will explode and deal damage, so hurling the move straight at targets is an effecient way to use it.
Place Electro Ball in Strategic Spots
Alternatively, placing electric orbs on spots where there's a high chance of opponents running into it is one way of using the move.
Spots like inside grass areas, narrow paths, and even inside areas created by other Pokemon's moves, like Mean Look and Triad Blitz, are some strategic spots where Alolan Raichu can place Electro Ball.
Make Electric Orbs Explode Using Thunderbolt
If Alolan Raichu learns Electro Ball and Thunderbolt, it can quickly make the electric orbs explode by hitting them with Thunderbolt, dealing damage to nearby enemies.
This tactic can deal a lot of burst damage, especially if two (2) electric orbs are hit. A good rule of thumb is getting the proper angle to hit multiple electric orbs to maximize the damage.
Pull Electric Orbs Towards Targets Using Psychic
On the other hand, if Alolan Raichu learns Electro Ball and Psychic, it can pull electric orbs towards the center of Psychic's target location by hitting them with the move, allowing the Pokemon to have some control over the orbs.
This tactic is somewhat difficult to do given Psychic's short cast range and limited area of effect, but it will be one of the ways Alolan Raichu uses the moveset.
