Wattson's Manectric (Japanese: テッセンのライボルト Tessen's Livolt) is Wattson's main Pokémon in all media he has appeared in; that is, in the games, anime, and the manga.
In the anime
History
Manectric first appeared as an Electrike in Watt's with Wattson?. Wattson became depressed after he lost to Ash when his Pikachu knocked out all three of his Pokémon. An Electrike went up to him which cheered him up. With Electrike around, Wattson forgot about the loss completely and fed the Electric-type some Pokémon food.
Wattson continued to play with the Electrike and when Electrike was about to perform its Thunder Wave attack, Team Rocket interfered with their Vacuum car. Wattson ran up to them and asked them what they were doing with the mecha. They responded by sucking up the Pokémon in the Power Plant including Electrike and Ash's Pikachu. When Team Rocket became distracted by the robot Raikou Wattson uses at his Gym, it gave Electrike the chance to break out of the cage with Pikachu's assistance. Electrike managed to do so with its Bite attack and reunited with Wattson. It battled with Jessie's Dustox and defeated it after it gave Pikachu problems. After Team Rocket got blasted off, Electrike decided that it wanted to stay with Wattson and Wattson added it to its team. Wattson then said his goodbyes to Ash and his friends, promising to battle him again in the future.
Electrike returned in Manectric Charge. When Ash and the others were at Mauville City again, Team Rocket tried to steal all of their Pokémon. However, Wattson and Watt arrived to stop Team Rocket in their tracks once again. Electrike tried to use Thunder Wave on their balloon but the attack had very little effect. When Watt's Ampharos freed the Pokémon with Iron Tail, Electrike finished the trio off with Thunder Wave along with Pikachu's Thunder and Ampharos's Thunder Shock. After the battle, Electrike started to evolve into Manectric. Wattson was very happy to see his Electrike evolve.
Ash decided to challenge Wattson and his Manectric to a training match with his newly caught Torkoal which Wattson gladly accepted. Later in the Gym, Wattson sent it out to battle Torkoal. Torkoal started things off with Overheat which fazed Manectric a bit. When Torkoal used the move again, Manectric took very little damage this time due to Overheat's effect of getting weaker. Torkoal switched to Flamethrower which made contact with Manectric but it shook off the attack. Manectric then started to use a combination of Charge and Thunder Wave while Torkoal countered with Overheat. Due to Overheat's effect, Thunder Wave got through and hit Torkoal, which made Manectric emerge victorious.
Personality and characteristics
Before Manectric, as an Electrike, met Wattson in New Mauville, Wattson was feeling depressed after his loss. However, Electrike going up to Wattson caused him to be happy. They became fast friends despite their first encounter. Electrike was willing to do well in performing its Thunder Wave technique. It kept trying but Wattson did not let it give up. Since Electrike was interested in Wattson, he allowed it to stay. After Electrike evolved into Manectric, both of them gave each other a hug, showing affection for each other. During Ash's rematch, Manectric's Thunder Wave was very successful as it knocked out Torkoal.
