Learn about the Lightningrod ability in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Discover which Pokémon have it and how it affects Electric attacks in 2-on-2 battles.

The Pokémon with the Lightningrod ability are Cubone, Marowak, Rhyhorn, Rhydon, Electrike, Manectric, and Rhyperior.

This ability affects Electric-type attacks by redirecting them to the Pokémon with Lightningrod, making it a strategic advantage in double battles.

Tips
  • Utilize Lightningrod to protect a weaker ally from an incoming Electric-type move.
  • Consider the opponent's potential moves when choosing a Pokémon with Lightningrod.
  • This ability only functions during battles and has no out-of-battle effects in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, unlike a similar feature in Pokémon Emerald.
