Complete details of Manectric in Pokemon Go

Manectric was first originally encountered in the Hoenn region and it is Gen 3 type. The blue and yellow Manectric served as little more than a Pokédex entry when introduced to Pokémon Go. It is not as powerful as other electric Pokemon such as Raikou, Zekrom, and Zapdos, but the new feature called the Mega Evolution in Pokemon Go provides a considerable boost not only to Manectric's stats. It also provides a considerable boost in energy to any Electric type allies. With all this, Manectric is definitely going to be a very useful addition to add to your Pokemon collection.
