With two Pokémon in the spotlight, stock up on Poké Balls, Berries, and Incense. Maximize your chances of catching both and securing those shiny versions. Remember to clear space in your Pokémon storage – you'll be catching a lot!

Voltorb (#100): A Kanto Classic

Voltorb, the Kanto Electric-type Pokémon, offers 3 candies and 100 Stardust upon capture. It evolves into Electrode using 50 candies. Boasting a max CP of 1141, 109 Attack, and 111 Defense, Voltorb packs a punch. However, remember its weaknesses: Ground-type attacks deal 160% damage. Electric, Flying, and Steel types inflict reduced damage (63%). The optimal moveset is Spark and Discharge, delivering 5.81 DPS and 40.62 TDO. Rainy weather boosts its attack power. Keep an eye out for its blue shiny form!

Hisuian Voltorb (#100): A Regional Variant

Hisuian Voltorb, also #100 in the Pokédex, shares Voltorb's evolution line and rewards (3 candies and 100 Stardust). Its stats (1141 CP, 111 Defense, 109 Attack) are identical to Voltorb. While also Electric-type, its type matchups differ slightly. Bug, Fire, Ice, and Poison-type attacks deal 160% damage, while Grass, Steel, and Water types inflict reduced damage (63%). Electric-type attacks cause only 39% damage. The best moveset is Tackle and Thunderbolt, yielding 5.39 DPS and 37.60 TDO. Partly cloudy and rainy weather enhance its damage output. Look for its distinctive black shiny variant!
