Pokémon
Electric is the type of Pikachu, which is the quaternary starter of Kanto in Pokémon Revolution Online; this lends into the type's iconicity, as the Electric-type starter was iconized due to its deuteragonistic role in the anime and selectability in Pokémon Yellow.
Due to the dearth of Electric-type Pokémon available in relation to other types, it is one of the most scarcely huntable Pokémon in the wild. They are found the most abundantly in the Power Plant of Kanto.
