ELETUX is capable of generating strong magnetic fields around its feet and tail that allow it to walk on water.
Biology[]
Eletux is an average-sized quadrupedal Pokémon with horse-like features and oily, fish-like blue skin. Yellow lightning patterns adorn each side of its torso, and its feet are a similar yellow color. It has three short, stubby tails and one long tail below them, each of which is tipped with a round, yellow bulb.
Eletux's four tails and feet can generate electricity, which can be then released as a high-voltage current. This current helps generate a magnetic field around its feet that allows it to walk over water. Even though Eletux isn't at risk for extinction, it has a naturally low population. This is mainly because Eletux are generally solitary Pokémon; it and Electruxo do not live in groups, as their magnetic fields conflict with each other. They can only live together with their mate since their electromagnetic fields resonate. Eletux can be found swimming or hovering over large, pristine lakes. They can also rarely be found in the ocean.
