It evolves from Eelektrik when exposed to a Thunder Stone. It is the final form of Tynamo.
Biology
Eelektross is an eel-like Pokémon that resembles a lamprey, with a long tentacle-like, finned limb extending from its head. It has red eyes, a dark blue body, and possesses clawed, paddle-like arms with yellow spots and yellow-and-red palms. It has a beige fin on the upper portion of its body and beige fin-like legs below. It lives in the ocean, but it comes ashore to capture prey. It can use its arms to crawl out of the ocean and its sucker mouth to suck in prey. After latching onto its prey using its sucker mouth, it drags the prey into the ocean. It electrifies prey before eating.

Trivia
- Eelektross and its pre-evolved forms were designed by Yusuke Ohmura.[1]
- Eelektross and its pre-evolved forms are the only Pokémon with no type weaknesses.
- Eelektross's White, Black 2, White 2, X and Omega Ruby Pokédex entries mention that Eelektross can use its fangs to shock its prey with electricity. Despite this, Eelektross cannot learn Thunder Fang.
Origin
Eelektross and its pre-evolved forms are based on eels,[1] perhaps specifically the electric eel (which is actually a type of knifefish, despite its name). They may also be based on lampreys and leeches. Its Electric typing may be an allusion to bioelectrogenesis.
Name origin
Eelektross is a combination of eel, a corruption of electric, and possibly boss or gross.
Shibirudon may be a combination of 痺れ shibire (numbness) or しびれうなぎ shibireunagi (electric eel) and don (from the Latin dominus, lord) or ὀδούς odoús (Greek for tooth).
