Overview

Jolteon makes good use of its high Speed stat and decent power on bulky offense teams to threaten faster offense teams. It most notably outpaces Ribombee and other Pokemon like Sneasel and Cinccino. It becomes a nightmare for hyper offensive teams that fail to fit a Ground-type, as they are just frail enough for Jolteon to pressure effectively. However, against bulkier teams, its lesser power is more noticeable, as it struggles to make much progress on its own. This lesser power on top of its frailty allows foes like Gallade to trade with it. Jolteon's coverage options are also terrible, making it easier to pivot around even without an Electric-immune Pokemon, as Jolteon struggles against Ferroseed and Eldegoss regardless.

Shadow Ball hits Ground-types such as Sandslash and Rhydon, as well as other Electric-immune Pokemon like Lightning Rod Togedemaru. Hyper Voice functions as additional neutral coverage, not as spammable as Shadow Ball but doing a little more to neutral Pokemon like opposing Jolteon. With Heavy-Duty Boots, Toxic can cripple specially defensive Pokemon like Audino and Gigalith before Jolteon pivots out. Heal Bell provides more utility for teammates when Jolteon cannot make progress otherwise. Choice Specs gives Jolteon immediate power to clean up frail teams with Thunderbolt and notably OHKO Ribombee and Wishiwashi from full health. Heavy-Duty Boots lets Jolteon pivot more freely and run support moves but makes it struggle more to revenge kill foes. Jolteon can form reliable VoltTurn cores with Pokemon such as Wishiwashi and Whimsicott. These Pokemon also can deal with Ground-types like Sandaconda for Jolteon. Wallbreakers like Gallade and Sandslash can capitalize on bulky foes like Audino and Gigalith that Jolteon draws in as well. Fire-types like Centiskorch and Charizard take advantage of the Grass-types that check Jolteon, like Whimsicott. In return, Jolteon can pressure Water-types like Wishiwashi or spread Toxic poison onto foes like Gigalith.
