Jolteon
Jolteon is one of the 7 evolutions of Eevee. It is an Electric type that stays true to its typing with its mediocre defenses and blazing Speed.
Offensive Sets
Jolteon has many different attacking sets, but all of them take advantage of its high Special Attack. Its amazing Speed lets it out-speed the majority of its competition; it only helps if it has a Timid (+Speed, -Atk) nature on it if you feel inclined, however, another possible nature would be Modest (+Sp. Atk, -Atk), which would let you strike harder, but you won't out-speed as many Pokémon. The best items to use are the Choice Specs and the Life Orb. It is best to use the Life Orb only if you would like to boost your stats with either Charge Beam, or Work Up. If you are not using these it is best to stay with the Choice Specs. For moves, the two moves that are necessary are Thunderbolt and Volt Switch. However, if you want more power you can exchange Thunderbolt for the stronger, but less accurate, Thunder. After these two moves you can put Shadow Ball or Signal Beam, and Hidden Power Ice or Grass. Shadow Ball allows you to hit the specially bulky Psychic or Ghost types for super-effective damage, while Signal Beam lets you hit Psychic, Dark, or Grass types for super-effective damage. For the Hidden Powers, it is hard to get these two specifically, but there is no better alternative. HP Ice will easily OHKO the Dragon types that either resist, or are immune to Thunderbolt, such as Garchomp and Salamence, however HP Grass will let you OHKO the Water-Ground types that will easily wall Jolteon's other attacks.
Another usable, but not as effective set, would include using Quick Feet instead of Motor Drive. When you have a status affliction (paralysis, burn, etc), Quick Feet will increase your speed by 50%, which will allow you to out-speed every non-boosted Pokémon, even those with a Modest nature, which is also the best nature to use with this set. This set requires you to use a Flame Orb, so you will be taking continuous damage. When you use this set it will have similar moves to the Choice Specs set. This would be similar to using a Choice Scarf, but it lets you use a variety of moves.
