Tackle Neutral Power 12 Energy 1 Cheap hit. Use it to bank energy for a Burst.
Spark Dart Electric Power 16 Energy 2 Fast elemental poke. Good when you need pressure without spending too much.
Thunderbolt Electric Power 24 Energy 3 Reliable STAB damage. Costs more than you regen, so not every turn.
Volt Cyclone Electric Power 32 Energy 4 Heavy mid-cost attack. Stronger than Strike, but not perfectly accurate.
