If you've played any amount of SM OU, you know Koko. It fires Thunder(bolts) off of a seemingly underwhelming Special Attack that just so happens to OHKO your Genesects every time. :< It's quickly becoming the premier Electric type in OU, usurping Thunderus from its role. They're actually built similarly, though Koko outdamages Thundurus despite the 20 point Sp.A difference due to Electric Terrain. A lack of SR weakness helps too.
