A lightning rod or lightning conductor is a iron rod that is used to make lightning strike it, rather than strike something else. It is part of a lightning protection system. Such a system is made of many such rods. These rods are usually placed at high points of buildings and structures.
Lightning Rod forces all single-target Electric-type moves - used by any other PokÃ©mon on the field - to target this PokÃ©mon, and with 100% accuracy. This includes the status move Thunder Wave. The ability is most useful in double/triple battles.
