Overview
Elekid is an Electric-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Electric Pokemon (Dex #103). This small, energetic creature rotates its arms to generate electricity, though it tires quickly and only charges up a little at a time. Elekid is the first stage of the Electabuzz and Electivire family. It carries the Generate specialty, which allows it to power nearby machines during its free time.
Habitat
Elekid lives at the Vending Machine Set habitat (#084), located in Bleak Beach.
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Vending Machine | 1 | Must be powered by a Utility Pole or a Generate Pokemon |
Waste Bin (any) | 1 | Any waste bin type works |
Elekid appears as a Common visitor at this habitat. It is available during all times of day (Dawn, Day, Dusk, Night) and in all weather conditions (Sunny, Cloudy, Rainy).
Important: Vending Machines need to be powered by either a Utility Pole or a Pokemon with the Generate specialty to count as part of a habitat. Without power, the Vending Machine will not activate the habitat.
Location
The Vending Machine Set habitat is found in Bleak Beach. Vending Machines can be located in the Bleak Beach area near the Pokemon Center and other town structures. Waste Bins are common furniture items found throughout the world.
How to Befriend
Place a powered Vending Machine and a Waste Bin near each other to create the Vending Machine Set habitat. Make sure the Vending Machine is connected to power through a Utility Pole or a Generate Pokemon. Once activated, Elekid will appear. Walk up and interact with it to befriend it.
Specialty: Generate
Elekid has the Generate specialty. Pokemon with this specialty power nearby machines in their free time. This is particularly useful because Elekid can keep its own habitat's Vending Machine running, creating a self-sustaining setup. Generate Pokemon are essential for powering Vending Machines, streetlights, and other electrical appliances across your island.

Related Pokemon
Elekid belongs to a three-stage family alongside Electabuzz (Dex #104) and Electivire (Dex #105). In the main Pokemon series, Elekid evolves into Electabuzz at level 30, and Electabuzz evolves into Electivire when traded while holding an Electirizer. In Pokopia, all three are found at separate habitats. Elekid and Electivire both share the Vending Machine Set habitat, while Electabuzz appears at the Light-up Stage and Trash Can Central habitats.
Tips
Elekid's Generate specialty means it can power its own habitat's Vending Machine, so you do not need a separate power source once Elekid is befriended.
If you need more Generate Pokemon, consider also befriending Electabuzz, Flaaffy, or Mareep.
Elekid shares the Vending Machine Set habitat with Electivire, but Electivire is a Rare spawn while Elekid is Common.
