The Electrike tribe (also known as the Electrike clan, Manectric's tribe, or Manectric's clan) is a group of eight led by a  that appears in. They are very territorial, and follow a "strike first, ask later" strategy.

History and in-game role
According to, Luxray's clan, or in Explorers of Sky Manectric's clan, was once a peaceful tribe, roaming around in search of a place for temporary rest. However, once they were attacked by a fearsome foe, and ever since they always "strike first for fear of being stricken". They reside in Amp Plains often, for it is cloaked by thunderstorms during parts of the year. During the time in which the undefined adventures, takes 's Water Float and places it in Amp Plains, within Luxray or Manectric's habitat. The player and partner go to regain it. The player tries to hide from the clan, to find it useless; Luxray claims to see any that hide while Manectric would prefer that they hide so he could sneak up quietly from behind. Realizing that hiding is useless, they stand up to the challenge, but find themselves surrounded.

After the fight, as Luxray or Manectric uses a last-ditch attack that resembles, Dusknoir blocks it, saving the player and partner. The clan then leaves, never seen again.
