With full unlocks, Galvantula is a bit of a beast in Classic. Wildbolt Storm with 100 accuracy and boosted by Transistor and Quiver Dance makes for a great spread sweeping option against most non-Ground mons. Galvantula hits a key speed tier to outpace most threats in the game, comes with good speed control options through paralysis and Sticky Web, and its deceptively decent typing generally lets it survive long enough to Quiver, especially with Parabolic Charge for recovery. Galvantula is particularly useful into Mono-Bug runs, as it checks most Flying types that the type struggles against.
