Explanation of Set
This bug is awesome. Sure, it's not as versatile or fast as Jolteon, but it's got other tricks up its sleeve. First off, it can use Thunder reliably, due to its ability Compoundeyes. That alone makes it stronger than Jolteon's Specs Thunderbolt when Life Orbed.
Similar, due to its Bug typing it has an extra STAB option which never hurts, and it has access to Stun Spore. Sick of Ground types switching in to absorb Thunder?
Stun Spore will hit them in ways they never expected.
