The only way you can get an Elekid in Pokemon Platinum is by breeding an Electabuzz or Electivire.
You get electivire by making an Electabuzz hold an electrizer, which is held by wild elekid 20% of the time.
Elekid is hard to get in Pokémon Pearl and Platinum. This is because the only way to get it is to have Fire Red inserted into the GBA slot on the DS.
Umbreon is the 197th Pokemon in the National Pokedex and Elekid is the 197th Pokemon in the Sinnoh Pokedex. If you are talking about Umbreon then you have to get an Eevee and Level it up at night from 8:00pm - 4:00 am. lol it took me until 2:00am to evolve it and it exactly evolved at Lv.36,which i was glad because then i could fall asleep. If you are talking about Elekid, get an Electabuzz near Sunnyshore City (or transfer it from Fire-Red/Leafgreen),leave it with the Pokemon Breeders in Soleaceon Town get the egg, or transfer a ditto from FireRed/LeafGreen and leave Ditto and Electabuzz with the breeders. -EliteRocketMilotic Umbreon evolves with happiness at night, just to let you know (The other guy wasn't very specific.)
you can only find it during swarms
In the Sinnoh Pokédex, the following electric types can be caught:Shinx (Luxio -> Luxray)Pichu (Pikachu -> Raichu)Elekid (Electabuzz - Electivire)*Jolteon (Eevee -> Thunderstone)**Platinum only
