Off the top of my head,
Rotom- His base ghost form is highly effective, with access to levitate to take care of those pesky ground types, and wisp to cripple physical attackers while having access to pain split makes it very viable for an electric team. Although you can't go wrong with any of the rotom forms, except rotom fan. Just a small off topic about this one, why does it need levitate when it is already part flying? But I digress, Rotom is an electric type I would choose.
Luxray- haven't seen too much use of this one since the balance. I think shadowfred had a good set, but I can't recall it. Maybe you can figure something out with it from there.
Dedenne- Although I hate fairies with a passion, Dedenne is a viable pokemon to use on a pure electric team. I Sp Atk combined with its typing make it a monster, and that cheeck pouch ability is too good to pass up on this tiny horror.
Electrode- Good old boom ball, high speed with high risk and reward allows for you to shut down most set up sweepers with a taunt, and then back out with an explosion to get an almost guaranteed kill and easy switch. Also has good sweep potential.
Galvantula- Sticky Web made this thing OU upon gen 6, and is even OU in our balance, but this glorified spider packs serious punch, and takes 1x damage from ground attacks, which is usually the bane of all electric types. Sticky web + Electro Ball your way to victory, or go with good old fashioned thunder.
Stunfisk- Where to start? Derpfish is as bulky as you can get him. He takes SE's to the face, and can seriously cripple a team by dropping status upon status. Scald, Toxic, Rest, and Discharge combined with static makes it an excellent poke to have on the team. Off topic, might need to swap out limber for something else. Electric types can't be paralyzed in gen 6, so limber is useless.
Lanturn- Yes, THE LANTURN. The poke that takes hits even better than derpfish, and can shrug off status even better, but who said having two of a good thing is bad? Volt and Water absorb are both great choices, but since this is an electric team, water absorb would be more viable.
And in case you don't want derpfish
Pikachu- Mother effing Pikachu. Though not balanced, Pikachu the face of Pokemon. Itss the pimp in the show, and all around adorable, and soon, it will ave costumes. Screw balance, it's all about style now. Pikachu automatically wins you all battles if it's is cosplaying. Its typing becomes HELL NOPE, and shrugs off every attack ever, simply because Pikachu decided to be fabulous.
Roloc:
Rotom
I do have rotom, but I have the fridge rotom. Stab ice really helps a lot on a mono electric team. Though I don't run WoW because I have it scarfed with trick so I can revenge kill, lead and cripple walls/stallers.
Luxray
I made a toxic orb set that looks like it will do pretty nicely. With it have stab volt tackle (bp 120) it can do some really nice damage.
Dedenne
I have thought about using the same set I made for meowth just because I love seeing him use nasty plot > get hit > fall below 50% > then goes right back to full. It's awesome. Plus fairy might come in handy against any dragons that try to resist all my electric pokemon.
Electrode
I have electrode right now as a kinda halfway scarfer with a speed of 414 when jolly. But I havent landed many kills with him yet so I don't know if it will stay.
Galvantula
I use this for now, but all it mostly does is sticky web > takes hit to 1hp due to focus sash > thunder > die. xD
But I do love the sticky web support for the rest of my team.
Stunfisk
Never really used this thing but I should give it a try
Lanturn
I thought about useing this JUST to have an immunity to water but then I thought, eh why bother, my whole team has stab electric.
Pikachu
I thought of using raichu if it could use the light ball item but it can't so. Made me sad because I was ready to have a raichu with 400+ attack and special attack as a mixed attacker.
This is the current team I have. I've only battled Miss Wednesday with it so far.

Desbear:
Just fought his team with a Normal team of mine, and we were fairly evenly matched, until he got his electabuzz. His Galvantula' Sticky web is what kept him alive, and it seemed to work very well in his favor.
BlazingNinetails:
I wonder how long can he last against a fire team.
Because i know a few pokemons with good Sp. Def. and some others with good Atk or Sp. Atk.
Roloc:
Who?
