The faster Pokemon is hit by the move.
If two Pokemon have Lightningrod in a multi battle,the faster Pokemon will draw the attack.In the event of a speed tie, the Pokemon who has been on the field longest will draw the attack.

The Electric attack will hit the fastest Lightningrod user. Doing some tests on my Black and White 2, Manectric was hit in 100% if a Thunderbolt was used by the middle Pokemon. Thus, I am assuming this was due to the fact that Manetrics superior speed(compared to Rhyperior. There might be another cause for this, but my strongest guess is that it have to do with the speed.
