You know that Gatorade is not really an efficient way of electrolyte intake right? Eat a banana, some celery, drink some coconut water, etc. if you're not working out for multiple hours at once the whole electrolyte intake is pretty irrelevant in the moment anyways and you're better off with water. Soft drink companies use electrolyte as a buzzword to sell more drinks, they aren't magically healthy or beneficial because of it lol
Except in the case of working out for multiple hours you lose a ton of salts from your body from sweating, your body needs those salts to function. Gatorade is more effective in that situation because the electrolytes in it replace those salts you lost. More water will cause you to sweat even more, thus flushing more salts from your body and can actually cause you to hurt yourself very badly.
Gatorade also has carbohydrates and calories which help fuel your body while it's working out.
