| {{item infobox
| | '''Thunderbolts''' (also called '''Lightning''') are attack items found in the ''[[Mario Kart]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario]]'' series. These special items summon lightning from the sky, causing various effects. Thunder has often been thought to be [[Luigi|Luigi's]] counterpart to Mario's fire, but Luigi has also been seen to fire green flames, discrediting these theories. |

Lightning appears mainly in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]], but it also appears in other games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. | |

| ===''Mario Kart'' series===
| |
| [[File:MK8-Line-Bowser-Lightning.gif|thumb|[[LINE]] sticker showing Bowser being struck by lightning]]
| |
| In the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]], Lightning is a very powerful item that racers usually receive when they are in (or near) last place in a race. When used, Lightning will temporarily shrink all the other racers, making them slower and weaker, in addition to making them spin out and drop their items. It also temporarily makes the racers' voices high-pitched and sped up (with the exception of ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'') until being back to normal or getting squashed. It is also the [[emblem]] for the [[Lightning Cup]].
| |
|
| |
|
| In ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', when Lightning is used, a sound like that of a tiny alarm is heard during its effect. In ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' that sound is only heard when the Lightning is launched, and from ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' onward, the music in the race is affected when the player is hit by it. Lightning's effect can be avoided if a racer has a [[Mega Mushroom]], [[Super Star|Star]], [[Boo]], or [[Bullet Bill]] item activated when the bolt strikes, or if they are flying through the air after being shot out of a cannon in all games prior to ''Mario Kart 7'' or are frozen by an [[Ice Flower]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''.
| | == ''Mario Kart'' == |
| | In the ''Mario Kart'' series, '''Thunderbolts''' are extremely powerful items that racers usually receive when they are in (or near) last position in a race. When used, a Thunderbolt will temporarily shrink all the other racers, making them slower and weaker. |
|
| |
|
| ====''Super Mario Kart''====
| | In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' it will not affect you if you are currently indisposed. (such as having just been hit by another item, or fell over a cliff). |
| In ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', any shrunken racers spin out if driven over. While shrunk, the character's weight is equal to other shrunken players. Lightning is about twice as long than it would be in following games of the ''Mario Kart'' series. It is the rarest item, having 3.1% chance of being obtained if the player is in 5th place or lower for most tracks<ref name=gamefaqs>{{cite|url=gamefaqs.gamespot.com/snes/588738-super-mario-kart/faqs/78534|title=Item Probability Chart (SNES)|publisher=GameFAQs|language=en|date=April 17, 2021}}</ref> and 2nd or lower for Bowser Castle and Rainbow Road tracks.<ref name=gamefaqs/> | |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart 64''====
| | In ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', the effect of being hit by a Thunderbolt wears of quicker the lower in the rank you are. For example, someone hit by one while in 7th place will return to normal almost immediately, while those in 1st or 2nd place will remain shrunk for up to six seconds. |
| [[File:MK64 Lightning Shock.png|left|thumb|200px|A Thunder Bolt striking [[Mario]] and [[Toad]] in ''Mario Kart 64'']]
| |
| The Thunder Bolt returns in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and works like it did in ''Super Mario Kart''. While shrunk, racers cannot use items in their Item Windows,<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|title=''Mario Kart 64'' instruction manual|page=10 and 13|date=1997|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> but they can use items they have deployed. However, if two shrunken racers run into each other, they will both crush each other. A racer can obtain a Thunder Bolt if they are anywhere from second to eighth place while CPUs only obtain it in 8th place. The flash from the Thunder Bolt has been toned down in [[Virtual Console]] releases.<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=je4uAdPxPkU|title=(Epilepsy Warning) ''Mario Kart 64'' Lightning Bolt Flashing Alteration on Virtual Console|author=BlazingMan11|date=November 10, 2018|publisher=YouTube|language=en}}</ref>
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart: Super Circuit''====
| | == ''Paper Mario'' series == |
| Lightning is mostly the same in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', but shrunken racers now spin around and get pushed to the side if hit by a racer at regular size. The duration of Lightning is six seconds, shorter than in any other game of the ''Mario Kart'' series. [[Princess Peach]], [[Wario]], and [[Bowser]] are the only three CPUs who can obtain the item.{{ref needed}} The item is obtainable in 3rd place or lower, with the best chance of obtaining it being in 6th place or lower. The flashing effect of the Lightning was toned down in the {{iw|nwiki|Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program}} release.
| | [[Image:Thunder_rage_item2.PNG|frame|left|The powerful '''Thunder Rage'''.]] |
| | In the ''Paper Mario'' series, the attack item is known as a '''Thunder Bolt'''. This item summons a bolt of lightning that inflicts five damage to one enemy. |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''====
| | Also in the series is the much more powerful '''Thunder Rage'''. This item summons a lighting storm that inflicts five damage to ''all'' enemies. |
| In ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', Lightning can also scatter racers' items across the road when used. It does not affect racers who are either hit by an item or go out-of-bounds when the item is used. Also, unlike in ''Super Mario Kart'', ''Mario Kart 64'', and ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'', shrunken racers will not get squished or spun around if they ram into normal sized racers. However, tiny karts will be easy to push around. Lightning can be dropped on the road and remain there for a few seconds if the racer drives into certain obstacles, such as [[Freezie]]s.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart DS''====
| | In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the Thunder Rage can also be cooked by mixing a [[Shooting Star]] and a [[Point Swap]] (though not the best deal). |
| Lightning wears off a lot more quickly for lower ranked players in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', since it wears off almost immediately for the lowest ranked racer hit, while lasting up to eight seconds for the racer in first place. The item can still affect racers who are hit by an item at the same time the Lightning is used. Unlike previous games, the background music becomes distorted rather than not playing at all. Lightning can be obtained if the racer is in 6th place or lower in Grand Prix, though CPUs and players in VS race can receive it only in 8th place. Lightning is also in Shine Runners of [[Battle Mode]], where using it causes every opponent to drop a [[Shine Sprite]], excluding those without any.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart Wii''====
| | ==''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]''== |
| [[File:MKW Lightning Strike.png|thumb|150px|Lightning shrinking several racers at once, as seen in ''Mario Kart Wii'']]
| | In ''Mario Hoops'', the Thunderbolt played much the same purpose, stunning all players and making the ball drop out of one's grasp. |
| The effect of Lightning in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' is the same as in the previous game, wearing off quicker for racers in lower positions. If the racers are under the effects of a [[Mega Mushroom]], they will shrink back to normal size immediately and will not spin out or lose their items. In [[Battle Mode]], unlike other items, Lightning does not take away a balloon or coins. This item can be obtained if the racer is in 9th place or lower, with CPUs only being able to obtain it in 12th place. The best chance of getting this item is in 12th place, with a 22.5 percent (9 out of 40) chance of getting it in said position. There is also the [[Thunder Cloud]], which gives the recipient a speed boost prior to striking them with lightning. It is one of six items wherein only one can be in play at a time (the other five being the [[Thunder Cloud]], [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], [[Bullet Bill]], [[POW Block]], and [[Blooper]]), is one of four items with a cooldown timer for the first few seconds of a race (the other three being the Spiny Shell, POW Block, and Blooper), and is one of three items with a cooldown timer between uses (the other two being the POW Block and Blooper). Lightning is unobtainable for the first thirty seconds of a race, and once a Lightning is used, thirty seconds must elapse before another Lightning is obtainable.
| |
|
| |
|
| ====''Mario Kart 7''====
| | [[Category: Items]] |
| In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', the length of a Lightning's effects is identically shorter for racers in lower positions and longer for those in higher positions. In addition to the music being altered, an extra beat that plays in 1st place goes out of sync with the music for a few seconds after the attack. The racer is still shrunk if hit by an item. Any racers that are shrunk will also be squished if run over by normal sized racers, an effect returning from ''Mario Kart 64''. Unlike in prior games, when a driver is shot out of a cannon, the shrinking effect will still happen and the driver will fall off while gliding in midair. Additionally, up to three racers can hold a Lightning Bolt at a time, potentially unleashing two or three lightning attacks at once. This item can be obtained if the racer is in 7th or 8th place in Grand Prix, with CPUs and players in VS race only being able to obtain it in 8th place. Unlike previous installments, the character using this item celebrates their opponents getting successfully shrunk.

| ====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
| |
| [[File:MK8D Shy Guy Lightning Shock.jpg|thumb|250px|Green Shy Guy shrunk by Lightning in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'']]
| |
| In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the effect of this item is very similar to its effect in ''Mario Kart 7''. In these games however, when a character is shrunken, the loss of speed makes it more difficult for the racer to perform tricks and to drift. Unlike previous games of the ''Mario Kart'' series, when a racer is hit with Lightning, they will lose the item they are holding even if they are under the effects of a [[Super Star|Star]] (in the original version only). Like ''Mario Kart 64'' and ''Mario Kart 7'', when a racer is shrunken by Lightning, and another one with the normal size drives on them, they will be squished. Up to three racers can hold Lightning at the same time. Lightning will also strike all course elements that react to thrown items, such as Piranha Plants or the crystal switches on [[Hyrule Circuit]]. As of version 2.2.0 of ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', Lightning no longer causes drivers' [[glider]]s to close.
| |
| | |
| ====''Mario Kart Tour''====
| |
| Lightning returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', with its effect being similar in previous games. Unlike in ''Mario Kart 7'' and ''Mario Kart 8'', when a racer is hit with a Lightning while gliding, the glider does not retract. During a Lightning Frenzy, one racer will get struck each time the item is used. When non-Frenzy Lightning is used, interactable objects around the course react to it as they do when hit with an offensive item, but do not give points.
| |
| | |
| Normally, the player will lose all of their items when hit by Lightning, though if the player is using a [[Coin Box]], [[Bob-omb Cannon]], [[Mushroom Cannon]] or [[Banana Barrels]] when hit, the item will still be retained.
| |
| | |
| The following gliders increase the chance of getting Lightning and points for hitting racers with one.

| ===''Mario Pinball Land''===
| |
| Lightning appears as an item in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. When used, it defeats all on-screen enemies.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Power Tennis''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', Lightning appears as an item in the Item Battle in Exhibition Mode. When used, it shrinks the player's opponent(s), reducing their speed and power. Lightning also appears in 8-bit ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' styled sprites in the mini-game [[Coin Collectors]], where it is used when the player grabs it.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Baseball'' series===
| |
| Lightning is an item of the [[Toy Field]] in both games of the ''[[Mario Baseball (series)|Mario Baseball]]'' series. In ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'', it may sometimes occur by landing the ball in the ? space, and by doing so, it switches the leading player's coins with their coins. In ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', Lightning is an error item that can be received by the losing player.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'', Lightning is a usable item that can stun all players and make the ball drop out of one's grasp.

| |
| [[File:MPIT Lightning Striker.png|thumb|left|[[Wario]] struck by the Lightning Score Striker in ''Mario Party: Island Tour'']]
| |
| Lightning makes a few appearances in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. It first appears in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', although only from being depicted on the wrapper of the [[Cashzap Candy]]. In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', Lightning appears in [[King Boo's Puzzle Attack]], where lining three of them will give ten points to whoever lined up three of this item, while taking away three points from their opponents. It also unleashes lightning that will damage [[King Boo]] more than the other items do.
| |
| | |
| As of ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', Lightning has had the role of being an item, although here it is referred to as a [[Lightning Score Striker]], which subtracts three from an opponent's roll. In ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', Lightning returns as an item, this time in [[Coinathlon]], where using it stuns an opponent for a few seconds. Lightning is also an item in the Bowser Kaboom Squad mode of ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''.

| [[File:M&S Dream Race Lightning.png|thumb|Yoshi is struck by lightning in [[Dream Race (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Race]] in ''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games'' for the Wii.]]
| |
| Lightning appears as an item in a few installments of the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]]. Its first appearance in the series is the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'', where it is an item in [[Dream Race (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for Wii)|Dream Race]] that can temporarily stun all other characters and cause them to lose speed, though one can defend against Lightning by using either a Starman or invincibility from a [[Chaos Emerald]]. Lightning made its second appearance in the Wii version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', where it appears as an item in several Dream Events: in [[Dream Alpine (Individual)|Dream Alpine]], [[Dream Ski Cross (Individual)|Dream Ski Cross]] and [[Dream Snowboard Cross (Individual)|Dream Snowboard Cross]], [[Dream Short Track]], and [[Dream Bobsleigh]], Lightning can strike every opponent, knocking them over and causing them to lose speed; in the Individual version of [[Dream Ski Jumping (Individual)|Dream Ski Jumping]], Lightning can strike every opponent and cause them to lose height, speed, 10 points and a [[Bonus panel]], though one can defend against it using a [[Shield (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Barrier]]; in the [[Dream Gliding (Individual)|Individual]] and [[Dream Gliding (Team)|Team]] versions of Dream Gliding, Lightning can strike all opponents and knock them out of the sky. In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020]]'', Thunder is in the [[Dream Racing]] event, where using it affects all opponents, causing them to spin out of control and lose some of their [[Ring (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Rings]].

| |
| {{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Lightning Bolt}}
| |
| [[File:Lightning SSB4 Wii U.jpg|thumb|Lightning in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'']]
| |
| Lightning appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as an item. The item usually shrinks all of the player's opponents. However, at times it might backfire and shrink the player who grabbed the item. Lastly, there is a small chance that the item makes the opponents giant-sized, as if they all touched a [[Super Mushroom]]. As with the Super Mushroom and [[Poison Mushroom]], fighters only have to touch the item to activate its effects.
| |
| | |
| Fighters who get shrunk by the Lightning will be set to the exact same size as when they touch a Poison Mushroom (0.5x normal size), but their direct attacks deal 0.7x their normal damage, instead of 0.6x. Also, if players become giant from the Lightning, they will be much bigger than when they grab a Super Mushroom (2.4x normal size, instead of 1.7x), and their direct attacks will deal 1.84x their normal damage.
| |
| | |
| Additionally, the Lightning item is depicted as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', and as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. In [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], the sticker can be used on any fighter to boost their [[smashwiki:Electric|electric]] attacks by 4 points.

| |
| Lightning makes a brief appearance in volume 6 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. While struggling, [[Mario]] receives this item and then uses it to pulverize [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] and win the race. It is also used in another chapter to shrink the [[Mega Mole]] that Mario was fighting, giving it the size of a regular [[Monty Mole]].
