A '''Thunder Lakitu'''<ref | A '''Thunder Lakitu'''<ref>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide. [[media:SMW2 Guide 128.jpg|Page 128]].</ref> is a [[Lakitu]] that shoots out a ball of energy, setting the ground on fire. This fire moves out in a disappearing wave shape. They make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' in the [[level]], [[BLIZZARD!!!]]. These pink Lakitus make a loud noise and the screen flashes when they attack, so the player can detect when they are about to attack. Thunder Lakitus reappear in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', where they are only found in the level [[Bandit Valley]]. | ||

In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', the Thunder Lakitu has a major appearance in the [[DK Jungle Court]]. They are able to clear the field from [[Klaptrap]]s, by burning them with lightning bolts in the gimmick courts mode. Here, their skin and shell are that of a normal Lakitu. | |||

*In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime | *In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'' (which predated the existence of Thunder Lakitus by 9 years), a Lakitu uses several weather-based features from his [[Lakitu's Cloud|cloud]] to wake up his [[Spiny Egg|Spiny's egg]]s. When he uses lightning, his cloud gains a Raijin-like set of drums, giving him a noticeable resemblance to a Thunder Lakitu. | ||
