Static Electricity (originally known as Static E!) is an attack used by several enemies in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its Nintendo Switch remake. The move is a blue, shimmering wave covering the screen with a synthed sound effect, which deals minor electrical damage to all targets, and cannot be blocked. In the remake, the move is depicted like an array of bolts, similar to Mallow's Thunderbolt, but covering the entire screen and not a specific target.

  • In the Virtual Console version of the original, the Static E! animation was altered to avoid potential seizures by removing the white flash, leaving it completely blue.[1]
