Thunder

Thunder is a powerful move used in the Pokémon video game series. It debuted in the generation 1 games, which consists of Pokémon Red and Blue (and Pokémon Yellow). The move is clearly an electric type move, and a very powerful one with a ranking of 120. In the generation 1 series, Thunder had a 9.8% of paralyzing the opponent. Thunder was a move that Pikachu and Pichu could perform in the Super Smash Bros. series, which consists of Super Smash Bros. (Pikachu), Super Smash Bros. Melee (Pikachu, Pichu), and Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Pikachu).

In the Super Smash Bros. series, the move would bring a bolt of lightning down from above, damaging any opponent above you. Pichu's Thunder move was slightly different, as it would harm the Pokémon if it touched it, while this wasn't the case with its evolved form.
