Thunder Bolt (item)
The Thunder Bolt is an attack item in the Paper Mario series, first appearing in Paper Mario and returning in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. On use, this item summons a bolt of lightning that inflicts five lightning-elemental damage to a single enemy and, in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the description makes the claim that this item has a chance of stunning an enemy, however, this is untrue. If it is used on lightning-related enemies such as Ruff Puffs, the enemies will be healed. It has a stronger equivalent, Thunder Rage, which deals the same amount of damage but targets all enemies. Thunder Bolts also appear in Paper Mario: Sticker Star in the Battle Spin. If three of them are lined up, the dizzy status effect is inflicted on Mario's enemies.
Thunder Bolts in Paper Mario appear in the following locations:
- On top of a block in Pleasant Path.
- On sale at Little Mouser's Shop for 5 coins each.
- In a ? Block in the very east of the Blue Station area of Shy Guy's Toy Box.
- Dropped by Forest Fuzzies and Spy Guys.
Thunder Bolts in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door appear in the following locations:
- On sale at Westside Goods of Rogueport (10 coins each) and the souvenir shop of Glitzville (12 coins each).
- Dropped by Clefts, Spinias, Spanias, Crazee Dayzees, and Dark Puffs.[1]
