The Lightning Bolt (サンダー, sandā) is an item from the Mario Kart series.

In the Super Smash Bros. series Edit

The Lightning Bolt appears as an item in Brawl. The Lightning Bolt in this game is most likely based off of the Mario Kart: Double Dash!! one. When used, it will shrink everybody to minimal size except the one that used it, similar to its function in the Mario Kart series. However, the item can backfire as well, resulting in the player who picked up the item grow small instead or making the other characters size increase (similar to the effects of the Super Mushroom, except that it's twice as effective). Unlike most other items, the Lightning Bolt requires a character to simply make contact with it in order to gain its effect. On occasion, if one uses the lightning bolt on another, the one who got hit by the bolt will grow twice the original size of himself/herself instead of shrinking.

Trophy descriptionEdit

The Lightning Bolt also appears as a collectible trophy.

An item that goes off the moment you touch it. It may shrink every other character on the screen. Tiny players suffer a reduction in their attack power and become easier to send flying. After a set amount of time, all the characters will return to their normal sizes. In the Mario Kart series, all players but the item user shrunk, and got flattened when run over.

Transform GlitchEdit

If a character uses the Lightning Bolt on Zelda or Sheik and Zelda/Sheik Transforms, the glitch makes the size of the Lightning Bolt user permanent until Zelda/Sheik gets KO'd or grabs another size-changing item.
