The '''Thunderhand''' is one of the two types of Hand Power that is used by [[Luigi]] during the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', being the opposite of the [[Firebrand]], which is used by [[Mario]]. Luigi is taught this power by [[Firebrand and Thunderhand|Thunderhand]] in the [[Thunder Palace]], and is taught an [[Tickle|advanced technique]] by the [[Jellyfish Sisters]], allowing Luigi to shock Mario so he can be stuck to him and move slower while facing one direction. This can be used to pass through slow-moving spiked barrels and activate [[Boo Statue]]s by moving into them facing the opposite direction. In the case when Mario [[Pump Mario|fills himself with water]], Luigi can tickle him so he can spit out all the water on the ground, which makes certain sprouts in the ground grow. To use this move, Luigi must be the lead brother, the player should switch to the Thunderhand command using {{button|gba|R}}/{{button|gba|L}}, hold down the {{button|gba|B}} and release it when Luigi fully charges the thunderbolt, which can power [[Conductor]]s.

In battle, the Thunderhand can be used offensively against enemies, where the player must press {{button|gba|B}} when Luigi fully charges the thunderbolt. Failure in doing so results in Luigi shocking himself and the move deals less damage. In some cases, enemies will have a weakness to or can only hurt by the Thunderhand, such as [[Sharpea]]s and [[Troopea]]s. Other enemies (like [[Bowletta]]'s dark form and [[Mom Piranha]]'s blue form) absorb the attack and get healed instead. Mario and Luigi can also use the [[Thunder Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]], which involves Luigi charging up a thunderbolt, jumping on Mario and launching it downwards at enemies, [[DEF-Down|lowering their defense]]. It also has a [[Advanced Command|more powerful version]], Super Thunder Bros., however it consumes more [[Bros. Point]]s in the remake. Here, Mario will [[Luigi Dunk|burrow Luigi underground]] with his [[hammer]] so Luigi can move beneath a single enemy to perform an electrified uppercut, which can also [[POW-Down|lower their attack power]].

Also in the remake, Thunderhand can be used to perform a [[First Strike]]. If this is done, enemies may become [[Dizzy]] at the start of the battle.
