In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', the Thunder Lakitu has a major appearance in the [[DK Jungle Court]]. They are able to clear the field from [[Klaptrap]]s, by burning them with lightning bolts in the gimmick courts mode. Here, their skin is that of a normal Lakitu. | In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', the Thunder Lakitu has a major appearance in the [[DK Jungle Court]].

==Trivia== | |||
*Thunder Lakitus may be based on the Japanese thunder god, [[wikipedia:Raijin|Raijin]] who also wears a set of drum-like ornaments on his back, has red skin and can control lightning. | |||
*In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'' (which predated the existence of Thunder Lakitus by years), a Lakitu uses several weather-based features from his [[Lakitu's Cloud|cloud]] to wake up his [[Spiny Egg]]s. When he uses lightning, his cloud gains a Raijin-like set of drums, giving him a noticeable resemblance to a Thunder Lakitu. | |||
