Thunder Rage
A Thunder Rage is an item in the Paper Mario series first appearing in Paper Mario. It deals five lightning-elemental damage to all enemies on-screen, and acts like a stronger version of Thunder Bolt, an item that hurts only one enemy. The Thunder Rage appears to be upside down, as opposed to its upright position in later Paper Mario games. It can be created by giving Tayce T. a Dried Fruit and a Volt Shroom.
It reappears in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. The description claims that this item has a small chance of stunning an enemy, but this is incorrect. However, it can give enemies the POW-Down status if the latter was hacked. It can also be cooked by mixing a Shooting Star with a Point Swap. However, if used on lightning related enemies such as Ruff Puffs, they will gain HP.
When used in Super Paper Mario, the player must first shake the Wii Remote to gain power. After that, lightning will strike on-screen enemies, dealing 12 damage to them. It can be cooked to make an Electro Pop.
In volume 26 of Super Mario-Kun one Yoshi in the Fearsome 5 uses a Thunder Rage to defeat a White Magikoopa.
