Thunder deals damage and has a 30% chance of paralyzing the target.

Electric type Pokémon, those with the ability Limber or those behind a Substitute cannot be paralyzed.

If used during rain, Thunder ignores accuracy. Conversely, if used during intense sunlight, its accuracy drops to 50%.

Thunder can hit Pokémon during the first stage of Bounce, Fly or Sky Drop.

When a Pokémon is holding Electrium Z and uses its Z-Power, Thunder turns into Gigavolt Havoc and has base power 185.
