Wildbolt Storm (Japanese: かみなりあらし Thunderous Storm) is a damage-dealing Electric-type move introduced in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. It is the signature move of Thundurus.

Effect

Generation VIII

Wildbolt Storm inflicts damage and has a 30% chance of paralyzing the target.

Generation IX

Wildbolt Storm's PP and power were changed to 10 and 100, respectively. It now has a 20% chance of paralyzing each target. In a battle with multiple opponents, Wildbolt Storm will target all adjacent opponents.

When used during rain, Wildbolt Storm bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.
