Dragon Thunder (ドラゴンサンダー Doragon Sandā) is a technique used by Rage Shenron.

Overview[]

Rage Shenron shoots beams of electricity from the fingers of his slime construct. For Syn Shenron, he calls lightning from the nearby clouds or uses the spikes on his back to electrocute his enemies.

Usage[]

Dragon Thunder is first used by Rage Shenron on Goku, stunning him fairly well. He also used it briefly on Super Saiyan 4 Goku, but to no effect.[3]

Rage Shenron's Dragon Thunderclap

This same attack is used on Super Saiyan 4 Goku by Omega Shenron, except it is shot down from the sky as a lightning bolt which sends the air born Goku crashing down like a lightning bolt, but still not affecting him very much.[4]

Omega Shenron also uses this attack in a painful variation on Vegeta, where he extends his spikes long enough to stab Vegeta right through his left shoulder and electrocutes him, nearly killing him.[5]

Variations[]

Video Game Appearances[]

In Budokai 3 and Infinite World, this attack is simply Omega Shenron calling down thunder from the sky just like the first time he used it on Super Saiyan 4 Goku, but he will also be able to store the energy in his body. He can wait to use it later, then calling the thunder down on the opponent.

In the Budokai Tenkaichi series, Omega Shenron's second version of the technique is used as his Rush Attack.

In Dragon Ball Heroes, it is Rage Shenron's Super Attack in his Giant Form.

In Ultimate Tenkaichi, Omega Shenron's second version of the technique is used as his Rush Attack. However, unlike in the series, the spikes impale the opponent on more than just one shoulder. Ultimate Shenron uses the first version of the technique during a boss fight in the Hero Mode.

In Xenoverse, it is one of Omega Shenron's Super Skills. Due to Omega Shenron's spikes being used as part of the technique, it is among the few techniques in the game that cannot be learned, nor obtained by the Future Warrior

In Dragon Ball Fusions, it is a Special Move used by Omega Shenron, Kadoola, Shabbet, and Zalutz. It is fired from the user's finger similar to Rage Shenron's version.

In Xenoverse 2, it returns as one of Omega Shenron's Super Skills, though once again cannot be obtained by the Future Warrior do to the nature in which it is performed.

In Dragon Ball Legends, Omega Shenron (DBL-EVT-38U) performs Dragon Thunder as the finisher for his Arcane of the Shadow Dragons Ultimate Move Arts.

Trivia[]

  • In the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball GT, this attack is called "Dragon Thunderclap" when used by Rage Shenron and the first time by Omega Shenron. The other time Omega Shenron uses this technique, he says only "Dragon Thunder" and adds the impaling of his victim.
