Power Blitz (パワーブリッツ) is an energy wave technique used by Android 18 and Android 17.
Overview
The user draws his/her hand back and charges a swirling pink/blue energy sphere. He/she then brings his/her hand forward and fires the sphere in the form of an energy wave at the opponent, inflicting a great amount of damage.
Future 18 fires a second Power Blitz at Future Trunks
Future Android 18 and Future Android 17 use this attack to destroy a few buildings during their destructive rampage in a city. Future Android 18 later uses it a few times during her and her brother's last battle with Future Trunks, though the Super Saiyan easily dodges the blasts.
