Thunder Flash Attack (サンダーフラッシュ Sandā Furasshu) is a powerful fire-based attack taught to Pikkon by West Kai as his ultimate technique.
Overview[]
First, Pikkon sways his arms around his body as he produces a blue flame-like aura. Then, he draws his hands out to his sides and closes them into fists as he crosses his arms on his chest. Finally, Pikkon draws his fists together in front of him and fires a huge storm of flames at the opponent, inflicting a massive amount of damage through a fiery explosion. It is a technique that appears to require a heavy amount of focus, as Pikkon must maintain his position in order to perform it.
Usage and Power[]
Pikkon uses this attack a few times during his match with Goku in the Other World Tournament. After being repeatedly blasted and injured, however, Goku eventually discovers the weakness of the Thunder Flash Attack: Pikkon cannot move while he is performing the technique. Using this to his advantage, Goku uses his Instant Transmission to teleport away from the Thunder Flash Attack and appears beside Pikkon to blast him out of the ring with a Super Kamehameha.
