'''Thunder''', '''Thundara''', and '''Thundaga''' are a series of [[magic]] introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. They utilize the element of Lightning, and are associated with the [[Lightning]] material. Thunder spells summon lightning bolts from the sky to rain down on enemies, dealing {{c|Thunder|element}}-type damage.

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', '''Thundaza''', also translated as '''Thundaja''', appears as an even more powerful tier.

[[Donald Duck]] casts a Thunder spell to wake up a sleeping [[Goofy]].

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Thunder is offensive magic that can be used by [[Sora]] and [[Donald Duck|Donald]]. Thunder calls down bolts of lightning to strike the target area. It is useful for hitting a group of enemies a distance. The higher-tier Thundara and Thundaga call down greater numbers of more powerful lightning bolts. Thunder costs 1 [[MP]] to use.

[[Genie]] may cast Thunder as part of his [[Showtime]] ability.

Thunder magic can be used to activate certain objects in the field, including the exposed wires in the [[Third District]] that activate the platforms inside the [[Gizmo Shop]], certain kind of flowers in Wonderland, and the stone tablet on the upper level of the {{c|Entrance Hall|HB}} that activates the moving platforms.<!--anything else?-->

In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Thunder magic works much the same way as in ''0.2''. Thunder, Thundara, and Thundaga are magic spells that unleash a cluster of lightning strikes at the targeted enemy, dealing {{c|Thunder|element}} damage to all enemies in the surrounding area. Enemies hit by Thunder magic will be inflicted with the Electrified status effect, with Thunder inflicting it for 5 seconds, Thundara for 7 seconds, and Thundaga and Thundaza for 10 seconds. The area and intensity of the lightning strikes varies depending on the tier used. Thunder consumes 14 MP, Thundara 20 MP, and Thundaga 28 MP. Repeatedly casting Thundaga in battle can result in the Thundaza [[Situation Command]], which summons a larger and more intense thunderstorm.
