Fusion Bolt (Japanese: クロスサンダー Cross Thunder) is a damage-dealing Electric-type move introduced in Generation V. Prior to Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, it was one of the signature moves of Zekrom.

Effect

Fusion Bolt inflicts damage. The base power of Fusion Bolt will double if another Pokémon uses Fusion Flare immediately before the Pokémon using Fusion Bolt, but only during that use. Likewise, it will double the power of Fusion Flare if Fusion Bolt is used immediately before the Pokémon using Fusion Flare, during that use. When Fusion Flare is used before this move is used, this move's animation display changes.

Description

Games Description

Zekrom


The user gives off blue electricity and forms a blue sphere around itself, then charges at the opponent.
Pokémon Method
User First Used In Notes
  The electric generator inside Zekrom's tail starts to spin and glow light blue with electricity. Zekrom's body then becomes surrounded in light blue electricity and large bolts of light blue electricity burst off its body. A violet forcefield then forms around Zekrom's body and it flies down and slams its body into the opponent. When the attack is complete, the generator in Zekrom's tail glows light blue for a tiny bit and it becomes surrounded in light blue sparks temporarily.

Trivia

  • Fusion Bolt has the highest index number of Generation V moves.
  • During a cutscene in Black Version 2, N's Zekrom uses Fusion Bolt to shatter Kyurem's Glaciate from a distance. In-battle, Fusion Bolt is a physical move; the battle animation shows Zekrom/Black Kyurem forming the attack around their body. However, it should be noted that the attack does not make contact, unlike most physical moves.
