It is:
==Generation I==
* [[TM45]] in Generation I.
* [[TM73]] from [[Generation IV]] to {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, and in [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]].

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Thunder Wave has 100% accuracy and {{status|Paralysis|paralyzes}} the target.


Thunder Wave can't affect an opponent that already has a major status ailment, and will not
Thunder Wave takes types into consideration, so it cannot usually affect {{type|Ground}} Pokémon. This will take type changes into account, such as if Thunder Wave is affected by {{a|Normalize}} (which would make {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon immune to it).
work against ground types.


In Stadium, Thunder Wave can't affect an opponent that has a substitute.
In the Generation I handheld games only, Thunder Wave can affect a target behind a {{OBP|substitute|doll}}.


===Generation II===
In the Generation II [[core series]] games, when an in-game opponent outside of the {{gdis|Battle Tower|II}} uses Thunder Wave, the move has a 25% chance to fail.


=Learnset=
===Generations III to V===
==[[Generation I]]==
Thunder Wave can be used as the second move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining 2 bonus appeal points if {{m|Charge}} was used in the previous turn. It can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing {{m|Hex}} and {{m|Smelling Salts}} to give extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.
<div style="{{Learnset section box style}}">
 
Ground-type Pokémon holding a [[Ring Target]] can be affected by Thunder Wave.
 
===Generation VI onwards===
Thunder Wave can no longer paralyze {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, due to them being immune to paralysis.
 
===Generation VII onwards===
Thunder Wave's accuracy was lowered to 90%.
 
If powered up by an [[Electrium Z]] into Z-Thunder Wave, the user's {{stat|Special Defense}} stat is raised by one stage.

* In the English [[dub]] of ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'', [[Kimono Girl|Satsuki]] commanded her {{p|Jolteon}} to use Thunder Wave. This is a dubbing error, as in the original Japanese version, she instead told Jolteon to use {{m|Zap Cannon}}.
* In the English dub of ''[[AG016|The Winner by a Nosepass]]'', [[Roxanne]] commanded her {{TP|Roxanne|Nosepass}} to use Thunder Wave instead of Zap Cannon as in the original Japanese version. This was corrected later on in the episode.
* In ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]'', [[Wattson]] mentioned that his {{p|Magnemite}} knows Thunder Wave. However, it has never been seen using the move.
* In the English dub of ''[[AG059|Manectric Charge]]'', Wattson commanded his {{TP|Wattson|Manectric}} to use Thunder Wave twice. In the original Japanese version, the latter command was for {{m|Shock Wave}} instead.
* In the English dub of ''[[DP176|Coming Full-Festival Circle!]]'', [[Zoey]] commanded her {{p|Mismagius}} to use Thunder Wave. This is a dubbing error, as in the original Japanese version, the commanded move was Shock Wave.
* In ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', [[Ren]] commanded his Magnemite, [[Francois]], to use Thunder Wave, but it was restricted due to a wild {{AP|Gengar}} having tied its body up with cables.

Thunder Wave (Japanese: でんじは Electromagnetic Wave) is a non-damaging Electric-type move introduced in Generation I.

It is:

Effect

Generation I

Thunder Wave has 100% accuracy and paralyzes the target.

Thunder Wave takes types into consideration, so it cannot usually affect Ground-type Pokémon. This will take type changes into account, such as if Thunder Wave is affected by Normalize (which would make Ghost-type Pokémon immune to it).

In the Generation I handheld games only, Thunder Wave can affect a target behind a substitute.

Generation II

In the Generation II core series games, when an in-game opponent outside of the Battle Tower uses Thunder Wave, the move has a 25% chance to fail.

Generations III to V

Thunder Wave can be used as the second move of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining 2 bonus appeal points if Charge was used in the previous turn. It can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing Hex and Smelling Salts to give extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.

Ground-type Pokémon holding a Ring Target can be affected by Thunder Wave.

Generation VI onwards

Thunder Wave can no longer paralyze Electric-type Pokémon, due to them being immune to paralysis.

Generation VII onwards

Thunder Wave's accuracy was lowered to 90%.

If powered up by an Electrium Z into Z-Thunder Wave, the user's Special Defense stat is raised by one stage.

Generation VIII

Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Trivia

  • Thunder Wave is the only status move that takes the type chart into account.
    • Consequently, it is the only status move that cannot hit Ground-type Pokémon (even when other status moves are affected by Electrify).
    • In Generations II and III, Glare also took the type chart into account.
