ThunderMan.EXE

ThunderMan.EXE is a electric NetNavi operated by Raoul, and can surround his enemies with clouds to hamper their movements.

Games
In MegaMan Battle Network 2, MegaMan is forced to defeat ThunderMan in order to access the Netopian net and retrieve Lan's stolen passport. In Battle Network 3, he is a participant in the N1 Tournament, though MegaMan doesn't fight him. In Battle Network 4, ThunderMan is a random boss in the final tournament. MegaMan falls under the effects of an evil curse, and must retrieve a set of programs that will allow ThunderMan to lift it. ThunderMan gives MegaMan a Double Soul after this.

Abilities

 * ThunderMan starts the battle with three clouds, one on each row in BN2, and one large cloud in BN4. In BN2, if the clouds are obstructed for too long a time, it will strike in a + formation.
 * Stormcloud Thunder: In BN2, ThunderMan summons thunderballs in the clouds. When the clouds line up with the player, they release the thunderball. In BN4, the cloud automatically releases a paralyzing thunderball as it lines up with MegaMan whilst circulating the battlefield.
 * Thunder Bolt: ThunderMan summons lightning that tracks the player and strikes down on him.
 * Elec Beam: ThunderMan jumps to the front of his area and fires an elec beam down the entire row. Used in BN4.

MegaMan NT Warrior Axess
Raoul and ThunderMan appear again in Electopia to get revenge on BrightMan.EXE. At the same time, Darkloids attack the Net, taking advantage of Lan and MegaMan.EXE's injuries. Raoul and ThunderMan team up with Raika and SearchMan.EXE to defeat them. SearchMan and ThunderMan have to team up to fight SwordMan.EXE, ColdMan.EXE, BrightMan.EXE and StarMan.EXE. Although they are outnumbered, SearchMan and ThunderMan manage to defeat the Darkloids and delete BrightMan.EXE. He remains in Electopia for a short time after this. During that time, Lan has grown increasingly powerful but also more arrogant. To try to right that, Chaud and Raoul pretend to be Nebula agents and Netbattle Lan and MegaMan. Their battle is interrupted by real Darkloids and ThunderMan gives MegaMan his Double Soul to defeat them. After that, Raoul and ThunderMan leave the country.

Trivia
