History FanonPokedex / Thundurus

A heavily anthropomorphized version of Thundurus with a signature straw hat was a common sight in the cinema of certain non-Unovan countries; this eventually led to that version of the legendary becoming a heavily recurring character in a series of [[MortalKombat bloody fighting games]]. Additionally, he was the namesake of a sidekick of a minor antagonist in a [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII popular RPG]] from a long-running series of such.

Thundurus closely resembles the two other members of its trio, [[{{FanonPokedex/Tornadus}} Tornadus]] and [[{{FanonPokedex/Landorus}} Landorus]], being a little over two meters tall and having a similar ogre-like upper body and cloud-like lower body. His skin is electric-blue, with darker blue spots that resemble typhoons and a patch of similar dark blue on its chest. He has a spiky white moustache above his small mouth and a long, jagged plume of white hair, resembling a thunderbolt. He has a large single horn on its head the same color as its spots, and bulging eyes with yellow scleras. His tail, which extends from the cloud wreathing his lower body, resembles a string of spiked black beads, from which Thundurus fires lightning bolts.

A long – running legend among Unovan children is that if they don’t cover up their belly buttons when trying to sleep through a thunderstorm, Thundurus will steal them and then [[EdEddnEddy eat them]].

Legends tell of less successful ventures as well, though – such as trying to flirt with female humans or Pokemon. Another describes an incident where Thundurus “stole the sun,” which may be derived from a historical conflict with a [[{{FanonPokedex/Volcarona}} Volcarona]].
