Lightning Mole

The Lightning Mole is one of Blanka's special attacks, exclusive to the OMEGA Mode in Ultra Street Fighter IV.

**Input**
Ultra Street Fighter IV	+

Description

Blanka rises in a pillar of electricity from underground.

Executed by performing a Shoryuken motion and pressing punch, Blanka envelops himself in electricity and disappears into the ground before emerging in a pillar of lightning, taking the opponent with him. The distance emerged is determined by the punch button pressed.

The EX Special version auto-targets the opponent and finishes with a headbutt.

Tactics

Blanka cannot be hit while he is underground, making it useful for punishing zoning attacks.

Trivia

This is one of only two teleport attacks that deal damage, the other being Judgement Saber from Street Fighter V.
