Lightning

Lightning is a contestant on Battle for BFDI. He was a recommended character that could have joined Battle for Dream Island Again, but with only 93 votes, placed 46th, he did not have enough votes to join and was flung to the Locker of Losers.

Lightning later appeared in No More Snow!, along with Cloudy, striking a tree and making it fall over and crush Pin, killing her.

Lightning's IDFB redesign is more simplistic and shorter.

Personality
Lightning is a feisty killer who enjoys zapping people, in particular, he zapped Flower three times., even if he feels some remorse. He affiliates with rude and other killers such as Snowball and Fanny. His voice is similar to Liy and Ruby's. He does also not take orders from others, like Pencil telling him to zap Flower. He also appears to enjoy/require clarification of the challenges.

Stapy
In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Lightning asks Stapy and Marker if they want to be friends, to which Marker declines. Lightning mistakenly calls Stapy "Staply".

Snowball
In multiple BFB episodes, Snowball and Lightning have a fairly friendly connection, the reason is because of Snowball asking Lightning how many people he killed. He also is cheered on by Snowball when he wants to help his team soar above, in BFB 5, where he also gets obliterated by Four.

Bell
In BFB 4, Bell asks lightning to zap her string so all the climbers get off. Lightning asks if she is sure, to which Bell says yes. Lightning proceeds to zap her.

Flower
Flower hates Lightning, the reason why is because Lightning keeps zapping her. In BFB 3, Flower says that she's had enough of him talking about clarification, in which Lightning decided to zap her.

Kills
Dozens of other people have also been killed by Lightning, according to him in Getting Teardrop to Talk.

Deaths

 * 1) Fortunate Ben: Obliterated by Four.

Electrocutions
These may or may not kill people, they might just knock them out.

Trivia

 * He also thinks it's sad.
 * However, in BFB, he hasn't killed anyone yet, just zapped people.
 * Lightning is the only legless member of iance.
 * Running gag: After Four states what the contest is, Lightning asks Snowball, "so to clarify, (whatever the challenge is)".
 * However, in Why Would You Do This on a Swingset, he asks it to Flower, and then zaps her after she says she's had enough of that.
 * Lightning and Stapy are the only contestants with arms but no legs.
 * However, Lightning can fly, while Stapy can't.
 * Lightning's arms may be retractable as they disappear in some scenes. However, this may be a goof.
 * In Today's Very Special Episode, it is revealed that if Lightning electrocutes Bell, he can electrocute anybody touching her string as well.
 * It is interesting to note that he electrocutes Liy this way as well, and they are the only two contestants who are voiced by Sabrina Barba.
 * Lightning’s voting pose in Getting Teardrop to Talk was the same pose in The Reveal.
 * Lightning may be related to the recommended character Lightning Bolt.
 * Lightning had zapped 16 times so far (currently).
 * Lightning, Taco, and Flower are currently the only contestants to appear in two Season 4 thumbnails,with 2 so far.
 * Lightning was the only iance member to not be startled by the pedestals shooting up from the ground at Cake at Stake.
 * However, this is most likely due to Lightning not even touching the ground.
 * Lightning is one of the five contestants to have stopped to say its catchphrase, the others are 8-Ball, Cloudy, Fanny and Needle.
