InThe Last Battle IV, during the final battle against theMasked Man,Lt. Surge used a Magnet to power up the moves ofRaikou. Notably, the Magnet that appeared was alodestone rather than a horseshoe magnet as seen in thegames, due to the fact that this chapter was released before the Magnet was even given a proper sprite.
