Thundora (バクライジン Bakuraijin) is an Evolved form Spectrobe of the Corona Property. It is the Evolved form of the Child form Spectrobe Thunba, and evolves from the Adult Thundor. The Evolved form Spectrobe Windora is its "sister" Spectrobe.

In the original Spectrobes, Thundora can only be obtained through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, the only Spectrobe in the entire series that can be obtained through this method. In this game, Thundora is a Spectrobe that only has an Evolved form; Spectrobes: Beyond the Portals gives it its Child and Adult forms.

Appearance

Thundora is based upon Raijin, the Shinto god of thunder. It has three bell-like rings on its back and thunderbolts that protrude through many parts of its body- most notably the huge bolts on its forearms. It also has tiger-like stripes on its arms and legs. The rings on its back are especially reminiscent of the thunder god from ancient Japanese mythology. The Japanese kanji "雷" (rai, meaning "thunder") is printed on its shoulders.
