The History Of Lightning Generation (Avatar)

Be Sure To Subscribe:

Lightning generation is an advanced sub-skill within firebending that allows the user to produce lightning by separating the positive and negative energies internally, before directing it up through the arm and out the fingertips. The technique is extremely precise and deadly and is referred to by some as the "cold blooded fire".

Waterbenders - bloodbending
Earthbenders - metalbending, lavabending
Firebenders - lightningbending
Airbenders - Flight

Azula creating a lightning ball is such an overlooked feat, honestly.

[RylHango]

Azula is a special case since she was a fire bender prodigy, I would have loved to find out what she was doing during TLOK

[bluesushi]

Everytime Azula generates and fires lightning

Zuko: no you

[ppwi]

I actually don’t like how lightning bending become so common in TLOK

[C-MOG]

"You're Zuko costume is pretty good, but your scar is on the wrong side."

[alvintang]

When you realise Iroh talking about separating the yin and yang energies is basically just saying there's a huge difference between the positive and negative charges, which basically makes lightning.

Zuko is the embodiment of an Uno Reverse Card, change my mind

[jojo_]

Lighting generation is the coolest thing

[FRISHR]

The Four Elements are basically:
Earth = Solid
Water = Liquid
Air = Gas
Fire/Lightning = Plasma

[cisarvitiate]

And where is Zuko’s grandson general Iroh? He also used lightning in the battle with the equalists

[ry_an.]

Don’t worry guys, “Eero” is just a mispronunciation. The commentator is learning

[Joeyblondewolf]

Mako gets a lot of hate for being a cheater but he was very talented

[quacky]

I feel really disappointed how LoK made so many things feel ordinary. Lightning was such a unique and special ability in ATLA, but LoK made it look like basically every other bender could do it :(

[khwistal]

As a kid, I tried copying Azulas movements and create lightning on my own

[dorothysargasso]

Maybe what happens in Azula's case is that she is so used to lightning bending that she can do it without having to concentrate and be calm. So she may be deraged, but there is a disassociated part in her that can create lightning whenever she wants.

[regularcommentator]

I wish lighting bending was a extremely difficult and rare skill to master like blood bending.but I feel like it got nerfed in the Korra.

[VigiONLYONYT]

Before : Only masters can lightning-bend.

After : My Grandpa Joe can lightning-bend.

[MadKingOfMadaya]

*_Incredibly rare skill for high generals and royals? There are like 100 peasants in Republic City using said incredibly rare skill to generate electricity_*

[aquelgamermexicano]

Keep in mind that lightning bending, at least at the top 3 most dangerous forms of bending (Lava and blood probably being more dangerous), is not only used for power plants, but it's also a minimum wage labor, since Mako didn't seem to really be making much money out of it...
