Lightning is an area where the climate was once calm, but the air pollution created a perpetual lightning zone. This extreme air pollution continues to destroy the ozone layer. Now the frequent bolts of electricity which hammer down from the sky are harnessed and put to use by innovative power companies. The total power generated in the efficient recycling facilities exceeds 10 million gigawatts. The output is so great, in fact, that Lightning now exports its excess power to neighboring planets.[1]

Appearance in the games

Lightning only appears in F-Zero GXF-Zero GP Legend (game), and F-Zero Climax where it is apparently on the outskirts of Mute City, according to the former.

F-Zero GX/AX

Four tracks total can be found for this course. Loop Cross contains loops and twists but isn't all that hard; though you will find yourself on the ceiling above the finish line. Half Pipe is a very tricky course in which the stage consists of a half-pipe track. Thunder Road is tricky with 90-degree turns.

F-Zero GP Legend

File:LightningPlanet.jpg

Lightning's planet

Volute (only in F-Zero GP Legend) has a nasty jump which must be hit at an angle in order to survive it. All of the courses in GP Legend are filled with Speed Boosts.

F-Zero Climax

In Climax, each of the circuits has multiple routes, so players must plan their strategy if they should place either at a higher rank, or wind up in the back of the pack; the magnets and angle jump plates should be cautioned as well.

Anime

Lightning has appeared twice in the anime: the 1st time was in Lap 30, Only One Falcon, we see a track that's based on a Lightning circuit; while the other, Lap 45,Zoda's Other Ambition, where there's a sequence in which Rick escapes from Black Shadow's/Don Genie's death traps. And also having a Dark Million base as well.

Trivia

  • In F-Zero GX, Lightning appears in all odd-numbered cups. The Ruby Cup is the 1st cup, the Emerald Cup is the 3rd cup, and the AX cup is the 5th cup.
    • Coincidentally, in those cups, Lightning appears as the 2nd-to-last track.
  • In F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, a track called Tenth Zone East is similar to Lightning.
  • Lightning, in GP Legend, has been proven that it has its own planet, instead of being on Earth like so many fans believed.
