==Trivia==
*Compared to Blast, this ability will deal more damage on critical hits at all levels, assuming they're at the same ability level and that element power bonuses are not accounted for. Non-critical hits will deal less damage due to the lower base Power scaling. The reason Arc Flash deals more damage is due to a glitch which causes it's Crit. Damage bonus to be significantly higher than Blast's bonus. If the glitch would be fixed, then this ability would deal more damage than Arc Flash at level 2 and above.

*If element unique abilities and evolutions are also used (Apocalypse for Fire, Conductivity and Static Potential for Lightning), then this ability will deal even more damage compared to Blast, because of the Lightning Strain having more options compared to Fire Strain.
