Lakithunder, (called ボスジュゲム Bosujugemu in Japan), is the seventh boss appearing in New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS.
He appears as the boss in World 7, meaning that either he or Monty Tank of World 6 must be defeated in order for access to World 8. (Or if you know how, you can use a cannon in World 5. Hint: At the Ghost Mansion, find a hidden block.)
Lakithunder attacks by shooting lightning bolts at Mario or dropping Spinies. He also tries to attack Mario or Luigi by swooping downwards. This is the chance the two get to pounce on Lakithunder and attack him. The more pounced on, the more aggressive his lightning bolt attacks get, along with a larger amount of Spinies thrown down at Mario or Luigi. He must be pounced on three times to be defeated and surrender his key. (Tip: Jump on him once, then Ground Pound him the next time. Also can be used on other enemies in this game.)

Trivia
- Lakithunder appears to be related to Giga Lakitu.
- Due to the similar grey clouds and the lightning bolts coming out of the clouds while attacking Princess Peach's Castle, Lakithunder could have attacked the castle, due to his similar traits.
