'''Zapple''' is a lightning spell introduced in {{DQ3}}. It is a mid-tier of the Lightning spell family between [[Zap]], [[Kazap]], and [[Kazapple]].


==Localization history==
==Localization history==
The Japanese spell ''Raidein'' was previously localized as ''[[Zap]]'' for the English adaptations of the series, until the localization of ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker]]'' in 2007, which featured a lightning spell weaker than Raidein. This spell, ''Dein'', is akin to [[Sizz]] and [[Crack]] in terms of power and how early a character learns it in an adventure, bumping Raidein up to being a mid-tier spell. Because the English word [[Zap]] cannot be simplified as it's Easter-equivalent was, the localization department instead opted to have the word Zapple refer to Raidein in any game in which Dein is present.
This spell was originally named [[Zap]]. However, with the arrival of a lower-tier ''Dein'' spell, they moved the name Zap to that one, and renamed ''Raidein'' Zapple.
 
==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
Zap is learned by {{Hero 3}} at level 26. The spell will damage a single enemy with between 70~90 damage, and will cost 8 {{MP}} to cast. [[Ortega]] also uses the spell in his fight with [[King Hydra]].
 
==={{DQ3HD}}===
Zapple is learned by the {{Hero 3}} at level 24 if his or her wisdom exceeds 94 points. It costs 8 {{MP}} and deals up to 91~117 damage to one foe.
 
==={{DQ4}}===
Zap is learned by the {{Hero 4}} at level 25, though his tutor in [[Hidden Valley]] planned to teach him the spell sooner. The spell functions identically to its [[Aliahan]] counterpart, though it costs only 4 {{MP}} to cast.


For older titles that were localized after the introduction of Dein, such as {{Dragon Quest VI}}, [[Zap]] continues to be used for Raidein to adhere to the three-stage naming convention for spells seen in [[Square Enix]]'s translation process as there is no intermediate spell to add the "-le" suffix to between [[Zap]] and [[Kazap]].
Zap can be used by [[togre]]s for 70~90 damage.
 
==={{DQ5}}===
Zap's range improves from this installment. Specifically, the spell conjures a small lightning storm that targets all enemies instead of a single bolt. The spell costs a mere 6 {{MP}} to cast, and deals between 70 and 90 damage.

==={{DQ6}}===
Zap is learned by the {{Hero 6}} after his awakening. Other characters can learn it by advancing to rank 3 of the {{Hero V}} vocation. It behaves as it did in the previous game.
 
==={{DQ7}}===
Zap is learned when a character reaches rank 4 of the {{Hero V}} vocation, rank 8 of the [[Delusionist (vocation)|Delusionist]], and rank 5 of the [[Slaughtomaton (vocation)|Slaughtomaton]] {{MFamilies}} vocations. As expected, it behaves as it did two games ago.
 
It can be cast by the enemies [[nut knight]], [[ginormoose]], and [[togre]] for 70~90 damage.
 
==={{DQ8}}===
Zap is learned by investing 48 points into {{Eight}}'s Courage skill. The spell will jolt all enemies with 40~56 points of lightning damage, and will grows in power once {{Eight}}'s {{Wisdom}} surpasses 65. The spell will deal 72~88 damage (barring resistances) once the character's {{Wisdom}} reaches 150.
 
It is also used by the enemies [[Empyrea]], [[Statue of Hero]], and [[Head of state]] for 56~72 damage.

The {{Hero 11}} can learn Zapple for 12 skill points by steeling himself with the {{Luminary}} panel in his character builder after it has been expanded in the second act. It is a hidden panel, requiring at least four of the surrounding skills to be learned first. It costs 22 {{MP}} to cast and will deal 146~166 damage to a group of enemies, with the maximum damage hitting for 314~344 at 244 magical might.

Zapple deals 70~90 damage for 10 {{MP}}. To learn the spell, a monster needs to have the natural capacity to do so if it hasn't been bred into it, as well as being at level 15 with a wisdom stat of 130.
