'''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==

~~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 Eastern 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.

~~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]]~~. ~~An exception is ''~~[[~~Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai~~]]~~'', where ''Raidein'' is translated as "Zapple" in~~ the ~~manga and its anime adaptation, but "Zap"~~ in ~~spinoff media (which extends to derived techniques like~~ [[~~Raidein Strash~~]]).

==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]].

~~==Appearances==~~

==={{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.

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.
