- Creates beams of electricity between fired bullets.
Notes
- Alistair's Ladder - If the player has Thunderclap, it fires two parallel balls of lightning with every shot.
- Battery Powered - If the player has Shock Rifle, it automatically regenerates ammo over time.
- Chain Lightning - If the player has Shadow Bullets, the range that Shock Bullets can connect bullets is increased, and lightning can connect to enemy bullets.

- Lotus Bloom - If the player has Laser Lotus, its magazine size increases to 32, its maximum ammo increases to 250, its fire rate greatly increases, and it deals half damage.
- Neo Tech, Yo - If the player has Mutation, its beams turn blue, it creates electrified water, and it grants electricity immunity while held.

- The beams of electricity can be used to damage the Chicken Flute chicken.
Trivia
- The name "Alistair, the Thunderbolt" is likely a reference to the Capcom games Devil May Cry and Viewtiful Joe. In both games, the name was ascribed to a character or weapon which had control over lightning.
- The sprite of the item resembles a Tazie, as opposed to Bouncy Bullets, which resemble Rubber Kin.
