- "Unleashes an electric tornado great for reaching enemies in high places!"
- ―Alia, describing X's Volt Tornado, Mega Man X7
Volt Tornado, also known as Voltornado (ボルトルネード Borutorunēdo) in Japan, is the Special Weapon X and Axl receive when Tornado Tonion is defeated in Mega Man X7. Both create an electrified spiral that rolls forward after a few seconds (in Axl's case, he needs to equip the Ray Gun to use it). While not possessing the vertical reach of Zero's Raijinshou, this weapon's horizontal range makes it effective for clearing out groups of enemies. X's charged version surrounds him in a special electric field that generates Life Energy while in contact with enemies.
This weapon is Splash Warfly's weakness, and is also very useful against Red.
