Like electric healing, since everyone knows that fifty thousand volts are just the thing for a collapsed lung, and when you make electricity into little restraining manacles; which didn't make a lot of sense when the Superfriends did it either.

Linkara lampshading this trope in the Sonic Live review.

The lightning strikes, cracking the night
I'm not the same anymore
