"Mon pouvoir porte le nom de Catch the Rainbow. Je peux figer dans l'air les gouttes de pluie... que je touche. Comme si on marchait sur un arc-en-ciel."

- Blackmore

Catch the Rainbow (キャッチ・ザ・レインボー) est le Stand de Blackmore, figurant dans la septième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run. C'est un masque que porte Blackmore et lui donne la capacité de figer la pluie et de marcher sur les gouttes.

Apparence
Catch the Rainbow prend la forme d'un masque que Blackmore porte sur son visage quand il est activé. Le masque est formé de telle sorte qu'il arbore une arcade sourcillière courbe donnant un air troublé au masque. Les trous d'yeux sont des trous rectangulaires. Il n'a pas de nez et, dans la région de la bouche, il porte une rangée de cinq longues fentes verticales, parsemées de cinq trous.

De couleur claire, le masque est décoré par trois bandes colorées qui parcourent le masque de l'oeil gauche au côté droit du masque. Les bandes ont été pensées pour rappeller un arc-en-ciel sur un masque de hockey.

Catch the Rainbow est blanc avec des rayures bleues, vertes et rouges dans le manga couleur.

Abilities
Catch the Rainbow functions as an ability for Blackmore, who personally deploys his control over rain to fight. Although powerful in heavy rains, Blackmore's Stand deactivates if the weather becomes clear again.

Rain Manipulation
Catch the Rainbow allows its user to utilize or manipulate rain in various unusual ways.

The most basic ability of Catch the Rainbow is to stop raindrops in their tracks and make them float in mid-air, becoming solid enough to support Blackmore and also deflect projectiles such as a Steel Ball. With this, Blackmore is able to tread on them and reach high altitudes. He can either stop a few select raindrops to walk on, stop several of them over a large zone or create blades out of them. If a target attempts to move through rain stopped by Catch the Rainbow, the drops will tear and penetrate them, potentially creating fatal wounds.

Blackmore is also able to meld with rain. He can let the raindrops fall through him and create holes in his body, with the disappearing body parts materializing from the same raindrops at a distance from the body and remaining functional despite the separation. For instance, he can project his mouth at a distance and talk to someone. He can fuse entirely with the rain and becomes intangible like water, able to evade gunshots, but also travel at high speed across great distances as long as there is rain.

Blackmore demonstrates the ability to plug his wounds with raindrops and stem all bleeding, although it is only a temporary measure.
