Catch the Rainbow

“

O nome da minha habilidade é 'Catch the Rainbow'. Os pingos de chuva que eu toco... Eu posso 'estabilizar' no ar... Como cruzar um 'arco-íris'... ou andar em uma 'prancha de vidro'... Você não pode assumir que a chuva está sempre caindo.

”

—Blackmore, Steel Ball Run Chapter 37: The Green Tomb, Part 2

Abilities

Rain Manipulation

Catch the Rainbow allows Blackmore to utilize or manipulate rain in various unusual ways, such as allowing him to travel quickly or for fighting purposes.

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 become intangible like water, evade gunshots, and 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.
