Sometimes a plain old garden-variety punch just won't cut it, and just punching harder or faster isn't doing the job either. It needs a little something extra. It needs to be enhanced. That's what this is: a powered up punch. Popular punch-enhancers include explosives, magic, ki, elemental damage, charging the punch and all manner of Applied Phlebotinum. If a Boxing Battler or punching Extremity Extremist has a Limit Break, Special Attack, or Signature Move, chances are it'll be one of these. The magical variation is a common tool of the Kung-Fu Wizard. Likely to cause the victim to be Punched Across the Room. Super-Trope to Elemental Punch and Rocket Punch. If it's an external weapon such as brass knuckles or a glove that gives a character this ability, it's a Power Fist. Compare and contrast Pressure Point and Attack Its Weak Point, where it's the area attacked, as opposed to a property of the punch itself, that makes it special. See also Megaton Punch, a comedic trope in which the strength of the punch usually goes unexplained. Weighted Gloves is a more mundane case. Not to be confused with spiking the punch. |

In Justice League of America, The Flash fights a speedster called Zoom. Once Flash starts thinking of it as a fight rather than a race, he uses his speed to accelerate his body until his uppercut has sufficient force to propel Zoom upwards at 25,000 mph. The Flash has the Speed Force to render himself immune to relativistic effects of approaching lightspeed as he runs. Zoom lacks that same protection, and thus from his perspective Wally was punching him with infinite mass. | |

Naruto: Tsunade and Sakura have some of the highest destructive potential in the series because of their ability to focus their chakra into their fists for a devastating attack. Choji from the same series can do this with his Butterfly Bombardment attack after using his Calorie Control jutsu. He can make this punch even more ludicrously powerful by by making himself gigantic. In The Last: Naruto the Movie, Naruto channels his Sage Nine-Tails Chakra Mode into one fist to augment a punch. |

XCOM: Enemy Unknown: MEC Troopers in the Enemy Within expansion have the option to upgrade their cyborg frames with a Kinetic Strike Module, which is essentially a rocket-assisted Power Fist. The poor saps who get hit will be sent flying, and if they hit a car, it immediately explodes. With the proper Foundry upgrade, the damage goes from an already respectable 12 damage to a devastating 18, and the MEC can use both action points to strike. If the "Absolutely Critical" Second Wave option, a single upgraded punch will One-Hit Kill anything in the game save for the Final Boss or a Sectopod (its armor in Enemy Within halves, rounded up, all damage taken). | |

Superman possesses the ability to vibrate any combination of the molecules in his body. One of his favorite techniques he got from the Flash, which is to vibrate his fist as he punches someone. He chooses to vibrate his fist just under the speed of light, thus increasing the mass of his fist to a near-infinite level, creating the Infinite Mass Punch. He even hit Goku with it, once. | |

One Piece: Luffy has many of this kind of move, but the most notable would be his Gum-Gum Pistol, Bazooka and many variations of it, which are given additional range and force by his Rubber Man powers. Later, he learns to blow his limbs up to gigantic size for even more force. Once he learns how to use Haki, he can turn his fists black and bypass the natural defenses of a Devil Fruit user, including a Logia. A few other Devil Fruit eaters have similar moves using their own powers. Bellamy's Spring Death-Knock (coiling his spring arm then releasing it) and Bartolomeo's Bari-Bari Pistol (encasing his fist in a hard, protective forcefield); an intentional homage to Luffy's Gum-Gum Pistol, are some examples. Luffy's grandfather Garp, tellingly also known as Garp "the Fist" uses these as well. His "Galaxy Impact" is a Haki-enhanced punch which can level an entire city. |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood: Jonathan Joestar's primary method of attack is to channel Hamon into his fists via Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs to destroy the undead. A few of the main cast with their Stands harbor unique abilities that are channeled through enhanced strikes, usually in the form of Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs. Crazy Diamond's punches are able to fix things, which he actually uses against enemies on a few occasions by merging them into their surroundings. Gold Experience's punches, while relatively weak, imbue life into whatever it touches. This gives already-living beings Super-Senses, which just leaves them more susceptible to pain. |

Dragon Ball: Dragon Fist, one of Goku's moves from Dragon Ball Z that doesn't see much use in the main series but shows up in the Non-Serial Movies from time to time, as well as in Dragon Ball GT, is a full-out lethal punch that, at Super Saiyan 3 or higher, creates a mini golden Shenron (presumably out of ki) which explodes. The Dragon Fist is also based on the technique that Goku uses to kill King Piccolo in the original Dragon Ball. The punch has no official name, but it has been called the Monkey Fist and the manga chapter it is used in is titled "The Fist of Son Goku." This particular punch takes the shape of a Great Ape and is embedded with all of Goku's remaining energy since it's his last gambit to beat King Piccolo. | |

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate: The Brachydios specializes in these. Its bulbous, hard hands are covered in a special slime mold that spreads itself by combustion. Brachydios agitates the slime with its saliva and the resultant punches are...explosive. | |

Iron Fist's sole superpower (at first) is to charge his fist with chi to make it "like unto a thing of iron." While he eventually gets more powers to go along with his Charles Atlas Superpower, he's generally just a skilled martial artist with an occasional superpowered punch. | |

In Pretty Cure, punches are common attacks for the series' Magical Girl Warriors anyway, but Cure Star of Star★Twinkle Pretty Cure has an enhanced punch as her Signature Move. For her Star Punch, she uses her Star Color Pendant to create a star, and punches it straight toward the enemy. Its power can be enhanced by the Taurus, Aries, and Pisces Star Princess Color Pens, as well. | |

In Negima! Magister Negi Magi, mages like to augment their punches with spells that discharge when the fist connects. The Dangerous Forbidden Technique Magia Erebea allows one to outright merge with the spell, enhancing their punches to even greater levels. | |

In The Apprentice, the Student, and the Charlatan, Aegis is able to punch with lightning. It requires some time to gather all of the energy, but when he releases it, it's able to completely break a strong magic shield, but it leaves him winded for a few moments. | |

In Rurouni Kenshin, Sagara Sanosuke ends up focusing on unarmed combat, and in a chance meeting with Yūkyūzan Anji, is taught the Dangerous Forbidden Technique Futae no Kiwami ("Mastery of the Two Layers"). It involves hitting your target separately with subsequent joints of the hand, resulting in two rapid blows. The idea is that the first blow overcomes an object's natural resistance, and then the second hits before it can recover, allowing the practitioner to cause huge damage to opponents with punches capable of shattering solid stone. | |

Street Fighter: One of Ryu and Ken's special moves, the Shoryuken, is a rising punch enhanced by ki. The nasty scar on Sagat's chest was caused by taking one of these from Ryu during the first World Warrior Tournament, though the Alpha series would retcon this into something of a Diabolus ex Machina, with Ryu inadvertently tapping into the Satsui no Hado after losing to Sagat and performing a Metsu Shoryuken as Sagat, his guard down, was offering to help the young warrior back up to his feet. | |

YuYu Hakusho: The Spirit Wave technique used by Yusuke and Genkai turns the user's entire body into a catalyst for their spirit energy, then focuses that energy into a single extremely powerful punch. It's their most powerful destructive technique, as Yusuke sends Jin flying across the arena and into the stands, and Genkai blows a hole in Younger Toguro's torso with it despite their colossal difference in strength. | |

A few figures in the Transformers toyline have special punching gimmicks: Lugnut (an Alternate Universe version of the one from Transformers: Animated has a spring in his forearms allowing for a spring-loaded "Punch Of Kill Everything." Stockade from Transformers (2007)'s toyline (and his redeco, Gears) have a gear-based mechanism allowing his fists to extend for extra strong punches. |

Super Smash Bros.: It's unclear exactly what, if anything, enhances Captain Falcon's Falcon Punch, but the equivalent move used by his Moveset Clone Ganondorf, the Warlock Punch, is powered by magic. Both have a short charge time but pack a serious wallop. | |
