Earth Punch

The Earth Punch (also known as Lava Arm) is a special ability that Cole was able to unlock from his RX powers during Day of the Departed. When active, Cole's hands will glow bright orange, and his arms will have orange magma going up them, and his scar will appear and glow orange.

Day of the Departed
During Cole's fight with Master Yang, Cole managed to gain vigor and courage once his friends arrived to try and help him. After knocking Yang back, Cole unlocks his Earth Punch powers.

The Hands of Time
While helping clean up the museum, Cole's hands turned orange, with Jay asking if he has gotten used to being human again.

Cole later uses the Earth Punch several times during the Ninja's fight with Acronix at the Monastery of Spinjitzu, and even uses them to grab and help up Master Wu before he fell to his death.

The Hatching
While fighting a Vermillion warrior outside the Borg Store, Cole uses his Earth Punch to shatter the warrior into its component snakes. Horrified about this, Cole says it was an accident before watching the Vermillion warrior reshape itself back to normal.

A Time of Traitors
On the way to help Kai and the museum, Cole and Jay bail from the Ultra Stealth Raider to rescue several people being escorted away by several Vermillion warriors. While Jay wishes that the rest of the team was here, Cole introduces his hands to him, introducing them as "righty" and "lefty." However, while using his punch to try and fight the Vermillion, Cole's hands began to become out of his control, making him unwillingly damage some of the nearby area and allowing the Vermillion to escape with their prisoners.

Scavengers
While training with Jay at the Temple of Airjitzu, Cole, angered by Jay's silly conspiracies on where the people went, uses his Earth Punch to ground-pound the ground, knocking Jay back and causing the floating piece of land that the temple was on to slightly move.

Secrets Discovered
When Lloyd asks if Cole has his Earth Punch under control, Cole says he has before beginning to punch the air with his hands before accidentally punching a hole in a wall, which reveals Krux's secret breeding laboratory.

Pause and Effect

Season 8: Sons of Garmadon
Because of Krux and Acronix's meddling in the past, Cole's Earth Punch was slightly changed. When active, it recreates an orange version of his scar he previously had. It also leaves behind a magma trail whenever Cole uses Spinjitzu while his punch is active.

The Jade Princess
While training with the other Ninja in the Royal Palace, Cole helps encourage Lloyd to "be tough" when asking out Harumi by demonstrating his Earth Punch and using his Spinjitzu with the Earth Punch.
