Features
Throwing a lightning rod on the ground starts a countdown until lightning will strike. The time until lightning strikes is displayed above the rod. The countdown can be cancelled by picking up the lightning rod. Once the countdown reaches zero, a bolt of lightning is summoned, consuming the item.
If there is more than one item in a stack of lightning rods, an error will be displayed above the lightning rod and the countdown will stop. This prevents dying with multiple lightning rods in your inventory from summoning lightning and destroying all your items, but dying with a single lightning rod in your inventory will.

Previous Versions
MC 1.8 Version
The MC 1.8 Version did not have achievements. Additionally, Shulkers were not in the game, thus could not be created by striking a purpur block.
MC 1.9-12. Versions
In the MC 1.9-1.12 versions, the advancements were actually a simulated achievement, using tellraw to show the message. This has been transferred to advancements upon the release of the 1.13 version.
