They're about as rare if not slightly rarer than Overworld zombie pigmen. Namely because creepers despawn and only spawn at night, but pigs spawn night and day and never despawn so there's more of a chance for lightning to hit a pig rather than a creeper.
oh yeah, almost forgot about that...>< Thanks for reminding me...lol

My First World, always getting back to is a pleasure I enjoy with each new update that brings in more things to add in.
Me and my dog have been hit by lightning on 2 separate occasions, this lightning seems to seek people out i always see lightning strikes within 100 blocks of me =/ (thats why i build in snow now)
Thanks for all these posts guys! I'm still trying to find one myself...
Come to think of it, all the times it has rained in my world (5? 6?), I haven't even seen lightning.

One reason I have mentioned it being quite random when it rains. Even on my worlds, including my primary one, it seems to rain a lot, however not all are actually lightning storms. Seems to vary with each rain spurt that trinkles my way.
If you really wanted to see one, just look up doc77's channel on youtube and well he makes a mob thing especially tune for that purpose. Although it still will be a long wait regardless, as he mentions. lol
One of these days I will make a mob machine, eventually...><

I had the most bizzare thing happen with my wolf on my original main world, where I was down alone in my slime farm rooms at bedrock level, and upon hearing the very first strike of thunder from above, my wolf was suddenly teleported down next to me and on fire before it then died O_o made me jump a bit too when I suddenly got nudged and turned around to see my wolf on fire right behind me :| at the time the lightning struck, my wolf was indoors inside my base/house, so the only explanation I can think of is that stuff above ground level had temporary unloaded whilst I was deep down underground, all apart from the wolf maybe? which in turn was somehow struck by the first bolt of lightning to hit during a storm that was starting! This was back before 1.8.2 too, so passive mobs would spawn/despawn as normal and I'm assuming that as the wolf was tamed by me, then it probably wouldn't unload in that case?
That is pretty crazy. In all of the other games I have played, when I look away it seems the other parts of the game are unloaded, disappearing. It might be possible that they unloaded as you were down there, only the dog staying there. It seems pretty likely. I have no other explanations. maybe you could test it again if it works (Dumb idea, Ender).
Yeah it was a completely weird glitch of some sorts anyway :| the weird thing is anytime I've been in the same setup/condtions before, I've never had it happen at all before! So it must have been some rare thunderstorm that makes your wolf get struck and teleport down to you?
i run around during lighting and i have never gotten hit. and i heard the chances of lighting hitting a pig is 1 out of 1,000,000. so i say a charged creeper is about the same.

That'd be effing awesome, "I AM THE SPIDER JOCKEY NOW!!" I would proclaim.
maybe add it to the exclusive request thread?
Quite the experience, if I do say so myself.
Almost made a mess in my trousers.
To the OP, I have no idea. I have never seen one.
