Stamina: Superhuman (Able to fight continuously for eight hours against Pixie-Bob's Earth Beasts. Survived a strike from Gevaudan and continued fighting without much issues)
Range: Standard Melee Range, up to Tens of Meters with Electrification and Shooter (His electricity can reach long distances thanks to the pointers fired by his shooter)
Standard Equipment: His Hero Costume, which includes:
- Pointers: Disc-shaped projectiles that stick to targets. When Chargebolt releases his electricity, it converges to where the released pointer is. The working distance limit is 10 meters.
- Shooter: A device Chargebolt wears on his right forearm that fires the Pointers. It contains a dial that allows him to choose the pointer he wants his electricity to be directed towards in case multiple Pointers are set up.
- Optical Visor: A headwear that updates Chargebolt with info about the location of the Pointers.
- Communication Earpiece: Chargebolt wears an earpiece on his right ear that allows him to channel his electricity and create electrical communication signals. This allows him to communicate with other channels remotely.
Intelligence: Average (He can be rather clumsy and dumb at times, but he has been able to make good tactical plans when is needed. Below Average after short-circuiting his brain)
Weaknesses: He is left stunned and unable to battle if he uses too much energy.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Electrification: Chargebolt's Quirk allows him to generate electricity and cover his body in it. While he can also emit this energy over a distance, he has little to no control over it, meaning it will go everywhere indiscriminately. Exceeding his wattage limit causes his brain to short-circuit, leaving him in a vulnerable state for 1 hour.
- Indiscriminate Shock 1,300,000 Volts: Chargebolt releases a massive amount of electricity to shock everyone around him.
- Indiscriminate Shock 2 Million Volts: Chargebolt can increase the power of his Indiscriminate Shock to 2 million volts, although this causes his brain to short-circuit even faster.
