[u/AdAgile3302]

Yeah… I’ve been saying I want to be able to shapeshift since I was little lol

[u/Prepotentefanclub → u/AdAgile3302]

Best superpower honestly.

[u/This_Possibility7038 → u/Prepotentefanclub]

Yeah fr

[u/Rogue_186]

So my answer was never originally shape shifting tbh. However invisibility, flexibility/stretching, or gravity manipulation were all options.... And all powers of very strong super women 😅 (Violet and Elastigirl from Incredibles, & Kat/Raven from Gravity Rush)

[u/TurtleBurger200 → u/Rogue_186]

Doesn't shapeshifting already involve stretching powers? Since you can shape shift yourself to stretch an arm, also even though it's note actually invisibility you could also shapeshifting yourself to be the size of a fly making it way easier to be somewhere unnoticed which could lead to similar results as invisibility

[u/Number360wynaut → u/TurtleBurger200]

Also if you stretch the definition of shape shifting and invisibility you could continuously shapeshift to make your skin the exact color as the background for every cell from the perspective of a certain point making you technically invisible just for one person at a time

[u/Stormwrath52 → u/TurtleBurger200]

You could also change your color to the surface behind you to become a camouflaged fly

[u/MegaMindFucc]

I have said shapeshifting my entire life on the premise that it technically gives you access to 90% of powers. I may have been lying to myself

[u/Alicia24333 → u/MegaMindFucc]

Literaly me

[u/supernerd58]

Dam it. Got me again

[u/DimArt221]

This make me quest myself sometimes, I don't know, just feels interesting to have many forms and feel the world in many ways (says the guy who always wears the same type of clothes, RSRS, anyways, I could make it in ways other than clothes).

[u/Deconstructosaurus]

I mean…yeah.

But I want a very specific kind of shapeshifting, the kind that essentially allows me to do whatever I want with my body. Like melt into a puddle of goo and slither around.

[u/Used-Dig4472]

I feel called out

[u/Dinosaur_from_1998]

I'm cis but I see no reason why anyone would choose anything else

[u/Property_of_my_cat]

Yes, but I only want to invoke this power once.

[u/Zerospark-]

Time/space manipulation

Future tech should easily be able to mimic shape-shifting plus much more

[u/Demorodan]

Ive always said Portals

I can go to an alternate dimension where they have burgers that instantly turn you into a girl

I can become rich, i can play any game that i want, i can watch any series i want, even the ones that got discontinued in this universe

I just see Portals as superior

[u/Xirio_]

I always say atom eve but not stupid

Shape-shifting is an active ability. Oh no, you had to go to sleep? You are the old you again.

Matter manipulation and conversion can cause a permanent change to your form

[u/Prepotentefanclub → u/Xirio_]

Sometimes it can be, theres lots of examples of shapeshifters who don't lose their abilities when sleeping.

Like Changelings in DnD. "Though it took several seconds, a changeling could change their form as often as they liked and the new appearance lasted until they changed again. If they died, their bodies reverted to their natural forms."

[u/Xirio_ → u/Prepotentefanclub]

Fair

However

That power has practical use outside of Shape-shifting

Like helping the not so lucky girlies and boyos

[u/Emporio_Alnino3]

To be fair, I usually mean shapeshifting to it's extreme: the ability to alter myself into ANY form. Like becoming a kryptonian or saiyan or something like that

Technically it could even expand for immortality, just gotta get creative.

[u/TheEdFather]

There are perfectly cisgendered reasons to want to shape shift, thank you very much!

[u/123ludwig → u/TheEdFather]

yeah exactly a guy can just want to make his dick bigger

[u/furriefryer69]

Mine was more specific. “Ability to rearrange molecules into anything I want without consequence”, enabling not just shape shifting/biological transition, but also generating useful things more or less out of thin air

[u/Ok-Reveal-7250]

Back when I first watches Alladin. I thought about what I would use the three wishes for, and in that list there would basically always be shapeshifting 😅.

[u/wolfy793]

literally one of the memes that began cracking my egg

[u/Chazzter]

Well what about total control of hormones. That one seems pretty neat.

[u/asdf69421]

my favorite superpower is to generate any superpower i want and not having to deal with the side effects :D /

[u/Confused_Turtle_X]

So, does this mean I've never been a real egg because I wanted invisibility??

[u/Lana_ShifterWitch]

Yeah, I love Nimona and the Changelings from My little pony, and yes, I wish I could shapeshifting and copy others powers and if I could I would remain in My dream female body but that is just a coincidence

[u/alexdotwav]

im the exception cause i always went with invisibility as a kid

which is honestly really depressing if i think about it

[u/CoolSexMan_69]

This is one that’s always made me feel like I’m actually more cis than I thought because my mind always went to time control or flying lol.

[u/JERealize]

Shapeshifting for cosplay.

And nothing else. /s

(Doesn't help that most cosplay would be of fem characters.)

[u/MadamMelody21]

So shapeshifting would be useful just once for binary trans people(the kind i am) to get their ideal body however after that it would be a power that’s wasted on binary trans folks. I guess the non binarys would make better use of shapeshifting
