Bionic Abilities are special superhuman powers that were originally designed for robots, but they were put into genetically engineered humans.

Standard Bionic Abilities

  • Super Strength: Although all of Bionic Humans seem to be somewhat stronger than normal people, anyone who has super strength can do things such as effortlessly lift another person, catch a ventilation fan, or even stop a bullet train. In environments that reduce weight, such as underwater or in space, the user could smash car-sized asteroids to rubble with one punch or catch a sinking boat.[1]
  • Super Speed: The user move fast enough that they turn into glowing blurs of vibrating motion and sometimes can't even be seen by others. They can run over four hundred miles an hour. The user can run in circles and if they does it fast enough, they will /create a whirlwind, cyclone, vacuum of powerful winds. This ability can also be used for talking, typing, and fighting. The users of this ability, as well as anyone carried with them, never seem to experience extreme forces, temperatures or lack of breathable air, only strong winds, meaning that the glowing aura around the user may protect them somehow from the force.[1]
    • Sonic Cyclone: When the user spins around fast enough, they can make a sonic cyclone.[2]
    • Mental Navigation System: If you have super speed, you most likely also can tell where to go when you use your super speed.[3]
  • Super Intelligence: The user possesses incredible intelligence and knowledge in many fields, including science, math, law, circuitry and combat. Their intelligence is way higher than the intelligence of regular humans. He/she is also a capable strategist.[1]
  • Super Durability: The user can withstand more punishment than regular humans. Most, if not all, bionic humans tend to be so resilient as to withstand extreme conditions and only be stunned by lasers and energy blasts.
  • Heat Vision/Laser Vision: The user has laser-like heat rays that shoot from the eyes. The user can apparently control the intensity, as the ability has a variety of uses, ranging from wielding metal to simply heating food. The user's eyes glow with energy immediately before using this power.
    • Flame Vision: As an adaptation of heat vision, the user can shoot beams of fire from his eyes.
  • Plasma Grenades: The user can shoot balls of electricity from his hands (although it was only shown three times (Crush, Chop and Burn, Air Leo, The Jet-Wing.) However, the only time this ability has been witnessed were during glitches.
  • Mental Link: Different bionic chips are able to receive information from bionic human mentally, in a method similar to sending an email. The process can be described as tingling. (Sink or Swim)
    • Bionic Beacon: Sebastian uses his bionic beacon to try and find Bob in Adam Steps Up.
  • Super Jump: The user can jump inhumanly high.
  • Super Agility: The user can rapidly respond to change by adapting its initial stable configuration.
  • Bionic Reflection: The user can reflect bionic abilities and laser blast. (Rise of the Secret Soldiers and Bionic Action Hero)
  • Laser Projection: The user can fire lasers powerful enough to stun people (Bionic Action Hero).
  • Force Field: The user is capable of creating a shield to protect him and others. They can also extend their Force Field to encompass other objects, but in this case it must stem from his hands. After long periods of time of being around gamma rays, the force field melts. (Twas The Mission Before Christmas) The user can shrink the force field into a ball and use it as a weapon to throw.
    • Circularkinesis/Electrical Force Field: The user an form circles that have an electric force that can burn a hole in something or push you fast if bounced of a stable wall. The user can shoot 20 times before reusing or recharging depending if android or human. If human can fry their circuits, but an android can withstand the power unless if they use it fry too long. Than it would melt their chips, not their body android steel body their human masked body. This ability is an android ability.
  • Super Senses: The user possesses superhuman sight, hearing, and smell.
  • Mental Database: The user possesses an incredible and extensive mental database; using it, he can match things that he sees and quickly identify them. It holds information like fingerprints (Quarantined), paintings (Hole In One) and people. (The Bionic 500)
  • Bionic GPS: The user can track cell signals using his bionics.
    • Sonar Vision: Through a GPS, the user can create a powerful sonar, to track objects underwater.
  • Viewing Screen: The user can project a holographic screen and use it to see multiple locations. (Quarantined) He can also use it to project other holograms. (Sink or Swim)
  • Hacking: The user can remotely hack computers. (Speed Trapped, Night of the Living Virus)
  • Mathematical Analysis: The user can aim from a far distance. (Commando App)
  • Scan Vision: In "Memory Wipe", Chase uses this ability to scan the inside of the house for Tasha or Donald after they come home two hours after curfew. It gives him a form of X-ray vision, and lets him see through solid objects.
  • Two Simultaneous Abilities: The user can use two abilities simultaneously. It is dangerous as it puts too much stress on them, which can kill them.
  • Energy Blasts: The user can use this ability to fire energy blasts. There are multiple appearances and energy types to this ability, from waves to beams to bolts of energy. Also, a green gaseous energy used on Donald Davenport in Bionic Showdown. It seems non-fatal, as it only knocked him unconscious for at least a few hours.
  • Pixel Vision: The user can only see in pixels (Drone Alone).
  • Lightning Manipulation: The user can harness green lightning in his palm and use it as a weapon. It is presumably powerful enough to kill a person. Leo survived the electricity with one of Donald Davenport's protective vests
  • Scissor Fingers: The user can use his fingers like scissors.
  • Saw Fingers: The user can generate spinning saws that come out of his hand. They are similar to Wolverine's claws, which are sharp metal blades that comes out from between his fingers.
  • Flash Drive Fingers: The user can generate a flash drive through their finger into a computer. (Drone Alone)
  • Electrokinesis: Similar to Parallel Universe Leo, and Marcus, the user can harness the electricity in the air to form dangerous lightning bolts, which is presumably enough to kill a normal person, and can knock out anyone with bionics.

  • Geo-leaping: Allows the user to teleport themselves and others from place to place, sending their molecules in the form of signal anywhere the user thinks of.
  • Pyrokinesis: The user has the ability to shoot fireballs.Its a psychic ability allowing a person to create or control fire with the mind but everyone with it must to be careful with how much they use it and many other abilities along with it, because if they use too many abilities (including pyrokinesis) at the same time, it will cause the bionics to malfunction and fry the user's chip. There are three known people with this ability. Victor Krane, Sebastian (Formerly), and Jenny.
  • Laser Sphere Generation: The user can generate laser spheres from the users palm or fingers of their hands.In Bionic Houseparty, it was revealed it can also be used to revive people, giving one's energy to another. It is shown to be a pretty powerful ability used by powerful people and if two people with this ability join hands they can create an EMP Generation.
  • Bio-Thermokinesis/Thermal Invisibility: The user is able to control her body temperature, and they can use this power to camouflage himself/herself from heat detection.
  • Thermo Touch/Thermokinesis: The user can heat up things from their hands.
  • Electric Cage: The user can freeze someone in an electric cage, shaped like a force field.
  • Energy Manipulation: Logan uses this ability to guide Leo and Taylor's EMP's.
  • Rapid Gyration: Spin uses this ability to spin at an incredible speed in a cyclone like matter. This ability is probably related to super speed. However, substances like quicksand can slow down and halt his spinning.
  • Bionic Thunderclap: The user can clap their hands to create a powerful shockwave that knocks down anyone or thing within range. This was first shown in The Vanishing when Daniel touched a student and gained his ability.
  • Sonic Scream: This ability makes the user scream excessively loud and can easily break a normal eardrum. This ability was only shown in Spike vs. Spikette.

  • Molecular Manipulation: This ability was used to form a substance that was unbreakable. It was discovered and only seen in Bionic Rebellion. Lexi can manipulate molecules in an object to make the said object into something else. An example of this is when she turned an exit door into an indestructible object known as Carbonex. Another example is when she turned the metal object into ice and melted it. She said she hid this ability.
  • Ultraviolet Push/Telekinetic Push/Bionic Push: Utraviolet push is a bionic ability telekinetic push like a ultraviolet blast is an exclusive ability of the bionic soldiers. It was seen in Rise of the Secret Soldiers by some of the Bionic Soldiers who were battling Donald and Douglas. Is unknown if Victor Krane has this ability. It can be prevented against super beings that have radiation resistance or even has the bionic abilities energy absorption and energy transference.
  • Power Replication: It is revealed by Douglas in And Then There Were Four that Daniel has an ability called Power Replication. He can touch someone and have whatever ability he/she has. When he touches another person, the old ability is replaced with the new one. It appears to have no glitches and the only bionic human who has it was Daniel.
  • Night Vision: Gives the user the ability to see in the dark. It's never seen, but it was mentioned in "Brother Battle."
  • Acid Spit: Allows the user to spit acid, although Douglas mentions that if you drool in your sleep, it could melt your face off. This ability is never seen but is mentioned in "Brother Battle."

Hidden Abilities

When Douglas created Adam, Bree and Chase, he hid secret codes into their chips, resulting in the creation of hidden abilities, though it's unknown if he did so intentionally or out of habit. These abilities are unpredictable and can randomly unlock at any moment. Victor Krane also installed hidden abilities in the Bionic Soldiers.


  • Blast Wave: In the episode Bionic Showdown, when Marcus is about to kill Leo, Adam becomes infuriated and gains the energy for the blast that nearly kills Marcus. When first accessing this power, his voice became momentarily deeper and a bit shaky, so it may have been difficult to control. This ability was hidden until this episode. In the episode No Going Back when Adam uses it in school to break the X-Ray machine, Terry Perry mistook the shock wave it created for an earthquake.
  • Underwater Breathing: As shown in Sink or Swim, Adam can breathe underwater for a prolonged amount of time.

Adam uses pressurized lung capacity against Chase's laser bo

Marcus uses his Molecularkinesis to close doors[4]

  • Molecularkinesis: In "Mission: Space", it was revealed that Chase can manipulate the energy, force, molecules around a target, giving him a form of telekinesis, with its only limit being if the target is moving too fast, is too large, or is too heavy.
  • Levitation: Another one of Chase's hidden abilities; in "Bionic Showdown", Chase demonstrates the power to levitate and uses it to kick Marcus in the chest. He says he discovered this ability in the shower, Bob also has this ability, and has used this many times in the series.
  • Laser Bo: Chase's fist can generate a Laser Bo staff that is very useful during combat, it is strong enough to knock Adam through the air. Sebastian had a similar variant of this ability, in the form of a pitchfork.
  • Energy Transference: In Rise of the Secret Soldiers, Douglas gave Leo the ability to suck the energy out of things and redirect them. He has used this ability to bring Mr. Davenport back to life. He also used this ability to defeat Taylor. In Bionic Houseparty, it was revealed it can also be used to revive people, giving one's energy to another. 
  • Energy Projection: is a bionic Ability who allows the user to fire a powerful Energy projectile.this is one of many Sebastian hidden abilities 
  • EMP Generation:: In Lab Rats: On The Edge , Leo and Taylor discover that if they combine their laser spheres, they are able to make an Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) or a powerful bigger sphere that can disable any electrically charged object it touches. This power was discovered when Leo and Taylor combine their laser spheres together. This ability was only used in Lab Rats: On The Edge.

  • Bionic Fusion Attack: If a bionic person with an Override App uses it on two other bionic people, they can fuse their all bionic abilities to create one large attack. It takes time to charge up, and the three must stand in a perfect triangle, but when it is ready, it is fired through the one who initiated the fusion.

Bionic Apps

Bionic Apps are minor bionic abilities. They exist, according to Douglas Davenport, because by the time he had created Chase he installed rooms for upgrades. Most of them are fairly easy to control, as the user can effortlessly use them with confidence. They appear in a variety of forms. It is unknown if Marcus Davenport or Victor Krane possess any bionic apps, as they are said to possess all bionic abilities. Some of these are abilities that are completely exclusive to Chase Davenport.

  • Override App: The user can take over other bionic chips remotely. Another useful ability, shown in Death Spiral Smackdown and Sink or Swim. It allows the users to remotely take control of any bionic person nearby. Chase has used it on Adam and Bree, and other bionic soldiers. It only controls the bodies, not the minds (see Triton App) which means the subject is still conscious while being controlled. It's later revealed that the Override App was designed to link bionic abilities together, and produce a powerful blast.   
  • Fingerprint Recognition App: The user can match the fingerprints on any item with the finger prints in his data. This is part of the mental database that comes with Chase's intelligence ability. One can store, and then recall, other's fingerprints, and can be used to hack fingerprint scanning locks.
  • Magnetism App: The user instantly becomes like powerful magnet, attracting metal objects to them with ease. A fairly frequently used ability, seen in Chore Wars, Sink or Swim, and Bionic Action Hero. The user's hands turn into a powerful magnet that can attract or repel metal objects.
  • Commando App: Whenever the user gets very angry or feels threatened, he turns into an angry fighter who is not afraid of anything, armed with enhanced strength. After the app is disabled, the user does not remember anything that happened while they were in the app.

  • Mind Control/Triton App: The user can make bionic humans implanted with the app completely under their control, either making them mindless slaves or simply making them subservient to them, while retaining their personality. Once a remote controlled app, Victor Krane gave himself the ability to mentally control people with the app and created a device to transmit the app in normal people.
  • Invisibility App: Bree has an app that allows her to become invisible. This was a hidden ability that Douglas unlocked for her.
  • Upgrade App/Power Augmentation: In The Vanishing Part 1, Douglas and Donald created a software that makes everyone's bionic abilities 10 times better. Donald put a skill app that allows the Bionic people to master their amp up abilities instantly. It only works on people with a bionic chip, so Leo can't get the upgrade. It later didn't work on Adam, Bree, or Chase's because their chips were first generation/older models. Daniel was able to revived the upgrade because his powers were not activated until after the Bionic Soldiers were around and his bionic system is compatible with Davenport's skill app upgrade. Later when all of their chips were destroyed Douglas and Donald created a newer chip with Giselle research and created a new supernatural chip which allows Adam, Bree, and Chase the upgrade.


Douglas Davenport is the true father of Adam, Bree, Chase and Daniel. First, Donald Davenport and his brother Douglas Davenport started Davenport Industries together. They created bionics so robots could go on missions that were too dangerous for humans, but Douglas went behind Donald's back and had made microchips for four genetically engineered children he called Adam, Bree, Chase and Daniel, implanting them in their necks and fusing the bionic chips to their nervous systems. Douglas plans to use them for evil purposes, with the intention of turning them into weapons and selling them to the highest bidders, which are dictators, warlords, terrorists, or madmen.

When Donald found out, he was extremely upset and kicked Douglas out of Davenport Industries for planning to commit his crimes. So Donald thought if he could raise them into a safe environment he could train them to be bionic heroes, so he adopted them and built The Lab where he hid the 3 of the children except for Daniel. Douglas gave Daniel to a family who was looking to adopt a child. Douglas then got in business with a mysterious benefactor, Victor Krane. Krane would give Douglas $80 million for his research. In exchange, Douglas would share his bionic research with Krane and give him bionic abilities. However, Krane had been using Douglas's research behind his back to genetically engineer an entire army of Bionic Soldiers as a contingency plan.


There were less than 10 known people with bionics up to the episode You Posted What?!? and they were Adam Davenport, Bree Davenport, Chase Davenport, Leo Dooley, Marcus Davenport, Victor Krane, and Taylor. There are many abilities and hidden/not yet known abilities. Marcus, was an android spy who worked for Douglas Davenport and died in Bionic ShowdownVictor Krane is the next bionic villain. Victor Krane worked with Douglas Davenport, turned on him in the episode Taken, and is now working with a new partner, a Bionic Soldier known as Taylor. In the episode You Posted What?!?, Taylor causes a ceiling to collapse on Leo's arm so Douglas repairs his arm by giving his right arm Bionics. In Space Elevator, Donald Davenport gives Leo bionics to his leg since it got crushed by the elevator. There is also an army of Bionic Soldiers, created by Victor Krane. The Bionic Soldiers consists about a hundred soldiers, according to Sebastian, and are bionic, hence their name, thus making the number of bionic people over a hundred.

It is unknown how bionics infrastructure is able to give its subjects their powers and abilities, but it would seem that bionics can alter and transform the molecules or the molecular structure of their subjects, a process which can strain or negatively affect the bodies, more specifically the brain and nerves of organic subjects, thus causing these subjects some strain when overusing abilities, using more than one or two at a time, or when their emotions control their powers. Since their bionics are incompatible with an organic brain and nervous system, as well as the general strain that the bionics could potentially do to their users, it results in the user having glitches and errors, much like malfunctions in computers, circuitry and software. Many organic bionic subjects each have a set of abilities controlled through a microchip in their necks, implanted by a capsule or with a portable bionic chip transference device, the latter of which can implant or remove bionics from the neck in seconds. These bionics can also be in other parts of the body, as Leo has the injured parts of his arms replaced with bionic components, which give his arm bionic abilities.

Bionics are seemingly implanted in the neck to properly connect to the nerves and brain and fully distribute its abilities into humans, thus making the subject fully bionic. This seems to be why Leo's abilities are only in his arm where his bionic components are. An organic subject of bionics, should they possess dormant abilities or be given new ones from a source outside their own chip, must not unlock too many of them or all of them, as the body will be literally tore apart and explode. At most one or two abilities can be used at a time or it will overwhelm and kill the user, another reason why Bionic people use martial arts in some points in combat, instead of their powers. It would seem that bionic abilities cannot be constantly or repeatedly used at one time, or it can be damaging or straining to the user, which is why sometimes, bionics do not use their powers, even when they fight, as it can be more debilitating than helpful. Also, using powers may exhaust them, but not the user, for a some time, which is why Bionic humans uses hand-to-hand combat in their fights at some points.

Also, the bionics have similar vulnerabilities of normal circuitry, computers, and software, as electromagnetic pulses and similar forces can cause malfunctions in those who have bionics, as the hardware is connected to their nerves and therefore affects them if their bionics malfunction. In Drone Alone, the Lemp device caused Adam, Bree and Chase's bionics to go haywire, and in Lab Rats vs Mighty Med, energy from the Incapacitator put him in a coma and caused a hardware virus in Chase's bionics made it so that if his blood pressure rose to high, Chase would explode, even after he was revived from the coma with a positive charge. Also in Spike vs Spikette, overactive bionics would overheat the technology until they melted through the user's tissues and killed them. As seen in Spike vs Spikette, the Commando App in Spikette was overwhelming her bionics as her adrenaline levels continued to rise. Her bionics would have eventually burned out and melted her brain. Bionic's can be rendered useless and its abilities nullified when exposed to anything with bionic signal interrupters, which cut the connection between the body and its bionics for as long as they are active. In addition to hardware's bestowing abilities, it also gives its subjects traits similar to computers, such as being able to wirelessly receive information, to possess applications and upgrades to software, and possessing a standard GPS based tracking system.

This can also affect bionic subjects less positively by causing them to be susceptible to software malfunction, EMP like forces like the LEMP device in Drone Alone, and computer viruses designed specifically for bionics. Chase has even more computer like traits, as he can access the internet with his mind, download data into himself, instantly obtaining knowledge and skills, as well as physical ability to perform such skills, such as guitar playing, martial arts, and dancing, being able to analyze, scan, identify anything he looks at in seconds, with this allowing him to read at inhuman speed and finish an entire book in seconds, having multiple, powerful forms of electronic sensory, scanning, detection, and identification ability, such as radar and sonar scan, having a form of x ray vision, possessing a heads up display in his eyes, being able to holographically project his heads up display or other data from his eye and using satellites to enhance these abilities, control, hack into, or tap into signals, computers, and other technology or locate himself or anything else. Symptoms of glitching include half consciousness, fainting, severe bodily spasms, some of which seem to cause sonic vibrations, and a trance like sleep walking state in which bionic subjects become abnormally destructive with their powers. Their systems are also being damaged by glitches and the regenerative abilities of capsules are crucial for suppressing and repairing the subject from them.


  • Superheroes have been unaware of the existence of bionic superhumans, and don't consider bionics to be anything special.  
  • Every ability is still a work in progress.
