Aka LordGriffin1000 continues his long tradition of attempting to add random additions to DP ghosts that he finds.
Enhanced Senses (Seeing/Hearing Invisible Ops)
So this was actually something on the previous ghost physiology page but wasn't added back when I revised it. Now I'm too lazy to find the old thread because it's not logged on the DP discussion thread and I don't know how long ago I made the thread, however I'm not going to just add it back without a new thread to justify it and get in trouble. So let's go.
In the episode "Splitting Images", Sidney Poindexter could see Danny Phantom while he was invisible, and this was the first time we see a ghost interact with another while there invisible (Yeah, most ghosts don't bother to use invisibility on each other). Note that they depict the invisibility as Danny lightly colored before he turns visible. This is one of two ways the writers use to allow the audience to know the ghost is invisible but the characters in verse don't.
Now this was the justification used to give ghosts the ability to see other invisible beings, given Poindexter stated Danny had all their powers and it wasn't depicted as unique because this was the first time Danny used invisibility in front of another ghost so obviously he's surprised they can see him. However, this isn't all the evidence that suggests ghosts can see invisible beings, and this is also why I wanted to make the thread over again.
In the episode "Fenton Menace", Danny is being harassed by Youngblood but no one can see or hear Youngblood so it makes Danny look crazy. Youngblood then explains that the reason he calls himself Youngblood is because only the young/kids can see him, and states that Danny's sister thinks she's an adult which is why she couldn't see him but the moment she acts her age, she gained the ability to hear and see him. Despite this information, Youngblood's ghost crew that aren't kids can see and hear him perfectly fine and act out his orders, which provides more evidence that ghosts can see and hear things that are normally invisible to others.
Now, from my recollection there are two moments in the series that potentially cause issues with this but I believe they are unreliable but I'll talk about them after I address the second ability addition as it's a potential counter.
Teleportation
Now this is an ability I was not fond of but many in the Danny Phantom community believe Danny has teleportation because of a specific moment in one episode but I didn't agree. It was even added to his profile in the past without proof or a thread, so I moved it to just the note that we have been currently use on his profile so no one does that again without making a thread.
Note #2: Danny seemly has the ability to vanish and instantly reappear in another place nearby. Although unconfirmed, it is suggested that this could possibly be teleportation, or he could simply be him moving while invisible, though this is atypical for the show's animation, as the audience can normally see him while he is invisible.
However, I decided to just check it myself finally, I believe teleportation should be a standard ghost power given the evidence shown by various ghosts.
1. Ember showed she has two different visual teleportations. Her band also teleports in and after she is defeated, they dip out in a different style of teleportation.
2. Vlad shows he has two different visual teleportations.
3. Youngblood and his crew teleported into Danny's school.
4. Fright Knight's style of teleportation is a appearing from a lighting bolt with smoke.
5. Lydia can teleport with her tattoos that come from her body.
6. Nocturne teleports behind Danny.
7. Even the inanimate Soul Shredder sword teleported itself back into the Ghost Zone when its seal was triggered.
Now with this evidence shown that various ghosts and even a ghost object can teleport and even have different types of visual teleportation, I'll talk about Danny's two major assumed teleportation feats, and one for Dani.
1. In the episode "What You Want", Danny is chased by Tucker Phantom and seemingly teleports twice. Now one could argue he just turned invisible but visually it doesn't match how they portray invisibility consistently.
My counter arguments would also be Tucker's ghost sense going off, given that it only goes off as an alert when a ghost is near but if Danny simply turned invisible and moved behind him, he'd already still be near but if he teleported, he wouldn't be physically there and thus when he reappears in his area, the ghost sense would trigger. My second argument is to look at how freaking close Tucker is when Danny disappeared the second time before Tucker could grab him... unless you argue Danny blitzed Tucker from a stand still, he should have still ran into him. And finally if we accept ghosts being able to see invisible entities, Tucker would have still seen Danny move.
2. In the episode "Reality Trip", Danny is showing off his ghost powers against Freakshow to get in his head. At one point, Danny seemingly teleports. Once again, I originally argued this was just him turning invisible but like the previous example, it doesn't match the more consistent invisibility showing, nor does it match the visual of ghosts breaking themselves down into energy and reforming.
3. In the episode "D Stabilized", Dani seemingly teleports in to scare Danny. You can argue she was invisible though but that appearance doesn't match invisibility but it's not impossible.
Conclusion
Given the evidence above, I do believe Danny Phantom ghosts should gain Enhanced Senses for being able to naturally see other ghosts while their invisible and for Youngblood's invisibility even hear them when others can't. I also believe Teleportation is also a given due to all the showings from various ghosts that aren't related and Danny's showings supporting that given the arguments in favor of his being teleportation. Plus if we accept that ghosts can see invisible beings then that would remove any anti feats against Danny/Dani's showings.
Note that if anyone recalls more showings that support or disproves these additions, please provide scans as I don't recall every single instance.
If accepted, the additions would look like this.
Enhanced Senses (Ghosts are capable of seeing invisible beings, including those who cannot be heard while invisible)
Teleportation (Ghosts have shown the ability to teleport, mainly short distances)
