What is this power?.

A while ago it was decided that Johnny 13's shadows power is not probability/bad luck manipulation so I would like to remove it but I want to know what we consider the power to actually be.

Whenever Shadow fly's through an object, said object glows green and then gets destroyed. This is a passive effect as Shadow has no control over this. Examples of the power in effect is 1. Shadow flying through a car and it bursts into pieces, 2. Shadow fly's through a door and it becomes old and falls of the hinges, 3. Shadow fly's through a popcorn machine and it goes haywire and explodes, 4. Shadow fly's through a mechine and it explodes.

What do we consider this power?. It seems that whatever Shadow passes through, brakes down, goes haywire and or explodes.

Deconstruction?

What does it happen when flying through a living being, or another ghost?

Nothing presumable. Its never flown trough a human or ghost but it did cover itself around Danny and nothing happed so it's unknown what would happen if he flew through a human.

So, it just make objects to malfunction.

Pretty much, be it a door or a car. It just malfunctions or falls apart.

There's a variety of powers that can cause impairment (powers like Chaos Inducement and Jinx could do that), so you need to look at the nature of the power to known what it is.

Well Shadow himself is repeatedly described as being bad luck. The episode goes with that theme but it was decided on another thread that Shadow was only simulating bad luck do to him physically interacting with something that caused a chain of misfortune.

Welp, if isn't Jinx and he simply makes stuff malfuction just write something like "Malfunction Inducement (Can make objects malfunction and break apart)" or similar.

Ok, I guess that would work. Though I still believe Shadow has a form of bad luck consider what is directly stated and shown.

[1] At 1:20 Johnny tells Shadow to keep the portal open and Kitty calls Shadow bad luck and at 5:10 we see Jazz in the carnival looking at pitures and Johnny rides above her and he sees a truck and tells Shadow to go for the truck. At 5:40 Tucker states he isn't bad luck and then Shadow enters the truck and Danny states he knows who is (He's refering to Shadow). Shadow then breaks the handle of the truck which causes it to start driving down hill, it crashes into the rollorcoster, the trakes brake, the cart flys into the air and comes straight down on Jazz but Johnny saves her which was his plan...

Now can someone explain to me how in the hell could Johnny and Shadow know this all was going to happen it Shadow didn't have some form of probability manipulation?. Johnny sees Jazz in the carnivel looking at pitures and close by her is the truck, Johnny tells Shadow to go straight for the truck and Shadow does so. However all Shadow does is break the break handle. This starts a series of events that would be impossible for Johnny to know. First, the truck managed to hit the rollorcoaster and caused it to brake apart at the right angle to send the coaster flying into the air. They then half to account for Jazz being exactly where it would land which is impossible because she could have been anywhere and we see she has cotten candy so she moved from her orginal spot were Johnny first saw her and sent Shadow.

Bottom line is this pla is impossible. Johnny needed to get close to Jazz in order to move his plan forward but he could not have known Shadow breaking the break handle and causing the needed desruction and Jazz placing herself in the exact spot so he could save her. This is why I say Shadow has probability manipulation.

Reading the thread, I got confusion. I see the OP is saying that it's not probability manipulation and which Christian said it was Deconstruction, but the last post sounds like an argument that went back to saying it's probability manipulation.
