==Delete Sections==
Since most of these sections are useless now that we have a name for the ability, shouldn't they be deleted? It's just junk now (And once we delete them, I'll delete this section.).--[[User:ERROR|ERROR]] 12:46, 11 June 2009 (EDT)
*Talk page sections are never to be deleted, only archived. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 13:07, 11 June 2009 (EDT)

== The Source of All Evil... kidding, but: ==
Why do people think Ando can give abilities? All he does is making them more powerful. -- [[User:Altes|Altes]] 08:46, 15 June 2009 (EDT)

== Avada Kedavra ==
Albeit red. -- [[User:Altes|Altes]] 04:00, 16 July 2009 (EDT)
**Matt and Daphne survived it. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 15:25, 16 July 2009 (EDT)
*** Yep, I meant that big red lightning thing. <s>Besides, Harry Potter survived it too. Twice.</s> -- [[User:Altes|Altes]] 01:34, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

== short circuit ==
is it possible that when [[ando]] attacked the gaurds at [[Matt Parkman]]'s house that he literaly overcharged their systems and short circuited them? [[he:Ando|Ando]] demonstrated a similar thing on a tazer in [[Episode:I Am Sylar|I Am Sylar]]. anyway if this is the case than I suggest a name change to simply supercharging which covers all aspects of his ability instead of just his power to charge abilities. --[[user:Tsmarg|Tsmarg]]
* How about melons in ''[[Baby Power]]''? He smashed them, and I doubt there are any systems within melons. -- [[User:Altes|Altes]] 12:51, 16 July 2009 (EDT)
**well what I mean by short circuit is that he somehow generated a blast, electric or other, that was strong enough to short circuit a taser or even a human. I would guess that the blast also has a concussive force as shown: when he blasts the guard, the guard is sent flying backwards. the concussive blast could also probably explode a melon. --[[user:Tsmarg|Tsmarg]]

== Ability supercharging is canon... ==

...but can I ask which episode it was stated in. I'd like to see it named by someone. Thanks if you reply. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 08:43, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
* Matt says in [[Dual]], "Your ability is like a supercharger". This is where the name comes from. {{User:Altes/Signature}}

== Comes from Star Wars? ==
You see, in ''Star Wars: Jedi Knight'' video game there's a Force power which allows to drain Force energy from opponents, and it looks like red lightning. On the contrary, Ando can strengthen others. Coincidence? {{User:Altes/Signature}}

==It's been called Red Lightning several times now==
Just sayin'... --[[User:Action Figure|Action Figure]] 23:04, 28 September 2009 (EDT)

== Although we're not calling it lightning... ==

... should we not put:'' '''Ability supercharging''' (also referred to a '''red lightning''') '', like it does on the [[Electric manipulation]] page. Ando has called it that more than once. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 12:58, 27 October 2009 (EDT)
:Fine by me. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 13:46, 27 October 2009 (EDT)

== Ability Forgotten? ==

Is it just me or are they just forgetting about andos abilty to supercharge? It seems to me the the writers wittled down his ability to just the red lightning part

--[[User:Lama098890|Lama098890]] 01:23, 10 November 2009 (EST)
* There is a rumor that the cause of the Earth splitting in two is Ando using his ability on Samuel. -{{user:barbedknives/sig}}01:30, 10 November 2009 (EST)

== Ando's Blast ==

Anybody else think '''Kamehameha''' when they see that??? I did in tonight's episode and I've only ever seen Dragonball Evolution and a few episodes of the Sayian Saga!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't help it. It looks like the Kamehameha.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 23:32, 11 January 2010 (EST)
*Yeah, thats what I thought when I first saw it in Season 3.--[[User:Ratclaws|Ratclaws]] 09:24, 12 January 2010 (EST)
**HADOUKEN! --[[User:Action Figure|Action Figure]] 16:13, 12 January 2010 (EST)

==Augmentative Energy Projection==

Ando can clearly use his ability on objects(Close to You), not just to augment people' abilities. He can also projects a red "energy" with this ability. What does anyone this about this?--[[User:Realistic|Realistic]]
*I like this name. Ability supercharging doesn't cover everything he can do.--[[User:Ratclaws|Ratclaws]] 09:33, 12 January 2010 (EST)
**We've always known he could project red energy, that's the first thing we saw him do in the future, only later we learned that every was used to enhance abilities. And we still didn't change the name of this ability. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 09:42, 12 January 2010 (EST)

==Charging==

I think charging could be an okay name for this ability. He "charges" abilities, "charged" Hiro's brain and that electronic device, and he "charges" red energyblasts. It seems to cover everything he does, and it isn't overly complicated.
First time poster here, be gentle :)
:I see no reason to rename, but if we had to rename it, I wouldn't oppose this name. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 11:19, 12 January 2010 (EST)
::This doesn't really cover his energy blasts. I think the Augmentive Energy thing is better.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 12:19, 12 January 2010 (EST)
:::It does if you consider that Ando is releasing charged-up energy. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 12:30, 12 January 2010 (EST)
::::I can see what he means though. You wouldn't think someone who has Ability supercharging could open up doors and screw with electronics. Here's an idea. Why don't we split the article with Ando having one ability and Hawking having another. We would call Hawking's ability Ability augmentation and Ando Supercharging, or whatever is appropriate of a name, because they do seem like very different abilities to me. --[[User:OutbackZack|OutbackZack]] 13:08, 12 January 2010 (EST)
::::: Splitting yes, but Supercharging isn't a good name for Ando's. They're abilities ''are'' different, but Supercharging just doesn't fit Ando's anymore.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 14:18, 12 January 2010 (EST)
:::: Good idea for the name! Works much better :) --{{User:Leckie/Signature 10}} 14:45, 12 January 2010 (EST)
::::::If Supercharging doesn't work then we could just call it "Red lighting". I know, lame, but it's often used in the show, and that's how visitors would search for his ability. --[[User:OutbackZack|OutbackZack]] 14:55, 12 January 2010 (EST)
::::::: Dumb idea. Red lightning describes this even ''worse'' than supercharging as that's not ''all'' it does. It encompases too little of his ability.
::::Supercharging actually does fit his ability pretty well. He's been called a "supercharger" on the show numerous times, his ability does supercharge others' abilities, and he appears to supercharge the energy around his hands to create "red lightning". (Note how even when passed out, he still "sparkles" a bit.) --[[User:Ricard Desi|Ricard Desi]] ([[User talk:Ricard Desi|t]],[[Special:Contributions/Ricard Desi|c]]) 15:03, 12 January 2010 (EST)
:::::Very good point. How do you feel about a split though? It seems to me that they have very different abilities and when they amplify others' abilities it's done very differently as well. Their abilities were even given a different name. Hawking's ability was called Ability augmentation by Sean Fallon, who was an employee of the Company at the time. --[[User:OutbackZack|OutbackZack]] 15:53, 12 January 2010 (EST)

== Ando's blasting ability ==

I think I get how he does that: he charges the energy he would use to supercharge someone into a blast of energy that he can fire. He's probably able to stun and kill if he wishes by it: so far he's displayed stunning, but if he charged enough energy into it, he could probably kill: ''that's'' probably how he killed Future Hiro.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 14:38, 12 January 2010 (EST)
