Theories

Theory Citations Notes
Monica's iPod is bugged. None. + The Company might want to take tabs on what she learns and what she does.

- That version of the iPod has no way of obtaining Internet.

+ Neither do people, but radio isotopes seem to work pretty well on them.
+ Furthermore, the Company could easily have modified the iPod. Even without modifying the existing electronics, a wireless bug could easily be hidden within the casing with little difficulty. If the existing electronics are modified, it would not need to have a very long range, as it could record data and simply transmit it to a hidden receiver somewhere the Company knows she will regularly go (her home, for instance).
Monica's ability is not bound to strict mimicry. She is able to unconsciously adjust a move to fit a certain situation. None. + If the knife Monica used to cut tomato flowers were even slightly longer or shorter than the one on TV, she would not have been able to use it.

+ She was able to adjust her parkour skills to fit to a specific location.
+ When Monica mimics Rey Mysterio's 619, her hands are in a different position.

Monica isn't part of Volume 3 because she isn't powerful enough to fight the villains. None. + Micah wants her to be a hero, but in season three, the villains are too powerful. So maybe so the writers don't kill her character, they just remove her from the storyline, and bring her back in another season/volume.

+ The villains in Volume 3, such as Knox and Flint, would most definitely kill her.

- Knox was frozen by Tracy, Flint may have been killed in Pinehearst, Arthur was shot, and even Sylar may be dead therefore "killing off" some of the biggest villains of the show. At the moment, the biggest known threat of Volume 4 is to be hunted down- becoming "Fugitives".

+ She may return in a future season/volume, because her character has potential to be a real good character.
- Rebellion, Part 1 established that Monica was fighting criminals in New Orleans as St. Joan up until at least the start of volume 4.

If Monica is super charged, she will be able to copy other people's ability. None. + She can copy difficult to almost impossible things.
All the things she copies are physically possible to her, she can only copy what she can physically perform, what superchaging this ability would do is unknown.
- The most common limitation of those with photographic reflexes is that they cannot perform anything outside of their physical ability, and it would be unlikely that the creators of the show would give her so much power. Also, her ability does not include the ability to modify her own DNA. However, it is concievable that she would gain the ability to enhance herself to the level of the person she watches, in the event that she became supercharged, without significant modification.
Rogue from X-Men had a similar ability.
Rogue could absorb not only powers but other skills as well, and her absorption was proportional to the duration of the physical contact required to absorb characteristics.
Should Monica somehow lose her ability, she still will be able to replicate the movements she has already learned. None. + Monica seems not only to remember a movement, but also to strengthen her muscles and tendons to perform it, e.g. she learns a skill. Some factors can stop her from using her ability, for instance mental manipulation or the eclipse, but these factors remove powers, not skills.
- It's been stated that Monica's physical fitness is what defines what she can and can't do, as a young woman, there are lots of things she can do, but if she reaches an advanced age, she won't perform gymnast movements anymore.
- Monica's ability allows her to use those abilities, she depends on her power to learn and use abilities, not just learn.
+ Monica can only mimic things that she is physically capable of, if she were to lose the power then it stands to reason that the talents she learnt would still be accessible.
Monica is dead. None. + She has been captured by Danko.

- West says she is elsewhere.

+ We don't know that West can see her.
+ Nana Dawson said they got separated. She could have been killed by now.
+ Micah states that Tracy is the only family he has left. Perhaps this is because Paula and Monica are both dead.
If you mean Paulette, Micah doesn't know she died.
- Micah only told Tracy that she had no one else, he never said that he had no one else but her. (Cold Snap)

- Molly says she knows where Monica is. Her power wouldn't be able to find her if she was dead.
