| Jagdish could be said to have a form of pyrokinesis - however, he's fully unaware of this ability, despite its potency. It's not a form of pyrokinesis that comes with much flame or light at all - it's more of a capability to turn arbitrary objects to ashes and melt metals, much akin to the fate of things that end up burnt by Thorn itself. There's nothing subtle about it. | Jagdish could be said to have a form of pyrokinesis - however, he's almost fully unaware of this ability, despite its potency.

There's nothing subtle about it. Jagdish's knowledge of this comes solely in the form of being able to heat metallic items he's conjured up with minimal additional thought - the expense is so minute that he doesn't really consider it a separate process at all. |

| Creatures born on Sehto capable of the emotion of trust (i.e. chiefly pokémon; not, for example, non-pokémon insects) tend to bestow it upon him without any overt cause, on instinct. Creatures that have lived on Sehto for a significant amount of time, but that weren't born there, still do, but to lesser degree, proportional to the amount of time they've (not) been there. | Creatures born on Sehto capable of the emotion of trust (i.e. chiefly pokémon; not, for example, non-pokémon insects) tend to bestow it upon him without any overt cause, on instinct. Creatures that have lived on Sehto for a significant amount of time but that weren't born there still do, albeit less so, with the degree of reduction proportional to the amount of time they've lived elsewhere. |

| By necessity, he's quite aware of this, though he doesn't know that he could deepen it if he wished, and extend it to those who don't feel it by instinct. He could, with some effort, turn all of Sehto into de-facto minions willing to do his bidding, simply by merit of the ground they walk on and rely on. | By necessity, he's quite aware of this, though he doesn't know that he could deepen it if he wished, and extend it to those who don't feel it by instinct.

| Furthermore, he has a gift (if he chooses to use it) to determine if someone is lying - a very mild form of telepathy. He could technically push this one further, but he's never registered the ability as a psychic one, just as a particularly fine-tuned empathy, so he hasn't thought to try. If he did think to push it further, he could probably uncover the whole web of emotions in his victim's mind - and with some calm analysis dissect and interpret the whole thing until it spoke to him of motivations, virtues and vices. | Furthermore, he has a gift (if he chooses to use it) to determine if someone is lying - a very mild form of telepathy.

| | A product of this weak telepathy is his ability to understand pokémon unmistakably. Understanding pokémon is not a Thornspirit exclusive ability - regular human beings can learn to understand pokémon quite intimately, but that's usually per-pokémon and based on experience with said pokémon (such as [[character:Dakarai N'Sehla]] with [[pokémon:Iris]] and [[character:Keith Sirius]] with [[pokémon:Keith's Raichu|his Raichu]]), whereas it's more instinctual with Jagdish. |

| The last trick is superficially related to the first, though he rarely uses it unless pressed: Much like Mew or Mewtwo, he can create a psychic light: An orb of faint orange hue like a tiny, dim star. He used it 'frequently' during his first years as a gym leader in Taqnateh, but after being accused to be a pokémon in disguise on four separate occasions, has decided that it makes him feel too inhuman. Instead, he asks Mew to be his light for him. | The last trick is superficially related to the first, though he rarely uses it unless pressed: Much like Mew or Mewtwo, he can create a psychic light: An orb of faint orange hue like a tiny, dim star.
