Again, like some others, Ash’s powers were activated when Balam arrived to Earth. Unlike the remainder of his family, he was fortunate to survive.
While most would think Ash is a walking fireball, the energy he can manifest is pulled from an ancient source. Though that source remains undetectable, some speculate it could be as old as time itself.
For now, go ahead and say they’re fire powers, we won’t stop you — just know the professionals think there’s more than meets the eye on this front.
Thanks to this energy source, Ash can completely light himself ablaze. When “on fire,” the energy is powerful enough to propel him through the sky, allowing him to fly. He can conjure “fireballs” and the like — you know the deal.
