Gravattack can control gravity to manipulate the weight and motion of objects, allowing him to suspend and levitate targets in the air, send them flying back or fourth, or slam them down to the ground with hand gestures. His control over gravity allows him to change its direction, allowing him to telekinetically send targets flying upwards or across the air as if they were falling. He can also place objects into an orbital track, causes them to fly in circles at various speeds. When using his powers, he emits an aura of hazy energy. He can even form this energy into walls, barriers and domes.

Gravattack can use the laws of general relativity to his advantage, and can reduce the speed of objects (or, in some cases, creatures) to nothing even if they were moving at the speed of light before. If he is not careful, however, this can create a black hole.^[1]

Gravattack can make matter or energy orbit around him whenever he retracts his limbs, giving himself the appearance of a planetoid sphere.

Gravattack can manipulate his own gravity in order to levitate, curling his body into a planetoid.

Gravattack possesses enhanced strength as shown when he punched a hole in the ground when trying to hit the Time Beast.

Gravattack has enhanced durability, as shown when he endured physical attacks from Fistrick's armor.

Gravattack can survive in space, as he is a living planetoid.

Weaknesses

• Constrained by large size
• Core approaching meltdown

If he takes large amounts of damage to his core, Gravattack may enter meltdown and explode.^[2]

Gravattack's large body makes it hard to move in small spaces.^[3]

Sudden changes of mass can throw off Gravattack's orbit.^[4]

Gravattack cannot stop someone from using energy-based attacks.^[5]

If Gravattack manipulates the gravity of an opponent or object enough, he can accidentally create a black hole. He is not able to undo this despite his impressive ability of creating it in the first place.^[1]
