- Empathy:
- Telepathy: In spite of not being one of the eiders, Grodd's time trapped in the speed force gave him the psychic abilitie apes grow into with age.

Weaknesses

Generation Degradation: Over time, Gorilla City apes began losing their connection to the light; a name it's society coined for the Speed Force. Resulting in every new generation born after to degenerate into primal savagery.
Mental Lllness: Because of the division of telepathy in Gorilla City, Grodd is forced to bear the burden of collecting all the nasty, savage throughts of the entire city in other to keep Gorilla City calm and tranquil. Despite his acumen, Grodd was a degenerate savage who killed and ate the brains, often the whole, of victims like a vicious beast.
