* WorfHadTheFlu: While it seems like Danny is more powerful than she was even at her prime, given that he can empower the Bats without even consciously realizing it while she couldn't, it's clear that she was barely holding on when she went after Danny in desperation. Besides the fact that she couldn't withstand even a basic ecto-blast, she was so weak that Danny couldn't distinguish her from the Ghost Zone's background energy.

Agent Alpha's office, white on white and with a shining chrome table, is within a building with metal wall that reflect the harsh fluorescent light. It echoes with the screams of their victims. They think all ghosts are monsters and need to be exterminated.

Instead, he makes the weights crash into the top of the machine's frame, bust through the frame, and scatter across the gym floor. One weight lands on the gym teacher's foot.

* DreamWalker: One of Danny's powers that he uses to enter Nora Fries' dreams and talk with her.
* YouKillItYouBoughtIt: Inherits the mantle of spirit of Gotham when the previous spirit tries to consume him for power in a desperate bid to help her people. Her weakness means that she can't survive even Danny's basic attempts at self-defense, so she [[PassingTheTorch begs him to help her people as she vanishes]].

to:

* ColorCodedEyes: His eye color changes between blue, green, and black. He appears almost exclusively as human in Gotham. Bruce has noted that his eyes are unusually intense in color and people link it to his ice powers, thinking him a metahuman. They're green when he's a ghost. And his eyes turn black when he uses his new Spirit powers.
* DreamWalker: One of Danny's pre-existing powers that he uses to enter Nora Fries' dreams and talk with her.
* {{Foil}}: Both he and Bruce have been shown in contrasting as well as paralleling scenes. One is a superpowered, [[HalfHumanHybrid half-ghost]], half-alive teenager vigilante from another universe; the other is an average, if very well trained adult human who's a father of several children and a local vigilante / credited hero who's been at the job for more than a decade. They're the first person of each group (Team Phantom and Gotham Vigilantes) respectively to make contact with the other one. They had a glimpse (or several in Danny's case) into the other's life. They're both suspicious of each other after being betrayed several times by people before; they're hypocrites who don't care about getting hurt while helping people, but can't bear to imagine their families and friends doing the same.
* AnIcePerson: He creates his own ice and snow that he can will into any shape. He can make it nearly indestructible, including resisting any kind of heat, and they have their use as physical attack. So far he's only used it as human, mostly to comfort children in distress.
* MySkullRunnethOver: He has gained a psychic link to a city that is home to millions of people and he's aware of every one of them. He regularly gets a headache because he can't shut the link down, which floods his mind with information. The amount makes it difficult to make sense of it except when he focuses hard. It's even more overwhelming when he goes ghost, but the information is much clearer on the other hand.
* OccultBlueEyes: Danny's eyes are an unusually intense blue and glow when he draws from his ice powers. (Crossing over with IcyBlueEyes.)
* PsychicLink: His mind is connected to every person living in Gotham. It's strongest with the Batfam (the most with Bruce), as when he makes eye contact with them, they sense glimpses of each other's feelings.
* TeleportersAndTransporters: He gains this as a new ability as Gotham's City Spirit. He can teleport himself and passengers to every location in Gotham, as well as between both the physical and the ghostly side of the city.
*
YouKillItYouBoughtIt: Inherits the mantle of spirit the Spirit of Gotham when the previous spirit tries to consume him for power in a desperate bid to help her people.

* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Danny's strength as Gotham's City Spirit surpasses Gothi's even when she was at her prime. He empowers several members of the Batfamily with some of his (modified) abilities without his knowledge. And he can add more if necessary like giving Dick [[HealingFactor super-healing]] after he was shot at.
