Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Martial Arts (Utilizes a mix of Eastern martial arts styles, specifically Chinese fighting styles), Weapon Mastery (Prefers to wield long range weapons), Enhanced Senses (Likely as potent as Raiden's, since he was aware of an "Earthrealm force" in the Netherrealm while sealed in his own amulet), Extrasensory Perception (Can sense emotions, scaling to Cetrion), Acrobatics, Magic (Uses dark magic), Flight (True flight), Immortality (Types 1 and 2), Acausality (Type 1. As an immortal, he exists outside the normal laws of time. In practice, this is the reason why the likes of Fire God Liu Kang was unaffected by his past self's injuries and why Dark Raiden was erased when his past self was brought forth into the timeline), Self-Sustenance (Types 1 and 2), Wields and is familiar with all of his amulet's powers, Unholy Manipulation (All of his powers are from the Netherrealm), Energy Projection (Can fire red colored beams that usually disintegrate targets, but it can also burn them if he chooses to do so. This beams can also activate the amulet from afar), Telekinesis (Can manipulate objects and opponents from afar, usually throwing them away from him), Teleportation (Can instantly teleport in a burst of magic.

Corrupted the Jinsei with his dark essence once he touched it reversing its life giving effects to the opposite), Weather Manipulation (The side effects of him corrupting the Jinsei released dark clouds and a shockwave that disabled the tech on Jacqui's plane), Telepathy (), Soul Manipulation (Said and demonstrated by Revenant Liu Kang to be able to consume souls, which in turn increases his strength), Necromancy (Scaling to Revenant Jade who mentioned him when she summoned reanimated dead Shaolin monks, likely using his magic), Weapon Creation (Can create bone weapons from his hands or scepter. When copying an opponent's special move, he may create an energy construct of the weapon used in that move), Explosion Manipulation (Can cause a spontaneous explosion on his opponent), Power Mimicry (Can steal one move from his opponent and copy it for a limited time), Shapeshifting (If the stolen move requires a different form to perform, he can simply morph into a suitable form for it), Power Bestowal (Some of his powers are seen in the hands of his followers, which might've been given to them by himself), Resistance to Time Manipulation (Shinnok's incapacitation was stated to be irreversible. Even though he was restored back to his place in his Bone Temple [located deep in the Netherrealm castle] by Kronika's time powers, he still remained as a decapitated head. Only a full rewind of the universe via the Hourglass can restore him back to his original form)
