I vaguely remember someone mention his ability to retain the powers of his victims, upon his introduction.
His original powers were TP, TK, and Pyrokinesis. Recently it's been revealed that if he's next to someone when they die, he absorbs their psyche and powers if they have any. He's got like 100,00+ personalities. And he pulled out several powers in his recent fight with Sunspot and the others, like Super Speed, a prehensile tongue, Super Strength, etc...

Legion always had the ability to retain powers of his victims. I suggest you read New Mutants v1 #25-onward.
Granted it was not well explained. But it was mentioned. So I am not surprised for him, to make use more abilities since it was previously established in his background.
What I meant when I said recently, I meant in the arc where Dani gets stuck in Legion's head, and Magick goes in to save her. They actually say that if he's next to you when you die, he absorbs not only your powers, but your personality, and whoever is holding the teddy bear is in control.
And why are you suggesting that to me, Survivor's the one who disagreed with you.

recently he has hundreds of powers and hundreds of captive minds, those powers though could just be evidence of his versatility with those same three powers (restructuring matter, travel, and what not) just speculation, or he just ligitimately absorbed mutants and took their powers.
I said "change" reality, not "warp". Aunt May can change reality by baking cookies. Legion can change it by actually changing timeline, instead of creation of parallel dimension. And
Every new power he's manifested is one of his victims
It's already been proven, the little girl that Magick and Dani save, she says that he gains a new power if he's next to someone when they die, implying that a bunch of his personalities are victims of his whose abilities and psyches he absorbed so he could use their powers effectively.
Manipulating his genome is not something he's proven capable of doing.
He had 3 main powers, TP, TK, and PK, each was controlled by a different personality. His main personality finally gained control and accessed his time manipulation and teleportation powers.
Things like Lycanthropy, super strength, super speed, is not something he can gain from any of those powers.
BTW, making cookies does not change reality.

I suggest we just settle this with scans of the issue in question. Latest of the New Mutants, i suppose.
P.S. Sure it does. Before you made the cookies, reality hasn't cookies, but when you've made them - ta-dam! the change!
