Although with their "control over the timeline" matched, repeated deaths make their grip in the timeline slip away, which can eventually result in them forgetting everything experienced little by little), Time Manipulation (Has the ability to SAVE into a point in time when particularly determined, and LOAD back in time to the last SAVE they made at will, even after dying), Social Influencing (via ACTing), Information Analysis (Can figure out the stats of an opponent and even their emotional state in some cases just by looking at them), limited Invulnerability (Becomes Invulnerable for a bit after being hit), Absorption (Could have absorbed Asgore's SOUL after defeating him), Healing (Can heal themself with various food items)

Resistance to Extreme Heat and Extreme Cold (Able to traverse both Hotland and Snowdin. Hotland is hot enough to instantly evaporate a cup and the water in it, while Snowdin's snow is cold enough to not melt in Hotland. Can survive the Mtt brand oven exploding), Soul Manipulation (Can take SOUL attacks as physical ones) and Poison Manipulation (Uneffected by the air in the CORE being filled with ozone)

Grew significantly in Determination between that and the GOH Asriel fight to the point were they didn't need LOADing to come back to life) | Varies up to Multi-City Block Level (Fought and eventually killed Undyne the Undying.

Intelligence: Above Average. Was able to solve every puzzle in the Underground. Was able to spare every monster they met in their journey including trained members of the royal guard.
Weaknesses: While extremely difficult, sufficient failure can make a user of Determination give up, though this can result in a Reset much earlier than the last SAVE. Someone with equal and higher amounts of Determination (as it exists in Undertale) will result in their ability to SAVE and LOAD being disabled. They can only carry 8 items in combat.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- DETERMINATION: The source of their power and abilities. The user is empowered by the feeling of determination, allowing it to strengthen their capabilities and use certain new powers.
- SAVE: When particularly determined, the user can "SAVE" the current moment in time, filling a file inside the game with information about their current process, LV, etc. This file may or may not a physical object that exists somewhere, as Photoshop Flowey was able to destroy Frisk's while potentially outside any physical land in the Underground, breaking the 4° wall and being outside the places one should "normally" visit in the game. A user may create a SAVE when really wanting to anywhere, finding the yellow flash shown in-game isn't necessary. Someone else with the same use of DETERMINATION and higher determination will result in this ability to SAVE being disabled from Frisk.
- LOAD: Turns back time to the last SAVE made. This can even be used after dying, which usually results in having one's SOUL shattering into pieces. Another user of DETERMINATION, Flowey, could LOAD after dying despite lacking a SOUL altogether. Someone with the same use of DETERMINATION and higher determination will result in this ability to LOAD being disabled from Frisk.
- Reset: Turns back time to the beginning of the game.
- True Reset: As before, but overpowering certain characters' ability to remember events after being reset.
- Hope: Frisk holds onto their hope for the future, significantly raising their defense. This technique was even capable of reducing damage from Asriel. Only usable if their DETERMINATION is high enough.
- Dream: Through sheer willpower and DETERMINATION, Frisk's dreams become a reality. Capable of fully healing them of all damage and negative effects. Only usable if their DETERMINATION is high enough.
- Heat Up: Frisk heats up the battlefield to be incredibly hot even in the context of Hotland, which is already so hot that even its outskirts are capable of instantly melting a styrofoam cup full of water. This move can stack if used multiple times.
- Cool Down: Frisk blows onto the opponent with a breeze so cold that it instantly erases all of the aforementioned effects of Heat Up no matter how many times it has been stacked.
- Flex: Frisk flexes their arms, making their physical attacks stronger for the remainder of the fight. Doing so multiple times will cause Frisk to flex harder, increasing their attack even more, however we have only ever seen this move performed 3 times in a row.
- Clear Mind: Increases their DEF by 1; if they are inflicted with a status condition such as dizziness or confusion, it increases her DEF by 2 instead and removes the condition.
- Sing: Frisk sings the song that Shyren taught them. Makes the target sleepy the first turn it’s used, the second turn it’s used the target falls asleep. Upon them falling asleep, Frisk can attack the opponent for double damage. The opponent will only wake up once attacked.
- Stare: Frisk glares at a magical object, weakening its power. If used twice, the object will be incapacitated.
- Draw: Frisk draws something, which then comes to life.
Key: Neutral/True Pacifist Route | Genocide Route
