I really think that Amon has nothing to do personally with Aang or with anyone else from Team Avatar, it would be too easy to figure out, and from 7 episodes we probably won't be able to solve every mysteries. :) My theory is however that Amon maybe just blocking chi in a special way, that it seamingly permanent, but I'm not sure if he could really energybend. Although it's possible that energybending is something that anyone can learn, even non-benders, 'cause the Dragon Turtle didn't specified about this. Yakone was an important hint, but I don't think he has to do something with others, especially with Mako and Bolin, whose parent must have been slaughtered AFTER Yakon was dealt with. (As citizens, the boys would have known if the attacker was a random villain or Yakon.) Asami's mother was NOT killed by Yakon either, as Tenzin would have pointed this out at the conversation. (like: "You know Korra, it was Yakon who killed her, the one mentioned by Tarrlok today.") If Amon said the truth, then I think it might have been Yakon who slaughtered them, as he was probably one of the most powerful firebender at the time, just for the credit. This would be really cool as Aang stopped Yakon the greatest threat, but before his demise he "created" Amon by slaying his parents, just like a chain-reaction, so the threat lives on. (And if he was living on a farm, he probably would not have realised who Yakon was.)

Furthermore, if Amon DOES possess energybending, then it would be cool for him to have other energy-based attacks. :D Another thing that I'm sure of is Koh, the Face Stealer. In A:TLA he said that "We shall meet again.", which is more than enough to prove this I think. Koh is the oldest spirit in their realm, and we know that he punished Avatar Kuruk for abandoning his role (to protect both worlds), so in return he stole his fiancé through the Spirit Oasis. This means he can enter into the physical world, which means he might be able to manifest himself in another person too. Koh is amoral and strange beacuse of his hobby... but he was portrayed as the one who keeps order. Maybe he is angry with Korra for her lack of spirituality, and thats why he provided someone like Amon with supernatural powers. Basically in this new world spirituality is very forgotten.
