Talk:Energybending/@comment-75.206.146.168-20120613043044

Wanted to address something, since this gets thrown around a lot:

Lots of things get cut out in editing. Just because they decided to use the technique that would later become Energybending, it doesn't mean they kept everything about the ability the same. Energybending was conceived of as a technique only available to the Avatar, but that doesn't mean that's true in the show.

Also, as of Yakone and Tarrlok, we now know that "freak of nature" is a valid explanation for someone seemingly breaking the rules of Bending.
