The Flash 4x23 Poll!

I agree with DK, I think It could be both. What if Devoe is now trapped in Ralph's mind just as Ralph was in his mind. And him touching the chair was really just to activate a failsafe and not a transfer of consciousness. I would really love that cause I personally didn't like how the great thinker went out.

DrWizarrd

I say yes; but residual only. He may not have the brain power to activate them by will but it'll make for a typical filler next season.

Laugh Data

I said no, just because he would be too OP

Of course he doesn't, and the 29% who say he does are being stupid. They're probably the type of people who would talk about Beebo constantly even if the poll had nothing to do with Beebo.

Nathan Mortenson

i like pickles

Chase Robert Dunn

It could be interesting that, if he does have them, he might also have DeVoe somewhere in his mind. I would like to see him return as a secondary villain, especially since being the main villain of the season kinda ended with a dud

Danny King

Ralph has Melting Point. If he’s still around next season, I’m sure there’ll be like a five second explanation of how he got rid of all of them over the three month break. Or they’ll base an episode around him choosing how and whether to give them up.

Bryan Matola

i don't think it would be a good idea for Ralph to have all of the bus meta powers but if he does he could use melting points power to give them to other people. it could be interesting to seethe team try to recruit new people who are worthy of the bus meta power.

I think he should still have them. His body and DNA should be the same, it’s just his consciousness that has overwritten DeVoe’s.

Dylan Carpenter

the way i see things happening is that Ralph in season 5 will find out the other bus meta's are actually all alive inside his mind and he no longer has the ability's they have but he can let them take over his body and when that happens he turns into them and can use only the power of the 1 that's using the body at the time

He will but only when the plot says he should have them, there will probably be some side effect to using them and he will take a long time to learn how to use them

Dan Banks

Powers may be linked to the mind+ dark matter stuff, a similar thing in heroes. So body doesn't matter.

Nope. Just back to the Rubberman himself B-)

concerning “thomas”: the name of caitlin-2’s brother was “charlie” and after hearing about him, caitlin-1 said she didn’t have a brother

Logically speaking he probably should, however I doubt they will simply let him have all those powers so they will have a reason for him no longer having, or at least having access to them.

Kevin Bartelen

He should as the dark matter was transferred to his body, but it is either going to be a convenient plot device next season or it will be written off so he doesn't have them anymore. Realistically there should be no reason as for why he wouldn't.

Berserk A Lac

When Ralph took over his body back, I feel DeVoe dead inside of him, and his powers vanished.

Welp, move Barry this is the Ralph show now.

I Am Groot

I feel like they will find a way to explain why he doesn't because otherwise he would be too op

Tucker Lobner

No I think he only has his original powers, having the bus meta powers would be too much for the show to give him, since he could just use them to prob stop most situations next season.

Cameron Mason

Plot for episode next season: Remnants of the bus meta’s personalities still exist in Ralph and he starts losing control and shape shifting into the various metas.

TB

They will probably say that the powers were destroyed along with Devoe, leaving Ralph with his original powers. Or maybe in one episode Ralph will go super saiyan and unlock all of the other bus metas abilities during a tough fight. (Doubt it thou)

Gezno

He SHOULD.....but I don’t think the show will do that.

Ragnarok

I feel like when Devoe transferred his consciousness to the chair, he transferred all of his other powers to the chair as well because how else would he had been able to use kilgores powers if not controlling Ralph

Matt

I hope the powers are still there and that next season Ralph has to find new people to pass them on to and make new hero’s to honour the bus meta’s they couldn’t save.

Able

Technically dibny dominated the mind so they SHOULD be there also.. but story wise I believe they won't.

julio morales

It should still be there. But probably storywise it would be better if it's not. Else it's a situation of: 'why didn't they do that?'

Flashback007

The dark matter was still transferred to his body so it should still be there

pong191

Since the powers transferred were linked to DeVoe's mind and not the individual bodies I would say no because DeVoe's mind was destroyed. However there is always the possibility that because of Ralph's ability to retain certain things that the powers still exist within him, but I doubt the writers would let him use them.

WhateverIFeelLike

Idk. It was stated that there was an increase in dark matter in the body so it must be biological on some level however it was never stated as to how these powers were sustained, through the mind or the body. If maintained through the mind then no but if it's the body then yes.

Harry Utton

I want to say yes but the writers most likely took the powers away to balance that character

AAA DATTERY

I think they left when he took back control of his mind.

Andrew Courtney

Nah.
