Also, Adaptive Energy is not an association of Energy Manipulation, it's a variation. Now you could have Adaptive Energy, although it being under variations doesn't mean you automatically have it (like how me having Dragonborn Physiology doesn't mean I can absorb the souls of dragons, or how manipulating an element doesn't mean you can manipulate all the variations of that element), but Superior Adaptation and the powers listed under it are associated with it, meaning that they're related to each other. This doesn't mean you can gain them from having Adaptive Energy. To illustrate this, look at Blood Manipulation. It's associated with Vampire Physiology for obvious reasons, but that doesn't mean that you'd get Vampire Physiology from Blood Manipulation.

Adaptive Energy deals with the energy being able to adapt, not you or your powers. The only thing you can do regarding you is energizing your body. The only thing you can do regarding powers is converting them into a currently unknown form of energy. Even if you do try that, the perfect doppelganger will be steps ahead of you. It's superior to you in every way, and this includes strategic planning. Also, a perfect doppelganger is another you, It has your personality, powers, memories, skills, experience, physical attributes, mental attributes, genes, and so on. I repeat and emphasis: it is another you. You are facing you, but a superior version of you. How superior is the perfect doppelganger? Enough to ensure victory.

Again, Plan C is assuming you have a physical form DNA can be taken from. If not, then there is still Plan A and Plan B. Honestly, I'd rather go with Plan B. It's simple and straight forward: it's 50:50, both sides are perfectly equal with each other and both sides have an equal chance of winning. The outcome might as well be decided by a coin flip (and I call heads). 1) Okay

2) Hmm, guess it's highly likely I get beaten but if we're looking at this scientifically, things that's completely made out of or is light or darkness doesn't have DNA, if it does it wouldn't be logical (unless it's fiction which isn't as convincing as real life physics) since Light and Darkness isn't even living, organic or biological so let's just assume I never had any physical form of DNA in the first place due to me being completely made out of light and/or darkness.

And from what you've said, if there was a perfect doppelganger that that's superior to in every way, would you lose the fight as well?

3)Okay

From what you've said, I basically have no way to take you down, thanks for finding out my flaws and ways to beat me but by doing so I have no ways to find your flaws or take you down, there's no non-almighty, non-absolute or non-Omni powers that I have and can think of to take you down because of your Reactive Adaptation, Extrasensory Perception etc. I'm guessing in this situation you are the Mary-sue/Gary-stu in power level now :P. If I were to face a perfect doppelganger of myself that's superior to me in every way, I would lose, plain and simple. I would first be defeated by the fact that this doppelganger is far more handsome than I am. I wouldn't let that bother me too much, but it'd still get to me because it's that realization of: "Oh my fuck... This is me, but a me that actually gave a fuck about his- my looks... Goddamn..." I would then be defeated in combat. I'd put up a hell of a fight, as would anyone, but I'd still get my ass beat three ways to Sunday and back.

Haha! Yeah, I guess I am the Gary Stu when it comes to power. I just have Dragonborn Physiology and Genetic Access, but I suppose I'm more OP than I initially thought.
