— Glen Lakin on Bluesky^[1]

History

History[]

Versus[]

Mind was used by Neuro during his fight against Bolobo to foresee his opponent's move, thus being able to avoid it when he struck before hitting him with a psionic blast.

Later, when the Ninja convinced him to help them find out about Chen's plan, Neuro attempted to get close to Chen to read his mind, but was stopped by Clouse. Taking advantage of the situation, Neuro instead read Clouse's mind and learned of the spell on page 149 of the magic user's spell book.

Spy for a Spy[]

Neuro used his powers and revealed that someone in Kai's room is a spy. Later, Skylor reveals she had copied the Element from Neuro and used it in an attempt to make everyone turn on him.

The Day of the Dragon[]

Skylor sends Neuro a telepathic message who then informs Griffin Turner, the Master of Speed, to tell the Ninja.

Radio Free Ninjago[]

Neuro mind tricks Killow and his men into going to Laughy's for karaoke in order for Lloyd, Skylor, Shade, Mr. Pale, and himself to get past them.

Decoded[]

As stated by Zane, Mind does not give its user a heightened intelligence.

Dragons Rising, Season 2[]

The Sword Shatters[]

Neuro attempted to use Mind to pull the solution to the puzzle from the mind of Roby or another Elemental Master who had already completed it.^[3]
