Gomez And Pugsley Addams Powers Explained In Wednesday 

Do you think they will show their powers in Wednesday Season 2? Comment your thoughts below!

You missed one HUGE detail; we know exactly what Gomez's powers are due to the 1960s TV show. It was always super subtle (due to the special effects budget), but he DID have a power he regularly used on that show. Specifically he had a habit of popping cigars in his mouth, and they would light themselves for him. Now look at his brother Fester; in the old show he would put a lightbulb in his mouth, and it would turn on. This was later expanded to full on electrokinetic abilities, so it's natural to assume that, expanding Gomez in the same way, would result in pyrokinetic abilities. Fester is a lightning rod, and Gomez is a firestarter. This could even extend into Pugsley and explain his initial fondness for explosives; he knows he's likely on his way to having powers like his father. Basically, while the female Addams are psychics, the males are elementalists.

Pugsley's power, I believe, invincibility. I vaguely remember in the live action tv show, Wednesday loved putting him through it. And he was fully participant in it all.

Their powers have always been on display. Gomez is basically a Leprechaun. He is extremely lucky to the point death avoids him. He is not impervious to pain; He relishes in it. Pugsly is literally invincible. That is why he likes explosives; He can't be harmed by him. THOSE are their powers and always have been.

Pugsly can't be hurt or killed. That's why Wednesday was always allowed to do horrible things to him without anyone worrying about him being injured or killed. Gomez is thrilled by almost dying. He's like Domino from Deadpool 2. Shit just works out for him and he comes super close to death without dying. Plus he's extremely well endowed. How else could he get Morticia.

I've heard it said on the internet that Gomez is something of a necromancer. It was suggested that he had resurrected not just Uncle Fester, based on Fester's corpse like appearance and Frankenstein-like relationship with lightning. But also Thing and Lurch. Remember Lurch was almost a zombie in the TV series. And Thing could've simply been one of Gomez's earliest attempts. I've not heard anything about Pugsley but the fact he's survived everything Wednesday has inflicted upon him I think he might have the indestructibility of a typical horror movie slasher like Jason for example, or Michael Myers.

I think Gomez is a Leprechaun. He has luck on his side. It is never explained how their family is ultra rich without having any business. The Necromancy theory with Lurch and Thing, I think is more of Morticia ‘s doing than Gomez. Her name relates ro death, so it should be in her “realm”. For Pugsley, I think it is immortality or hyper-healing. Wednesday (in the movies) always seem try to find a way to kill him. It maybe because she is trying to check the extent of damage her brother’s body can handle so that she would know how/when to protect him.

Pugsley has an incredible tolerance to pain, if not invulnerability! Wednesday has always been seen torturing pugsley to see how far she can take it without him getting hurt... At this point he is too young to fully realize his abilities.. which is why Wednesday sticks up for him when others take advantage of him! I believe we'll see more of ugly utilizing soon

Another nugget you've missed is Ophelia Hall in Nevermore, is a nod to Morticia's twin sister who has a double throat and well known singer in the 60's show, and also was Gomez's first intended fiancé, that is until he saw Morticia....

In the addams family movies Morticia literally stops Wednesday in her tracks, takes the kitchen knife off her and hands her an executioner style axe. Safe to say Pugsleys power is definitely invincibility. No doubt about it that lad can face anything, his only weakness is his emotions. He can self sabotage just by being insecure.

Gomez has super good luck and Pugsley is indestructible. The Adam's family, and Gomez in particular, always get away with whatever they do and maintain there wealth, in both the films and shows. Even when things look bad everything works out in the end. Pugsley can't be hurt or killed. In the films and shows he was always "playing" with Wednesday by getting electrocuted, blown up or executed and was always just fine. In the netflix show Wednesday is always protecting him so he hasn't realized his power.

One other ability you could argue Gomez having to the ability to change probably, it has always been shown that he is amazingly lucky, sometimes even to his disadvantage. There was an episode back in the 90’s animated show I remember that Gomez was faced with that what ever he does or tries he succeeds at even if it was something he had never done or tried before so he set out to find one thing he could fail at and it wasn’t until ‘Tish showed him that his failure is that he fails to fail. I think that would be a great power to show in season 2 of Wednesday.

I strongly believe that we will be able to see both Pugsley and Gomez Addams powers in Season 2 or 3 of the Wednesday Netflix Series. I can't wait for Season 2 !!!

In the “Addams Family” movie Pugsley was electrocuted by Wednesday in an electric chair and he did not die. So I think it is safe to say he is impervious to at least electricity perhaps like his Uncle Fester.

I gotta say, I love how uncle Fester’s power calls back to his lightbulb lighting ability from the movies

I also remember that the Addams had a baby boy in the last movie in the 90's. I wonder what happened there?

Gomez can light objects with his mind, as he did with cigars in the original sitcom. Maybe he couldn’t use his fire ability fighting Morticia’s stalker because it was raining. Absurd Luckiness is also something we see him exhibiting in the cartoon, like his inexplicable wealth that never runs out, and how his investments never fail, no matter what they are.

Considering how much Wednesday tortures him through the later versions, I'd say high pain tolerance or like some sort of healing abilities could be a possibility. Someone else mentioned invincibility which makes a lot of sense from observing their interactions over the entirety of the franchise

I'm not sure what Pugsley and Gomez Powers will be in Wednesday but I believe they're invincible or close to it. In many iterations of The Addams family they were killed and severely injured several times but always lived without a scratch on them. That's based off the original black and white TV show and both of the movies from the '90s.

It's kind of been hinted that Pugsley is kind of like Uncle Fester cuz if you look at Uncle Fester he's into explosive he's an inventor he has that electrical ability and I do believe in the iteration where Christina Ricci wears playing Wednesday they hinted heavily that Pugsley was very much like Uncle Fester I think they even had him shave his head and dressed like him too

If Gomez can walk up and down walls, is agile and strong, he is basically spiderman.

My theory is that the Addams "power/curse" is being a weirdness magnet. Anything spooky or dangerous that's happening WILL happen to them, if not already then soon. So they constantly train from an early age to defend their lives at any moment, and escalate the lethality as well. As a result, they pick up skills more quickly and easily than the average person. They also seek out anything weird or macabre to understand it and catch anything going on before it becomes a bigger problem for them (hence Wednesday obsessively investigating the monster attacks). This helps explain their overall love for anything creepy and monstrous. They're also often skilled at witchcraft (though witchcraft is more a skill than a "power," as we see Laurel basically doing it). This is all pure evolution coming from their weirdness magnet trait over generations - any Addams who didn't obsess over survival skills and death all met horrific ends long ago (which their descendants proudly talk about).

I will point out that in the 90s movies they are all pretty much unkillable. Fester walks out of an exploded house when he was holding the bomb when it went off and he is unharmed (just dirty from the dust). I think its safe to say they are all some form of invulnerable and immortal. I mean at the end of the 90s sequel they are strapped to electric chairs and seem either bored by it or excited to see if it works. And we know its enough power to literally turn a human body to ash.

I also think Pugsley has the same power as Gomez in that he's hard to hurt. In the TV show and movies you always see Wednesday doing some kind of torture on Pugsley.

Goody Addams is Gomez's ancestor so both Morticia and Gomez have witch ancestry.

I LOVE that everyone in the comments actually knows what their unique abilities are!

It'll be interesting to see what the netflix take on Gomez's power would be. In the 90's show: Pyrokinetic (he lights his cigar with a snap of his finger and on several times lights people's clothes and curtains on fire with too). Incredible luck (money and luck seems to be attracted to Gomez. He finds gold coins and suitcases full of money almost pops up in random places). Near indestructibility (Gomez loves playing with dangerous toys, especially his exploding trains) Pugsley, so far, only saw his near indestructibility in the CN show. Perhaps near indestructibility is a trait of all male Addams? Fester has it too.

Pugsley is invincible. That's why in the movie Wednesday is always doing something to him like electrocuting him or shooting an apple in Pugsley's mouth with an arrow etc...

my husband thought it might be something like this. Except Pugsley and Gomez doesn't die but can be hurt but bounces back easily.

I think the high endurance to damage to the degree that most pain is actually enjoyable to them is a family trait but other abilities such as Wedsnday's visions, empathy to more dangerous animals and such is given by Morticia's side of the family while fester and pugsly share more similarities hence a similar body type and penchant for explosives so perhaphs pugsly may develop electric abilities, who knows, perhaphs fester's abilities tie into the more necromancer part of the family. Gomez is definitely his luck, in the original show he made a lot of money on Wall Street in ridiculous stocks that had no business succeeding but when he invested they became profitable. Also in the Addams family values the baby which took after him the most seemed to have inherited the incredible luck as no matter what danger the baby was put in things would domino into the best possible outcome for him.

We appreciate all of your hard work and effort. God bless you.

Gomez, Fester, and Pugsley have a healing factor that heals them from wounds and makes them impossible to kill. In the final episode of Wednesday Goody used the last of her energy to activate Wednesday's healing factor and boosted it to a higher level. Now Wednesday has her Raven powers and a higher level version of the healing factor that usually only the males in the family have.

I'm a little confused, because Wedneaday got her MOTHER'S ability, but that the last Raven was an Addams.... so does that mean that Morticia is also a decendent from Goody Addams?

I always assumed that Puglsleys ability was that he was unkillable

pugsley looks like young gomez addams

Wednesday must be a queen of the underworld like Lilith and like her mom, both immortal. The name Morticia literally means she takes the dead to their final resting place. Lurch is definitely a Frankenstein coherent zombie.

If he is a "witch doctor" maybe he bought the butler back to life thats why he rides in the front with him.

Pugsley is also immune to pain and electric shock Gomez is also a fencer and an acrobat

I think the fact that you completely left out Fester and his powers was a huge oversite.

Great video dude keep up the great work

Pugsley was perfectly cast.

Pugsley also has high pain tolerance considering he says "I never thought I'd miss being waterboarded so much."

I will say, while Goody Addams did/does have power (with even Morticia referring to her as a powerful witch), Wednesday's power was directly stated to come from her mother's side of the family as Morticia also has visions, though hers are generally more positive and less powerful than Wednesday's due to the whole Dove/Raven situation.

I always thought Gomez had some form of magic given the fact it seems like he comes from a from a family of witches (Goodie and his mom).

Wednesday's mother, Morticia, was captain of the fencing team.

I recall having seen Pugsly dressed as uncle Fester and doing the lightbulb in the mouth trick

Gomez and Pugslys abilities can be seen on the animated movie

This is a good question. I never thought of it. Now that I have, I think that Gomez and Pugsly are basically regeneratives, like Wolverine but not as cool and without the claws. In all the series and movies how many times have we seen Wednesday stick Pugsly in electric chairs, and guillotines. How many times has Pugsly set off explosions and not been harmed. How many times in the original series did Gomez go through rack sessions for his back that he actually enjoyed. You are probably thinking right now, "But in Wednesday we saw Gomez with a broken nose in the flashback from that when you was accused of murder.". Yes, but in Wednesday we also see that Wednesday shows REAL protective feelings for Pugsly and that she actually cares (in her way). I think that Gomez and Pugsly regenerative powers start small and grow as they are injured. That the more they are hurt the faster they heal. That would mean that all those times we see Wednesday putting Pugsly in torture devises was to increase the rate that he would heal. The more he is injured, the faster he heals. The more he is hurt the less pain he feels. That is what I think. How about you?

Captain here: based on the comic Pugsley is not invincible, he only has a strong body and a strong immune system in which he is immune to all poisons. If it's an online game, the simpliest explaination is that Pugsley is a Tanker or a tank. Opposite to wednesday where she is the one who inherited Goody Adams ability. In the comics, anyone who knew Goody Adams is feared, Lycans vamps undead. Goody Adams is the most powerful esper and Pugsley and Wednesday are her Direct descendents or bloodline

Isn't Pugsly the indestructible boy

Gomez and Pugsleys powers explained: We don't know! Great video 🤣

Both pugsly and Gomez eat potpourri with no apparent Ill effects in this series. Even like it, which is no easy task lemme tell you

3:25 there was this cartoon version of Pugsley that was "streached" by Whendsday in a medieval machine....maybe that can be one of his abilities...like a rubber man.

I wonder if Pubert will make an entrance. I loved his little mustache

It was shown in one Of the 90's movies that Puts let could survive an electric chair. That is some sort of power.

Not every outcast possess powers. Some goes to nevermore because of their famillies ideologies like the addams's for instance, who have a taste for macabre and the Frump's for morbidity. It could be argued that they have power, but I honestly believe that the Addams are one of the "normal" ones, having their members exhibiting rarely powers. However, it is mention that their familly always had a strong connection with sorcery and magic.

I have a feeling that Gomez and Pugsley are one of the most powerful overall (if we refer to past variations of them)

This Pugsly might be the most adorable in one.

Gomez's power is romancing a beautiful woman like Morticia.

Yeah I hope season 2 dives into what Gomez abilities are. I think Gomez has to do with Luck and Puggsly being indistructible.

Powers.... Pugsley: Moping. Gomez : Groping.

In the Addams Family (1991), it is strongly suggested that Pugsley is repeated killed by his sister (electric chair, arrow shot in mouth). Also, his skin seemed impenetrable to bear traps.

I think their power that most the family has is a form of immortality but with aging. Think of all the mortal wounds they have sustained yet are fine soon after. This would explain a lot. The tolerance to pain would be caused by becoming desensitized from the many injuries they survive though out their lives.

Yeah Gomez seems more like he has supernatural levels of good luck perhaps he subconsciously effects probability around him.

The grandmother in the original series and the movies was a witch, talented at spells. Maybe one or both of the kids enjoy this ability in future seasons

i remember seeing an Addam's family movie on tv, and at some point Pugsley can be seen crawling on the walls with white glowing eyes.

In the older adamas family movie they show wednesday putting pugsly in an electric chair and other execution devices as well as talking about burying him alive, something tells me that pugsly is REALLY hard to kill.

He has to have a tolerance to pain being all the tricks and things that Wednesday put him through in the movies and other stuff. She was always showed having him tied up performing "tests" on him in the movies and television show so he has to have some kind of tolerance to pain or at least that's how I feel.

The casting of the Addams family is absolutely AMAZING!!

It's implied that Gomez and Pugsley have both either taken tremendous injuries that should have killed them, but barely did anything, or that they were somehow extremely lucky in dodging getting actually hurt. These events normally happen off camera. We have also seen Uncle Fester zapped with large amounts of electricity, and survive massive explosions that should have ripped him to shreds. I would say they all have a Deadpool like healing factor or just are generally immune to certain types of trauma.

Pugsley can crawl on ceilings and walls too. Lile Gomez can walk on walls.

I thought Gomez was a wizard as he has bewitched tisch. Pugsley is supposed to be invincible

In one of Charles Addams' cartoons, the character we know as Gomez (Addams didn't originally provide names for the characters) is shown to be a werewolf as he transforms from man to wolf in a planetarium which displays a full moon.

So, 1st off, in the original series, Pugsley was supposed to be the older sibling. He LOVES explosives and is fearless when it comes to animals, he's also supposed to be highly destructive and more than capable of turning a group of bullies into whimpering babies. So, the show TOTALLY got Pugsley wrong, other than him fishing with handgrenades. They got Gomez wrong too, John Aston played him as gleefully maniacal, having a love for toppling politicians and having a huge network of witch doctors and voodoo hougans, he's also supposed to be completely fearless. So, again, the Wednesday show got Gomez wrong as well, as he should have been overjoyed at being arrested and looking forward to being his own lawyer in court.

For pugsley look in the 2019 animated movie when he was crawling on the walls when Margo arrived

Something tells me Gomez's power is something that balances out Morticia's dove. They are never really apart, and the INCREDIBLY RARE times they are Morticia seems to become slightly unstable in the mental department the longer the distance happens. Gomez also has a lot of charm-enough that most people around him it takes a while for them to be able to tell if his intentions are really a joke or not (until you're in the house, he's like a spider unwittingly inviting something for tea). Pugsley does have a power besides sadistic love of explosives and chainsaws-pain tolerance-seriously-an electric chair from Wednesday is "play" for him. Something tells me there's more than just visions and spirit manipulation to Wednesday-and her homicidal tendencies (sorry Enid, but your defensive statement is only true on those she's willing to trust). Also, are we sure Tyler isn't a counterbalance to her darkness? She did just stomp on his master's face. Xavier-he'd need to step up to match her darkness, Enid breaks through by being bubbly and Eugene just barely makes it.

I like how author does ZERO research, throws some stupid claims and makes me waste 4 minutes for nothing. Truly deserve 700k views

I have seen all the Adams family shows throughout the years and what people said about invincibility makes a lot of sense to me. I also think they are a family of casters though not so powerful that gives someone like Doctor Stange or the Scarlet Witch a hard time. I think being clairvoyant as well runs in the family. As for the family's ability to cast curses and other spells you probably look through the use of using rituals not casting from thin air like Doctor Stange.

Based on a particular hint in the show, Gomez could be descended from Aztec seers...possibly from the line of Moctezuma

Raul was the best Gomez ever!!

Gomez has heightened senses and reflexes. He has high pain tolerance and possibly a healing factor. He constantly fights with Fester (a human electrical battery) and Kitty (a friggin LION), plays with swords, knives, dynamite and other explosives. Though guileless, he might be a tactical genius... Pugsly is a nigh invulnerable masochist , he is constantly being tortured and plays with explosives and seems to enjoy when Wednesday tortures him. I believe all the Adams have heightened sensitivity and are attuned to the spirit world...

pugsley is already obvious, wednesday has been trying all kind of murder and deaths on him, he is basically immortal

You forgot that Wednesday tortured Pugsley for fun. She has even electrocuted him in an electric chair.

in the new animated movies Pugsley crawls around on the walls kind of like spider man. And loves blowing up things.

Pugsley survived the electric chair in the 90's movie. And there was a scene of him and Wednesday holding an ariel during a thunder storm.

My guess would be Gomez is some sortve necromancer, who plays with bringing the dead back to life and commanding them..Lurch being his main undead.

'Kind-of like those mystics that sleep on beds of nails...

In the old episodes I never seen them as having powers just strange. But them having powers makes more sense.

They use the term “outcast “ for any supernatural but I have a theory of what they are. Obviously they aren’t full human (though they may have married into some) but I think they descend from the Fey, specifically the unseelie

The scooby doo episodes were my first experience with the Adam's family. I'm so down for this

The most unexplained scene i remember was from the 1991 film when both Wednesday and Pugsley put up a swordfight show and injured eachother in a way that gave the audience a good bloodbath. Only thing i can relate this to is Deadpool's healing factor.

Pugsley’s power is that he is invincible which means like nothing can hurt you.

When I was younger, I used to think Mortica was a vampire. I realise that's not the case now. I only put together that she is a psychic from the Wednesday show. Until watching the video and reading the comments I didn't think Pugsley and Gomez really had any abilities and that they were just humans with the taste for the macabre. Necromancy and invincibility kind of make sense though.

I like how pugsley look similar to Raul Julia!!!

You're forgetting about Uncle Fester, probably the most gifted of them all. While we all know he's able to generate electricity, he also has magnetic abilities. Uncle Fester also has a high tolerance to pain, as in old episodes he would take a lot of damage and simply walk it off. Seriously, he once caught a bullet with his mouth. In other instances he's caused explosions in a closed room, with him in it. In the new Wednesday show he claimed to drop in on Gomez from the ceiling, possibly implying his ability to also walk on walls? Or maybe the guy is just good at climbing. He's also known to infiltrate banks and steal valuables, so clearly he knows how to get around. Considering he's related to Gomez in the show (Once was related on Morticia's side but in most adaptations he's Gomez' brother. In this adaptation, I'm going to assume he's related to Gomez since he speaks about him like a brother.) is related to Uncle Fester, the two sharing abilities isn't far off. And if these abilities are anything like genetics, which have been proven already to carry on throughout the ancestry, Wednesday and Pugsley have definitely not fully awaked their powers. As someone who grew up reading and watching The Addams Family, I'm incredibly excited to see what a modernized version of the family brings!

Well I think there is a slight problem with that because it's shown that the powers are genetic shown with Enid and her family with the werewolf ability also shown with mortisha and Wednesday with the visions so it would only make sence if pugsly and Gomez to have the same power or the same as Wednesday and his mother

i so want them to bring back his ability to walk up and down walls that is so cool

A power scaling video about the addams family

There were a number of 'running gags' about Gomez' powers in the 60's TV versions: Gomez was shown several times tucking a lit cigar into his vest pocket and, later in the day, pulling it out again still lit. He's also shown reality-warping powers with his model train layout and a bunch of his dead-but-not-quite-dead hunting trophies. He's got a tendency to acquire items that are magical - like about half the stuff in his house - whether he knows at the time that they're magical or not. Finally, magical curses don't seem to affect him, ever. This of course is all in addition to absolutely ridiculous physical speed (i recall him 'thumbing' through a date register at a speed that actually had his hand blurring), absolute perfection in physical skills such as fencing, absolute perfection in aiming and throwing, etc. Surprising though; he's not as physically strong as daughter Wednesday. When she was six (and portrayed by Lisa Loring) she demonstrated several times that she could lift him over her head and throw him across the room.

I hope that the driver have a power too lol
