Electrokinesis was the elemental power to manipulate the electricity in its various forms, such as technology, or to summon a lightning from the sky on any target to varying degrees.
Overview[]
Electrokinesis was the elemental ability to create, control and manipulate electricity and lightning in its various forms. It can be used to summon a lightning from the sky from anywhere. Merpeople can cause explosions in electronic devices that depends on electricity, like cellphones. It was the amplified version of Hydro-Thermokinesis that merpeople received in any active Moon Pool during a rare planetary alignment known as the Elemental Moon, as well one of the most dangerous powers a merperson possess.
History[]
In "Stormy Weather", Rikki looks at the full moon and swims to Mako Island with the girls and was in the Moon Pool during the special planetary alignment which magnifies her original power to Electrokinesis and ends up making a lightning storm. This can be made stronger with the help of her fellow mermaids. With the combined the amplified elemental abilities of Emma , Cleo and Rikki can create a storm that is supremely powerful and very dangerous. With their new abilities especially Rikki has the most dangerous power. Rikki doesn't seem to use this power much in "Season 2" other than a few times and it is seen a little bit during "Season 3". She mainly used this power on the wall of the Moon Pool. She also used this on Ryan's walkie-talkie. The hand movement for this is the same as before, however suddenly opening the palm in the chosen direction when summoning lightning, this may signify the sudden release of energy needed when conjuring lightning.
In "Battlelines", Rita Santos and Nixie are shown using this power. Rita is shown using this power creating a storm in a jar when teaching the girls and Nixie is shown using this ability when she creates the storm in a jar as well. In "Betrayal", the Trident can control lightning. In "Stormy Seas", Sirena and Ondina have a contest of mermaid powers and after Ondina whipped up a storm over the ocean, Sirena used it against her and conjured lightning.

Combined Atmokinesis[]
This is a supremely powerful combined ability that only Cleo Sertori, Emma Gilbert and Rikki Chadwick have shown to possess. When three mermaids combine their powers of air and wind, ice and snow, and lighting and electricity grants them complete control over the weather and its various elemental aspects. This is first seen in "Stormy Weather". They have shown the capability to create even stronger thunderstorms, and electrical storms and have greater control over them.
Atmokinesis[]
Atmokinesis is the power that all natural merpeople have. It is the ability to control and manipulate the weather, particularly storms to various effects. With this elemental power, merpeople can change and manipulate the various aspects of weather at will.
