Could you clarify?

Like. It is all one type of energy, it's just different forms of the energy. Like he could consume lightning and he would be able to use an electric like form of his energy. Or he eats a rock and he would be able to use an earth form. But he can choose to cancle the transfer of energy form. Because he doesn't want to change formswhen he eats food and drinks water. You know how the rule is that if the being has multiple powers, but each aren't as powerful as someone with one ability.
