A very specific type of superpower. A '''Sizeshifter''' has the ability to [[CaptainExactly ObviousWhat It Says on the Tin|change their size]]. Usually, this starts off one way, such as only being able to [[Incredible Shrinking Man|shrink]] or [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|grow]]. Eventually, this starts to seem a little lame (unless the change comes with added [[Super Strength]], or other [[Required Secondary Powers]] in order to offset that pesky [[Square-Cube Law]]), and they probably end up being able to do both with an upgrade of some sort, or a [[Hand Wave]] about training.
 
Compare [[Make My Monster Grow]], where a character makes a monster grow to great heights.
