Yeah, Kinda the giant leap that was made to create the magnet release on the article, kinda like the jump to judgement that Amaterasu is blaze release, even though no media has confirmed this. Which you later deleted my comment, and blamed me for it. This place seems beyond selective, almost too selective filled with contradictions. Shukaku in this wikia is stated to have "Magnet Release".

"But man the problem is he was extracted" So was Kakashi's Mangekyou, so were from the other ninja who died as a result of them being captured by the Akatsuki. I don't have a problem with this broken logic. But at least have the decency of keeping it consistent. Not this intangible meatball of "let's just toss it on the wall and hope it sticks. Bringing up Blaze Release is a poor comparison. Amaterasu "is" a Blaze Release technique. Sasuke & Itachi utilizes black flames to incinerate oppenents or anything he sees fit, which I believe the 3rd databook states; having control over it is a different technique altogether. There's NO broken logic there.

Fact is, we all assumed Magnet Release is what Gaara used to manipulate sand. Since the databook "disproves" it, and there was no evidence in the manga even implying so, why list it here? I say list sand manipulation in his unique traits section and leave it at that. By the way, Shukaku does have it but I don't think the beast ever gave Gaara access to the beasts abilites. Hell, the only time we've seen Gaara use Wind Release was when he was half-possesed by Shukaku. Everything else is databook confirmation.
