But that has nothing to do with what i'm talking about. The origin of sharingan powers is in the brain. Changing eyes doesn't change that, which is why powers are conserved even when eyes are switched. But Nagato doesn't have Madara's brain.

Obito on the other hand was able to mimic an Edo Tensei and gave Kakashi access to his powers, including Susanoo.

kinda agree. The reason Nagato couldn't use Susanoo because he doesn't know that technique and of course he didn't realize that his rinnegan is an evolution of EMS.
