Abilities

Shinichi is a gifted child, knowing that he is a very great detective due that he is studying a lot of times in his father library and reading detective novels all the time. Shinichi was training himself to be a great detective, and doing so by sometimes taking Ran with him to explore new things, and usually came back all dirty^[46] or by taking Ran somewhere during the night which causes them trouble with their parents^[47][48]. Evenly so, Shinichi is also a great speaker, a person who is very good with words^[49] and speaks fluent English and
understands very quite well^[50][51]. Shinichi has also more impressive skills but also weaknesses, as known, Shinichi is tone deaf, which he has an inability to sing. It is known that Shinichi has a high pitch in singing^[40], but his voice stays horrible but also enjoyable for the ones around him.

Detective Abilities

Conan's Thinking.

As being a loyal fan to Sherlock Holmes, Shinichi is a very skilled detective. He has had this amazing ability since he was a baby^[3], when he gives his mother only hints to find his father that set up a riddle for them. Shinichi's detective skills are so superb that he obtained nicknames such as "Savior of the Japanese Police Department" (日本警察の救世主, Nihon Keisatsu no Kyūseishu) or "Detective of the East" (東の探偵, Azuma no Tantei). Shinichi can find clues that are spotted in area's that they cannot be easily found and has a keen eye of details, which he can observation strange situations or evenly can see the smallest detail that has been taken or dropped^[52]. Shinichi isn't a person who can solve cases directly but has mostly a presumption of who did it, or who not which he later rethinks that the person he misjudged is the culprit.

Conan's way of thinking.

His intelligence can also know through some things on the victim or on the culprits body, which occupation they are from, but also known Japanese to American history, knowing the criminal records, knowing how to set a trap for the culprit, he is very wise with words knowing that he can convince an adult to listen to him when he is in the form of Conan Edogawa. If Shinichi is able to confirm his suspicions by words that are coming from one of the suspects, he can evenly solve a case if he can merge it with the clues he found or he knows. When he cannot solve a case clearly, he kicks with his soccer ball and plays with it to clear his mind and solve the case better^[38]. His deduction style is not better than that of his father, but knows how he can solve them with the smallest clues. In the form of Conan, when he knows what the plot of the case is and who the culprit is, he mostly uses Kogorō to solve the case.

Soccer Abilities

Shinichi's Soccer Skills.

Shinichi is known as a professional soccer player at his high school and according to Ran, he could be professional soccer player instead of a famous teen detective. Shinichi doesn't want to become a famous soccer player, but a detective like Sherlock Holmes^[29]. He comments that his is soccer just like Holmes playing the violin. Shinichi plays soccer each time when he must think hard needs to clear his mind to solve the case better^[38], another trait he adopted from Holmes and his violin. Shinichi doesn't only use the soccer for clarity but also when he tries to knock out an escaping culprit^[53]. Shinichi puts a lot of his strength in a ball when he kicks it which makes it enough to temporary knocking out the culprit^[53]. Due to his soccer skills, Shinichi became a very popular player at his school. Shinichi is even their captain and planning out tactics with his team against their opponent. As Conan, she still got the same abilities of playing soccer, and even became one of the best players of his school. Many of class students were interested in the way Conan plays soccer^[54].
But also as Conan, he cannot capture criminals as he would as a high schooler. He would try to kick a soccer ball against a kidnapper, but his child body could not give the power needed^[55]. This troubled Shinichi so he asked Professor Agasa if he could create him something that could help capture the criminals, which he later did and created a special gadget for him called the Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes^[56]. Conan demonstrated the powers of the shoes when he attended again the Teitan Elementary School when they got P.E. which they played soccer. Conan got the ball and put it on medium, one kicked a powerful source comes from out the shoes which broke the goal and a tree behind the goal^[57].

Gadgets

Conan uses his Voice Changing Bow-tie.

As Conan he obtains various gadgets created by Professor Agasa to help him to solve a dangerous or normal case. Conan is mostly seen using only two of the gadgets Agasa made the most, the Voice-Changing Bowtie — a bow tie that can manipulate the voice of Conan and can copy another when he speaks through it, and the Stun-Gun Wristwatch — a watch that can put someone in sleep. Conan is not very aware of the gadgets Agasa makes, which he said once when he uses the Power Kick Shoes that there is such kind of thing that is called "moderation"^[58]. The gadgets are also meant for Conan to make things easier as the same when he was a high school student. When Conan has to solve a case, he uses the two primary gadgets the Voice-Changing Bowtie and the Stun-Gun Wristwatch to another person he needs — which is mostly Kogorō. When Conan has to chase a escaping criminal directly, he uses his Turbo Engine Skateboard which uses solar power as an energy source^[59].

Usage of the Criminal Tracking Glasses.

As the series continues, Conan obtained more gadgets created by Professor Agasa, as such as the Criminal Tracking Glasses, Portable Bentou Box Fax, Elasticity Suspenders, Anywhere Ball Dispensing Belt and many other kinds of different gadgets. Somehow, Conan uses some gadgets only once and doesn't evenly seen not to use when the series proceeded.
As member of the group the Detective Boys, they uses their main primary gadget named the Detective Boys Badge which can contact with other members of the group who has the same badge^[60]. When Conan, Genta, and Mitsuhiko where making their search for Ayumi, they contacted her to tell her that she must stay calm. Known is that the Detective Boys Badge and the Criminal Tracking Glasses are contacted with each other due that the Detective Boys Badge has a transmitter inside^[61].
