[teesaw]

Too easy?  Steve is the winner

[breadmaster]

perhaps, but too easy is always better than too hard!

heres one
apocalypse
bishop
colossus
nightcrawler

just for fun fact they're 79 4 grid points

[teesaw]

Apart from the fact that they all have names which are things that have nothing to do with their powers?  i.e.

Apocalypse:
- Name for end of the world
- powers include molecular manipulation, strength, etc. - he in fact doesnt have a destructive power that i can think of...
- more fitting name would be "Omnipotent Man"
Colossus:
- Word for a large structure, tower, or statue
- powers include ability to make skin into metal, and enhanced strength
- more fitting name would be "Metal Man"
Nightcrawler
- Name of a type of earthworm used to catch fish
- powers include teleportation and agility
- more fitting name would be "Teleportation Man"
Bishop
- Name for a religeous leader in certain christian faiths (bishop happens to be the character's last name...)
- powers include energy absorption and projection
- more fitting name would be "energy absorption man"

You may be thinking, couldn't we say that about a lot of heroes?  Sure, I suppose you could, but I can't think of another (mainstrem) X-Man who fits the criteria off the top of my head.
- Beast, Iceman, Storm, Angel, Wolverine, Cyclops, Banshee, Shadowcat to name a few.

Probably wrong, but hope you enjoyed
