Powers & Abilities What character in One Piece is completely underusing their abilities? I think it’s Kidd.

Katakuri using it as an acceletator for his attacks
Katakuri using it as a projectile
Katakuri using it as a weapon
Using it to increase his speed
The versatility he has with it makes Kid's look like a joke.

i might rank him on doffy's level or even better
but also Katakuri is/was probably the most versatile with his DF outside of Luffy and how easy he was to adapt and replicate Luffys own attacks "kats big mochi fist" was simply showing superiority to Luffy in DF attributes.
kata used mochi on a level that was unheard of, speed, strength, weaponized and using alongside weapons as well.
whatever Luffy couldve done at the time katakuri was able to replicate with ease plus his own arsenal which we saw was already a lot to begin with.
plus you add in his proficiency with FS and that further enhances the utilization and speed of his ability to react and dodge attacks.

Though Oda could have given the same versatility to other characters with their devil fruits. Kidd is one example of this, amongst many others, given the many powers and potential applications of magnetism but Oda clearly underdelivered with it. It's far from the level of power and versatility Magneto has gone through with his magnetic powers.
in all fairness kid as a character also lacked the imagination to use his fruit differently. Devil fruits just seem limited by the users imaginations, and kid could only think about making bigger mechs and robots. He didn’t have what law and Luffy did to really make his fruit power beyond simply attracting and shaping scrap and assigning magnetic fields.
That’s simple minded bash your head against a whale enough and the wall will break thinking. Kids entire character was that hr would look before leaping shoot first ask questions later. And his df use matched that. There wasn’t any strategy just get bigger and stronger. It’s not like Law who’s understanding of the human body, and medical process allowed him to create unique and insane abilities with his fruit. Even allowing it to mimic another fruit in Corazons.
The use of Fujitora's gravity df, the Zushi Zushi no mi has been disappointing as well with Fujitora clearly being far from using the power of gravity to its full potential and versatility, with his use being often limited to increase of gravity or use of meteors and projectiles in rather straightforward trajectories.
And that's not counting the comical ease with which his meteors are countered or avoided by his foes.
