Yes it's wrong, but I thought it was interesting to think about. Having benders that can do 2 or 3 elements seem to make the Avatar a bit pointless.

If there were demi-Avatars, it would make the Avatar look like a wimp, and the position would be a lot less powerful and important. Multi-Benders other then the Avatar are definitely a bad idea.

not to mention horrible writing. It would also make viewers question everything they know. now, if you will excuse me, I will be going back to editing location articles on the wiki such as wulong forest to have them note that such locations are now in the URN. I've noticed numerous articles that still state that the location is in the earth kingdom. after all, we now have a map of the URN (courtesy of Mako), might as well use it.

Do you guys think an Avatar could have ever been born in the foggy swamp tribe?

I guess. It's never really made clear what the Foggy Swamp's Tribe political situation is, and since I doubt Earth Kingdom authorities are interested in the area, I think the Foggy Swamp people could be like a third Water Tribe. In other words, it's entirely possible a Water Avatar could be born in the Foggy Swamp tribe.

Anyway, I feel somewhat disappointed by Toph. I thought she always stood for justice, until she tried to cover up her daughter's crime and destroyed the police report. I know that she didn't want to have a daughter in jail, that, she felt guilty about it afterwards and resigned as Chief of Police, but still...
Kya can't be an airbender, she's a waterbender.

Honestly, most people would probably do the same thing that Toph did, when put in that situation.

It might just be me but I'd either exile her for a while or just straight up imprision Suyin.

Also I'm saying Varrick is developing a way of metal bending without actually being a bender by using that magnet suit of his. Meanwhile I feel the reason why the Gaang were such bad parents is due to their reactions to their own parenting and due to the fact they seemingly lacked parental figures for most of their lives. Also I'm saying Suyin is a descendant of Sokka, she has the right skin tone and her son has a the same artistic skills. Lin on the other hand looks rather like the upper class earth benders or a fire diner as they're the only light skinned people in A:lta. So maybe Zuko or that teen from the rift.
