Tim did not become Robin because he was chosen for it, but because he chose it. Seeing the effect of the absence of a Robin on Batman, he used inductive reasoning and recognition of Nightwing's acrobatic skills as unique to the Flying Graysons in order to determine Batman's secret identity. Becoming the third Robin during the Year of the Monkey, he was only two years into acting as a Robin when tested by the events of the Cataclysm.
Eventually joining the Sailor Sentoin, Superboys, Impulse, and Wonder Girl in the raid on the Dark Kingdom at D Point, his intelligence proved a critical component in helping to liberate the Evelanders and Yōma. As a result of these adventures, he and his new friends formed the team that would come to be known as Young Justice, briefly operating independent of Batman after a full two years of being public as the Boy Wonder.
Young, Just Us
Tim's experiences with the Young Justice team allowed him to grow as a leader, his keen analytical mind and personal drive creating someone who could work well with his teammates' flaws and virtues. He developed close bonds with the 'core' members of the team: Conner, Bart, Minako, and Cassie.
Spoiled
During Tim's time with Young Justice, a new Robin stepped in: Stephanie Brown, formerly 'Spoiler'. The two enjoyed a romance that flared and eventually faded, as differences in who they were as both heroes and everyday people settled in. They remain close, however, and Stephanie has come to regard Tim as the next best option for strategy when Oracle and Batman are unavailable to coordinate.
A Family Found
After a brief stint with the Titans alongside Beast Boy and Raven, Tim returned to Gotham as a dedicated part of the city's defenders. By the time of the second Year of the Ox, he had reconnected with his old friend Bernard, and the two began dating. Now more mature and trained, Tim has come to have an understanding of how to balance his 'work life', romance, and time with his growing family. On learning of Ranma's existence and the nature of Zhòuquánxiāng curses, he has begun pursuing avenues of investigation to learn more about the topic and see if there is a connection to the Lazarus Pits.
- Aviation: Capable of piloting and repairing small aircraft.
- Disguise: Tim has been thoroughly trained by Alfred in acting and makeup, and has shown an ability to pass scrutiny under detailed observation.
- Dissociative Disorder: An attempt by the Joker to mind-control Tim into being a sinister sidekick—a 'Joker Junior'—backfired due to the clownish villain's poor understanding of the human psyche, resulting in the existence of a headmate by the name of Jay. See Jay Wayne / Blue Jay for further details.
- Genius Intellect: Tim is noted among the Batfam for his exceptionally keen intelligence and autodidactic learning style, providing him with a number of skills and intellectual abilities not limited to:
- Engineering: In addition to gadgets and tools developed by Batman and his allies, Tim has invented a large number of original mechanical and electronic tools which he uses in both crimefighting and everyday life, including Lilit's staff.
- Hacking: Tim's skill with computer systems is high enough to assist Oracle on a regular basis.
- Investigation: Bruce and Ra's al Ghul alike have described Tim as having the potential to surpass Batman as the world's greatest detective, and his investigative and analytical abilities already surpass the other members of the family.
- Linguistics: Tim speaks passable Cantonese, French, German, Russian, and Spanish, in addition to his native English; he is fluent in American Sign Language.
- Language of Combat: Tim has learned to communicate his intent and messages to allies through wordless body movements and gestures during a fight.
- Martial Arts: in addition to training with Batman, Oracle, and Nightwing, Tim has studied under Henri Ducard, Lady Shiva, Wildcat, and others. He is proficient in aikido, bōjutsu, boxing, judo, karate, kung fu, and t'ai chi.
- Peak Human Condition: under Batman's training, Tim has developd an exercise regimen that maintains his athletic abilities at an Olympian level.
- Red Robin Suit: developed independently, the current version of Tim's crimefighting gear is specialized to his skillset.
- Utility Belt: contains a variety of investigative and crimefighting tools, including trackers, 'bangarang' explosive projectiles, and extensible bō staff.
