Couple this with Acerola herself having no combat ability herself, and she finds herself relying on Mimikins more often than not.

This only gets worse when she gets on The Train, where everybody is either outright immune to her powers (Denizens) or ones she can't use on at the possibility of alienating potential allies (Passengers).

''Inside'' the Train, however, her Ghost Aura is essentially worthless because not only are most of the entities within it Denizens, who are TheSoulless and thus immune to her powers, but the few people who could be affected, the Passengers, can't be used because it would only result in Acerola gaining herself and her team several enemies.
