I would like to put this in the villain thread but I can’t do it so can someone move it to the villains thread. One question I like to ask of his energy draining. Can he drain the solar energy the planet absorbed? We see him drain energy of fire so he can possibly drain the earth energy by taking it from the magma. I ask this so to make planet be under a cataclysm. Should the planet seem like it under an ice age due to giga-watt? If not how should the devastation cause by gigawatt look like?

I think a lot of chaos would ensue. It seems to me that Gigawatt can only absorb electrical energy, note how he doesn't grow in the sunlight. I think the devastation he would cause would look something like a ghost town, at least at night. People made vulnerable by the lack of street lamps at night would have to crawl around, hidden. During the day, it would just be chaos. You can imagine, with police not being able to call in for backup, food stores having to write down transactions by hand (thereby piling up lines of people), all cities not in direct geographical contact don't have contact at all, etc.
Also, what are Gigawatt's origins? He can be defined as an electrical vampire, but a bed bug can be defined as a blood vampire, so that's no good. The only solid matter in his body is his lightbulb-head, so is he a spirit that simply inhabits a large lightbulb?

I personally thought it was Gigowatt (with an "o" not an "a").
Also I think of Gigowatt to be more like an entity similar to Arael or Armisael from Evangelion. As in like a biomechanical alien entity who's main body is like an organism with a machine enhanced outer body, and then it creates an easily changeable energy field for the rest of it. Maybe he can also be considered similar to a slime monster, except replace the slime with some sort of energy field. Though not visible due to the machinery, I think that inside his solid lightbulb-like head is some sort of organic body, perhaps just something like a brain or a cell cluster being of some sort.
Also I'm not sure about Solar energy, but apparently he can absorb light energy as seen when Jenny attempted using her power beam on him, and it only made him stronger. I think magma energy would be too much though, since magma is more like molten rock than fire. Then there's the energy that other organisms have in their body, like for the energy used for neuron signals in the body, and the energy needed for muscle cells to work. Perhaps Gigowatt's devastation would be more than that, for he would probably kill humans too in order to absorb that energy from their bodies too (also very vampiric). I bet someone killed by him would be like they just collapsed and all bodily functions just stopped from no energy, but they would not have external scars or visible wounds or anything.
Another good point I wanna add. Remember the one attempt Jenny used to combat him by using a rubber outer coating, but it failed due to Gigowatt using a magnetic field? Do you suppose she could've also suceeded by using a rubber outer coating, but also equipped with a magnet of the same polarity? Unless he's able to alter the polarity of his magnetism attack, that would just make the magnetic field repel her instead of stick her to the pole, rendering his means of offense ineffective, (both the electric beam and the magnetism field).
Or another strategy. Maybe when Jenny was in the Stealth Fighter-like ship form, she could've used a more defensive strategy instead of offensive. Like she could've kept her distance from him and focused more on dodging than attacking, instead of rushing in with weapons blazing. Obviously since he feeds off energy sources, using his electric beam, magnetism attack, or other such attacks would deplete his energy resources. By getting him to use his attacks too much without them hitting, and making sure to keep her distance so he'd have no other way to fight back, it would force him to keep blasting, but it would also lower his energy supply after a while. Then when it would be low enough, he'd be weakened and she could finish him off easily.

He is energy vampire and his body made of pure energy not organic. His head is most likely mechanical. I think he is likely built by someone. he likely does not drain organics but they would likely live in darkness due to him for several years trying to survive. If he drains to solar energy he likely make the anyone organic die by hunger or to be frozen to death.
as for magnetic polarity it easier to use fire to stop the magnetism. the problem still he would absorbed the fire and the gadget that can change electric frequencies.

I may be mistaken, Gigawatt could be organic, technoganic or other things since they did not put much detail of him, so you could be right Kyubey. The actual outlook at what he does is a lot darker than you had made.

This is going to be complicated question. If Gigawattt absorbs the solar energy of the planet how long would it take to be dark. I was told it would not happen as it would still be absorbing solar energy so it would be similar to a battery with low energy getting powered up. I think there will be cold days that can be detected. I wanted to do a role play with it but I haven’t figured the science of it yet. A lot of electronic devices would not be working. This also leads to other things that I will go detail after I figure this one out.
