Why do you always have to show up while you're on your period, Ark? There are better ways to point that out.

Now, on one hand, you are correct that we have never seen 2 different species of Grimm have the exact same powers (though the Manticores don't have the "loud scream" the Sphinx had). However, look at the bigger picture. Your point stacks with the one Chish made some comments below.

We have also never seen a Grimm that loses boneplate as they grow older (it either stays the same or they grow more). Nor that their nose shrinks, or the tail turns into something completely different, or they lose toes, or they get more slender, or their skulls change shape completely.

Overall, you're right, they both spit fireballs, and we have never seen 2 different Grimm with the same powers. But there's also the fact that the Sphinx's body-wise is very different from the Manticore, and we have never seen any Grimm that changes so damn much as they grow older. Closest to that is the Creep, and even then young and old Creeps don't look that different.
