Psion do not get standar encounter power and almost all Spellscare powers are encounter one.

So it is possible to build a Psion + Spellscared toon? if yes: how are his powers advancement?

I havnt seen anything official on it, but I would assume that they could give up one of their "encounter" At-wills for an Encounter power of the same level or lower in the Spellscared powers.

Jun 07, 2010 3:08:29 PHB3 gives the new power swap feats for an augmentable character power swapping with a non-augmentable one.

In your case you need the feat Psionic Conventionalist. You swap one of your at-wills for an encounter power of the same level or lower and lose power points based on the at-wills level.

Level 1-10 = 2 PP loss
Level 11-20 = 4 PP loss
Level 21-30 = 6 PP loss .

Information from PHB3 page 194

Just like in the Marvel Comics universe, some mutant powers are odd, change physiology in some small way, but don't necessarily lend themselves to combat.

If it's flavor you're going for, just do a houserule and have it be a "non-power" or something cosmetic. Unless you really do need for it to be a special power - and do a swap-out as suggested above.

I suggest there!
