Spiritual Powers

 * Immense Spiritual Power: Midoriko is probably the most powerful priestess shown in the entire series. She was said to be greater than any priest/priestess and generals in her time. As the representation of the purity in the Shikon no Tama, Midoriko possessed extremely high levels of spiritual power, strength and energy. Even a priestess like Kikyō had specifically sought to obtain Midoriko's spirit in order to completely destroy Naraku due to the strong powers she has over the Shikon Jewel.
 * Immense Purification: Her purification abilities are said to be capable of purifying hundreds to thousands of demons all at once. This is shown when her powers were able to completely purify Naraku's miasma when Kikyō fused Midoriko's spirit unto her body to heal the miasma inflicted wounds that Naraku inflicted upon her body, even though Kagome's purification could only temporarily heal Kikyo's injuries.
 * Shikon: Midoriko's most fearsome and powerful ability was to excorsice Shikon. One's spirit is made up ofour souls in Naohi: Aramitama (,Courage), Nigimitama (Friendship), Kushimitama (Wisdom) and Sakimitama (Love). She contained these four spirits at their maximum and balanced, giving her the ability to drive out the soul of anything and purify it. Midoriko mainly used it on demons which left them powerless. It was this ability that she used to defeat the Demon of the Shikon Jewel and create the Shikon Jewel.
 * Shikon Jewel Influence: As the good and purity of the Shikon Jewel, Midoriko has some influence and control over the jewel and its shards that can be exerted into the living world even if she has long died. Her influence over the jewel was so great that the collective power of the wolf tribe ancestors was only able to temporarily override her control of Kōga's jewel shards.
 * Barrier: Midoriko has the ability to create very powerful barriers, even though she was within the Shikon No Tama. She could maintain the barrier on the entrance of the Cave where the Shikon no Tama was created..
 * Master Swordswoman: Due to the endless battles and wars she had experienced, Midoriko was a skilled swordswoman, able to ward off a multitude of demons with a single blow. Her swordsmanship led her to have the strength equal to one hundred samurai according to lore.
 * Immense Endurance: Midoriko had extremely high stamina, fighting many demons, who had all merged into one single demon, for seven days and seven nights without any rest. It was even shown that she had managed to defeat him after losing her left arm and being impaled by his tentacles with little reaction.

Weapons

 * Sword: Midoriko carries and uses a large two-edged sword as her main weapon. It doesn't seem to have any special abilities outside of being an excellent medium for her spiritual powers.
 * Purification Slash: Midoriko can imbue her spiritual powers into the sword, purifying hundreds upon hundreds of demons in one sweep.
 * Samurai Armor: Midoriko is shown to wearing samurai armor over her priestess attire when she fought, though she only seems to wear the chest plate, shoulder plates, and skirt portion of the chest plate.
