Even before they knew that the father was also part-Hexenbiest, people (I think Rosalee?) made mention of the baby having powers because it was 'the child of a Hexenbiest'.

I think now we have to assume that she did, mostly because she passed those powers on to her child, even though she was not in possession of them when she got pregnant. вЂGrimmвЂ™ is a police procedural drama, created for NBC by Stephen Carpenter, Jim Kouf, and David Greenwalt.The occult detective fiction and fantasy series originally premiered on the network on October 28, 2011. In-universe, though, I think the only logical explanation is that a Grimm's ability to depower a Hexenbiest is somehow special to that species of Wesen, and not a general catch-all ability.ДЄ related aspect of this, which I also wondered way back when we first saw Nick take Adalind's power, is whether Adalind still qualified as a Wesen. I also realize that, out-of-universe this may have been a case of the writers deciding after the fact that they screwed up, and made things too easy on Nick, so they simply decided to drop the issue and hope no one notices. If Nick's blood could nullify the power of any Wesen that ingested it, I would expect by now for Nick (and every other Grimm in history) to have loaded his crossbow up with Nick's-blood arrows in case of emergency.Д®ven moreso, I feel like we've seen at least a few instances where Nick got into fights with Wesen that resulted in him bleeding all over them if his blood was able to destroy their Wesen side I would expect them to be terrified of that possibility, but we see nothing like that reaction from any of them. As the Germanic equivalents of their names insist, these Wesen possess the powers of a witch (female) or sorceror (male). This includes Wesen that Monroe claimed were almost impossible to defeat. It doesnвЂ™t get more ugly or more evil than a Hexenbiest The Hexenbiest is the female form of this species of Wesen, while the Zauerbiest refers to the male. I also tend to think this must be true because, in all the time since then, we've never once seen anyone even suggest using Nick's blood to neutralize a Wesen.

Grimm blood is able to nullify this extra gift that Hexenbiest have because it's somehow different from what the other Wesen have. In particular, note that Adalind's magic seems to be just as potent when she is in or out of woge, while other Wesen's abilities are dramatically enhanced when they woge. A Hexenbiest, however, has power to perform magic that seems to be because of, but not necessarily an innate part of, their Hexenbiest side. For example, you couldn't really take a Blutbad and take away their innate strength - they wouldn't be a Blutbad anymore. When Monroe or Rosalee woge, they gain access to talents from their Wesen side because those things are a fundamental part of their 'creature' half. I think the issue here is that a Hexenbiest's powers are not 'natural' in the way that other Wesen are. As far as an official canon answer, there has never been one, but based on the information we have, I think that's the most reasonable explanation.

I was just thinking about this watching Friday's episode, and after some deliberation I think the answer we're 'supposed to' arrive at is that this special power only works on Hexenbiest.
