When it comes to Deadpool, we’re used to seeing him bounce back from the craziest injuries, often with a snarky comment and a smirk.
But in Deadpool & Wolverine, we meet Nicepool, a variant who doesn’t seem to have the same resilience.
So, why couldn’t Nicepool regenerate like the Deadpool we know and love? The answer will surprise you.

Who Is Nicepool? Does He Have the Same Abilities As Deadpool?
Nicepool might look like your average Joe compared to the scarred and sarcastic Deadpool we’re familiar with.
His face is intact, he’s got a clean-cut appearance, and he even wears a bulletproof vest.
At first glance, you might think Nicepool is just a regular guy who never went through the same intense mutation process.
But here’s the twist: Nicepool did break the fourth wall in Deadpool & Wolverine, a surefire sign that he has Deadpool’s powers.
So, if he’s got the same powers, why didn’t he heal when it mattered most?
The Dogpool Theory Explains All – Nicepool’s Secret Weapon
Here’s where things get interesting.
Nicepool had a little companion – a Deadpool variant called Dogpool.
And if you paid close attention, you might have noticed something unusual: when Wolverine had Dogpool with him, none of the other Deadpool variants took a shot at him.
This leads us to a theory that might just explain Nicepool’s apparent lack of regeneration.
What if Nicepool had been using Dogpool as a sort of “good luck charm” or even a shield his entire life?
If no one ever took a shot at Nicepool because of Dogpool, then Nicepool might have never known he could regenerate.
He lived a life without the constant barrage of bullets and injuries that our usual Deadpool faces daily.
So, when he finally did get injured, he didn’t realize he had the power to heal, or at least, not right away.
Now, here’s a fun thought: what if after everyone left the scene, Nicepool did regenerate?
Imagine him waking up, surprised and confused, realizing he had the healing factor all along.
This would’ve made for an epic post-credits scene, showing that Nicepool wasn’t so “nice” and normal after all. He had the power that he just didn’t know.
Last Word
So, why couldn’t Nicepool regenerate in Deadpool & Wolverine? The answer might lie in his unusual relationship with Dogpool and a lifetime of never needing to heal.
But don’t be fooled; Nicepool had the same powers as Deadpool.
He just didn’t know it until it was too late, or maybe he did, and we just didn’t get to see it.
Either way, Nicepool’s story adds an intriguing layer and some funny elements to the ever-expanding Deadpool universe.
Wouldn’t it have been awesome to see Nicepool come back to life in a surprise twist?
Maybe someday we’ll get that moment. Until then, we’ll just have to keep theorizing and enjoying the wild ride that is Deadpool!
