For me, it'd probably be teleportation. The possibilities with teleportation are basically limitless.

Building's on fire? Teleport in, grab the people inside, and teleport out. Easy.
Getting your butt kicked by a supervillain? Teleport to a gun shop, grab some weapons, and teleport back for round 2.
- Alternatively, just grab your opponent, teleport in front of a moving train or something, let go of your opponent, and teleport away.
Need to defuse a bomb? No need! Just teleport the bomb to the middle of the desert. Never worry about cutting the wrong wire again!
Want to go to a Taylor Swift concert, but you overslept? You guessed it: just teleport! You don't even need to buy a ticket!

Admittedly, stopping time is another very useful power, but teleportation is just really hard to beat. What say you?

Teleportation is up there, but I think shapeshifting beats it out for me by a little.

Not even considering how to use it to help other people, selfishly. I just want my clothes to always fit perfectly, among other things.

Shapeshifting's a good one. Lot of possibilities with that.

Heck, bundle in the ability to shapeshift other people for them and I'll run around zapping dysphoria inducing bodies.
