Guidelines:
You must have the SP on hand when posting a tech. It's the same as an auction in this regard.
No attacks may increase stats.
No advanced can be considerably better than Kamehameha. If it is, it's too good and you better change it.

The above is a quote directly from the Custom Request board, and as most have hopefully noted, it states "No attacks may increase stats". Yet contrary to this, most people believe you cannot make custom Power Up's.

My question is, why can we not create Power Up's that do not increase stats. For example, a Power Up which increases damage percentages, or another which could bring your Ki and PL to full power in a unique way without increasing them.

Is it truly invalid to create power ups?

I fail to see the logic here. You cannot make Power Ups.
Though, I have seen some "non-damaging" custom fundamentals which act as the power ups you described.

I have yet to see one of those which you described be approved though, they were dismissed because of being Power Up's.

I don't pay much attention then. I guess Power Ups just aren't allowed, be it because of the "no stat increase" rule or not.

In the end it's the same question as why can't we create custom stances or custom special techniques.

The part where Pan asks if custom Power Ups are allowed, and Alex says "NOPE".

You can still make non-damaging fundamental and advanced tehniques. Be creative. If that's not enough, then I'm not sure what to tell you. Sometimes you just have to accept that the game isn't always going to be the way you want it to be.

I should put it in there, now.

EDIT: It is now there for the world to see.

Power Ups are a no-no. You can make a non-damaging tech for 15 SP. An example of one is Kiai or Deflect.
