No, here is how to change that, the parents of the Ninja are not elemental masters or are related to an elemental master, this does not count for Lloyd, Wu or Garmadon, because they are related to the First Spinjitzu master, but i will get to them later.

the Ninja's elemental powers and the powers of all the other elemental masters are instead so that once an elemental master dies, their power goes to the heavens and stay there until a boy or a girl is born that is worthy of that power, thus in each family, there might have been one elemental master in their family line, however that power does not pass biologicaly to the children of that master. This would make the character special instead of being born in a special family line.

Now over to Lloyd, in his chase he was born to be the next one to fight the Overlord, because as we know, Overlord would in the end wake up one day, and at the fatefull day that Garmadon came to the Dark island, thats the reason Lloyd was chosen to gain the powers of the First Spinjitzu master, so in the family line of the First Spinjitzu master, there is the chanse that a new Ultimate Spinjitzu master will never be born until thousands of years later, they are destind to protect Ninjago and the other realms if possible from the greatest threath that exist, one of them is of course Overlord. Thank you for not getting rid of the powers all together, and instead just changing their concept a little.

Yes, I agree that elemental power should pass on to someone of the next generation, not necessarily in the family. But I don't think it should "go to the heavens". I think that the elemental power should just not exist briefly, while the writers in Cloud Kingdom choose someone to take on the power.

About Lloyd, I don't think that the Energy/Golden Power/profecized Ultimate Spinjitzu Master should have anything to do with family. It should be just as destined as the other elements. Otherwise, wouldn't it be obvious that Lloyd would be the Green Ninja, since it's his family?
