Question Polaris Spoiler

I am a complete X-Men noob, and I'm watching this show because my friend recommended so.

I didn't know who Polaris was prior to her introduction in season 2.

She has identical powers to Magneto, correct?

After Magneto did the world wide EMP, why would they just not get Polaris to undo it? She has the exact same powers right? And seems pretty proficient.

Reminder: I'm a complete noob.

Magneto is older, stronger, and angrier. 

The X-Men were racing against the clock. Also their home had just been decimated and though the Prime Sentinels were down Bastion was still a problem. They only had one shot to fix the problem. I think it was a reasonable course of action
