Not all magic need be thunderbolts and lightning. But in a way it would make sense for Stiles to have some supernatural ability just based on the fact that he survives some of the things he gets into! Allison at least had the excuse of extensive early training in things like gymnastics and archery, moving on to hand-to-hand combat.

Stiles is more of a thinker, but when he needs to take action he often pulls off amazing things that stretch the boundaries of simple luck. Which might have been what made him such an ideal vessel for the Nogitsune - human, but attuned to the supernatural.

Also, the Oni were sent to investigate the supernatural population of Beacon Hills for some reason. I don't think Parrish was tested and marked. But wouldn't be odd to a simple human to be possessed. I know Nogitsune are tricksters but when you think about, saying that Stiles have a higher connection to the supernatural than were-friends would fit smoothly.

Noshiko sent them to find the Nogitsune. I figure it was searching the supernatural because whether you were human or not it would sense the supernatural entity in you.

But I agree. It seems odd that if Stiles and Allison were simple humans, what made it choose Stiles? Seems to me Allison would've been a better choice for causing grief and turmoil. She had actual knowledge of how to be dangerous, she had already turned on her friends once, they could've worked the love triangle angle up, her dad surely wouldn't want to kill her whether he still thought it was her in there or not.
