The Omnitrix aliens
Original 10
Heatblast
Heatblast
- An Ice Person: Temporarily, when Ben catches a cold and it spreads to his alien forms.
- Convection, Schmonvection: This alien is from, and is in essence, a walking talking sun. Nobody is harmed or complains about the heat from being in close proximity to him.
- Elemental Absorption: He can absorb fire.
- Elemental Powers: Pyrokinesis.
- Flight: Via propulsion, like the canonical version.
- Jack of All Stats: He can hit, possesses acceptable durability, flies with limited capabilities, and can blast fire.
- Living Lava: He is literally this.
- Playing with Fire: Naturally.
- Weaksauce Weakness: Subverted. Just pouring or spraying water on him isn't gonna kill him.
Echo Echo
Echo Echo
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Appears several years before his canon self did.
- Doppelgänger Attack: His secondary form of attack.
- Evolution Power-Up: Psyphon blowing him up managed to free up his true form.
- Make Me Wanna Shout: Is able to make more concentrated bursts of sound thanks to being able to duplicate.
- Me's a Crowd: Is able to duplicate, making him very useful.
- Powered Armor: He (and other Sonorosians) are made of living sound waves so they wear containment suits.
- Robo Speak: Sounds like a speech synthesizer.
- Super Mode: Echo Echo has a form beyond his containment suit
◊- a form of pure sound that can launch out sonic punches and increased sound waves. However, this form will not last long.
Diamondhead
Diamondhead
- Blade Below the Shoulder: Not naturally, but he can shape his hands into ones.
- Gemstone Assault: Can shoot out a barrage of crystals from his body, almost going into Earthbender territory with his crystals as well.
- Glass Cannon: Literally, though in a technical point of view, it's averted; Diamondhead actually is one of Ben's most durable aliens, as his crystal skin is extremely durable and he can regenerate his limbs.
- Healing Factor: His ability to shape himself gives him a very limited self-healing ability.
- Power Crystal: A living one at that.
- Shapeshifter Weapon: He has entire control over his physiology, allowing him to shapeshift his arms into blades, project crystal shards, and many other uses.
- Super-Strength: Is VERY strong.
XLR8
XLR8
- Cool Helmet: It has a retractable visor that protects his eyes while he's moving at high speeds.
- Fragile Speedster: He is physically frail and will usually fall after the first punch. Still, he runs so fast you can barely see him most of the time, so punching him even once is in itself an accomplishment.
- Super-Speed: Is Ben's fastest alien.
Spidermonkey
Spidermonkey
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Appears several years before his canon self did.
- Multi-Armed and Dangerous: Spidermonkey has four arms.
- Shout-Out: To Spider-Man.

Eatle
Eatle
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Appears several years before his canon self did.
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: Looks like a giant rhinoceros beetle.
- Horn Attack: His horn can shoot energy beams after eating something.
- Mighty Glacier: He is significantly taller, bigger, and stronger than most of Ben's aliens.

Astrodactyl
Astrodactyl
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Appears several years before his canon self did.
- Breath Weapon: He can fire energy beams out of his beak.
- Flight: Duh.

- Energy Weapon: His signature attack.
- Star Power: He has some kind of internalized star power, that he can use as propulsion and different forms of weapons.
- Super-Speed: He's incredibly fast, due to his wings and star energy.
- Terror-dactyl: He looks like a vaguely humanoid pterosaur.
Upgrade
Upgrade
- Blob Monster: Of the "liquid metal" variety.
- Composite Character: His design is taken from the Reboot while his color scheme is from the classic series.
- Confusion Fu/Mighty Glacier: He's the latter when he's just Upgrade and the former when... everything else.
- Expressive Mask: Well, "eye". It's the only way to tell if Ben's angry or glaring.
- Eye Beam: Though it took Ben time to figure out, Upgrade can, even when not fusing with machines, shoot a plasma beam from his single eye.
- Fusion Dance: With machines, technically.
- Rubber Man: Can stretch his limbs and body at will, being a liquid metal.
- Shapeshifting: He can reshape his body, stretching out to act as a parachute while falling, or projecting spikes to attack opponents.
- The Smart Guy: The main appeal of Upgrade seems to be brains over brawns, as he can merge with technology and use it to fight for him.
- Technopath: He can take over any machine by fusing with it, upgrading it (hence his name) to incredible levels in the process. But it has limits; if the machine is sentient, it can struggle with the possession and get free.
- Tron Lines: Galvanic Mechamorphs as a species have these, and they do well to add extra awesomeness to whatever tech they fuse with.
Ghostfreak
Ghostfreak
- And I Must Scream: Unlike other species sampled for the Omnitrix, even the smallest sample of DNA contains an Ectonurite's consciousness. A copy of Zs'Skayr's consciousness was subsequently trapped inside the Omnitrix and fully aware the entire time. His fight with Zombozo showed signs of Zs'Skayr taking over.
- Badass Boast: To Zombozo in "Last Laugh".
- Combat Tentacles: His tendrils are strong enough to hold Vilgax.
- Confusion Fu: It's hard to figure out where he going to come at you from if he makes effective use of his invisibility.
- Creepy Good/Dark Is Not Evil: Ben can get very creepy when he turns into Ghostfreak, but he remains a good guy... as long as Zs'Skayr doesn't take over.
- Eyes Do Not Belong There: Can move his eye around his body while in his second skin. Without it, his eye is stuck in place because his head is a skull.
- Horrifying the Horror: Ben managed to scare the crap out of Zombozo just by using this form.
- Intangible Man: He wouldn't be called Ghostfreak if he didn't have these powers. Though there are chemicals that can neutralize this ability.
- Our Ghosts Are Different: They are a species of aliens from a mysterious sector called Anur Phaetos, are connected through a Hive Mind that can manifest through even the slightest sample of their DNA, and are Weakened by the Light. They can, however, wear a second skin to protect them from it, at the cost of weakening most of their powers. Said skin gives them their ghost-like appearance, but behind it, they look like creatures with black-and-white tentacles writhing everywhere, an upside-down cyclopean skull, and large claws.
- Weakened by the Light: Though Ghostfreak wears a second skin that protects him from such a weakness.
Water Hazard
Water Hazard
- Adaptation Species Change: From Orishan to Cascan.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: Appears several years before his canon self did.
- Decomposite Character: His name is Water Hazard, but he's a Cascan like Overflow in the Reboot.
- Jack of All Stats: Good defense, good offense, and good range.
- Making a Splash: Can shoot water, absorb it, and such.
- Nigh-Invulnerability: Not Ben's most resilient alien, but his exoskeleton still offers him quite an impressive durability.
- Shout-Out: his appearance here is similar to Golisopod.
- Starfish Alien: He is some kind of giant vaguely anthropomorphic crustacean.
- Super Not-Drowning Skills: Used literally in "Big Fat Alien Wedding".
- You Don't Look Like You: His appearance (based on the... drawing above) is drastically different from his design in both Ultimate Alien and Omniverse.
Later Aliens
Cannonbolt
Cannonbolt
- Grievous Harm with a Body: Namely, his own.
- Heart Is an Awesome Power: His sole power is to curl up into a ball and throw himself at the enemy in Rolling Attacks. Sounds pretty lame, right? Well, not so much when your body possesses a shell that can resist atmospheric re-entry.
- Hyper-Destructive Bouncing Ball: One of his main attacks is bouncing around wildly like a pinball.
- Rolling Attack: His main thing is rolling around.

Slapback
Slapback
- Asteroids Monster: His basic power set is that every time his back is struck he becomes two doubles who are half the size but twice the weight, strength, and durability.
- Big Ol' Eyebrows: Which appear to be made of metal.
- Made of Iron: He literally looks to be so and is quite durable. This only goes up the more he multiplies.
- Pint-Sized Powerhouse: At four copies he's basically a bunch of super-strong living cannonballs.
- Self-Duplication: Like Echo Echo but with the unique spin that the doubles get smaller but stronger, heavier, and more durable. This limits how many he can reasonably make but at the same reduce the risk of copies being harmed.
Blitzwolfer
Blitzwolfer
- Composite Character: With his prime counterpart and the AntiTrix alien from the Reboot.
- Instant Armor: He can cover his fur and teeth at will with metal that seems to come out from nowhere.

-
Unexpected Character: Many readers did not expect to see Alien X in Chapter 20.

- Elemental Powers: Both Chlorokinesis and Pyrokinesis, though the latter is limited to expelling it from his palms.

- Healing Factor: He can grow back limbs, his head, and even when he's been cut to pieces.

- Badass Boast: His "Let me tell you something" speeches are intended to be this.
- Blood Knight: He loves violence.
- Catchphrase: “Lemme tell ya somethin!...”
- Dumb Muscle: Ben gets dumber and more aggressive in this form, making it one of his least controllable forms. However, since he usually uses it for heavy combat, he doesn't really mind.
- Full-Name Basis: Addresses everyone by their full name and title most if not all of the time, most prominently during his "Lemme tell ya something..." speeches.
- Hair-Trigger Temper: He's practically this trope personified.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: It’s Ben. He’s still in there. Somewhere.
- Large Ham: It wouldn't be Rath without him shouting "LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING..." and charging ahead with dramatic wrestling moods.
- Masked Luchador: Rath wears a green luchador outfit.

Grey Matter
Grey Matter
- Incredible Shrinking Man: Ben goes from whatever size he normally is, to about 6 inches tall.

- Shorter Means Smarter: The smallest alien in Ben’s arsenal.
- Wall Crawl: The mucus his skin secretes allows him to adhere to surfaces to climb them.
Big Chill
Big Chill
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: He looks like a giant, vaguely humanoid, skeleton-like moth.
- Breath Weapon: Ice breathing, to be accurate.
- Flying Firepower: A flyer with powerful ice breath abilities.
- Ghostly Chill: The basis of his powers.
- Glass Cannon: His ice powers are extremely powerful and able to defeat much stronger opponents, but his physical structure is relatively weak compared to most of Ben's fight-oriented aliens, making him easy to defeat if you find a way to attack him before he goes intangible (good luck for that though).
- Harmless Freezing: There seems to be no ill effects from his ice breath.
- An Ice Person: Though he's primarily used for his ice breath, Big Chill has several methods of freezing opponents including shooting ice beams from his hands, through physical contact, and by going intangible.
- Intangible Man: And can freeze everything he phases through to boot.
- In the Hood: When folded, his wings form like a natural cape and hood, giving him a Grim Reaper-esque look.

- Genius Ditz: Ben's most intelligent alien...but it’s still Ben.
- My Brain Is Big: And visible with that.
- Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: Cerebrocrustaceans as a whole seem to instinctively express themselves that way, and Brainstorm is no exception. This actually sometimes becomes a weakness, as he can distract himself during fights.

- Shock and Awe: His brain can generate electric attacks and forcefields by mere thought.
- Super-Intelligence
Toepick
Toepick

- Heart Is an Awesome Power: Being indescribably hideous turns out to be a rather useful power.

Clockwork
Clockwork
- Mechanical Life Form: Seriously, just look at the picture.
- Never the Selves Shall Meet: Rook implies that something bad happens if you make physical contact with one of the images that he conjures of past events, especially if that image is of you. Servantis is put into a Stable Time Loop of his interrogation via being forced to make contact with his past image.
- Non-Action Guy: Not really used for combat due to his size.

- Energy Absorption: He can absorb energy and fire it back at his opponents.

- Super-Strength: His main power.
Goop
Goop
- Acid Attack: He can turn himself into living acid.

- Covered in Gunge: Not him, but others when he takes a hit.
- Nigh-Invulnerability: By way of being made of fluids.

- Making a Splash: He possesses hydrokinesis.
- Nigh-Invulnerability: His exoskeleton is extremely durable.
- Not Quite Flight: He can propel himself into the air by blasting the ground. For obvious reasons, this limits his flight ceiling.

Upchuck
Upchuck
- Big Eater: Except he can't digest what is normally considered "food", leading to some rather bizarre culinary choices on his part.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: While being able to eat a lot is useful, Upchuck isn't that impressive compared to the other alien races. Then cut to Omniverse where it's one of the few races confirmed to lack a predator.
- Extreme Omnivore: He can eat everything.
- Glass Cannon: A given since he's the size of a woodchuck.
- Meaningful Name: Given his powers of "exploding loogies".

- Possibly for Ceres and Rook too, but it hasn't been shown yet.
Atomix
Atomix was sampled from an Prypatosian. One of Ben's most powerful aliens.
- Expy: Of Goku, and anime characters in general.
- Also appears to be an expy of Deoxys- he apparently shifts forms multiple times in battle with Albedo's aliens.
- Kirby Dots: The presumable glass openings on him show he's full of them.
- Large Ham: Rivals Rath as Ben's hammiest alien yet.
- Story-Breaker Power: Being second only to Alien X in power, this is a given. Ben's battle against Ultimate Grey Matter is almost effortless, just because Ben turns into this guy.
