That's how Omniverse designs half of its female characters. It's an artsyle thing.

Six Six the bounty hunter honestly has some interesting lore for being a side character.

-He only speaks his native tongue yet everybody understands him

-He has a brother and two sisters who are mercenaries like him

- His armor is built from a war droid he gutted(and apparently that's a regular thing on his homeworld; what kind of planet is Sotoragg?)

- His kind apparently name themselves through numbers yet we don't know in what order

- His freakish appearance is a mutation, this is actually backed up when we see Seven Seven's eye in Alien Force.

- He disguises himself on Incarcecon with a weird witch like outfit, apparently because he doesn't want people challenging him.

Also he doesn't even seem to have a grudge on Ben that much. He only runs into him when something forces him to, like when he's picking up a rare element on earth or going after his real arch rival Tetrax. In fact poor guy didn't even seem happy working for Vilgax in Secret Of The Omnitrix.

Vilgax is not a good employer. Six Six hated working for him so much he actually drew his weapons on Vilgax, only to reconsider once Vilgax made it clear he was outmatched.

Makes you wonder what made Psyphon loyal to Vilgax if everyone else in the galaxy is too afraid of him to ally with him full time.

he's probably just fine with the benefits over the drawbacks

I mean, Vilgax isn't always that bad of a boss tongue

Also Six Six's kind is one of the few species who don't seem to have natural superpowers, outside their tech.

If the Omnitrix scanned Sotoraggian DNA, would the alien form be a regular specimen or come equipped like how NRG has a containment suit?

Would Ben speak English or would his speech be in alien tongue ala Wildmutt?

So, what would happen if Ben lost his arm when transformed as an alien that can't regenerate limbs like Swampfire, Wildvine, and Snare-Oh? Would he also lose the Omnitrix too since it's on his wrist in human form or would he be stuck in alien form?

The Sunder episode gave one outcome for that plot, but that was a specific scenario. I'm not sure it applies normally.

[up]That was for when Ben was a human. I was referring to if he was transformed as an alien that can't regenerate limbs.

[up]The Omnitrix can basically do genetic magic. It wouldn't be surprising if it repairs damage to it's host's body. In Animorphs demorphing heals the morpher's injuries(even if it's still psychologically scarring).

Also Derek J Wyatt once theorized of a tumeline where Ghostfreak(Zs'Skayr) actually learned to coexist with Ben and became a friend. Anybody wonder how that played out?

Maybe something like this:

Zs'Skayr: I was never you! The watch trapped my consciousness inside!
Ben: Wow, Really? That's horrible, I'm sorry I didn't know!
Zs'Skayr: Yes, now-wait. Did you just say sorry?
Ben: Yeah! If I'd known I was using a living creature like that, I'd try to help you.
Zs'Skayr: I don't believe it! All this time I've raged at you for holding me prisoner, and you showed me compassion. I feel like Gourmand excretion.
Ben: I don't think I want to know what that is. But c'mon, don't be down. Remember when you kicked the crud out of that evil clown? You still helped me out a lot Ghostfrea-
Zs'Skayr: DON'T CALL ME THAT! It's like a human being called "Flesh Thing", my name is Zs'Skayr!
Ben: oh man, guess I need sensitivity training. How about I call you "Z" for short?
Zs'Skayr: Okay. But what am I going to do now? I'm stranded on your deadly planet!
Ben:I can think of something.

Yeah I think the Omnitrix probably has some really bizarre defences in case someone just tries to cut off the arm. See Vilgax's little arsenal during his first face to face with Ben. Sure he's an asshole but he could possibly just ripped it off normally back on the ground.

The multiverse concept, which would be significant in later episodes of Omniverse, begins here when Ben visits an alternate dimension.

Also I don't think Electriyeti is a terrible name. It sounds like something young Ben would come up with. There are arguably worse names such as Stinkfly

Is there a reason the concept of "ultimate" aliens was no longer as explored except by Albedo?

Joshbones Since: May, 2015
#719: Apr 12th 2024 at 11:37:53 AM

In universe, the Ultimatrix was Albedo's idea and so Azmuth's perfected omnitrix wouldn't have it.

Out of universe, the writing team clearly weren't too attached to the gimmick, as Ben barely uses any of those tranformations ever.

theCrimson64 Since: Aug, 2022 Relationship Status: Sinking with my ship
#720: Apr 12th 2024 at 11:48:33 AM

To be fair, creating Ultimate forms for more than 7 aliens would've been too ambitious for the show.

Either they're busy working on new projects (as Duncan mentioned) or that CN completely gave up on the franchise

SpongeGuy11 Since: Jun, 2018
#723: Apr 12th 2024 at 2:59:07 PM

Considering the bad shape Warner Bros is in because of Zaslav, there's a chance the franchise is probably gonna be on hiatus for a while until better management stabilizes things.

Supposedly one of the ideas for Omniverse season 4 was a new Negative 10 consisting of alien criminals of the same species as Ben's aliens. I don't know if they mean the original 10 exactly, but that's actually a cool idea.

Apparently it would've included Malware and Z'skayr. I could see those two becoming best buddies.

I doubt this franchise got abandoned. It's a big money maker.

Scar himself looks like foreign, weak, and with very female moves.
