However a number of irreconcilable elements such as Ben 10,000 still having the original Omnitrix and his antagonistic relationship with Kevin mean its more likely to be a close but not exact match.

* GiverOfLameNames: At his past self's urging, Ben 10,000 still names his alien forms after their immediately noticeable traits. But, after years without doing so, his skills have gotten rusty and he gives an ice-based alien the decidedly boring name of "Absolute Zero." Present Ben gives him the name "Arcticguana" instead.
Added DiffLines:
* NoNameGiven: Ben 10,000 no longer names his alien forms, more likely using their actual species names; as such, his Sphoeroid and Megawatt forms aren't named, although present Ben would later name them once he unlocked them himself (the former Spitter, the latter Buzzshock). When using a reptilian, ice-based alien to freeze Vilgax underwater, at Ben's prompting he tries dubbing it "[[GiverOfLameNames Absolute Zero]]," which present Ben dismisses in favor of [[AvertedTrope Arcticguana]].

* CripplingOverspecialization: Vilgax plays with this. He is brought back to life by Animo, now genetically engineered to handle all of Ben 10,000's alien forms, so nothing he does can surprise him. The one form he ''isn't'' prepared to handle though is Ben's own human form. Ben 10,000 eventually decides to stop fighting Vilgax head on as an alien and uses his human form, and some help from his ten-year old self, to lure him into a trap where he defeats Vilgax by freezing him.
* FightsLikeANormal: Since Vilgax is now genetically prepared to deal with any alien Ben 10,000 uses, Ben 10,000 decides to stop fighting in his alien forms and uses his human form to out-smart Vilgax
