Team Teen

    In General 
  • Heroes Unlimited: Team Teen seems to be shaping up to be this in "The Assembly", in which they recruit several teenage heroes to combat the threat of the Aku Virus.
  • Kid Hero: As stated by their team name, many of the members' ages range from early teens to late teens.

Original Members

    Kim Possible 
From the city of Middleton, Kim Possible is a freelance hero, taking any assignments, travelling across the world and battling supervillains. Her motto is “She can do anything.”
  • Badass Normal: She is the only one in Team Teen to not have superpowers or abilities. Yet, she is in charge of Team Teen and her prowess in martial arts and gymnastics are enough to take down Rath.
  • The Leader: To Team Teen. She's the one that has to keep her teammates focus on the mission at hand in "The Meeting".
  • Powered Armor: Kim possesses a battlesuit which she brings out for more extreme situations.

    Danny Fenton/Danny Phantom 
Danny Fenton is from Amity Park, born to a ghost hunting family. When he was at the age of 14, Danny was caught in a freak accident that imbued his DNA with ghost energy. From that point on, he protected his home from a myriad of ghostly entities.

    Jake Long/The American Dragon 
Belonging to a line of dragon protectors, Jake became the protector of the magical denizens of New York as the first American Dragon.

    Jenny Wakeman/XJ- 9 
XJ-9 was the latest creation of a series of super robots, made by scientist, Nora Wakeman. Adopting the name of “Jenny,” she defended her home, Tremerton from an array of supervillains, robots and aliens, but mostly wanted to live a normal teenage life.

    Ben Tennyson/Ben 10 
A famous celebrity hero from Bellwood. When he was 10 years old, Ben stumbled upon the powerful device, the Omnitrix during his road-trip with his family. With the Omnitrix, Ben can shapeshift into any kind of alien across the universe.
  • Aloof Ally: Team Teen have shown to have a hard time working with Ben due to his arrogant personality. Ben reveals to Sonic he never actually liked the idea of working in a team, not only because he felt it was just one-time gig but more importantly, he truly did not want to outshine any of his teammates. Thankfully, Sonic convinces him to give it another try.
  • Combo Platter Powers: Ben's Omnitrix grants him the ability to change into any alien, each one possessing their own unique abilities.
  • Didn't Think This Through: Pointed out in the very first short. When Ben suggests that he should go alone and take down whatever bad guys Team Teen was facing, the team calls out Ben, telling him that won't work since their enemies outnumber them and know all their weaknesses.
  • Hypocrite: Ben derides Rick Sanchez as a wanted criminal and the annoyed Rick simply says he won't take this nonsense from the guy that destroyed the Universe (even if Ben fixed it in the end).

New Recruits

    Steven Universe 
A young boy, son of the human, Greg Universe, and the alien Gem, Rose Quartz. Steven defends his hometown of Beach City against corrupted Gem monsters alongside the Crystal Gems (Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl) and his best friend, Connie Maheswaran.
  • Fusion Dance: Steven can merge with his teammates into more powerful forms to fight stronger opponents, as seen with Smokey Quartz (with Amethyst) and even Stevonnie (with Connie).
  • Hero-Worshipper: Steven is a fanboy for Ben 10.
  • Humble Hero: Although Connie calls him a member of Team Teen (and Wade even calls him a “new recruit” in "The Meeting"), Steven insists that he's an “honorary” member.

    Star Butterfly 
The bubbly, yet rambunctious Princess of the Kingdom of Mewni. In hopes that it would curb her rowdiness and help hone her skills with the Royal Wand, Star was sent by her parents to Echo Creek on Earth where she currently resides with her best friend, Marco Diaz, and together they defend Earth and Mewni from a wide variety of evil forces.

Other Allies

    Wade 

  • Mission Control: Much like in his home series, he serves as the Team's info gatherer and mission provider.

    The Pines Family 
A family with a penchant for the paranormal, consisting of 13-year-old twins, Dipper and Mabel, and their great uncles (Grunkles), paranormal researcher Stanford Pines, and his con artist twin brother, Stanley Pines. After spending the summer season in the town of Gravity Falls, Oregon and surviving the apocalyptic Weirdmaggedon of Bill Cipher, circumstances force the two generations of Pines twins to reunite once again.
  • Badass Normal: None of them have any special powers, but they don't need them. All they need is Dipper's ingenuity, Mabel's trusty grappling hook, Ford's expertise, and Stan's two good fists.
  • The Load: Dipper says he felt useless back when Team Teen helped them fight the Gem Monster in Gravity Falls (at least Mabel had help from Star's Laser Puppy), so he tries to be prepared for anything in case another weird monster drops by.
  • Papa Wolf: Both Stan and Ford are very protective of their niece and nephew, to the point when they'll forgo catching another Aku sample to save them from Bill. Stan especially takes offense when Rick calls the kids “useless” after Bill escapes.

    Rick Sanchez & Morty Sanchez-Smith 
The “smartest man in the universe/multiverse” and his grandson. Using his trusty Portal Gun, Rick is constantly travelling across the Multiverse and causing chaos with the ever-reluctant Morty not far behind.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: Rick may be on the good guys' side, but whether it's because he's an infamous inter-galactic criminal or just an overall jackass, it's not hard to see why the other heroes don't like him very much.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Make no mistake, Rick is an unapologetic jackass, but there is some measure of goodness underneath it all. He shows genuine concern for Morty when Bill zaps him, and although he turns down Moana's request to help her return to her time (since he doesn't do time travel), he does at least have Ben point her in the direction of someone who can: Professor Paradox.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: As Ford points out, the Aku sample Rick brought to the Team Teen universe wouldn't have been running rampant, or revived Bill Cipher, if he kept tighter tabs on it in the first place.

    Sonic 
The fastest thing alive… at least in his home dimension. The blue hedgehog came to Team Teen's universe with other speedsters to help save Rainbow Dash. After succeeding, he eventually decides to stay to help fight Bill and Aku.
  • Bash Brothers: He seems to have formed this dynamic with Ben 10, especially when the later is in his XLR-8 form.
  • Commonality Connection: Sonic and Amethyst hit it off over their usage of Spin Dashes.
  • I Choose to Stay: Even though he has a ticket home via Professor Paradox, Sonic stays in Ben's universe to help fight Bill, realizing that he's too dangerous to leave alone.

Aku and the Infected

    Aku 
The shape-shifting Master of Darkness. Aku hails from a despotic future timeline where his evil was law, until a Samurai called “Jack” defeated him by destroying Aku in the past. Before the future corrected itself, Aku sent fragments of his dark essence to several worlds across the multiverse so that can he begin his dark reign once more…
  • Alternate Self: It turns out Aku had one in Team Teen's universe during the Edo Period. The difference, of course, is that their universe's Jack killed that Aku before the latter could send his mortal enemy into the future.
  • Crazy-Prepared: After realizing just how screwed he was when Jack returned to the past, Aku quickly calls his scientists and we learn he had a backup plan for this; send fragments of himself into different worlds outside of his timeline so that he can reform and live again.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: It's Aku that kickstarted the events of Team Teen, as he spread his pieces throughout the Multiverse to conquer them.

    Bill Cipher 
An inter-dimensional demon and the arch-nemesis of the Pines Family. Thought to be dead after the Pines trapped him in Grunkle Stan's mind and disintegrated him with Ford's memory eraser, a sample of Aku's essence attached to Stan and gathered all of Bill's fragmented remains, becoming a new body for Bill's twisted mind. Now, he seeks to get his revenge on the Pines, especially Dipper and Mabel, and conquer the universe.
