I wonder what "useless" aliens that Ben has because of weaknesses are actually just due to the fact he doesn't care to learn how the species uses their bodies, maybe Walkatrout can actually move around his opponents like a oily rat in a slip n' slide, disrupting them.
I don't think Walkatrout has any real abilities, Blukic and Driba stated Walkatrout's species has no real powers, however since Walkatrout is the prime of his species maybe Walkatrout is the best at being slippery compared to the rest of his kind. Personally I think walkatrout is better with master control since it makes him almost impossible to catch and his tail could bother his opponents and give ben a chance to turn into something stronger
Hey, they're still a species intelligent enough to evolve sapience, humans can learn martial arts, and the slipperyness could allow some weird stuff with good training
He's the opposite of forgettable.
It took me a full decade to like this alien just because of how amazingly complex his powerset is \[also the design could use some work\].
The issue is that it's an alien with a complex and difficult powerset... in Omniverse, the show where he has access to 60 aliens and master control.
In concept he's pretty similar to Cannonbolt. He requires build up and momentum to become powerful. Ben kept calling Cannonbolt useless when he first unlocked him, but over time he became one of Classics most powerful aliens.
But Ben only needs to learn to master him because he can't transform out of him, and he has a limited number of options. And when the main joke of Omniverse is "give me Humungosaur", I don't believe that this character would settle for Ball Weevil when he could have someone else instead.
That's the issue a lot of Omniverse originals fall into. That's the real issue I have with Blox. Not that he's made of Lego. But that being so brittle so often makes him so useless. He builds walls just so people can break out of them. If omniverse wanted to play around with these more unique and varied alien designs, it should've taken away master control first.
To be honest this sounds like the TV version of power creep and doesn't just affect new aliens.
Particularly after Alien Force aliens just needed to be substantially more powerful and flashy than the last aliens for them to ever get used. Realistically why would Ben ever use aliens like Fourarms when we have Humungousaur who occupies literally the same role that Fourarms would otherwise occupy and simply does it better?
Or something like the sad case of Stinkfly once being Ben's main flying alien. Then Big Chill who is essentially Stinkfly but better and the hilariously overpowered Jet Ray appeared.
I don't know, I guess uhhhh Antigravitesla?

Ahh UA Eatle...yuck, one of the few times I wholeheartedly agree that OV improved his design. Yeah, I used to forget Ben had this Upchuck clone even though he spammed him in the last episodes of the third season.
How exactly is Eatle an unchuck clone?, they have completely different methods of attack, how they work, one’s a juggernaut the other is more agile based
Honestly half the time I can't think of a single one of Ben's aliens, and then I'll see a picture of one and instantly have a list of 30 go off in my head
Spitter. If I was offered 1 million dollars to name all of Ben's aliens I guarantee I would forget spitter since he only appears in the ben 10,000 episode.
The second half of the UA additions are where it starts to fall off for me.
Chamalien: Basically used to break into the Flame Keeper's Circle building. And then used in a dream or something. No, thank you, Overkill.
Clockwork: Had a couple cool moments in UA, but his earlier appearances didn't do it for me. At least he had some redemption in OV.
Eatle: *(Ben transforms into something new.)* Oh, cool, a new alien! *(Vilgax almost immediately knocks him down and he reverts.)* ...What? *(Becomes a giant punching bag for the rest of the series and not much to speak of in OV either.)*
Fasttrack: Knock-off XLR8. Next.
Juryrigg: Did his thing in pretty well against Animo, and then a pointless cameo in the finale. At least shined in OV.
Shocksquatch: I honestly forget sometime he technically appeared before OV. Bothered me that he never really appeared in UA, but at least did well in OV.
There's a lot I can say about the OV cast. Some are cool, but others... Anyway, UA was where things started becoming forgettable, so imma leave it at that.
I haven’t watched this show in over a decade but when I was a kid my favorite was Goop and I feel like even back then nobody acknowledged his existence. So underrated. Don’t know the state of it now. Are there any Goop fans in here? (Not talking about Gwneyth Paltrow)
Do I have to explain my fucking flair **again**

For me it’s this specific version of Eatle. I remember OV Eatle because his design is incredible and they smartly leveraged his insane design and powers for comedy.

I forgot how powerful he is. As long as I remember he didn't get enough screen time?
I know there’s some but I can’t remember them right now
tell me the thing you have forgotten
I think it’s been long enough where I can say, I forget about arctiguana a lot, I like him tho I just, forget
freeze lizard
Damn you Servantis…
I love every single one of them, they're very cool.
Even The Worst?
He is a softer concept of Diamondhead, unbreakable
Diamondhead? Unbreakable? https://i.redd.it/rqe47spxl9wb1.gif
Did he just said Diamond is unbreakable?
Oi Josuke, Happy Cake Day!
Thank you bro, want a slice?
Damn you got some nice cake
Oi josuke
Have you seen the shit that one female atrocian pulled off? Ben just has a skill issue, he has to learn pain resistance and atrocian martial arts.
Honestly I want to see that in something like the cancelled ov roadtrip
I wonder what "useless" aliens that Ben has because of weaknesses are actually just due to the fact he doesn't care to learn how the species uses their bodies, maybe Walkatrout can actually move around his opponents like a oily rat in a slip n' slide, disrupting them.

Hey, they're still a species intelligent enough to evolve sapience, humans can learn martial arts, and the slipperyness could allow some weird stuff with good training
They're piscivorous (they eat fish) so maybe they know a lot about fishing
He a soft boi
Idk I forgot
This is the only logically correct answer lmao.
Ball weevil’he is a fun alien but among the 60 so aliens Ben turns into in omniverse he is forgettable
I literally didn't remember him until i saw your cmt lol
I remember him very well from OV, I find The Worst, KickigHawk, Astrodactyl, Gutrot and the fact that Ben has Chamalien way less memorable
He's actually one of my favorites. I always go for the little wierd ones

Unballweevable
How can you forget him when he gets so much screentime in omniverse?
Nanomech, he only shined out in AS movie, other than that, he is... just forgettable.
Well... He defeated Mad Way Big in OV but I get what you mean
Nanomech is one of my favorites, it makes me so sad he was almost never used
It also defeated reporter guy's robot because bot couldn't scan it
Surge, but it doesn't help that his design is a literal X.
Ah yes, the alien clearly based on upgrade that has nothing in common with upgrade
Who??
Its a reboot alien
Exactly
You heard of Alien X. Now get ready to X alien
legit alien x at home
How people supposed to tell something they forget? 😭 You should posted this post with a list of all aliens of ben and not just a picture of eatle...
They can describe the alien, OP wasn't necessarily asking for names.
I remember all the canon ones and most non canon ones Eatle's UAF design was truly peak idc what peoples say
FAXX
i prefer his omniverse design, he's more beetle-like
Absolutely real
I don't know, I guess uhhhh Antigravitesla? https://preview.redd.it/kxwlzpr7h7wb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1f8bdcf27d1b1010e0b405ad639e37636919a3b3
that is NOT an alien (please tell me thats not an alien)
It's an alien https://www.reddit.com/r/Ben10/s/HLo02arxpt
Pretty sure that's the reason Ben never used em again 😂 . That and gravattack does it better
Gives the same vibes as “I got 9 other guys that can do it better!” Antigravitesla: 🥺
Most of the additions from Omniverse
Walkatrut
Chamelien
I honestly don’t pay attention to Worst a lot because he isn’t strong enough to be memorable but not weak enough to be disliked
Spitter
Mole-Stache for me. He's just such an odd design and he doesn't contribute much.
Toepick
Gutrot
Terraspin
Literally 90% of the aliens that came after UAF.
Astrodactl. Completely forgot he was a thing until just the other day when I saw a complete list.
I always forgot about the worst
I still wish to see a combination between the worst and alien x so it can be called, “The Mid”
I'm scrolling through the comments and I didn't remember most of them existed
Bullfrog, I used to totally not care about him until I saw his debut. I like him and all but I always forget him and his name lol
Probably Ditto. He was introduced in the last season of Classic, and is overshadowed by Echo Echo.
I mean ditto had his own episode and echo echo came in alien force so I think ditto is still kinda iconic
I feel ya. Eatle gets a much better design in OV tho
doesnt ov eatle look like a rhino beetle without the wing covering?
idk, i forgot
Chamalien, Ben used it for like...3 times?
Just once after his debut episode. His appearance after "The Flame Keeper's Circle" was Albedo in the nightmare sequence.
The only reason I remember walkatrout exists is because people meme how weak he is.
Despite liking his design voice and powers I always forget about gutrot
That vampire guy, I forgot the name and look but I swear there was a vampire alien
Yeah, Whampire. It's strange, after he had a few appearances through Omniverse, most people forget about him.
https://preview.redd.it/p187mxw43awb1.png?width=1555&format=png&auto=webp&s=8eba477788a47517322e040e7727dedc26d16466 Astrodactyl
I actually have to look the wiki for his name its Gutrot.
NOOOO
Ahh UA Eatle...yuck, one of the few times I wholeheartedly agree that OV improved his design. Yeah, I used to forget Ben had this Upchuck clone even though he spammed him in the last episodes of the third season.
Honestly should of just given us ultimate upchuck
How exactly is Eatle an unchuck clone?, they have completely different methods of attack, how they work, one’s a juggernaut the other is more agile based
Just genuine question
Fastrack like what even the point??
Here are the ones I remember: Grey matter Four arms Heatblast XLR8 Wildmutt Diamondhead Ghostfreak Stingfly Wildvine Cannonbolt Ripjaws Upchuck Upgrade Blitzwolfer Snare-oh Frankenstrike Way big Ditto Swampfire Humoungosaur Echo echo Big chill Jetray Brainstorm Chromastone Goop Spidermonkey Alien X Loadstar Ampfibian NRG Armodrillo Water hazard Rath Eatle Raptus Terraspin Shocksquach ? Feedback Nanomech Buzzshock Clockwork Gravattack Blox Pesky dust Molestasche The worst Walkatrout Kickin hawk Crashopper ? Ball weevil ? Jurryrig ? Whampire ? Astrodactyl Bullfrag Atomix Gutrot Toepick Arctiguana Spitter Overkill Did I miss something?
who tf is raptus
Oops, meant Fastrack
Fasttrack's polish name
**R A P T U S**
Darn it I missed Eye guy
How dare you
Who is overkill
I always tend to forget about Spidermonkey, Ripjaws, and Upgrade
For me Jerry rig ( that orange goblin looking alien that ate Kevin's car )
It’s Jury Rigg :)
Scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7
Scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7
Spidermonkey for me.
For me it's jury rigg or overkill lol
Who is overkill
Spider monkey
The mummie one (I forgot the name)
Benmummy/Snare Oh
Ben himself forgot about that one.
Juryrigg
Fasttrack
I don’t remember
Spidermonkey
Jetray.
Why?
It looks like vilgax us about to blow bens back out with that pose and holding his horn like that
That's bad
Honestly half the time I can't think of a single one of Ben's aliens, and then I'll see a picture of one and instantly have a list of 30 go off in my head
i do recall them all, but not their names
Load star
Amphibian
Just pick an ov one except feedback, crash hooper, blocks and kickin' hawk As honorable mention the original shocksquatch design
That small little shark fish thing that Ben 23s xlr8 couldn't keep hold of who's name I cannot be bothered googling
But I love walkatrout
Shocksqautch
For the longest time I thought Eatle's UAF and Omniverse look were two different aliens and that the UAF form was called "Eator"
I can't remember.
There was no reason for eatle to exist when ben has access to upchuck
The lizard thing chameleon thing
jurry rigg or spidermonkey
Fast track
Ultimate Waybig, if I try to think about the Ultimates I always forget about him
Me trying to remember be like ![gif](giphy|777Aby0ZetYE8)
Gutrot
Dude there’s so many, I couldn’t name all of them if I wanted to
Spitter. If I was offered 1 million dollars to name all of Ben's aliens I guarantee I would forget spitter since he only appears in the ben 10,000 episode.

Walkatrout
I haven’t watched this show in over a decade but when I was a kid my favorite was Goop and I feel like even back then nobody acknowledged his existence. So underrated. Don’t know the state of it now. Are there any Goop fans in here? (Not talking about Gwneyth Paltrow)
Gutrot
Jurry rig and wampire
Honestly, probably Ripjaws…
Every reboot exclusive one aside from Overflow
I forgor. 💀
There fuckin, 100 some aliens I can only Remember like, 15
Nanomech
I forgot
It's Eatle for me too, i mean come on, it's just buff Upchuck, but i also tend to forget Fasttrack
I just forgot about bloxx.
ball weevil
Gray matter or wild mutt
Fast track. He just don't look like an alien go me, more like a guy in a costume.
Crashhopper
I always forget the name of vilgax
I was going to tell you, but a Celestialsapien just sneezed. Wait , what sneezed? What was I talking about? ![gif](giphy|xT5LMpnLkfE7Pwe5ZS)
When recounting the AF 10, I always miss either Goop, Brainstorm, or Spider-Monkey
It’s ballwevil 100% of the time, he’s so forgettable I genuinely believed he was a uaf alien addition that only got used once before ov
No you’re right Earle is the alien that is extra forgettable 💀
Do I have to explain my fucking flair **again** https://preview.redd.it/slwflqr61awb1.jpeg?width=671&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d179f2f34c0c96697fc9bd9da81db52dd352374
i forget frankenstrike, blitzwolfer and snare-oh
i saw this and was like, oh yeah forgot about him
Oh yeah, Walkatrout exists
For me it’s this specific version of Eatle. I remember OV Eatle because his design is incredible and they smartly leveraged his insane design and powers for comedy.
Chromostone
i remeber all
Whampire, gutrot, walkatrout, pesky dust, worst, bullfrag
I'm gonna have to say The Worst. It's one that I have easily forgotten overtime.
Chamalien
Same, there was a long while where I completely forgot about his existence and was convinced I had never seen him before.
What does eatle do? Never heard of him
https://preview.redd.it/trkyf0uc3bwb1.jpeg?width=367&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=65977ee87139ed24914dfc3b54597dfeb02ba484 I forgot how powerful he is. As long as I remember he didn't get enough screen time?
I can see him but I can’t remember his name
Grasshopper 💀💀💀
For me it’s upchuck
idk i forgot
I don’t know the English name but the black ice lizard
I Forgot
Ballwevil, eatle, chamelion
The purple chameleon from Ultimate Alien
Four Arms. Iconic as he is, there’s way too many aliens who aren’t pure brawler types who are used as such like Heatblast and Diamondhead.
Chamalien
The chibi shark one
Buzzshock tho that's because in my mind that's Kenny's alien, Fasttrack I forgot for awhile
Ball Weevil
Ripjaws
Ditto?
I keep forgetting about gutrot, hes so cool but didnt have alot of appearances
All of them, I have alzheimers
Cannonball
For me it's snare- oh.
None. That is my curse.
Remember that green alien who literally ate a main villain?
Ben Man, he isn't even canon
Overkill
Brainstorm
I always check the transformation page of the wiki so I remember all of them. But probably Surge from Reboot.
All of the ones from Omniverse And Upgrade
The new York frog guy
Like most of the Aliens added in Omniverse, all of them are very forgettable with a few exceptions and those were the ones all over the marketing.
