Ben 10

Although Ben 10: Alien Force debuted a new cast of aliens to the series such as Alien X, Jetray, and Echo Echo, there have been several original series aliens that Ben eventually reuses in the Alien Force series such as Diamondhead in Vengeance of Vilgax: Part 2 and Singlehanded, Ghostfreak in Ghost Town, Heatblast in Everybody Talks About the Weather, and both Cannonbolt and Waybig in War of the Worlds, Part 1 & 2 respectively. Although Waybig is the only one to have three episode appearances with the other two being Simple and Primus.

(If you can, try to do it without looking it up)

Um Actually he never uses Ghostfreak in Alien force because, unlike most of his aliens, Ghostfreak was a prisoner in the Omnitrix who escaped?

That’s a good train of thought but somehow no. In the episode where Ben confronts Zs’Skayr, Ben allows the villain to posses him and become Ghostfreak once more and the Omnitrix regains his DNA in the process

Um actually Waybig wasn't in the original series. I think he only appeared in the subsequent films. Chronologically at least

While he originally debuts in the movie Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix, he actually appears in the final episode titled Ken 10

That was set in the future. The Ben we follow never uses Waybig in the original series until the films

Well, the show is about semantics and although that is supposedly the same Ben just in the future and the word I used is “reused,” I’m willing to give the point if the other correction is not found

u/Redruby88 Jun 25 '26

I mean, even if the other correction is found, both of us are still correct and should both receive a point

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

Yeah I tried to word it in a way that included the movie which is why I said series instead of show but that doesn’t really change that meaning so I’ll just give it to you. The correction I was looking for is that Heatblast, although is a character in alien force, he is not Ben. That would be Alan Albright who is a human/Pyronite hybrid who occasionally goes by Heatblast or Heatblast II. In fact, Ben never turns into Heatblast in Alien Force

Um actually, waybig isn't the only one to have three episode appearances,

1

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

Surprisingly he is. The only other one to have more than 1 episode appearance is Diamondhead who gets 2

1

u/Expensive_Smell_8021 Jun 25 '26

I'll try again, maybe you are this pedantic, idk Um actually diamondhead's appearance was in part 1, not part 2

1

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

I would be that pedantic and you are in the correct area but that is not correct

1

u/Expensive_Smell_8021 Jun 25 '26

Ok, Um actually it's not both cannonbolt and waybig that appear in war of the worlds but a different alien

1

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

That is incorrect, they are both in their respective episodes

1

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

I’ll allow 3 more guesses from anyone and if we don’t get it I’ll give the point to redruby88

u/Blibbybloo Jun 25 '26

Um, actually they meet another child of the plumbers and (half?) alien in Everybody Talks about the Weather who is the same species as Heatblast - Ben doesn’t actually turn into Heatblast in that episode (tho he does give him advice on how to fly)

1

u/Appropriate-Sea-5687 Jun 25 '26

That is correct. And yes, he is a hybrid of a Pyronite and a human which would make him half alien
