#antitrix

Someone made a post on reddit how they didnt like how kevin was the one who made the antitrix and it was in his garage and i saw one comment talking about "CN made the right call to not let them take control of the original series". I take a break off of ben 10 reddit (or atleast be on there less), and this is what i come back to 😒.

I'm finishing off the Antitrix transformations for this month with a pretty exciting one in Undertow!

The universe this version of Kevin and the Antitrix are a part of doesn't have any of the reboot's new aliens species. They simply don't exist. Naturally, that means that within the Antitrix, the slots dedicated to them will have to be filled in with combos of classic aliens instead!

Ripjaws was Ben's og aquatic alien, so it was only natural to make him the basis for this version of Undertow. There also just so happens to be a perfect alien I could combine him with to keep some of og Undertow's powers! That alien being Spitter!

Undertow is a lot bulkier than Ripjaws and, as a result, much stronger than him, too. While his bite isn't much stronger than Ripjaws', since his mouth is so much bigger, his bites are still a lot more destructive, anyway. Undertow has a special organ in his chest that produces a dirty watery mucus, which he can spew from his mouth. That same mucus also helps him to moisturize while out of water, allowing him to stay on dry land a lot longer than Ripjaws. Being merged with a species that permanently has a tail had removed Undertow's ability to go from legs to tail. That and his added bulk make him significantly slower and less agile in water compared to Ripjaws.

Undertow is a fairly straightforward fusion of Ripjaws and Spitter. His color scheme and the ridges on his tail were all details chosen to make him look a bit more alligator-like.

So, I don't know how popular the Antitrix is. But I think it's one of the coolest ideas to come from the reboot series. It's like the middle ground between the Omnitrix and Ultimatrix. However, every time I look at it, I can't help but think "This feels more like a Dr. Animo concept." And I do know the full history and involvement with Vilgax.

Hear me out. Dr. Animo's whole thing is mutating animals and he's gotten his hands on parts of the Omnitrix and the DNA of different aliens before. He's also a capable mechanical engineer if some of his inventions are anything to go by.

The aliens all have hybridized mutations because Kevin is a mutant osmosian hybrid.

It’s the less advanced device interacting with this abnormal dna so as a result,instead of turning him into natural purebreds(I’m only using that word for a lack of a better term) it turns him into mutated hybrids and since osmosian powers are…volatile,the mutations and hybridizations are random.

Anyways I figured I’d list my ideas

dark matter: mutant 47 percent Galvan 28 percent Aerophibian 19 percent polymorph 17 percent planchaküle
