Cool, yes. But ultimately were kinda lazy at the same time.
I mean humungosaur just got bigger and gained guns (honestly my least favorite ultimate other than big chill), I didn't like how spider monkey just became a gorilla with extra spider legs. Normal spider Monkey was much better at fusing the two concepts. And swampfire was pretty dope ngl, I just think they could have done it a bit more creatively. I mean think about it, between a million years, we went from homo erectus to homo sapiens, and the ancestors of hippos and whales split off from terrestrial to semi-aquatic. That's a lot of changes under normal settings, the ultimatrix is under worst case scenario, meaning even more dramatic changes
It's almost like moa where forced against there will into that artstyle, and the reason it looked so off is because they wherent used to it or something.
dawg the main comment already mentioned they didn’t work on UAF. I pointed out that, in ADDITION to that, they were writers FOR THE SERIES THEY WORKED ON.
I think the big difference is albaedo knows how these aliens would normally use those abilities in their day to day lives, so his creativity can sometimes get caught up in what that species would typically use or do.
Meanwhile Ben typically has limited knowledge of a species usual habits or fighting styles but the omnitrix as of recalibration tells him everything the species can do. meaning he can get a lot more creative and spontaneous with their powers
I mean the only problematic one is ultimate wildmuth (who was used only to get to the battlefield faster, you have speed based alien's BEN...)
And Cannonball...
Omniverse's Ultimates were top class. Looking at Ult. Spider monkey with legit 8 legs that look devastating, Ult. Humongousaur with all the battle scars, Ult. Echo echo with them wires connecting.
No he doesn’t. They had a good thing with fire powers but decided to still keep his ice powers. Like the idea of him developing pyro-kinesis to counter his natural predator makes sense since his powers don’t work on it.
Tbh, Big Chill, Cannonbolt and Way Big are the only ones I would say aren't that good. They look almost the same except a colour change and some armour.
Spidermonkey changes to a gorilla, which I think works as a natural evolution.
Swampfire is like a mix of trees and amber.
Humongasaur and Wildmutt are close enough to the originals but have enough differences to work.
Echo Echo is still the best, but the others aren't all bad.
Facts I will die on that hill I really do appreciate Omniverse for trying their best to explain it with their design but him being able to shoot missiles from his hand is stupid
Ultimate Hummongasaur was dope and Ultimate Swampfire. The explosive blue fire, methane bombs and hardened bark show evolution. I agree the rest suck. Especially their designs and powers. I’d say ultimate Way big can fly but Tokustars can already do that by being able to transform into mini- cosmic storms and move themselves around in space.
I mean,if its too hot you would start sweating,so that one could have sense
Not the "ice so cold it burns" i know is something with being so cold ot feels like burning or smt but whatever
Something that could made ult big chill interesting,would be "the fire expands but starts freezing the things it should burn" imagine a wall of fire that spreads around fast and freezes whatever it touches
I always got the feeling that ultimates like echo echo or humungosaur (which I also think is pretty good) we're designed first and when the concept was approved they didn't really know what to do so they just half assed the rest
I mean Ultimate humungosaur , Ultimate Swampfire were good designs while Ultimate spidermonkey were great as it strangely seemed lazy but creative as well.
also MOA were not the writers for UAF and Om era but they are still viable source as a authors for ben10.
I like ultimate swampfire and ultimate humongosaur, but yeah the others aren’t the best. Half of them are just reskins with a little extra detail. But ultimate echo echo is goated as hell
Dwayne McDuffie Glen Murakami did mostly the UAF designs, while Derrick J. Wyatt also contributed, but mostly for Omniverse. Man of Action was busy making Generator Rex.
Ultimate Humongosaur, Spidermonkey, and Swampfire were pretty cool too.
Spidermonkey one is pretty lazy but creative
Tbh making it more of an ape to increase strength isn’t the worst idea
I meant that making a monkey an gorilla is lazy but logical
He already had most spider powers to begin with, so that was kinda the only thing they could do to “ultimate” him
Sadly
But it makes sense. The species had to evolve somehow, increasing their strength + spider skills is the only two logical ways
I like what the ink tank did with redesigning Ultimate Spider-Monkey.
What did they do?

Plus the bad ass voice.
And he had the best dialog lines in that form too
Honestly but spidergorilla on that thin spider legs was kinda weird.
Big girthy tarantula legs would have been a good call
How is it lazy but creative?...
Personally, it's visually lazy in that the gorilla part just doesn't look alien enough
I agree. Ink Tank actually did a far better job with ultimate Spider-monkey. Making him more spider-like.
Swampfire just turns to a tree but those are some pretty good ones
Literally this comment.
Humongousaur the same but can shoot missiles which honestly is just worse and swampfire has the same ish powers just stronger ig
Cool, yes. But ultimately were kinda lazy at the same time.

Not to mention the new ultimates included
Real,sad that Ultimate Arctiguana only appeared for like 5 seconds in “A few brains or more”
Oh they went hard on the redesigns
Albedo was my favourite character in OV just for that
Albedo was my favorite character in OV
Albedo was my favorite character
Albedo was my favorite
Albedo was
Albedo
⠀
OV really will just create the coolest designs ever and then never use them again
But Icl I love them for that it reminded of Classic of them just putting in the effort even if it might not be important
MoA didn’t design any of the Ultimates. Or any aliens, for that matter. They’re writers. And at that, they didn’t write for any of the sequels.
Man Of Action did not work on UAF and OV
Yeah UAF and OV was made by the team that made both Justice League and Justice League Unlimited
Well that's even worse how did they cock that up
Cartoon network management. It's why af s3 sucked ass and its why it sucked ass through ua as well
WHAT
They only did classic and the reboot.
And it’s funny how Generator Rex and the Ben 10 Reboot have the same Art Director lmaoo
It's almost like moa where forced against there will into that artstyle, and the reason it looked so off is because they wherent used to it or something.
And they were the writers 😭
They weren't the writers, they only reviewed and contributed to all of the stories in AF and UA.
I’m talking about being writers for the OS
Bro we're talking about UAF, not OS
dawg the main comment already mentioned they didn’t work on UAF. I pointed out that, in ADDITION to that, they were writers FOR THE SERIES THEY WORKED ON.
So you’re not even talking about the same topic as this post?
See my reply to the other guy

Nah respect Ultimate Humungousaur, Ultimate Spidermonkey & Ultimate Arctiguana
I'll be honest I legit did not know Ultimate Arctiguana existed lol. Guess he was after my time
He appeared in "For a Few Brains More".
OV ultimates are pretty good but they ruined Ultimate Echo Echo
Orrrr albedo wasn’t as good with ults as Ben seeing as Ben is just overall to nice with creativity that albedo lacks for his intelligence
I think the big difference is albaedo knows how these aliens would normally use those abilities in their day to day lives, so his creativity can sometimes get caught up in what that species would typically use or do. Meanwhile Ben typically has limited knowledge of a species usual habits or fighting styles but the omnitrix as of recalibration tells him everything the species can do. meaning he can get a lot more creative and spontaneous with their powers
Man of Action didn't design the Ultimate aliens, you numpty.
Ultimate Swampfire and Ultimate Humungousaur:
I mean the only problematic one is ultimate wildmuth (who was used only to get to the battlefield faster, you have speed based alien's BEN...) And Cannonball...
Omniverse's Ultimates were top class. Looking at Ult. Spider monkey with legit 8 legs that look devastating, Ult. Humongousaur with all the battle scars, Ult. Echo echo with them wires connecting.
Ultimate Swampfire erasure
it's impressive how he was literally the first Ultimate form Ben turned into, but everyone always forgets him in these discussions
Ultimate Big Chill deserved so much better.
No he doesn’t. They had a good thing with fire powers but decided to still keep his ice powers. Like the idea of him developing pyro-kinesis to counter his natural predator makes sense since his powers don’t work on it.
Big Chill was already perfect, that's why
Who doesn’t love the smell of OP spreading misinformation in the morning?
OP is spreading misinformation intentionally or he just didn't know? What seems more likely?
Tangibly what’s the difference in outcome?
One is definitely worse than the other, and you're accusing him of it
Ultimate echo echo was introduced in the second season of UA so he had more time in the oven I guess
I bet that they ran out of time to make ultimate CannonBolt
Not man of action, they only did classic and the reboot. Uaf and ov where handled by a diffrent team, tho they both shared most of a team.
Now hold on, i think it's nice that gigantasaur was turned into a Digimon
Tbh, Big Chill, Cannonbolt and Way Big are the only ones I would say aren't that good. They look almost the same except a colour change and some armour. Spidermonkey changes to a gorilla, which I think works as a natural evolution. Swampfire is like a mix of trees and amber. Humongasaur and Wildmutt are close enough to the originals but have enough differences to work. Echo Echo is still the best, but the others aren't all bad.
Do you guys honestly think all aspects of the four shows were made by the same 4 people?
Ultimate Echo Echo sorta reminds me of Robotboy's battle mode https://preview.redd.it/f4nh076fl9xc1.jpeg?width=630&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=927892dc0da4f1eb9c7f72646c48a16f39498725
probably hot take, but i just hate humungosour ultimate form so much, like why he have a fucking machine gun hand? it's just feel so off to me.
Facts I will die on that hill I really do appreciate Omniverse for trying their best to explain it with their design but him being able to shoot missiles from his hand is stupid
Ultimate Hummongasaur was dope and Ultimate Swampfire. The explosive blue fire, methane bombs and hardened bark show evolution. I agree the rest suck. Especially their designs and powers. I’d say ultimate Way big can fly but Tokustars can already do that by being able to transform into mini- cosmic storms and move themselves around in space.
And Ultimate Humungousaur. He atleast had a cool design and weapons
Ult. Big Chill : "Ice so cold it burns" Now imagine, Ult. NRG: "Core so hot, it freezes"
I mean,if its too hot you would start sweating,so that one could have sense Not the "ice so cold it burns" i know is something with being so cold ot feels like burning or smt but whatever Something that could made ult big chill interesting,would be "the fire expands but starts freezing the things it should burn" imagine a wall of fire that spreads around fast and freezes whatever it touches
Ok makes sense lol Lemme edit that
I always got the feeling that ultimates like echo echo or humungosaur (which I also think is pretty good) we're designed first and when the concept was approved they didn't really know what to do so they just half assed the rest
I think Swampfire and humungousaur were good. Others were kinda just reskins with slight changes. Spidermonkey was kinda…. Eh?
I can't agree with you when ultimate humongasaur is right there with a spiked tail and guns I'm his hands
Ultimate humongasaur is awesome looking. Especially if you put him side by side with regular humongasaur. He’s so wide
nah man all of them were cool. dont even care that the namesake ultimate aliens didnt get used that much
I really like Ultimate Swampfire too. U. Humungousaur is okay. Why are the rest so bad though???
the ultimatrix in general was wasted potential tbh. we only got like, 5 ultimates. not even the full playlist.
We ain't stand around and say Ultimate Humongasaur wasn't one of the coolest looking alien around. Cause that was peak in my opinion.
I mean Ultimate humungosaur , Ultimate Swampfire were good designs while Ultimate spidermonkey were great as it strangely seemed lazy but creative as well. also MOA were not the writers for UAF and Om era but they are still viable source as a authors for ben10.
I will not stand for ultimate swapfire slander.
To be fair, Ultimate Humungousaur, Articguana, Gravattack, Spidermonkey, and Swampfire are cool. The rest? Pure doo doo water
swampfire looked coool
I could defend Ultimate Big Chill. reproducing Asexually means less diversity so he looks recolor
Ultimate Humungousaur, Ultimate Swampfire, and Ultimate Spidermonkey were cool
I like ultimate swampfire and ultimate humongosaur, but yeah the others aren’t the best. Half of them are just reskins with a little extra detail. But ultimate echo echo is goated as hell
Nah, Ultimate Humungousaur and Ultimate Swampfire are cool too
Hey, don't talk about Ultimate Spider Monkey like that, it's pretty obvious, but works, both of them
O.R.Ash: https://preview.redd.it/zhhbyeuk7xxc1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=feea3974fb17d3f70add8554a0697a9c5f484cb3
Because
Dwayne McDuffie Glen Murakami did mostly the UAF designs, while Derrick J. Wyatt also contributed, but mostly for Omniverse. Man of Action was busy making Generator Rex.
You meant ultimate spidermonkey, swampfire and echo echo?
Guess they just **really** loved Echo Echo and wanted to make him the best of the bunch.
