About This Quiz
Did you know there have been five different Ben 10 TV shows already? And four different movies? That's a lot of Ben 10. That's like Ben 90. Plus, don't forget about Ben 10,000. With all those series' and variations, Ben has graduated from just 10 aliens to all kinds of them. Some have evolved and changed from the original series into other ones, some vanished entirely, and new ones were introduced. Favorites like Humungusaur seem to have been around forever, while others like Pesky Dust have only had a brief time for audiences to get to know. However they've been introduced and handled, they've all been pretty memorable. And critically acclaimed, even. Ben 10 won three Emmy awards!
As the Cartoon network's longest-running franchise, Ben 10 has been in action since 2007, and that has spawned numerous toys and video games as well. Word is that the franchise is worth about $6 billion, which is amazing. So all of those aliens, from Ripjaws to Ghostfreak, Chromastone to Alien X, all have to be earning their keep. Think you know your way around an Ominitrix and all the DNA samples it holds inside? There's one way to find out! Take the quiz and see how many you can ID!
Four Arms has four arms, so his name is pretty easy to figure out. In his natural form, not bonded with human DNA through the Omnitrix, Four Arms looks like a weird little four-armed squirrel creature. It still wears a shirt, though.
Diamondhead isn't technically made of diamond despite his name but a kind of organic crystal. He is able to manipulate the crystal and grow new ones as weapons or for defensive capabilities. He's also from the same planet as Chromastone.
Grey Matter is an alien called a Galvan from a world called Galvan Prime. As his name suggests, his strength is his brain. He is able to build complex machines from random parts and can also tell how to use a machine or device just by looking at it.

Wildmutt was mainly used for his incredible ability to track. His sense of smell allowed him to track nearly anything. Unfortunately, since he couldn't speak, it was often pretty difficult to know what he was trying to tell anyone.
Upgrade is from the moon called Galvan B, and he's a Galvanic Mechamorph. As such, Upgrade isn't always a solid necessarily, and he can be liquid or a sort of jelly-like goo if he needs to be. He has the ability to merge with and possess any technology he comes in contact with.
Blitzwolfer is a werewolf-like alien who comes from the moon of the planet that is home to Ghostfreak. His name is a joke on CNN news anchor Wolf Blitzer that Ben came up with after seeing him on the news.

Living up to his name, Humungousaur is quite a humungous beast. He's also one of the most popular aliens on the show, and more people besides Ben have transformed into him than any other alien including Gwen, Albedo, Alpha and Azmuth.
Ben used Ghostfreak less than any of the other aliens, and it appeared in only 7 episodes. The reason for the lack of use, according to Ben, was that he actually got creeped out transforming into Ghostfreak.

Grey Arms can only exist if someone messes around with the Omnitrix, as it's not normally supposed to exist. It's a mix of Four Arms and Grey Matter in the same being and as such has one big arm on one side and three little arms on the other.
Overflow wears an exosuit that hides his true form, but he clearly has an affinity for water and uses water-based abilities to fight. The tanks on his arms can fire blasts of water, but, as you might expect, that makes him vulnerable to anything electrical.

Looking like a large, blue iguana, Arctiguana has numerous ice-based powers, including being able to produce icy pathways he can skate on, similar to what Iceman from the X-Men is able to do.
Heatblast seems to be made entirely of living magma and fire. He's resistant to all kinds of fire and even cold, but it does come with a downside. He can't put anything on his head or hold anything in his hands without destroying it.
Swampfire can create fire by igniting methane that comes from his palms. Despite the fiery look, he's actually a plant-based alien and his fire power isn't just offensive. He can use it to fly in kind of the same way Iron Man does it.

Rath is essentially a big tiger man who is prone to aggression. In fact, his aggression is arguably both his greatest strength and his greatest weakness since he seems unable to control himself sometimes.
Way Big, as you can guess from his name, is very big. His species are giants and he's kaiju-sized, meaning he's bigger than the average building. Though his size and strength are an advantage, it can also cause problems when he accidentally destroys things.
Alien X was introduced in "Alien Force" and looks like a piece of the galaxy shaped into a being. It has three personalities inside of it. One is named Serena, and she's loving; one is called Bellicus, and he's anger and the last is Ben, who sort of holds everyone together.

Ditto has a very helpful ability of being able to make an endless army of clones of himself. The downside to this is that Ditto is only about as big and strong as a human child, so he's not super powerful when it comes to fighting.
The name isn't the most clever one in the world, but XLRArmBlastDiamondHeat is an amalgam of Diamondhead, Four Arms, Heatblast and XLR8. Ben was able to create the alien hybrid while he was inside the Omnitrix to fight High Override.

Cannonbolt is a bit of a clumsy guy when he's on his feet, but he also has the ability to roll up into an armor-plated ball that can work up to an incredible speed. The downside of being an armor-plated ball is that he doesn't have much control.
