Cannonbolt

Cannonbolt (a play on cannonball) is an Arburian Pelarota (based on pelota, the Spanish word for ball and rota, a play on rotation) from the planet Arburia. Arburian Pelarotas are hulking, broad-shouldered alien covered in natural armor plating that makes them virtually invulnerable when curled up and roll at high speeds. But, as they cannot slow down quickly, Arburian Pelarotas tend to suffer inertia. Another down is that Arburian Pelarotas' speed and maneuverability are limited when not curled up, owing to his bulk and high center of gravity. As revealed in "The Big Tick", Arburia was destroyed by a "The Great One" with some of the remaining Arburian Pelarotas taking refuge at Vulpin were their exposure to the planet's pollution created an ethnic variation known as the Vulpinic Torgutans ("tortuga" is the Spanish word for turtle).[1]


The first time Ben used Cannonbolt was in "The Big Tick", but it was an accidental transformation at first and later intentional transformation to stop "The Great One" for destroying Earth. Since then, Cannonbolt has been Ben's usual alien forms in the original series. In Ben 10: Alien Force, Cannonbolt was regained by Azmuth after the Master Control of Omntrix was unlocked in "War of the Worlds". He now has green eyes instead of yellow, has no longer a black stripe on his torso, with normal canine teeth, and his Omnitrix/Ultimatrix symbol moved from his forehead to his chest. In Ben 10: Omniverse, Cannonbolt is slightly broader, and is a pale grey rather than the usual white. He has regained his torso stripe, and his eyes are further away from the black lining on his head. He reappears in "The More Things Change : Part 1".
