==Appearance==

==Powers and Abilities==

SD1 (334).png|Enhanced Strength
SD1 (327).png|Octupedalism
Vicetopus can extend its tentacles and has enhanced strength. Its tentacles can squeeze hard enough to crack a Cerebrocrustacean's shell, as exhibited when it squeezed Dr. Psychobos in one of its tentacles, resulting in a loud cracking sound.
Vicetopus' rubbery skin makes it somewhat resistant to a Cerebrocustacean's electric attacks, making it difficult for them to defend themselves.
==Weaknesses==
Despite its skin being resistant, Vicetopus is not immune to electricity.

Vicetopus's name is a portmanteau of the words "vice" and "octopus".
==Trivia==
*Vicetopus being the Cerebrocrustaceans' natural predator is based on how real-life octopuses hunt crabs. Even the way Vicetopus crushed Dr. Psychobos is how octopuses eat crabs, by crushing them and eating the meat inside.Showdown: Part 1
