Arburian Pelarota (Classic)

Arburian PelarotasThe Big Tick (also called Tortugans)Game Over are a species from the once peaceful planet Arburia. They have a sister species, the Vulpinic Tortugans.Back With a Vengeance
Their evolved counterparts are Evolved Arburian Pelarotas.
==Appearance==
Arburian Pelarotas are hulking, broad-shouldered aliens covered in natural, yellow exo-plates on their back, shoulders, thighs/hips, and forearms. They are mostly white with black on their upper half and have four claws on both of their hands for fingers, having a color scheme and claws similar to that of a panda. Arburian Pelarotas are covered in fur across the thickest parts of their body, while every other part except for their elbows and knees is short fur.
When Cannonbolt turns into a sphere, he rolls up into a ball, with his backplates and the plates on his arms covering him. His sphere form has semi-circular stripes across his body, with black lines around the circular plates, and his side plates are the plates on his arms.
Adults have the same appearance as children, only with sharper claws and small lines near their fingers.
Female Arburian Pelarotas appear to have a slimmer torso and pelvis, their armor is also smaller and they have feminine lips.

Arburian Pelarotas can curl into a ball, encasing themselves in his plating. In general, the Arburian Pelarota species mostly used this maneuver for defense, like an armadillo. Arburian Pelarotas are nigh-invulnerable when curled into a ball.
When rolled up, Arburian Pelarotas become like a motorized wheel that can move at great speed (because of chemicals in their exo-plates that reduce friction) and can increase their rotational momentum to slam into and/or run over their enemies. Arburian Pelarotas are able to maneuver around their surroundings in ball form thanks to the short fur on their bodies, registering shifts in air and motion around them. Between that and their excellent hearing, Arburian Pelarotas receive something akin to echolocation - giving them "eyeless" vision.
Arburian Pelarotas can ricochet and bounce off surfaces like a pinball in sphere form, suffering little-to-no loss in momentum.Arburian Pelarotas can also house people and fairly large objects within their spheroid form and provide them the same level of protection that they have.
Arburian Pelarota shells can deflect lasers and conduct electricity, such as that generated by a Gimlinopithecus.And Then There Was Ben
Arburian Pelarotas possess enhanced strength, being able to fight on par with enemies about their size.No Honor Among Bros They can also break free from traps made of Lepidopterran slime.Grudge Match Arburian Pelarotas also have enhanced reflexes, being able to quickly dodge most attacks.Vilgax Must Croak
Arburian Pelarotas possess enhanced digging, as seen when Cannonbolt quickly tunneled underground in his sphere form before jumping out to attack Future Vilgax.Ben 10,000
Arburian Pelarotas are capable of withstanding the vacuum of space, but they still need to breathe. Without an oxygen supply, Arburian Pelarotas are limited to holding their breath.For a Few Brains More
From inside their shells, Arburian Pelarotas can withstand twice the heat of reentry into the Earth's atmosphere.Be Afraid of the Dark Similarly, their shells are resistant to acids and lava, as well as cold temperatures of places such as Mikd'lty,Map of Infinity and can withstand the plasma generated by members of Ball Weevil's species.

An Arburian Pelarota's bipedal form is top-heavy, making them very unbalanced and clumsy. This is because they are made to spin, not walk.
Arburian Pelarotas cannot roll over slippery surfaces, such as a Gourmand's slime spit, as it will cause them to immediately uncurl from their sphere form and fall over.Duped
Arburian Pelarotas can be trapped by strong adhesives, such as those used by the Stalker.Video Games Similarly, they can be held in place by beings with as much strength as a Chimera Sui Generis.
An Arburian Pelarota's large body makes it hard for them to move in small spaces, such as in vehicles like the Proto-TRUK.
Arburian Pelarotas can be incapacitated by electricity when not curled into a ball, such as that generated by a Transylian.The Return Similarly, Arburian Pelarotas can be burned by extremely hot objects when not curled into a ball.The Galactic Enforcers
In their uncurled form, Arburian Pelarotas can be controlled by a Vladat via their Corrupturas.

===Ben 10: Protector of Earth===
Arburian Pelarotas are capable of rolling in a circular pattern to damage enemies, compressing themselves tightly and then releasing the pressure to create a sonic blast. Arburian Pelarotas are able to flop onto the ground to create a shockwave, as well as rotate quickly to generate a miniature tornado.
==Naming and Translations==
==Etymology==
The name Arburian Pelarota is based on Arburia (the Arburian Pelarota home planet), pelota (Spanish for "ball") and rota (a play on "rotation").
The alternate name Tortugans is based on tortuga (Spanish for "turtle"), referring to their ability to hide inside an armored shell.
==Trivia== 
*Arburian Pelarotas are believed to be extinct from the universe, but it wouldn't surprise Eugene Son if there are a few alive somewhere.
**Derrick J. Wyatt believed that there are supposedly a few survivors scattered across the galaxy.
