Clockwork

Clockwork is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a ChronosapienRook BlonkoA Jolt From the Past from an unknown planet.
==Appearance==
Clockwork is a robot-like alien with skin that is made of golden metal, with black stripes and a key on top of his head. His face has a blank expression, and he has a transparent piece of green glass-like material on his chest, revealing the gears inside of him.
In Omniverse, 16-year-old Clockwork has a larger body and holes on the key on his somewhat restructured head. There is a black stripe on his back that splits into two stripes with a keyhole between them.
11-year-old Clockwork has a thinner and rounder head, a white and black shirt, a smiley face, and a circular piece of glass-like material similar to his original appearance.
Clockwork wears the Ultimatrix/Omnitrix/original Omnitrix symbol on his chest.

Clockwork possesses chronokinesis, which gives him control over time itself; Clockwork can fire green time rays from his hands or chest, which have various effects like sending people back in time,Ben 10,000 Returns aging an object/person to dust, reversing the effects of a Chronosapien Time Bomb, sending people into a different timeline, and reverting them to a previous state while also immobilizing them.It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Ben World: Part 1
Although he has never trained himself to do so, Clockwork possesses chronoportation that he can use to travel through time.Ultimate Alien Ben 10,000
Clockwork possesses chronopathy, which grants him a fine-tuned sense of precise time and determines the exact time an event has taken or will take place and for how long, as demonstrated by Maltruant.
Clockwork can sense the use of a fellow Chronosapien's powers and undo the resulting effects if needed.
Clockwork can slow down time around himself, making it look like to others that Clockwork is moving at very high speeds.Bengeance is Mine
By rotating the key on his head, Clockwork can create hologram-like projections of what happened in the past.The Eggman ComethThe Beginning of the End
Clockwork has a degree of enhanced strength, as he was able to throw a pipe so hard it became heavily embedded into a wall. Clockwork also possesses enhanced durability, shown when Looma viciously threw him at a wall.Many Happy Returns
Because he is robotic in nature, Clockwork can survive in the vacuum of space, as demonstrated by Maltruant.The End of an Era
Although never did it on screen, Clockwork would be able to breathe underwater as already demonstrated by Maltruant.
With enough power and skill, Clockwork can perform a temporal consciousness inversion in which a person's consciousness is swapped with that of a younger or older version of the target in question, much like what Eon did to Ben Prime's 16 and 11-year-old selves.Ben Again
Clockwork can rotate his head 360° degrees.
Because he is a technological being, it is possible for a Galvanic Mechamorph to merge with Clockwork, thus granting him the ability to detect Chronosapiens; making his time rays stronger; create additional constructs like rocket launchers; increasing his strength, durability, speed, and stamina to superhuman levels; and morphing his hands into drills.
==Weaknesses==
Clockwork's time powers are completely useless in a place where there is no time at all, such as before the birth of a universe, as demonstrated with Maltruant.A New Dawn
Clockwork can be temporarily disabled if he is exposed to a large electromagnetic pulse, such as that from a solar pulse.Ben 10,000
Clockwork's aging time rays are ineffective against anything diamond-related such as Petrosapiens, since they take millions or even billions of years to age.Ultimate Ben
The use of Clockwork's time powers creates a ripple effect in time that can be sensed or reversed by another Chronosapien.
Clockwork's bulky body makes him relatively slower than other opponents and makes him an easy target for enemy attacks, as he admits that he "is not good for dodging". Similarly, because of his large body and short legs, Clockwork cannot run very fast and is low on stamina, meaning he tires out quickly.
Unlike Maltruant, Clockwork is unable to travel through dimensions, even when he's upgraded by a Galvanic Mechamorph.It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Ben World: Part 2
Because he is a mechanical-based being, Clockwork can be magnetized by a Biotsavartian.
Clockwork can be affected by a Nemuina's sleeping dust.
Clockwork is vulnerable to having his body dismantled by a Planchaküle. Despite that, he can still function if he loses some of his parts.

==Naming and Translations==
==Etymology==
The term "clockwork" refers to a mechanism with a spring and toothed gearwheels, used to drive a mechanical clock and other types of devices; this refers to Clockwork being a mechanical alien with gears and time-based powers.
==Trivia==
 
*Clockwork's appearance when he is fused with Techno-Bubble bears a strong resemblance to the Haywire Clockwork action figure, which has Eatle's Ultimate Alien color scheme.
*Clockwork makes gear sounds when he moves, which is similar to Armodrillo when he moves his arms.
**In Omniverse, Clockwork ticks like a clock for the entirety of his transformation sequence, and there is a sound similar to the tolling of Big Ben that sometimes appears at the end.
**The tolling clock sound also occurs when Clockwork's time rays strike their target or when he is struck on his head key.
*Clockwork speaks with a thick German accent because Germany is known for inventing the watch, a portable timepiece that could tell time no matter wherever someone was in the world. Whenever Clockwork speaks in Omniverse, the reverb in his voice would make a cuckoo clock sound.
*11-year-old Clockwork was designed by Steven Choi.
**Clockwork is the only alien used by 11-year-old Ben whose Omnitrix symbol has a gold rim, rather than a silver one like his other aliens.
*Unlike Buzzshock, Spitter, and Arctiguana, Clockwork was first revealed by a different Ben 10,000 from the one featured in the Original Series.
**Regardless, the latter three of these aliens would later be unlocked by present-day Ben.
**Of these, Clockwork was the only one who was used by present-day Ben in the same series he was initially revealed in.
*Derrick J. Wyatt thought that 11-year-old Ben kept Clockwork after the events of Ben Again, but Matt Youngberg always said he did not.
**Concept art of 12-year old Kevin's mutated form featured Clockwork's key on the sides of his head. However, this was removed in the final version.
*There were no plans to feature Clockwork in the reboot, a fact that upsets Duncan Rouleau.
