XLR8 (Ken 10)

## Velocityraptor

**Velocityraptor** (alternatively named XLR8) is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Kineceleran from the planet Kinet.

## Appearance

Velocityraptor resembles a semi-armored Velociraptor. He has black orbs on his feet, a black tail with five blue stripes, and bulky claws on his 3 fingers that can only open and close.

He wears a black cone-like helmet with a protective visor that slides over his face. When the visor is lifted, one can see his blue face, green eyes, black lips, and stripes running under and in between his eyes. Velocityraptor wears a black bodysuit and turtleneck-like shirt with a white stripe on the center, whtie stripes on the arms and above the ankles.

## Powers and Abilities

Using his enhanced speed and agility, and the ability to manipulate his friction, Velocityraptor can reach running speeds of 500 miles per hour. He can accelerate so quickly that time appears to completely stop to him, allowing him to change the positions of things around him mid-motion, while only being able to be seen by a camera with a very high shutter speed. Using his incredible speed, XLR8 is fast enough to run up walls and run on water. XLR8's tremendous speed also makes him resistant to strong winds, such as the suction force of Viktor's portal.

Velocityraptor has the potential to become even faster with age, seen when Ben 10,000 as XLR8 managed to outrun Ken as Velocityraptor in a race, even when Ken had a head start. Velocityraptor was also capable of travelling globally in just a few seconds when used by Ben 10,000. This also boosts his strength, shown when his XLR8 was able to greatly damage Exo-Skull with speed-enhanced physical attacks.

Even without his incredible running speed, Velocityraptor is capable of thinking, acting, and reacting at superhuman speed. His sharp reflexes allow him to dodge attacks with little to no effort, and change direction very easily while running.

Velocityraptor can deliver attacks in rapid succession, such as excessively kicking, or stabbing with his scissor-like claws.

Velocityraptor is durable enough to withstand being thrown against a wall.

Velocityraptor is capable of jumping exceptionally high, and incredibly far when his jump height is mixed with his speed.

Velocityraptor's tail is prehensile, and can hold objects if his hands are full, as Velocityraptor held a Null Void Containment Egg with it when he was about to trap Devlin 11. This feat was first demonstrated when Kevin 11 used his tail to carefully pick up a tray of slop and shove it in Technorg's face when he wasn't looking.

Velocityraptor has a natural retractable visor hidden under his helmet. This visor helps to guard his face when running at high speeds for long periods of time.

## Weaknesses

Velocityraptor's biggest weakness is magnets and charged pulses, as they can completely throw him off-course and cause him to lose his footing and spin out of control.

Opponents with good reflexes and reaction time can counter Velocityraptor's speed and land a blow on him, such as Transylians, Tetramands, and Vulpimancers.

Velocityraptor's speed does not work on all surfaces: running on ice will make him lose his balance, causing him to slip and slide around; whereas running on sticky surfaces, such as Sploot's goo, leaves him stuck in place.

Velocityraptor can also be held in place if his tail is stepped on or held down.

Velocityraptor is vulnerable to electricity.
