Diamondhead (Anime)

## Appearance

### Ben as Diamondhead

Being a silicon-based life form made of super-hard, green/blue diamond-like material, Diamondhead's body is composed of durable pale green crystals. He sports four crystal shards on his back and has a sharp head.

In *Omniverse*, Diamondhead has clothing that is all black with one large green stripe down the middle up to his belt, and wears black pants. He has a green belt with white stripes on which he wears the Omnitrix symbol. Diamondhead no longer bears the crystals on his chest, and the crystals on his back have also grown in length. His jaw is larger, he wears black shoes with green on the bottom, and there are now only two crystal shards on his back.

11-year-old Diamondhead looks almost the same as in the original series, but the left side of his suit is missing the black patch around the Omnitrix symbol and the crystals on his back, as well as his jaw, are bigger. His eyes are green and the Omnitrix is recolored.

### Gwen 10 as Diamondhead

Gwen 10's Diamondhead almost looks the same as her non-canon counterpart but is somewhat slimmer and is more bluish colored. Her eyes and original Omnitrix symbol are pink and she has a hairclip just like Gwen 10. Her outfit on the left side is different, as she now has a black patch on her left chest and a blue cat logo around her Omnitrix symbol. Similar to Gwen 10's pants, her own come halfway up her calf, and she wears black shoes.

### Mad Ben as Diamondhead

Mad Ben's Diamondhead has an almost completely black Mad Ben-style outfit with an orange belt, a small orange cross on his chest, and orange bandages on his forearms, thighs, and shins. His body is composed of pale blue crystals and like Mad Ben's Rath, he has silver spike pads with orange spikes on his knee joints, thighs, forearms, shoulders, and feet. He lacks the rear head spike that Ben Prime's Diamondhead has, but has a Mohawk consisting of three spikes instead. His Omnitrix is on his chest and colored orange, like his eyes.

## Powers and Abilities

Diamondhead's body is composed of extremely thick organic pale green crystals. He has the ability to manipulate the atomic structure of his physiology at will, allowing him to form his limbs into diamond weapons such as blades and bludgeons. Moreover, he can control all the crystals he generates, to the point that he can make them explode or lift them off the ground. He can fire crystal shards sequentially out of his hands and can explode his body parts into crystalline formations, as well as make crystal constructs grow from his body, the latter of which he used to protect Gwen from a falling tree by making large crystalline spikes quickly grow on his back and then retract again. He can also create crystals immune to sound attacks.

Diamondhead can make monstrous and large clusters of crystals, conjuring walls and forming crystal shields and ramps. He can also generate crystals from the ground at a distance, can reshape his projectiles into limited shapes, and can also form gaping hands to capture enemies. He can also create different objects out of his crystals, such as an anchor on a chain, a crystal board to ride on, as well as boomerang-like throwing weapons, as demonstrated by Tetrax.

Diamondhead is capable of encasing enemies in crystals, and can create crystals inside of objects and cause them to spike out.

Diamondhead's crystalline body resembles a living prism, allowing him to deflect and absorb most energy beams and render weapons similar to lasers useless by simply refracting. Similarly, rays generated by dimensional transporter devices will reflect off of Diamondhead's body.

Diamondhead has inhuman physical abilities, enough to easily able to overpower Vilgax in a one-on-one brawl.

Diamondhead is quite strong, being able to drag a cage with a Gracklflint, hold open Slamworm's mouth and break his own crystals. He can also dig very well into solid surfaces such as the floor of a building by turning his arms into sharp spikes to pierce the ground, seen when he dug up the Corrodium.

Due to the natural density of crystal, Diamondhead is extremely durable to most weaponry and physical impacts, as he withstood being punched from Galvan Prime all the way to Galvan B by Malgax. This incident also shows that Diamondhead can survive in the vacuum of space.

Diamondhead is resistant to fire and heat, such as that generated by a Pyronite, much like an ordinary diamond.

Because he is made out of organic crystals, Diamondhead is immune to aging. Therefore, he is impervious to time rays generated by a Chronosapien or a Chronian, as diamonds do not age. Ben learned this when being saved from Eon's time rays by Ultimate Ben using Diamondhead's powers.

Diamondhead can regenerate, but to a limited extent. He can also extend his arms, which allows him to propel himself upwards by pushing against the ground.

If under the effects of a cold virus, Diamondhead is able to sneeze out tiny sharp crystals from his mouth. It is unknown if he can do this when he is not sick, however.

## Weaknesses

Despite his enhanced durability, Diamondhead's body can crack and shatter if he's impacted with enough force.

Diamondhead is especially weak to sonic vibrations, such as a Loboan's sonic howls and an Evolved Sonorosian's Sonic Disks. Either one of these scenarios can render Diamondhead unconscious.

While Diamondhead can regenerate, there is a limit to how much damage he can recover from.

Despite being fireproof, Diamondhead still feels pain against fire attacks when he is caught off-guard. Also, Diamondhead's shard projectiles can be dissolved by an Evolved Methanosian's fire blasts.

Diamondhead's powers are ineffective against extremely tough opponents, such as the Great One.

Diamondhead can be easily blinded by a Lepidopterran's slime should it get all over his face.

Diamondhead can slip on certain surfaces, such as ice generated by a Polar Manzardill, as demonstrated by Tetrax.

The two shards on his back can also leave him stuck on a wall or on other surfaces that he gets knocked into. Gwen as Diamondhead, however, lacks this weakness.
