Spidermonkey (BotO)

## Appearance

### Ben as Spidermonkey

Spidermonkey is a small monkey-like alien with four arms, two legs, three fingers on each hand and three toes on each foot, blue fur over a dark blue center, and a tail with two stripes near the tip.

In *Omniverse*, Spidermonkey has three pairs of green eyes (making a total of six), his hair is flipped up, the two stripes on his tail have turned white, and the fur on his head is spiky with white stripes. His nose has now shifted to his forehead and its shape has changed. The Omnitrix symbol on his chest is now connected to two green sashes worn across his chest.

### Albedo as Negative Spidermonkey

Negative Spidermonkey looks mostly the same as Ben's Spidermonkey in *Omniverse*, except his fur is recoloured black, his skin is recoloured greyish, the stripes in his hair and on his tail are recoloured light grey, and his eyes, sashes, and Ultimatrix symbol are recoloured red.

## Powers and Abilities

Spidermonkey has the ability to expel webbing from his tail, which was once stated to be as strong as steel. His webbing is very sticky, meaning he can use it to trap opponents or blind them by shooting webbing in their face. Spidermonkey can also shape his webs into slings, or to swing across vast distances.

Spidermonkey is highly skilled in hand-to-hand combat.

Spidermonkey's paws can stick to and be used to scale vertical surfaces.

Spidermonkey has enhanced strength, as he was capable of using a lamp post to hit Ultimate Kevin up a few feet, carry Queen Voratia Rumbletum over his back, and carry No Watch Ben while web-slinging without any difficulty.

Spidermonkey has enhanced agility and enhanced acrobatic skills.

Spidermonkey is very durable considering his size, as shown when he was able to survive seemingly unharmed after several large pieces of concrete fell on him.

Spidermonkey's feet and tail are both prehensile. They also possess enhanced dexterity, enabling him to hold and carry multiple objects as if they are extra hands.

Spidermonkey has hearing superior to a human's; this feat was demonstrated by Simian when he heard Gwen and Kevin talking about him from several feet away.

Spidermonkey can show bipedalism for short period of time, such as when he was seen standing on two legs after hitting Ultimate Kevin.

## Weaknesses

Spidermonkey can get tangled by his own webs. Furthermore, enemies can easily use his webs to their advantage.

Spidermonkey's webs can be frozen and made brittle by the ice breath of a Polar Manzardill. They can also be dissolved by the energy generated by a Crystalsapien.

Spidermonkey's webs can be torn apart by species with as much or more strength than a Cerebrocrustacean.

Spidermonkey is vulnerable to being blown away by a Geochelone Aerio's tornadoes.

Being an Arachnichimp, Spidermonkey is vulnerable to his natural predator, the Root Shark.

Spidermonkey can be rendered unconscious if hit by a quill from a member of Argit's species, as demonstrated with Simian.
