NRG

NRG (pronounced as "Energy") is a new alien from Ultimate Alien. NRG is a Prypiatosian-B which Ben obtained from the alien P'andor, in the episode Too Hot To Handle. He was first used in The Forge of Creation.

Appearance NRG
NRG is a humanoid alien made of pure, red, radioactive energy contained in a heavy, oven-like suit of armor that is capable of containing high levels of radiation. It is also very durable as it can be thrown, pummeled, and drilled without being damaged.

Powers and Abilities
NRG is a walking nuclear reactor. Like the other Andromeda Galaxy aliens, he has control over a basic element (in this case, Fire). The energy he radiates enables him to generate intense heat through his suit and melt through solid metal and rock by merely touching it. NRG is also capable of firing highly radioactive energy beams through the vents on his helmet which can corrode and melt metallic objects as well unleash explosive power against his enemies. Also, his suit allows him to enter hazardous areas and provides protection against fire, flame, heat and radiation (though none of those things could hurt him anyways due to him being made of energy). The only thing shown to cut the suit is Taedenite, as it is extremely durable. In his true form, he can become intangible at will and fly. His powers are far stronger and more dangerous. Also, his true form eats energy, and the more he eats, the bigger and stronger he becomes. In Cosmic Destruction, it's revealed that he can make a red laser beam from the three cutouts on his suit and this ability is demonstated by P'andor in "Ultimate Aggregor" when under mind-control from Aggregor via Animo's headbands. In Cosmic Destruction, NRG is imune to all kinds of Fire, except Fire in Enemy attacks.

Ultimate Alien
He first apeared in The Forge of Creation by accident when Ben picked Big Chill to fight 10 year old Ben as Heatblast but then they reasoned with Ben and NRG changed back. He was probably chosen because he was immune to fire attacks.

Trivia

 * He is similar to XLR8 from the original series, being a group of letters pronounced as a word.
 * NRG is the first alien from Andromeda galaxy to be shown in a game.
 * Like Ben's other Andromeda aliens, NRG possesses an elemental power. As indicated by his name, his powers are based on fire and radiation.
 * NRG is similar to the DC super-hero Captain Atom. Both have energy based powers, and both are contained in suits of armor.
 * Unlike the other aliens, NRG has no visible green eyes while in armored form, although his true form will have green eyes.
 * Ben absorbed P'andor's true form into the Ultimatrix, but when he transforms into NRG, he is in his containment suit. This can be because the Ultimatrix made a modification to the alien (like Ghostfreak's and Nanomech's modifications) so Ben wouldn't harm anyone who is near him, or maybe NRG's species usually wear the armor, but P'andor was just sealed in it because hes a criminal.
 * NRG has a Russian accent as P'andor did when Ben scanned him.
 * NRG is the only Andromeda alien not to be based on an animal. Terraspin being a tortoise, Water Hazard being an mollusk, AmpFibian being a jellyfish, and Armodrillo being an armadillo. NRG is instead based off of a nuclear reactor.
 * Prypiatosian-Bs are actually powerfully radioactive physical beings that are too hot to touch or be near. Ben’s NRG form is encased in a nearly impenetrable, metallic suit and must remain so for the safety of others. If he is ever released from it, everyone around NRG could get radiation poisoning. Even while imprisoned in this armor, NRG can fire nuclear blasts from his hands and also from the holes in his faceplate.
 * NRG has the unique ability of firing radioactive beams to corrode and melt metallic objects, as well as attacking enemies with explosive power. His superior suit also allows him to enter hazardous areas and provides protection against fire and radiation(though none of those things could hurt him anyways due to him being made of energy).
 * NRG appeared in the new Cartoon Network show MAD in the episode Ben 10 Franklin. He had Ben Franklin's hair and had 5 holes on his helmet.
 * Strangly NRG appeared in MAD before he appeared in Ben 10 Ultimate Alien.
 * The first part of his name, the prypiat part is interesting because it could tie in with the abandoned city near Chernobyl quaintly named Prypiat, and the fact that Chernobyl was a huge Nuclear Reactor that detonated in 1986.
 * For some reason, NRG retains P'andor's armor, even though other Prypiatosian B's don't have it and it is not part of their genetic sequence. Likely as part of life support like goops ufo disc to keep it from posioning those who are vunerable to its radiation.
 * 10 year old Ben thinks NRG is lame looking.
