I'd say the best and ideal reboot for Ben 10 is to reboot the sequels. Not the Original Series because, well, it's very much, if not completely, unnecessary to reboot the Original Series. The Original Series isn't perfect but it's still a fantastically well-made show and is even still great and enjoyable to watch. Not because of nostalgia but because it's just a great show. There's noting to really improve on the Original Series and therefore, it's unnecessary to reboot the Original Series. Rebooting the Ben 10 sequels is a much better and the best and ideal approach because that's where all the major problems of the Ben 10 series stemmed in and all those problems started when Cartoon Network replaced Man of Action with Glen Murikami and Dwayne McDuffie as the writers of the first sequel. There was just so much wrong that was done after Man of Action were replaced. So many problems that were created. Therefore, it would be better to reboot the Ben 10 sequels and go down the right path that the series was supposed to go.

Anyways, it would be better to reboot the Ben 10 sequels and not the Ben 10 Original Series. Incorporate the style, elements, and art design of the Original Series. Don't make any changes to the show whatsoever. Change doesn't always lead to good results. In fact,  changes being made had more often led to bad results and caused more harm than good for a lot of series', including Ben 10. Instead make improvements to the elements of the Original Series and make them from great to even better as well as add in new elements to the show to freshen and innovate the sequel reboot. Have the reboot take place after the events of "Secret of the Omnitrix" so that we can see Ben as a kid again as well as be able to see him grow up and constantly develop and evolve while maintaining his old self too. Keep his impulsive, strong ego, and fun-loving nature while also allowing Ben to mature and improve.

This isn't just something that I want for the Ben 10 reboot. This is something that most fans want and I know this because I've spoken to more than enough fans and read more than enough fan opinios and responses to know that this current approach to the reboot is not the right approach and will more likely not deliver and succeed. It's just a lot better and the right choice to reboot the Ben 10 sequels than reboot the Original Series.
