I think the 'difference usefulness' should be highlighted. This is that all of Ben's aliens, even those with similar powers/concepts, are useful, and better suited for different situations. Like Eatle's eating ability and energy attacks aren't as powerful as Upchuck, but Eatle is more physically offensive and defensive than Upchuck. So Eatle, would be better suited for getting rid of materials while having to fight a powerhouse of an enemy. Or like how Kickin Hawk is better for precision, hand-to-hand combat, while Four Arms is better for brutal close quaters fighting.

This would apply to show the differences and usefulness of Wildmutt and Blitzwolfer. Of Blitzwolfer and Echo Echo. Of Echo Echo, Ditto, and Buzzshock. Of Buzzshock, Shocksquatch, Frankenstrike, and Amphibian. Of Amphibian, Ghostfreak, and Big Chill. Of Big Chill and Articguiana. How ChamAlien is still useful. The difference and usefulness between Brainstorm, Grey Matter, Jury Rigg, and Upgrade. Armodrillo and Mole-Stache. XLR8 and Fasttrack. Heatblast, NRG, and Swampfire. Swampfire and Wildvine.

So a somewhat constant formula of the series could be that Ben fights an enemy, say transforming into Shocksquatch, Armodrillo, Echo Echo, and Fasttrack, but ends up defeated. Later, when fighting the enemy again, uses Frankenstrike, Mole-Stache, Ditto, and XLR8, and wins.
