Heatblast

Heatblast is the Codon Stream's DNA sample of a Pyronite. He was Ben's first ever alien transformation, which was activated in the episode, And Then There Were 10 when he accidentally started a forest fire.

Appearance
Heatblast is a magma-based lifeform whose body is composed of brown and black rocks which hold in yellow/red magma. His head is completely fiery, his eyes are connected to that flame which can be put out by a sufficient amount of water. His body is completely hot and does not allow him to be touched. His feet have slight oval like design with only two toes and one back toe. His hands and feet are completely made of magma and his Omnitrix/Ultimatrix symbol is on the center of his chest.

While under the influence of an illness his appearance is slightly paler, and his magma and flames are now blue giving him cryokinetic powers.

In Ultimate Alien, Heatblast appearance is slightly altered. His eyes are no longer connected to the fire on his head, and he seemed to have developed small noticeable horns. He skin tone is now darker than in the original series similar to Alan Albright's Pyronite form. His rock pattern over his body is different, and seems to have slightly fewer rocks revealing more of the magma inside Heatblast. His voice seems to be slightly higher as well. His Omnitrix/Ultimatrix symbol is now green and still on the center of his chest.



Abilities


Heatblast has the ability to project and control fire from his body. He can shape that fire into fireballs, fire breath, flaming discs and fire tornadoes. He can also use that fire in defensive maneuvers such as making a wall out of fire. He can propel himself like a rocket, and surf on a fire board in the air. He can absorb fire, heat and magma. He is completely immune to heat and cold.

In the game Ben 10: Protector of Earth, Heatblast can wield flaming fists, shoot a beam of fire, fire rapid sparks, throw fire crescents, create fire tornadoes, breathe fire like a dragon, ride on a fire surf board, make a large melt down, and he also jumps in the air and shoots fire meteors at his foes known in the combo name as "Armageddon".

In Viktor: The Spoils, Heatblast blasted fire that was so hot, it could melt a tank. This could've been lava.

Ben 10
When Ben first transformed into him, Ben panicked once he knew he was on fire. A moment later, Ben started using his abilities and eventually started a forest fire. On Gwen's first sight of Heatblast, she started attacking Ben with a fire extinguisher. Later, Grandpa Max, and Gwen heated marshmallows using Ben until he transformed back. In Side Effects, when Ben gets a cold, Heatblast's powers are reversed, allowing him to use cryokinetic abilities like light blue ice flames like Ultimate Big Chill but Ultimate Big Chill has regular color flames with an ice effect. His flames turn blue. It is revealed that all Pyronites have the same power when they get a cold.

Ben 10: Race Against Time
Heatblast was the first alien to be seen in the movie, similar to his first appearance in the show. Heatblast battled some of Eon's minions. Ben easily defeated all of them and escaped when the police arrived. His live-action apperance, his eye's are not connected to his head

Ben 10: Ultimate Alien
He makes his first reappearance in Viktor: The Spoils where Ben uses him to defeat King Viktor. After a big challenge, Heatblast melted the tank Viktor was about to throw turning it into molten steel. Then Gwen used her Turbo spell to freeze the lava around Viktor, turning him into a steel statue.

Possible Future
In Ben 10,000, Heatblast has two mini volcanoes on his shoulder. Also, he has become much more muscular and he can fire lava flames and beams.

Trivia

 * He is the first alien that Ben ever turned into. He is also the first fire-based alien, Swampfire following.
 * The first alien Ben turned into in Alien Force was Swampfire. The same goes for Ultimate Swampfire, who was the first ultimate alien that Ben transformed into.
 * He was Gwen 10's first transformation just like Ben's original transformation.
 * Not counting the different versions to Secret of The Omnitrix, Heatblast is the first used alien in every original series movie.
 * He, like Wildmutt, XLR8, Ripjaws and Four Arms, were Ben's favorite aliens, and they all started with a similar transformation sequence (although when Ben becomes Wildmutt, XLR8 or Fourarms, thick veins creep up his arm and to his eyes, but when he becomes Heatblast, they are replaced by red molten rocks).
 * When young Ben turned into Heatblast, his eyes weren't connected to his head In the Forge of Creation. Also, he has a green symbol when he was turned into by 10 year old Ben when in the original series it was white. Same with all the aliens that 10 year old Ben turned into. In short, he bears a closer resemblance to a teenage Heatblast.
 * On a interesting note, the version of Heatblast that appeared in Viktor:The Spoils closely resembles Alan Albright.
 * In Tourist Trap it is shown that Heatblast's tongue is made of fire.
 * Heatblast is capable of moderate scale terrakinesis, as confirmed by Dwayne McDuffie.
 * Though in the original series Ben did not use a boulder to fly, he used one in Victor: The Spoils. This is most likely a matter of Ben choosing to fly this way in order to shoot fire at Dr. Victor while flying.
 * It is shown that in the original series episode Side Effects, when Ben had a cold and he transformed into Heatblast, his powers change from fire to ice, Maybe human sicknesses change the powers/abilities and or appearance of aliens Ben can transform into or maybe the viruses were mutated along with Ben, creating a new disease.
 * He appears in the most online games (Battle Ready, Krakken Attack, Savage Pursuit, Blockade Blitz and Critical Impact).
 * When Ben turns into Heatblast, he seems to become more arrogant, since he had a lot of practice with him.
 * Heatblast's voice seems sticky and more like a younger version than of Heatblast in the form of a 10 year-old.
