Water Hazard

Water Hazard is a red armored alien from the specie Orishan and from unknown planet in the Andromeda Galaxy. He first appeared in Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.

Water Hazard's DNA sample was scanned from Bivalvan in the episode, Fame. Ben first uses this form in the episode To Hot To Handle



Powers and Abilities
Water Hazard has an armored exoskeleton which protects his body from most types of damage, including moderate amounts of radiation. He possesses limited superhuman strength and can shoot pressurized water from openings within holes in his hands. He also appears to be at least partially amphibious. According to Dwayne McDuffie, he is also able to control and manipulate water at will and even mold it into wide variety of shapes. He can absorb moisture from the air, as seen in Hero Time through the holes in his hands, effectively pulling a reversal on his powers. He also seems to have enhanced strength, although Captain Nemesis's armor was made brittle by heat before water hazard broke it. Water hazard's species can take severe damage and not feel a thing (revealed in Ultimate Aggregor as aggregor didn't feel a thing even if a house was thrown at him.

He first apears in the episode Too Hot To Handle to pose as Bivalvan and convince P'andor to go home. Unfortunately, this attempt did not work, so he started trying to fight him which did not work either so he had to change aliens. He apeared again in Hero Time (first time he is named) where he powers down Overlord. He first got him wet then he absorbed the moisture from the air to make his suit shatter and then he was defeated.

Trivia

 * This is the first transformation in Ultimate Alien where Ben didn't obviously say the form's name, although he might have said it off-screen.
 * Each of Ben's new Andromeda alien forms control a basic element. As the name suggests, this form commands water.
 * Water Hazard is the opposite of Swampfire in many ways. Water Hazard can shoot and control water, whereas Swampfire shoots fire and controls plants. Water Hazard also has a strong and sturdy exoskeleton, while Swampfire is made of plant matter and can easily be broken, but can just as easily regenerate from such hits.
 * Water Hazard is the first of Ben's sea creature-based aliens that can actually control water(see the abilities section), for Ripjaws is sea creature-based and cannot control water, and Jetray, who is at least partly water-based, also lacks this power.
 * When Water Hazard first appeared, his voice sounded exactly like Bivalvan. However, in his second appearance, his voice is noticeably deeper.
 * Despite being first used in Too Hot To Handle, Water Hazard wasn't named until in Hero Time.
