Upchuck

Upchuck is the Codon Stream's DNA sample of a Gourmand from the planet Peptos XI.

Appearance
Upchuck has green skin, six sprout-like growths on the back of his head, dark-green patch of skin on his head, light-green skin on his face, neck and belly and crooked teeth. He also has a light-green tail.

In the original series, Upchuck wears a black open-front suit with white over-sleeves and white bands around his legs and white padding under his three-toed feet and wears the Omnitrix symbol on his left hand.

In Alien Force and on, Upchuck just wears the Omnitrix and Ultimatrix symbol on his stomach.

In Heroes United, Upchuck's black lines on his face are longer, reaching his mouth.

Powers and Abilities
Upchuck has a very strong, adhesive tongue that can stretch to great lengths, allowing Upchuck to latch onto large objects and reel them in with relative ease. Upchuck's mouth and stomach can also stretch, allowing him to swallow and digest objects fairly larger than himself. Upchuck possesses several acid-filled stomachs that dissolve almost all forms of matter. In Ben 4 Good Buddy it's revealed that he can't consume ordinary earth foods. The items ingested are converted into explosive balls of liquids that can be expelled with great accuracy. He can also make them curve, like a boomerang, shuriken or frisbee. He can also use the energy as an acid. Upchuck seems to be able to take a surprising amount of punishment for a creature of its size, taking the force of a moving car impact as well as surviving after being thrown through a wall. In Duped, it is shown that he can spit out slime.

In the season 4 finale episode, Upchuck was able to grab the sub-energy from Driscoll. The sub-energy gave Upchuck super speed. Afterward Upchuck dispersed it by firing the rest of the sub-energy into the sky from Mt. Rushmore, vaporizing the three faces (the fourth one was destroyed in an earlier battle with Vilgax).

Weaknesses
Upchuck has a limit to how many big objects it can swallow at once. He is also slow when he eats a lot of things and becomes excessively fat. Otherwise, he is somewhat quick, considering his small size, but due to his body structure his speed is limited.
