Bashmouth is the AntiTrix's DNA sample of an mutant unknown species from an unknown planet.

Appearance

Bashmouth's appearance is based on a husky.[DR 1] He has blue-ish grey and cream colored fur, with three sharp claws on each hand and foot. The inside of his mouth is red. He wears a dark orange and red armored vest, black pants, black gauntlets, and a iron shoulder pad on his right shoulder.

Bashmouth has the AntiTrix symbol in the center of his vest.

Powers and Abilities

Bashmouth's signature ability is his ability to generate metal from various parts of his body.

One known example of this is generating scaled armor plates from his forearms that are dense enough to harm Four Arms.[1]

Another way Bashmouth generates metal is though his sharp teeth, which can crunch through concrete. The metal teeth retract over his normal teeth. Even when not using his metal generation, Bashmouth's bare teeth are strong enough to cause Humungousaur discomfort by biting his tail.[2]

Bashmouth is strong and agile enough to easily handle Four Arms and Humungousaur in direct hand-to-hand combat. He can also demolish a building just by roaring.[1]

Weaknesses

Bashmouth is similar to Rath, in the sense that his instincts can take over. The carnivorous aspect of his husky physiology means if he notices anything about meat, he'll divert his attention to its consumption rather than a fight.[1]

Due to Kevin's alterations to the AntiTrix, Bashmouth is too powerful for the inexperienced Kevin to currently utilize to the fullest.
