Trivia
- It is the first series for Ben not to start-off with only ten aliens. Now he starts with 18 aliens now currently 27 (minus ultimate forms). But there are 40 aliens (Ultimates not included)
- On the Ultimate Alien show page on Cartoon Network Asia (http://www.cartoonnetworkasia.com/minisite/ben10_ua/index.php), when you go to Characters and click on Cannonbolt (the picture shows Ultimate Cannonbolt), the picture of him is from the original series, as you can see that the Omnitrix is on his forehead, and it is clearly the one from the original series.
- Revealed in the Symbionic Titan premiere by Dee Bradley Baker many new aliens are going to appear that he doesn't even know about.
- In Mexico, the show premiered in October 10, in a 10 hour marathon (starting at 10 AM), with the first chapter of the series airing at 8:30 PM. In T.V. ads, the "10.10.10." date was shown. (The tenth day of the tenth month of the tenth year of this millennium.) The show was dubbed as "Ben 10: Alien Supremacy" (Ben 10: Supremacía Alienigena) this is because there is no accurate translation of the word "Ultimate" in Spanish, while its predecessor had a much more literal translation. In Brazil the same thing happened.
- Cartoon Network always mistranslated "Ben 10: Ultimate Alien" as "Ben 10: Alien Force" in the 'coming up next' menu.
- Two of the episodes (The Forge of Creation and ...Nor Iron Bars a Cage) shows young Ben and Kevin. Young Gwen remains unseen.
- All of the aliens shown in the opening has moved the Ultimatrix symbol to their chest.
- An Ultimate Wildmutt toy is going to be in stores in July of 2011 in USA
- Episodes 1 through 10 were intended be season 1 and episodes 11 through 20 were to be season 2 but it was merged into one season due to Cartoon Network US' schedule but in the UK it was split.
- Dwayne McDuffie confirmed that the season 2 arc will start at episode 7.
