This article belongs to the Classic Continuity |
Bullfrag is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of an Incursean from an unknown and destroyed planet.
Appearance
Bullfrag is a humanoid frog-like alien with three-fingered hands and two-toed feet. He is, however, considerably taller, more muscular and paler-skinned than a typical Incursean and has a more defined jawline.
In The Frogs of War: Part 2, Bullfrag wore a typical black-and-purple Incursean uniform as a disguise. He also wore an Incursean helmet and purple sunglasses.
As of Bengeance Is Mine, Bullfrag wears green sunglasses, a black bodysuit with a green stripe down the middle, fingerless black gloves, toeless black boots with green cuffs above them, and a green belt with a white buckle.
Bullfrag wears the Omnitrix symbol on his upper chest, which was hidden under his suit during The Frogs of War: Part 2.
Powers and Abilities
Bullfrag has powerful jumping abilities and is very agile.
Bullfrag's physique makes him stronger and more durable than an average Incursean. He also has impressive hand-to-hand combat abilities.[1]
Bullfrag possesses a long, sticky and prehensile tongue, which he can use as a grappling line or to hit a distant target. It is also very strong, as it can smash boxes.[2] Its tensile strength is high enough to slow down the Billions Tower sign to a near standstill after falling from the top of a skyscraper.[3]
Bullfrag can inflate his chest to repel enemies and gain momentum to jump.[4]
Bullfrag has enhanced strength, as he was able to carry Bill Gacks in the air without any difficulty.[4]
Bullfrag can endure being kicked by a Tetramand.[5]
Bullfrag is capable of withstanding the vacuum of space, but he still needs to breathe to survive. Without an oxygen-supply, Bullfrag is limited to holding his breath, as demonstrated by Attea.[6]
Although he has never trained himself to do so, Bullfrag can hold his breath underwater for four to seven hours thanks to his respirators[DJW 1] and can probably swim faster than humans.[DJW 2]
Weaknesses
Bullfrag's tongue will hurt if it stretches too long.[3]
Bullfrag has feelings for Attea, which can distract him.[1] Although he thinks she is cute, he is not into her personality.[DJW 3]
Like all Incurseans, Bullfrag is weak to a strong smell, such as that of a Methanosian's swampy stench, as demonstrated with many of Milleous' Incursean soldiers.[7]
Bullfrag can be immobilized by a Necrofriggian's ice breath, as demonstrated with Milleous.[8]
Bullfrag can be lifted up by species with as much or more strength than a Squid Monster[4], a Vaxasaurian[8] or a Tetramand.[9]
