Cool, but gross.

Gwen's opinion on Goop.[1]

Goop is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Polymorph from an unknown and destroyed planet and the planet Viscosia.[Bandai 1]

Appearance[]

Ben as Goop[]

Being a 200-pound single-celled organism[AF Mini Bible 1][DM 1][AF VG 1] that is neither liquid nor solid but a colloidal suspension,[DM 2] Goop is a green gelatinous humanoid that can take any shape at will. Goop has bright green eyes and an Anti-Gravity Projector that allows him to be mobile in Earth's gravity. His brain is spread throughout his body.[DM 3]

In Alien Force and Ultimate Alien, Goop wore the original Omnitrix/Ultimatrix symbol on his chest.

In Heroes United, the black outlines around Goop's eyes were thicker.

In Omniverse, Goop has a nose-like beak and an amoeba-like shape. His Anti-Gravity Projector has been redesigned and the Omnitrix symbol is on the top of it.

Albedo as Negative Goop[]

In Alien Force, Negative Goop looked exactly like Ben's Goop.

In Omniverse, Negative Goop looks mostly the same as Ben's Goop except his body, eyes, and the Ultimatrix on his Anti-Gravity Projector are recolored red.

Powers and Abilities[]

Goop's entire body is comprised of green cytoplasm that is very bouncy and elastic. This gives him a wide and gangly range of motion, able to stretch his limbs very far to extend his grab reach, as demonstrated by Ultimate Kevin,[2] or the reach of his punches and kicks.[3][4] It also allows him to absorb all manner of impacts, useful for blocking opponents' attacks[5] or cushioning falling people.[6][7]

Goop has the power of shapeshifting, allowing him to stretch, bend, and deform himself into any shape with ease, ranging from a pseudopod-protruding glob of goo to a stretchy, bouncing ball and everything in between.[AF Mini Bible 1][Bandai 1] He can use this to dodge attacks;[3] increase mobility;[8] wrap around enemies;[9] slip underneath doors or through small spaces;[10] and return to his normal shape if he is ever deformed or separated.[11] Using his shapeshifting, Goop can mimic the shape of simple objects well enough to fool opponents, provided they don't look too closely.[AF Mini Bible 1][AF VG 1][Bandai 2] Goop can also produce multiple prehensile pseudopods from his body to grab multiple opponents.[9]

Goop can produce additional cytoplasm to regenerate,[9] make himself bigger, or have a stronger kinetic impact.[8] He can also change its density depending on his desire,[DM 4] and the density of Goop's cytoplasm can increase to the point of breaking a metal pipe by the sheer force of its impact.[12]

Due to being made of cytoplasm, Goop can hold objects[13] or individuals inside his body to protect them.[8] He can also wrap himself around someone to bind them in place.[14][12]

Goop is capable of making himself acidic at will. His acid is able to dissolve a large variety of materials.[15][16][10][17]

Goop is able to generate and expel cytoplasm from any part of his body for use as offensive weaponry,[Bandai 1] even as spit despite having no visible mouth.[18][5] The cytoplasm he generates can either be highly acidic[19] or adhesive.[18] He can shoot it in continuous streams similar to a water hose[19] or in blob-like projectiles.[18] If he needs to, Goop is also able to neutralize his own acid.[20][5]

Goop possesses enhanced strength, as he could wrestle Magister Prior Gilhil, someone who could easily overpower an armored Osmosian.[14] He can also increase the impact power of his attacks by stretching himself backwards and using the recoil to boost his momentum.[3]

Due to his body's incredible elasticity, Goop is extremely resilient, and his brain being spread across his body makes it so that he feels no pain from most physical attacks. This allows him to survive lethal falls without a scratch[21] and be bisected numerous times.[9]

Goop's cytoplasm is hydrophobic, allowing him to survive underwater, as seen when he hid in the sewer to ambush Ben.[12] Goop can additionally survive being atomized across an entire planet's worth of water volume, such as he did with Piscciss. Moreover, he was able to generate enough additional goop to color all the planet's water green.[22]

Goop can survive in intense heat, such as the environment of his home planet Viscosia.[AF VG 1]

Goop can pass under an enemy's foot in order to make them slip.[23][9]

Goop can move his eyes all throughout his body.[DJW 1] He can also merge his eyes into one.[1]

Equipment[]

Goop's Anti-Gravity Projector allows him to be fully mobile on foreign planets like Earth by generating a corrective field of gravity around him. It also enhances his shapeshifting capabilities, such as assisting in reconstituting himself. If Goop loses his Anti-Gravity Projector, the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix can immediately generate a new one.[DM 5]

Thanks to his Anti-Gravity Projector, Goop is capable of high-speed flight and levitation, being able to easily evade Trombipulor's shots.[11]

Goop's Anti-Gravity Projector has enough strength to pull continental-like masses of cytoplasm together, such as the cytoplasm-infected waters of Piscciss.[22]

Goop can control and launch his Anti-Gravity Projector at enemies to attack them due to the edges of it being razor-sharp.[12]

Weaknesses[]

"What did you do? I can't move!"
"I know, I turned off Goop's artificial gravity"

– Vilgax (as Goop) and Ben. [24]

Goop is limited to his Anti-Gravity Projector controlling his body, making it a vulnerable target for opponents. Goop's opponents can take advantage of this weakness in various ways, such as grabbing it to forcefully pull Goop back[12] or shooting it with a Positron Blaster, which causes Goop to spin rapidly and explode into multiple parts.[3] Additionally, the Anti-Gravity Projector can also simply be switched off.[16]

If Goop's Anti-Gravity Projector is separated from him or deactivated, Goop's body collapses into a puddle,[16][3] only capable of slowly slithering around[25] until it's reactivated or he recollects it.[18][25]

Despite being able to survive being atomized, Goop will start to hurt if he is, at the very least, spun very quickly in a centrifuge and beginning to separate into his constituent compounds.[25]

Goop is vulnerable to being super heated and vaporized by an Evolved Galvan's energy beams.[26]

Goop is vulnerable to strong winds, as shown when he got sucked into Trombipulor's nose[11] or blown away by a Geochelone Aerios.[4]

Goop is vulnerable to being hypnotized.[DJW 2]

Goop can be affected by a Nemuina's sleeping dust.[DJW 3]

Goop is a playable alien in the Nintendo DS version of the game.

Goop is initially unavailable but is unlocked upon completion of the Warehouse 2-1 level.

Goop is able to stretch his limbs, deform his body in various shapes to attack and turn into a pile of slime to evade enemy attacks.

Goop is capable of throwing blobs of goo and spraying acid from his hands. He can also rotate his feet around like helicopter blades to damage enemies.

Goop is not required to be used at all in order to complete the game.

Ben 10 Alien Force: Vilgax Attacks[]

Goop is a playable alien in the game.

Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Portable Versions[]

Due to the Omnitrix rebooting after Ben's abuse of the quick-change feature during his battle with an animated Mr. Smoothy mascot, Goop was temporarily locked until Ben's arrival on Terradino.

Goop has the ability to stick to slime-covered walls and wall jump, thus reaching otherwise inaccessible areas.

Acid Hose is an unlockable combo move for Goop.

Goop is vital for progression on the Terradino, MorOtesi, and Null Void levels of the game.

Nintendo DS Version[]

Only Goop and Swampfire are available on Ben's arsenal upon his arrival on Vulpin.

Goop is able to safely walk on the acid rain puddles littering Vulpin's surface and is the only alien form capable of defeating Darkstar.

Ben 10 Alien Force: The Rise of Hex[]

Goop is a playable alien in the game.

Due to the Omnitrix shorting out after Ben fiddled with it, Goop was temporarily locked until the beginning of Level 10.

Goop is able to turn into a pile of slime to fall through specially designated holes and to slide under incredibly small openings, thereby navigating areas Ben and all of his other alien forms are unable to access.

Trivia[]

Notes[]

  1. Ben was able to easily remove the Omnitrix from Vilgax while the latter was Goop because the device wasn't bonded to him and not due to any possible inherent weakness with Goop's body composition.[DM 6]
