History

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding information.

The Great One came to Earth in The Big Tick, planning to devour it. He was destroyed from the inside by Cannonbolt.

The Great One was responsible for the complete destruction of Arburia, home planet of the Arburian Pelarota, about a week before he tried to destroy Earth, a somewhat ironic accomplishment considering that his death was at the hands of Cannonbolt, a single Arburian Peratora.

Powers and Abilities

The Great One's absorption process poisoned and eventually made the planet he fed on implode. He also caused the landscape to mutate as an extra defense, making him very difficult to attack.

The Great One's shell was nearly impenetrable as Grandpa Max and Gwen used fallen pieces of his shell to fend off the Great One's followers' attacks (which didn't even scratch them). Also, none of Ben's aliens were able to break the shell until he finally used Cannonbolt to destroy him from the inside after he shed some of his shell.

The Great One secreted slime while shedding, which was sometimes acidic.

On top of that, the Great One was followed by a group of worshippers that wanted to make sure that he completed his task.

Trivia

• The Great One is similar to Galactus from the Marvel Universe, also well known for destroying entire planets in order to absorb their vast energy resources.
  • He seems to be a lot closer to Lavos from Chrono Trigger as he is similar in structure and has a similar technique in feeding off the planet.
