The Omni-Enhanced forms are malfunction hybrids^[1][2] that could be acquired using the Upgraded Omnitrix. This feature was created after Upgrade was sacrificed to upgrade the Omnitrix in Omni-Tricked: Part 4 and was fixed after the Omnitrix rebooted in Innervasion Part 5: High Override.

Concept and Activation

During Ben's transformations he will randomly be consumed by blue energy and rocks to form the enhancements.

In Innervasion Part 4: Mind Over Alien Matter revealed that when Ben used Upgrade to enhance the Omnitrix, it rebooted and destroyed Upgrade's DNA pod, with a part of it fusing with Ben's DNA in order to survive, resulting in the creation of Glitch. Glitch then had to replace the missing alien DNA pod with another alien, being Shock Rock. However, due to Shock Rock's DNA pod's abilities allowing it to absorb the excess energy from the Omnitrix, it resulted in the other aliens' DNA randomly receiving upgrades charged with Fulmini energy, resulting in the Omni-Enhanced forms. When the Omnitrix rebooted itself at the end of season 2, it purged Shock Rock's pod from the excess energy, fixing the glitch that caused the Omni-Enhancements and effectively removing them.

Trivia

• The enhancements for some of the aliens (namely Omni-Enhanced Heatblast's jetpack, Omni-Enhanced XLR8's energy wheels and Omni-Enhanced Overflow's cannons) were inspired in-universe by Fulmini weaponry.^[3][4]
• Omni-Enhanced forms are similar to Ultimate Forms, both being upgrades to the original aliens that can be undone.
• For marketing purposes, Shock Rock is considered an honorary Omni-Enhanced alien.
• The concept of glowing blue energy weapons are similar to the Omega-1 Nanite builds from Generator Rex.
