Omni-Kix XLR8 is the Omnitrix's Omni-Kix version of XLR8.
Appearance[]
Omni-Kix XLR8 is enveloped from head to toe in Omni-Kix armor. His head, back fins, arms, knees, and shins are covered in blue plating, while his arms and shins have green downward curves in them. His thighs, chest, and tail are covered in gray plating and his abdomen is covered in black and white plating. The Omnitrix symbol is on his chest connected by four gray tubes. When his armor was upgraded, his back fins turned into boosters and his arms combined to form a front wheel.[2]
Powers and Abilities[]
Omni-Kix XLR8 shares the same abilities as his default form namely his enhanced speed.
Omni-Kix XLR8 is more durable due to his Omni-Kix armor. His Omni-Kix armor gives him hypersonic speed[ms 1] Omni-Kix boots and an Omni-Kix Helmet.
His helmet has a computerized Heads-Up Display, although Ben doesn't use it as he doesn't understand its alien writing.[1]
Omni-Kix XLR8 seems to have the ability to boost his speed temporarily, coating his body in green energy, referring to it as "Hypersonic". This can also happen while he is in the air, allowing him to air dash into opponents and hit them with devastating force.[1]
Omni-Kix XLR8 has the ability to run at high speeds underground, basically tunneling through it.[1]
With his armor upgraded, he is able to move even faster.[2]
Omni-Kix XLR8 has a back booster that activates when its really needed. It can reach up to speeds past 1000 miles per hour,[2] or even have enough speed to allow the Sonitrain to restart time back to normal.[3]
Weaknesses[]
Omni-Kix XLR8 shares the same weaknesses as his default form, namely his speed not working on ice or strong adhesives, making it hard to control or slow him down.
Omni-Kix XLR8 has a limit how far or fast he can go before showing some strain and fatigue.
