Trivia

Spitter is the only known alien seen used by Ben 10,000 that present-day Ben has never used onscreen. Furthermore, he is also the only regular alien seen in the original series that did not appear in Omniverse.
- His absence from Omniverse was probably because the crew ran out of time; they tried to include as many aliens as they could.^{[DJW 3]}
Had Spitter appeared in Omniverse, he probably would have looked pretty similar to his previous designs, but with a new costume with more green on it.^{[DJW 3]}^{[DJW 4]}
- In 2020, Omniverse art director, Derrick J. Wyatt designed a version of Spitter as a third party commission. It can be found in the gallery.
Spitter is one of the only two regular aliens in Ultimate Alien to not have the Ultimatrix symbol on their chests and have it on their stomachs instead; the only other one being Murk Upchuck.
Spitter came to be from re-purposing one of Perk Upchuck's prototype designs, similar to Arctiguana, albeit the latter's coloring was changed during re-purposing.
Spitter and Fourmungousaur are the only aliens that never actually spoke onscreen.
