Teeny-Weeny is the Hero Watch's sample of a Nanomite.[DJW 1]
Powers and Abilities[]
Despite being Ben 23's smallest alien, Teeny-Weeny can still pack quite a punch. Teeny-Weeny can generate energy from his hands and release it either as a raw discharge of electricity[1][2] or concentrated, explosive orbs of energy.[3] Teeny-Weeny can also project this energy as lasers from his eyes which can destroy smaller technology, such as Aggregor's Mind Control Headbands.[4]
Much like Brainfrog, Teeny-Weeny's size allows him to squeeze into small spaces.[5][6] Teeny-Weeny can also reduce his size at will, even to microscopic scales.[1][2] He can return to his original size, but cannot grow any larger.[DJW 2]
Teeny-Weeny is capable of flying, thanks to possessing a pair of wings.[4][3]
Despite his small stature, Teeny-Weeny has enhanced strength relative to his size, as Nanomech was able to easily lift a food cover over his head.[6]
Teeny-Weeny is resistant to electricity.[1]
Teeny-Weeny is capable of adaptation, allowing him to copy certain abilities of his opponents after being hit by their attacks, as shown when Nanomech copied the Decoy Queen's tentacles.[1][note 1]
Weaknesses[]
Teeny-Weeny's minuscule size can be a problem if fighting larger opponents, as seen when Nanomech was harmed by a fly swatter.[2]
Because he is extremely light, Teeny-Weeny can easily be blown back or sucked up by strong winds.[5][4]
History[]
In It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Ben World: Part 2, Teeny-Weeny was mentioned when Ben Prime asked Ben 23 to transform him into Nanomech using the latter's Omnitrix.

Trivia[]
- Unlike Nanomech, Teeny-Weeny is a Nanomite instead of a Human/Microchip hybrid.[DJW 1]
- This seems to correlate with Derrick J. Wyatt's opinion of Nanomech being an evolved form of Microchip rather than a hybrid.[DJW 3][DJW 4]
