Ultimate Swampfire is the Ultimatrix's DNA sample of an Evolved Methanosian.
Appearance
Ultimate Swampfire has the appearance of a humanoid tree instead of a walking plant like Swampfire. Ultimate Swampfire's body is dark brown in color, and now has three blue gooey shells containing an organic, blue-colored gel-like solution of napalm on each of his arms and a large one on his back. He also has a smaller pod on his front, through which his face can be seen. Ultimate Swampfire's body is composed of petrified wood.
Ultimate Swampfire wears the evolved Ultimatrix symbol on his chest.
Powers and Abilities
Ultimate Swampfire can ignite methane in his hands using his napalm to generate blue-colored flames. These flames are about three times hotter than Swampfire's, as they can melt through a brick wall[1] and dissolve a Petrosapien's shard projectiles, the latter of which was demonstrated by his sentient counterpart.[2]
Ultimate Swampfire can produce a larger and stronger blast of fire when he puts his hands together. He can also propel himself underwater and in the air, the latter further indicating that he can breathe underwater.[3]
Ultimate Swampfire is more resistant to damage than Swampfire.
Ultimate Swampfire has lethal firebombs on his arms which he can throw as weapons.
Ultimate Swampfire can shoot blue methane projectiles from his hands that can multiply into small blue gas bombs that explode on impact.[3]
Ultimate Swampfire retains Swampfire's abilities to generate seeds and vines.
Ultimate Swampfire seems to be a lot faster than he looks, as seen when he snuck up behind Eon so fast that he was unable to notice him.[4]
Weaknesses
Ultimate Swampfire is vulnerable to electricity, such as that generated by an Amperi.[1][5]
Like other organic beings, Ultimate Swampfire is vulnerable to being aged to dust by the time rays of a Chronosapien or a Chronian.[4]
Unlike Swampfire, Ultimate Swampfire cannot regenerate. However, Matt Wayne thinks otherwise, as he believes it is a trait that natural selection would favor.[MW 1]
