XLR8 (pronounced "Accelerate") is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Kineceleran from the planet Kinet.
Appearance
XLR8 resembles a semi-armored Velociraptor. He has black wheels on his feet and wears a helmet with a visor, leaving the other features of his head unknown. Whenever the visor does come up, one can see that he has a blue face, green eyes, black lips, and stripes above and on the right side of his eyes. He also has two spikes on his back. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his chest. Unlike the previous series version, he only has 2 fingers on each hand.
Powers and Abilities
XLR8 can manipulate friction to reach speeds of 500 mph within two seconds.
XLR8 has very high dexterity, being able to type on keyboards or keypads at high speeds. Using this skill, he can input any code to deactivate devices.
XLR8 also seems to think, act and react at superhuman speed, as he was able to think of a million combinations in a few seconds.
Weaknesses
XLR8's speed does not always work on all surfaces, like ice or strong adhesives, which can make it hard to control or slow him down.
