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 orbs on his feet, a black tail with five blue stripes, and bulky claws on his 3 fingers that can only open and close. He wears a black cone-like helmet with a protective visor that slides over his face. When the visor is lifted, one can see his blue face, green eyes, black lips, and stripes running under and in between his eyes; the rest of his head's features are unknown. XLR8 has five blue stripes on his tail and wears a black bodysuit and turtleneck-like shirt with a white stripe on the center.

XLR8 wears the original Omnitrix symbol on his chest.

Powers and Abilities

Using the orbs on his feet, XLR8 can reach running speeds of 500 miles per hour within two seconds. He can accelerate so quickly that time appears to completely stop to him, allowing him to change the positions of things around him mid-motion.

XLR8 is fast enough to run up walls and run on water.

XLR8 is capable of creating tornadoes by generating a centripetal vacuum either by running in a circular pattern or spinning at supersonic speeds. He can also combine this with water running to create water vortexes by running in front of or around his enemies.

Even without his orbs, XLR8 naturally has a very high dexterity, capable of thinking, acting and reacting at superhuman speed. His sharp reflexes allow him to dodge attacks with little to no effort, and change direction very easily while running.

XLR8 can deliver attacks in rapid succession, such as excessively kicking, or stabbing with his claws. The strength of his attacks also get enhanced when he applies more speed to them.

XLR8's scissor-like claws can cut through many materials with relative ease, a showcase of his natural enhanced strength.

XLR8 can recover from injuries faster than any other species.

XLR8's tail is prehensile, and can hold objects if his hands are full.

XLR8 is able to cling to surfaces, either due to his claws, his agility, or a combination of the two.

XLR8 can make opponents dizzy to the point of falling unconscious by grabbing them by their arms and spinning them around in a circle at a fast pace.

XLR8 is completely frictionless.

Weaknesses

XLR8's biggest weakness is magnets and charged pulses, as they can completely throw him off-course and cause him to lose his footing and spin out of control.

XLR8's speed does not work on all surfaces; running on ice can slow him down, whereas running on mud leaves him stuck in place.

XLR8 can also be held in place if his tail is either stepped on or held down.

Opponents with good reflexes and reaction time can counter XLR8's speed and land a blow on him.
