Swampfire is a Methanosian from the planet Methanos (referring to methane). Swampfire is a plant-like alien with a flame-patterned head. He is a combination of the Florauna and Pyronite forms from the original series. He has superhuman strength, vast regenerative powers, the ability to control plantlife through a type of gas, and the ability to shoot fire from his palms thanks to methane naturally produced within his own body. His regenerative ability also allows him to alter his own body, such as tunneling underground in vine form or growing his feet to root himself into the ground. Swampfire is Ben's first transformation when the Omnitrix is recalibrated in "Ben 10 Returns".
