Appearance
Ben as Gravattack
Gravattack is literally a living planet. He is a large, bulky, reddish-brown alien with rocky skin, a giant mouth and a molten lava planet core at the center of his body. His feet are tan with three toes. He has three fingers and one thumb on each hand. He wears black shorts with green stripes and a green belt with white stripes. He wears the Omnitrix symbol on his forehead.
Albedo as Negative Gravattack
Negative Gravattack is magenta and red-colored, and has red eyes. His Ultimatrix symbol is red, and is in the same location as Ben's Gravattack's Omnitrix symbol.

Bad Ben as Gravattack is violet colored, and has mint green eyes. His core and gravity powers are purple. His Omnitrix symbol is mint green, and is in the same location as Ben's Gravattack's Omnitrix symbol.
Powers and Abilities
Gravattack can control gravity to manipulate the weight and motion of objects, allowing him to suspend and levitate targets in the air, send them flying back or fourth, or slam them down to the ground with hand gestures. His control over gravity allows him to change its direction, allowing him to telekinetically send targets flying upwards or across the air as if they were falling. He can also place objects into an orbital track, causes them to fly in circles at various speeds. When using his powers, he emits an aura of hazy energy. He can even form this energy into walls, barriers and domes.
Gravattack can make matter or energy orbit around him whenever he retracts his limbs, giving himself the appearance of a planetoid sphere.
Gravattack can manipulate his own gravity in order to levitate, curling his body into a planetoid.
Gravattack possesses enhanced strength as shown when he punched a hole in the ground when trying to hit the Time Beast.
Gravattack has enhanced durability, as shown when he endured physical attacks from Fistrick's armor.
Gravattack can survive in space, as he is a living planetoid.
Weaknesses
If he takes large amounts of damage to his core, Gravattack could meltdown and explode, much like an actual planet.[1]
Gravattack's large body makes it hard to move in small spaces.[2]
Sudden changes of mass can throw off Gravattack's orbit.[3]
Gravattack can not stop someone from using energy-based attacks.[4]
