Pyronite

The Pyronites are humanoid magma-based aliens from the planet-like star Pyros.

Physiology
Pyronites are a humanoid species who are composed of flames and rock that flare up on their head like hair and they have redish rocks covering their bodies.

Female Pyronites are basically the same as male Pyronites, except they have more curved figures and their chests slightly jut outward.

Predator
The Pyronites' natural predators are Crabdozers.

Powers and Abilities
Pyronites are masters of fire, capable of generating flames from their bodies in many forms. The flames can be projected as weapons, breathed out of their mouths, or used to provide flight.

Pyronites are not limited to simply creating fire. Because their bodies are naturally heat convective, they are able to absorb heat, effectively allowing them to put out fires.

Since they are literally made of fire, Pyronites are fireproof, heat-resistant, and invulnerable to magma. They are also cold-resistant and ice-proof thanks to the heat they produce.

According to Dwayne McDuffie, Pyronites are capable of limited terrakinesis by channeling fire through the ground. One result of this capability is the ability to "surf" through the air on a board of rock.

Due to the alterations Kevin Levin has made to the Antitrix, Hot Shot is more powerful than ordinary Pyronites.

Weaknesses
Because of their heat and fire based nature, Pyronites do not react well to water, fire retardants, or a Crabdozer's saliva. Exposure to these substances can temporarily extinguish their flames, preventing them from using the full extent of their abilities.

A Pyronite's fire attacks are useless against a Crabdozer's fireproof skin or anything diamond-related such as Petrosapiens.

When under the effects of an Earth cold, a Pyronite's pyrokinesis is replaced with cryokinesis. Despite these new powers, the effected Pyronite works completely "nonfunctional" to their fiery nature and the cold will still prejudices their health.

Culture
Due to their homeworld being a planet-like star, Pyronites have had limited contact with other alien species. Because of this, they have spent their whole lives perfecting their pyrokinetic abilities.

Omnitrix Transformation
The Omnitrix's Pyronite representative is named Heatblast, who first appeared in the original series episode "And Then There Were 10". Heatblast has appeared in almost every series except Alien Force.

The Ben Tennyson of Dimension 23 has an equivalent of Heatblast named Charcoal Man, who was confirmed to exist in the Omniverse episode "Store 23".

The reboot version of Kevin 11 has a mutant hybrid equivalent of Heatblast named Hot Shot, who first appeared in the episode "Which Watch".

Heatblast has also been used by the Prime Timeline Kevin, the "What-If" Gwen 10, Ben 10,000, Race Against Time Ben, Ultimate Ben, and the Alpha Nanite.

Etymology
The name Pyronite comes from "pyro", relating to heat and fire.
