Detrovites are a species from the planet Vulcan.[1]
Biology[]
Anatomy[]
Detrovites are large muscular humanoids with orange skin, yellow eyes, teeth merged with their lips and two horns on their jaw.
Powers and abilities[]
Detrovites have enhanced strength, allowing them to fight on-par with Tetramands, Piscciss Volanns, and Vaxasaurians at their base size.
Detrovites are extremely durable, as they are completely unfazed by a Pyronite's fire blasts and a Petrosapien's diamond shard projectiles.
Detrovites are a weather-resistant species, as Vulcan is 850 degrees "on a cold day". Despite that, Vulkanus is able to survive in the temperatures found on Earth.
Detrovites can breathe underwater and survive in the vacuum of space.
Weaknesses[]
Powerful explosions can reduce a Detrovite to only their heads.
Detrovites can be immobilized by ice, such as an Evolved Necrofriggian's ice flames.
Culture and society[]
Technology[]
According to Kai Green, ancient Detrovites used energy manipulation tools to break down their food. Some of those implements are older than Earth's solar system.
Detrovites can create a great navigational system, one of which existing within the Proto-TRUK.

Notes[]
- The name Detrovite was first used on-screen by Synaptak in the Ben 10 episode "The Galactic Enforcers".
- Whenever his full body is seen on-screen, Vulkanus does not look like a normal Detrovite because he is regenerating after an explosion. Therefore, his body is at a size much smaller than normal Detrovites.[2]
- It is implied that the Omnitrix contains Detrovite DNA.
- The Detrovites' home planet was first mentioned in the Alien Force episode "Inferno", which aired on September 18, 2009, without being named. The name Vulcan was first added to the Ben 10 Wiki to on several pages between January 10, 2010 and January 18, 2011 by multiple users including, by users Dee Jetray, Linkmadara, and Ckbassist. No source for the name was provided in any of these instances.
- Vulcan was later listed as the Detrovites' home planet on the alien gallery bio for Vulkanus included in the Ultimate Alien DVD "The Wild Truth", which was released in 2012. But because the name was never said in the show and the crew has yet to acknowledged it, it is dubious whether Vulcan is indeed the name for the Detrovites' home planet.
