Gwen's characterization in the classic series to me has always felt a bit like Danny Fenton. She is a hero because she has to be not because she wants to be. I feel like the Lucky Girl episode should have put more of a focus on Gwen realizing that being a hero sucks. Because in later episodes in the classic series she says she wishes she went to summer school. And Gwen's arc throughout the show in my head was her coming to terms that this is her life now and that she needs to embrace that a bit more.

Makes sense, there's multiple upon multiple instances throughout alien force and ultimate alien where the highlights in gwens life are the average person activities, from camping to karate, to writing 100 wedding invites the old fashioned way taking forever. In Every instance of her being confronted with her anodite abilities, she always finds a way to problem solve without relying on them, showing her smarts instead of her physical prowess, being practical, solving a problem the NORMAL way. Hell she finally decides her schooling is more important than being a hero in omniverse, she finally puts herself first, partaking in normal activities.

I always thought Greymatter's intelligence was something similar to the other alien abilities, more of an instinctual thing. Like how Ben doesn't know how his aliens work unless he's not trying to do it too hard. Sometimes he just kind of knows what he can do when in a new alien but others he doesn't. I don't have much to really support it but the only times I remember Ben not understanding aliens is when he's actively trying to figure them out, but when like, Wildvine still shows up when Ben is actually in danger and just trying to save himself and Max, he can just kind of do it. Greymatter's knowledge seems to be in a similar vein, where if Ben tries to think about it too much he doesn't know it, but when Ben is more focused on the situation/just randomly spouting the first thing that pops into his head, the smart information just spills out. Ben has no idea how the omnitrix works, yet when he's just spouting stuff angrily he offhandedly gives an explanation for why it might be happening, but also didn't know what planet/galaxy they were from when asked a question and actively is like "Do I know that? Guess not." It's not perfect, but I think it's a sort of reasonable explanation.

I feel like it’s actually easy to justify how Grey Matter’s smart as he is. The creator of the omnitrix is of the same species, so it can be argue that he attached some of his knowledge into the form’s data, which would mean the scene where Grey Matter’s reasoning for the omnitrix’s glitch and the line “It’s not Ben talking...” can now imply it’s because it’s both Ben’s & the creator’s IQ combined into a whole new IQ and thus, a whole new person almost. The inconsistency of how the intelligence is portrayed can be excused as how the omnitrix was in its prototype form during this era. This is coming from someone who hasn’t touched the franchise for a *long* while but your comment about the second episode got me thinking.

The way the omnitrix is that aliens in the omnitrix are copies engineered to have the best traits of their respective species.

I feel like when I was younger I always subconsciously thought "WHY GWEN!? LUCKY GIRL WAS SO AWESOME AND YOU GAVE UP THOSE POWERS PLUS MORE FOR NO REASON!!" And plus in the future she does get them all anyway so she really could of kept them then that's the explanation of how she got them. But alas, Gwen was the most dump in this moment of the show imao

Gwen keeping the Charms would have also been cool because it could have been a bit of development for Max dealing with the fact that he doesn’t know how to teach her magic and having to deal with the fact that he can’t be everything she needs him to be.

I think Gwens lesson in lucky girl, isn’t about being true to herself, its more that Gwen shouldn’t need powers to earn Bens respect, she should be able to just be Gwen, and Ben should appreciate what she CAN bring to the table. And I think Ben takes that step near the end when he says she did a good job

I like to think for Grey Matter's intelligence, that the Omnitrix itself has a "knowledge pool" for things like how Ben knows the basics of the alien biology even when he first discovers it, we know it has a mind of it's own and was made by Galvans that being one gives Ben a lot more brain power to sort through it, like you said with perfect memory and undertsandig of things Ben may have only glanced before.

Ben’s no stranger to giving the Omnitrix physical abuse, his standard method of activating it is slamming his hand down on the faceplate, it’s no wonder it’d glitch out eventually. In season two he messes it up so bad various samples hybridise! He does access Master Control through persistent fiddling with it though, but clearly not understanding enough to remember how he did it after he turns it off.

Regardless of how old this was, I do wanna mention that in Ov, Azmuth stated "stop banging on my Omnitrix, the impact sets the time-out function to a random." We literally see Ben smack the Omnitrix this time, and why we still see him time-out near the end.

I think maybe Gwen destroyed the charms because something so powerful is too dangerous to exist since someone could just steal them from her and be OP. The only reason I think the same thought process isn't there for the Omnitrix is because it can't come off of Ben's wrist at this point, and if it could there would be a whole "do we destroy this thing? Is it too dangerous?" Dilemma Also hot take: Grey Matter and Brain Storm are my two favorite aliens. I just enjoy smart characters a lot

As a kid I remember thinking up how the cold could affect XLR8. My idea was that its tail would swell up a lot, making it heavier and thus slowing Ben down. Also I think it's a bit interesting that Side Effects had different examples of how much the aliens were affected. Wildmutt was rendered practically useless with its senses hampered as they were. Fourarms wasn't affected too much, aside from the smelly boils and the sneeze (does that species usually produce snot? they don't seem to have a nose). And finally Heatblast who got his powers reversed.

Honestly, magic being introduced was a neat shakeup.. They didn't use it often, but it implied an entire new level to the setting, with all that came before falling under sci fi, while the addition of fantasy as an unusual change. In addition to giving Gwen her own unique strengths on the team of course. Then came the Annodite retcon and Kevin being inexplicably out of the Null Void. So I left the show.

Grey Matter’s intelligence probably comes from the owner of the DNA sample. Since all aliens in the omnitrix are at their peak, i’d like to imagine the DNA is from Azmuth, then it’s brought down to the age of the user. So I think Grey Matter is basically a 10 year old Azmuth.

Your critiques on the episode is really good! It’s not vague or suggestive like a lot of reviews I watch on KZitem. It’s more specific, exemplified by how you highlight the use of the sound effects that was used for Heatblast (which you showed was also used in Race Against Time) and also gave attention to the use of lighting with Ben’s Omnitrix and the shadows that occurred. This is great critiquing, especially when you make it sound like you actually worked on the show (which I would sincerely believe if that was the case) and I am sincerely appreciative of critiques like this, so thank you!

"Side effects" is a rather special episode for me specifically. I remember, when I was a wee lil' shit, I was obsessed with Ben 10, I got a little monthly gazzette that had this episode inside. As in, it had a comic book adaptation using screenshots of the show, with story written out, and a bunch of little games everywhere, trivia about the characters... this piece of paper, maybe 12 pages long, has served as my source of fun for months, I read it and played with it over and over again.

Pretty sure with grey matter, he gets the intelligence and knowledge of the galvans but he keeps the personality and wisdom of Ben. The decisions he makes are ben’s decisions but the information he can gather and access is that of a more intelligent species capable of understanding things more quickly and intricately. To use the roomba/cat thing, grey matter would’ve been easily capable of rebuilding the roombas into some sort of high tech saddle for the cat it’s just that Ben didn’t realize that was an option
