Abilities
- Extreme Speed- XLR8 is able to run at extremely fast speeds. The more he grows, the faster he gets. His top speeds can make him seem invisible to the human eye. He is fast enough to create vortexes and run on walls. He can dodge both lightning and laser blasts and patrol the entire planet Earth within a matter of seconds.
- Enhanced Reflexes- XLR8 can dodge and counter attacks at incredibly fast speeds. He can casually dodge and evade both lightning-bolts and laser-blasts, and come to a complete stop while running almost instantly.
- Enhanced Recovery- XLR8 recovers faster than the most aliens, recovering from negative effects such as stunning, fazing, poison, sleep, pain, flinching, being knocked down/backward losing balance, fatigue, overstretching, being knocked unconscious, etc but not lost limbs or lost of flesh.
- Accelerated Perception- XLR8 can process information at such speeds that time appears to have slow down.
Weaknesses
- Speed Prohibitors- XLR8's speed does not work an all surfaces such as ice and or strong adhesives.
- Momentum- If XLR8 goes too fast, the momentum will overcome him and cause him to be unable to turn directions as well.
- Vulnerable Tail- XLR8 can be restrained if someone or something holds his tail down.
- Poor Strength- Although XLR8 has enhanced strength, he is not as strong as Fasttrack.
