    Shock Rock was a major security risk because he kept sending signals to his planet.
    The reason why he did that was because of an unforeseen consequence when Glitch used his pod to repair the Omnitrix.
    When the Omnitrix got upgraded, the damage that was done was caused by an excessive energy charge, which Shock Rock's pod allowed to absorb. Shock Rock's pod was charged with the excessive energy from the entirety of the Omnitrix, meaning the Fulmini pod had the energy of the Omnitrix's alien pods too. That's why Ben's aliens had the Omni-Enhancements in season 2. And of course, since we all know the Omnitrix can leave a signal across space (as the past shows showed), Shock Rock's pod sent signals, and in return it made him more vulnerable to Override's messages and control.
    Now that the Omnitrix got rebooted, Shock Rock's DNA doesn't have the excessive charge from the Omnitrix anymore (hence why we don't see the Omni-Enhancements anymore). Shock Rock's link to Fulmas and Override is broken, Ben can use him as he wishes to (man, this kid handles being turned into a mind slave better than I can handle school. Jk of course :P)
    Shock Rock isn't a danger anymore now, Ben won't have to worry about losing a powerhouse like Gax (but he did lose a smart guy, a fresh guy and a natural guy. RIP my bois)

    so, where's glitch? is it just me, or did the writers actually forget about him?

    With glitch just vanishing, i think i've figured out how they write stuff. They make a bunch of episodes with the set of aliens given to them. they create a bunch of episodes. then they actually write a season finale where they can design a new omnitrix to sell.

    in fact, they make episodes for the new season BEFORE a season even ends. that's how we get all these leaks of future episodes. And as the toy fair comes before any marketing for the season, this shows where priorities are.

    @offbeatcat Yeah, all of that sounds about right.

    @tactical-ochoa while i don't exactly approve of it, i will admit it's not a bad marketing strategy, and does keep hiatuses fairly short...

    Which episodes? The ones we've been talking about?
    I don't really know, they're on the app, but you can easily find them online now

    Alright, but how will the episodes of season 3 be aired? Weekly?

    @offbeatcat I don't know how they're going to be aired. Normally it should be weekly. As for when, I guess they'll start airing in the US on January 12 at least according to Wikipedia. If not January 12, then maybe February 11.

    The "omni-ki" is the most shallow excuse to make more toys of all time. Really? Why does ben need armor???

    It seems at this point, the writers only care about one thing.
