Ben 10,000's daughter seems like a case of the Mandela Effect

  • For those who don't know, the Mandela Effect is a phenomenon where people recall an event/memory that never actually occurred or turned out to be false. An example of this is the children book series, The Berenstein Bears…except it's not Berenstein with an "e" near the end, as many had believed. It's actually Berenstain with an "a" near the end.

    In regards to the Ben 10 series, at least from what I've heard, many Ben 10 fans (and sure, even I) believed that Ben 10,000 had two kids, Ken Tennyson and Gwendolyn Tennyson, as confirmed through a Pop-Up Trivia from the Ken 10 episode. However, if these images from the Ben 10 Planet Wiki are accurate and cover all the pop-ups from that very episode, there is no pop-up that confirms that Ben has a daughter.

    To further add to this, Thomas Perkins tweeted back in January 2021 that as far as he knew, Ben didn't have a daughter and that Ken was an only child.

    There does seem to be one "official" source that does state that Ben has a daughter, as shown below. Granted, I say "official" with quotation marks because one, this isn't ever established in any of the shows and two, I have a feeling that this was made under the very Mandela Effect that I'm explaining here as well. Although, this does also refer to the Ultimate Alien version of Ben 10,000 and not the Original Series version.

    Due to this, I don't think that Ben 10,000 really does have a daughter and that the pop-up trivia that states this actually exists. However, if anyone does have an actual image of the Ben 10,000's daughter pop-up trivia, feel free to share it here. Granted, I would likely not buy into this anyways because I usually prefer for things to get established in-universe and not through an outside statement. In the case with the Pop-Up Trivia episodes in the Original Series, I did not like how some of the pop-ups tried to create and establish lore within the Ben 10 universe that wasn't proven in-show. Either way, feel free to provide an image that does prove that the Ben 10,000's daughter pop-up does indeed exist if anyone is able to find it.

    Note: The sources linked here and the Ben 10,000 info image can be found on the link embedded in "Gwendolyn Tennyson" and the link to the images of the Ken 10 pop-ups can be found here.

    @car54 I recently had a conversation with shadows59 about Julie and it did make me think of another direction that I want to address about her that could work well too. If I'm able to, I plan to cover and address that tomorrow.

    Ok so after like, forever I finally managed to get down to ten. I hated getting rid of some, but this is it. in order of least to favorite, ignore title. Rip Jaws Benwolf Wildvine Diamond Head XLR8 Cannonbolt Upgrade Ditto Heatblast Way Big Reasons for picking who I picked. Rip Jaws barely made it because I like how he is the only water based alien, and his look. Benwolf because he a freaking giant wolf that shoots sonar rings. Wildvine is because of all his nature and stretch abilities. Diamond Head because he looks so cool and has endless creation with his crystals. XLR8 because I love superspeed. Cannonbolt because of his funny character, and his awesome ball of death. Upgrade is cool for his technology ability, which sticks to me. Ditto is funny and I like his design, as well as his cloning abilities. Heatblast because, hence my username, I love all things heat, fire, red, orange. Finally Way big. He is my favorite because HE IS A GIANT 200 FOOT TALL GIANT COSMIC BEAM SHOOTING ALIEN OF PURE COOLNESS. sorry about that. Anyway that's my list, you guys let me know yours!

    I forgot to state this as well. For anyone that reads this, if @chronosapien234 provides information about the Ben 10 reboot, mostly in regards to any new aliens and the designs of the characters and Ben's aliens, but doesn't provide proof that adds to the credibility of that information, don't accept the information from him as truth. Accept the possibility that he is lying. In fact, ask him to provide proof that credits the information that he provides. Again, I had been waiting for months for him to provide some images of the artwork for the reboot. I even asked him over and over in the past and got nothing but mostly unjustifiable excuses from him. I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just stating what's been going on between me and him and what my best recommendation is with him. You don't have to listen to me but this is what I suggest for people on this website to do and that's my reason why.
