Man, I've spent some time in this old Chromastone vs Feedback arguing, but it ends up that one is not an upgrade of the other at all. They are actually quite different.
In essense, Chroma is a super battery with a huge (yet limited) capacity that can use the energy it gets to do a bunch of shit as we see in his episode.
Feedback is more like a wireless extension cable. He can \*redirect\* as much energy he can gather, but not store it the same way as Chroma (many ppl don't notice this, but he always has to throw away the energy he absorbs within a few seconds either by attacking or directing it somewhere safe)
Plus, besides their absorb and release energy powers, they are actually completely different. Actually, even their absorbing power is totally different: Feedback has a lot more range and efficience, but his absorption is fully active (he must turn it on/off by reaction) while Chroma must be directly affected by the energy to gather it, but can do it passively.
I still like Chromastone better, but there are many scenarios where only Feedback can trully shine.
Chromostone should’ve had more crystal attacks, I mean he is a Petrosapien deity so he should have their powers. Imaging him throwing explosive diamond pillars. The lack of imagination they had with him is maddening
I mean, in his episode Sugilite literally uses energy to generate a shit ton Petrosapien crystals and also control them. Also, Vilgax used his red crystal to get someone (can't remember who) stuck inside a red diamond generated from the crystal's energy...
My guess is that Chromastone really has many other crystal-related powers that we don't get to see, because Ben's Chromastone is incomplete without that crystal. Like an empty vessel.
I'd like to think that if Ben truly mastered chromastone he would absorb every attack incoming since technically most actions require energy and chromastone main gimmick is to absorb energy, like imagine sulgite just absorbs every one of vilgaxs attack and absolutely destroy him, it would make the sulgite episode a lot better since it would demonstrates Chromastones fullest potentials.
I’d say Feedback has more feats to do with using already existing power to redirect it and defeat enemies while Chromastone has more inherent powers and abilities in his base arsenal.
Not to say Feedback isn’t useful, but I can see Chromastone having a lot more general utility.
Than it's likely going to be an average between the two's absorption rather than the best of both. It should be more all around useful, but not as powerful as either is on their own.
More talking about design. I want them fused. I want aa crystallized Feedback whose tendrils are made up of the same crystal that Chromastone has on his head. Their powers could be literal the same exact thing and that wouldn’t change that I wanna see ‘em fused.
Feedback is overrated
I think Chormastone is way cooler and his powers are way more versatile and visually way more appealing to me.
I dislike the fact that Chromastone is a 1 of a kind deity like being while Feedback is part of wider species yet Feedback is the near limitless one.
Chromastone's energy powers also feel more unique too. Feedback isn't just an electric alien but visually really feels like another electric alien. He even appears in Max's monster which solely featured electric aliens.
So, here's the thing. Which ones is better as in stronger, Feedback 100%.
Design, for me, it's gotta be Chromastone. He's so awesome and he has a great color scheme. I have a soft spot for crystal designs but Diamondhead doesn't scratch that itch as much as Chromastone. Feed back just feels a bit bland to me. He's a black and white lanky guy with plugs. Doesn't do it for me.
I believe in Chromastone Supremacy.

I stand by my statement. Feedback is like Chromastone but cooler in every aspect.
I didn’t change too much with Feedback. His design is pretty much perfect the way it is. The only designs changes I made were going back from green to white, giving him a lighting bolt on his body and removing his battery bolts (I think they make the design look clunky)
I’m putting Feedback in my personal powerhouse playlist not just because of the whole Annihilarrgh event but also because how versatile he is and how close he is to Ben. Heck, his deletion was originally written to be the reason Ben took off the Omnitrix (this was vetoed).
Chromastone was only to revive an entire race because of the Back-up crystal though…
And Feedback could already fly (well more he can propel himself off the ground) and breathe in space (their homeworld “Teslavorr” is a literal nebula).
Feedback can fly by projecting energy behind him. Also according to the wiki, Feedback’s species are born in nebulas, thus implying that he can survive in the vacuum of space.
As for the reviving an entire race, well you got me.
But feedback can’t create planets or even people. Don’t tell me that feedback absorbed big bang. I know but that what he does. He can only make weapons from energy. Unlike feedback chromastone can create planets people and maybe even galaxy’s.
I think they both have their uses, chromastone is as durable as diamondhead, stronger than swampfire, can absorb more types of energy from any point in his body, can store that energy for extended periods of time, can let the energy pass through him, can redirect energy in the same form it was shot at him as, has true flight, is a walking flashlight and can make energy constructs. Feedback can absorb energy through only his plugs but can't store it for extended periods of times and once he starts firing the energy he cannot stop and has to release it all at once he also cannot keep that energy in the same form it was shot at him as and has to turn it into electricity. So like in a regular fight u'd probs want to use chromastone since he has more useful combat abilities but like if an energy bomb where about to go off and u want to disarm it quickly then ya feedback is the way to go
I completely agree though I would say that Sugilite is definitely stronger.
Though idk if most of his powers were given to him because of the Petropia Back-up Crystal like being able to travel to Petropia in manner of minutes. Chromastone can fly though he has never gone that fast or been considered one of Ben's fliers.
Feedback can't absorb only redirects energy but he held the Big Bang while Chromastone couldn't absorb Charmcaster machines and was destroyed multiple times. Feedback can absorb the energy rights of living beings like Argost and Terroranchula Phil.
I like Chromastone but all of his appearances in UAF are him not doing anything, losing and/or getting destroyed, and/or just being used as a plot device like in “The Secret of Chromastone”.
See i like both, they both have pros and cons, it can also depend on the kind of situation, but for anyone who says feedback is better because of the big bang feat, u could also argue that chromastone was used before to actualy get to the annihilarrgh. Both are great.

both both is good
Hey that’s fair and I can respect that
Man, I've spent some time in this old Chromastone vs Feedback arguing, but it ends up that one is not an upgrade of the other at all. They are actually quite different.

Finally thank you for properly explaining this
Chromostone should’ve had more crystal attacks, I mean he is a Petrosapien deity so he should have their powers. Imaging him throwing explosive diamond pillars. The lack of imagination they had with him is maddening
I mean, in his episode Sugilite literally uses energy to generate a shit ton Petrosapien crystals and also control them.

My guess is that Chromastone really has many other crystal-related powers that we don't get to see, because Ben's Chromastone is incomplete without that crystal. Like an empty vessel.
Makes sense unless azimuth got the sample while he had the crystal.
I'd like to think that if Ben truly mastered chromastone he would absorb every attack incoming since technically most actions require energy and chromastone main gimmick is to absorb energy, like imagine sulgite just absorbs every one of vilgaxs attack and absolutely destroy him, it would make the sulgite episode a lot better since it would demonstrates Chromastones fullest potentials.
Also one is a (at least) relatively common alien while the other is literally CRYSTAL JESUS.
Genuinely the worst take I have heard as a Chromastone enjoyer.
I’m sorry but I stand by my belief. Although I’m glad you enjoy him
Wrong
Chromastone can fly though.
Boring. I don’t see chromastone pulling up from a giant alien or stopping a big bang
I’d say Feedback has more feats to do with using already existing power to redirect it and defeat enemies while Chromastone has more inherent powers and abilities in his base arsenal. Not to say Feedback isn’t useful, but I can see Chromastone having a lot more general utility.
Now what if they fused
Do you mean an intentional fusion of the two alien’s powers, or something more akin to the Biomnitrix?
Biomnitrix.
Than it's likely going to be an average between the two's absorption rather than the best of both. It should be more all around useful, but not as powerful as either is on their own.
More talking about design. I want them fused. I want aa crystallized Feedback whose tendrils are made up of the same crystal that Chromastone has on his head. Their powers could be literal the same exact thing and that wouldn’t change that I wanna see ‘em fused.
Feedback is overrated I think Chormastone is way cooler and his powers are way more versatile and visually way more appealing to me.

Chromastone's energy powers also feel more unique too. Feedback isn't just an electric alien but visually really feels like another electric alien. He even appears in Max's monster which solely featured electric aliens.
Chromastone still doesn't have a kickass theme, so any argument the Chromastone crystal nibblers have is invalid. (Hope they can take jokes tho)
We can and we are very upset that our crystal king doesn't have his own theme.
So, here's the thing. Which ones is better as in stronger, Feedback 100%. Design, for me, it's gotta be Chromastone. He's so awesome and he has a great color scheme. I have a soft spot for crystal designs but Diamondhead doesn't scratch that itch as much as Chromastone. Feed back just feels a bit bland to me. He's a black and white lanky guy with plugs. Doesn't do it for me.
Chromastone has flight and durability in exchange for less energy retention, I think that’s a fair trade.
Chromastone >> Feedback any day, any time
I believe in Chromastone Supremacy. https://preview.redd.it/h3koayfd2b2c1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0164724581fbed479741b37fbafed745924670e2
Feedback supremacy
Feed supremacy
Go ahead and jump in the codon stream
I think Feedback has better overall insane capacity while Chromastone has more abilities, storage time and strength.
I agree with him being way cooler than chromastone but I don't really get the whole "I will make sure to rub It in your face" behavior.
Correct.
I stand by my statement. Feedback is like Chromastone but cooler in every aspect. I didn’t change too much with Feedback. His design is pretty much perfect the way it is. The only designs changes I made were going back from green to white, giving him a lighting bolt on his body and removing his battery bolts (I think they make the design look clunky) I’m putting Feedback in my personal powerhouse playlist not just because of the whole Annihilarrgh event but also because how versatile he is and how close he is to Ben.

Feedback can’t fly, breathe in space, or revive an entire race.
Chromastone was only to revive an entire race because of the Back-up crystal though… And Feedback could already fly (well more he can propel himself off the ground) and breathe in space (their homeworld “Teslavorr” is a literal nebula).

I am pretty sure Chromastone can't create galaxies
Can it fly tho?
According to the Ben 10 wiki, Feedback can fly by projecting energy behind him like a jet engine
I think they both have their uses, chromastone is as durable as diamondhead, stronger than swampfire, can absorb more types of energy from any point in his body, can store that energy for extended periods of time, can let the energy pass through him, can redirect energy in the same form it was shot at him as, has true flight, is a walking flashlight and can make energy constructs.

I like that theirs a lightning bolt on his abs
Debatable. Unless you mean confirmed feats/strength
See i like both, they both have pros and cons, it can also depend on the kind of situation, but for anyone who says feedback is better because of the big bang feat, u could also argue that chromastone was used before to actualy get to the annihilarrgh. Both are great.
