– Sir Driscoll to Team Tennyson.[1] | ||
The Negative 10 was a mercenary team of antagonists who attacked Max, Gwen, Ben and Cooper.
History
Background
After Driscoll was dismissed by the Plumbers because he stole technology from alien perps and used it for his own benefit, he became the Forever King. He then created a splinter group of Forever Knights who wanted to take down the Plumbers out of vengeance.
Ben 10
Driscoll would later create the Negative 10, a group of villains who had crossed paths with Ben. However, it was revealed that Driscoll really wanted the Sub-Energy, a powerful source to power up his suit, and take over the entire world.
In Ben 10 vs. Negative 10: Part 1, the Negative 10 tricked Team Tennyson into meeting them at Mt. Rushmore, where Driscoll revealed the name of the team.
In Ben 10 vs. Negative 10: Part 2, Driscoll then let his allies initiate the attack against Ben, but they were thwarted until Cooper was commanded to attack the Tennysons. The Negative 10 were tricked by Ben and Gwen into fighting over who is the best, and then placed into a force field (excluding Driscoll). The team eventually disbanded, as Driscoll escaped after being defeated by Upchuck, and the others going their separate ways.

Trivia
- The Ultimate Alien crew toyed with bringing the Negative 10 back, but they were too expensive.[DM 1]
- Had Omniverse continued past Season 8, the Negative 10 would have been re-introduced into the franchise,[DJW 1][DJW 2] though they would have been mostly different from the original team, consisting of 10 evil versions of the Omnitrix aliens.[DJW 3]
- The only member of this Negative 10 that Derrick J. Wyatt had an idea for was a Galvan [DJW 4] colored like a poisonous frog[DJW 5] who was not the leader.[DJW 6]
- While it is largely unknown what the other nine members look like,[DJW 7] Derrick wanted to include Suemungousaur in the roster.[DJW 8]
- The Negative 10 are similar to the Spider-Man villain team the Sinister Six. Like the Sinister Six being a group of Spider-Man villains desiring revenge against the wall-crawler, the Negative 10 is a villain team composed of villains Ben has fought that has been brought together so they could have a chance to defeat him.
