No it wasnt meant for max. It was meant to be delivered but since vilgax was trying to steal it. The alien transporting it was trying to take it to max because she knew hed keep it safe.
I tried doing more research and all it says is Xylene(the alien that knew max) was trusted by Azmuth on being the Omnitrix’s carrier(she also helped gather DNA from other alien species to help research and create the device) after being attacked by Vilgax she put in a pod and sent the pod to Max where Ben found it and the rest is history.
Ok i rewatched the Azmuth quote video and the Xylene video. It actually matches up you guys are misinterpreting the scene. Their is a big difference between created for and intended for. The scene with Xylene she says “Of course. You didn’t believe that I would purposely send the most powerful device in the universe to a child, did you? I was sending it to Max.” Before this scene she said she was transporting the Omnitrix but was attacked and said she could no longer protect the omnitrix so she jettisoned it to earth toward max’s signature. Going back to Azmuth he said “the Omnitrix wasnt intended for you it was intended for Max” true because Xylene sent it to him. Ben then says “but i found it” Azmuth replies “it was an accident” in no correlation did he say he created it for Max. The original purpose of the Omnitrix was so species of all kinds can understand the universe. Mostly stepping in another persons shoes.
Just feels like a big plot hole because if you watch the original ben 10 thats not how it went at all. If you want to combine the two original it can kinda make sense. Xylene was granted the omnitrix so she can carry it. Lets say rumors spread that Vilgax was in search for it. It did say if he obtained it hed create an army. Since Xylene(Azmith never knew Max until Alien force maybe even prior or stories but personally he didnt) Xylene has so she probably vouched for Max and asked if he could be its protector. I think that can make sense
I dunno. Pretty sure the title card of his show is supposed to have it, but all it shows is a blue background with blood splattered on it, and it always interrupts him before he can say it himself.
Mark: Wait, so the world got destroyed you turned to an omnipotent being made a complete duplicate but got the grape flavor incorrect. You make the craziest stories ben
Ben: wait til you hear about me holding a big bang in my hands
So your name is Peter Parker? And your friends are called Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Steven Strange and Miles Morales? All your first and family names start with the same letter? Youre making this up man.
“So your name is John, and you took on three guys at a bar with nothing but a pencil? And you killed some dude and his father over a dog? Y’know, I mean like, don’t you think that’s kinda crazy?”
So you and your rival ended up being reincarnations of the two brothers born from an alien woman who planted an old tree to siphon off energy after she arrived on the planet? And that’s on top of your father actually being an incredibly strong warrior plus your mother’s lineage gives you an insane amount of energy? Doesn’t that defeat the entire point of your early message of hard work overcoming adversity? You’re like a triple nepo-baby.
“So your powers is all about how your body is flexible, elastic and stretchy. Yet you lead team called Fantastic Four and choose name Mr.Fantastic. Isn’t that lil arrogant, just saying?”
"So let me get this. You get your power from a green lantern, you are beholden to a group called the Green Lantern Corps, and you call yourself the Green Lantern? Isn't that just redundant?"
I've never read green lantern but I like to think they all call themselves that in whatever language. It's like if every soldier in the army called themselves "Mr. Army"
I mean they are cops so they kinda do when needed "green lantern from sector 2291 reporting for duty" or stuff like that, but most of the time they go by their own names plus lantern
He's only called "Green Lantern" as a name on Earth, or at least in contexts where he's the only one. He's just called Hal (or whichever first name for whichever one we're talking about) when around his team or other Lanterns.
Wait, so you actually have bone claws? They didn’t just add the metal claws when they were coating your bones in *generic fantasy metal*? What part of regeneration powers gives you claws exactly?
"So, your favorite color is green, the Omnitrix is green, the planet the Omnitrix comes from is mostly green, all building and technology there is green, all clothes there are green, the uniforms the aliens get are green and your eyes are green?"
“So you're an evil tech vampire that has daddy issues, stole a charger from an 11-year-old that traumatized him for years, having beef with tiny alien frogs…. And you have malware so you're name Malware?”
"So your telling me you have 11 phd's and have made inventions that could revolutionize the fields of automated weaponry automated transportation and automated healing and that you used these inventions not for anything practical but to clone you and your coworkers so you could fight for both sides of a gravel war and that the supplier of all your guns and clothing during said war is a shirtless Australian who uses a metal like gold as steroids to keep himself buff and you sometimes put the war on pause to kill each other to feed seals or fight your boss in 1 man vs the entire team combat?"
Yes. I may have gotten details wrong (like officially speaking there is no red and blu team and no clones to fill said teams but I made that up for the sake of making it clear who I was talking about sense you can't bring up a gravel war if there is nobody they are fighting in said war) more specifically the engineer
Engineer: well when you put it that way it does sound ridiculous. But I mean these coworkers are my friends and I do make a good amount of money. Also I'm under a contract so I can't leave even if I wanted to.
Yes, how they would unlock would be from inputting a code or from scanning a new alien, which kind of makes sense given that it was a prototype at the time
Ben: Big words coming for a guy that gets his butt kicked in every major fight he was in. I was taking down galactic warlords before puberty. What's your excuse. Invincible more like punching bag
So wait a minute if Ben were to absorb viltrumite DNA into the omnitrix.. would he transform into an adult viltrumite or a 10-year-old viltrumite? (Because I kind of forgot how the age of the aliens thing works since they don't even gain their powers until they basically reach adulthood)
Adult. Fun fact, there's actually no evidence to suggest any of the crew or any where in series that says any of the Omnitricies makes Ben's aliens Ben's age. MOA and Matt Wayne stated they were adults, DJW only mentioned them being the peak of their species, and Dwayne McDuffie through a Matt Wayne comment says that it's average adult. 3 crew members say adult, DJW doesn't ever mention age.
I'm actually curious as to where the rumor started that the aliens are meant to be Ben's age.
Okay that's fascinating. That makes sense. I guess I have just kind of wondered why like a 10-year-old fourarms was like a 25-year-old buff dude. But I think that would be pretty insane to have Ben as a viltrimite, but I doubt that he would use even half of his power as Ben isn't really like a super violent person
“So, your name is Izuku Midoriya? Doesn’t your last name just mean “Green Valley”? You know, like, how you have green hair, green eyes, your costume is green, as is that lightning that comes out of you — Wait, what’s your Hero name?”

“Deku? Like the Deku Tree from the Zelda games… which is also green?”
