	~ Plaztek's first lines

“	N'Baro Aksteel X377, the Ultralink traitor!	„
	~ Plaztek upon meeting Steel.

Plaztek is the main antagonist of the Max Steel Reboot episode "Toxic Relationship".

He is a creation that was the result of a fusion between an evil Ultralink, Fishy (an artificial fish), and an orange slime. Unlike all the evil Ultralinks, Plaztek wants to destroy the world.

He is voiced by Andrew Francis, who also voiced Toxzon, Air Elementor, Fire Elementor and Ultimate Elementor in the same series, William Taylor in Smallville, Muruta Azrael in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Kajet in TOME: Terrain of Magical Expertise, Kabuki Mask and Morro in LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu.

Appearance

Prior to his bonding, Plaztek was a red Stealth Ultralink.

After bonding, he became a giant humanoid fish-like creature with a hunched-over posture and a fish scale texture to his skin. He has the Ultralink core located on his forehead, having various irregular spikes surrounding it. He has orange eyes, a few spiky protrusions on the nose region, sharp irregular teeth and fin-like extensions near his mouth. He has a lighter shade of orange on the nose, mouth and abdomen areas and a dorsal fin. He has muscular arms, webbed fingers and feet and a large tail that ends in a trident-like webbed structure.

Personality

Plaztek had a similar personality to other evil Ultralinks, wanting to destroy Earth for the glory of Makino and sharing a deep hatred for Steel due to his betrayal. He inherited some of Toxzon's goals and mannerisms, as he wanted to eliminate a hot dog vendor who squirted mustard on his owner, and referred to humanity as a "toxic pollutant".

Due to the fact that the Ultralink was damaged during the linking process, he acted in a erratic way, such as performing involuntary movements while talking and stuttering frequently.

He was also oblivious to who Fishy was and was willing to form an alliance with Toxzon to accomplish his goal.

Abilities

• Superhuman Strength: Like other bonded Ultralinks, Plaztek is much stronger than an average individual.
• Superhuman Durability: Plaztek's body was highly durable and resistant, being nearly impossible to penetrate. According to Steel, his skin was made out of a high-performance polyethylene plastic. He was able to withstand various projectiles of N-Tek weaponry, such as tanks and blasters and multiple attacks of Max's Turbo Strength Mode. His skin is also resistant to fire.
• Superhuman Leap: Plaztek can jump farther than an average individual, allowing him to quickly travel from one place to another.
• Superhuman Reflexes: Plaztek could dodge several missiles from N-Tek's Jump Jets at high speed.
• Plastic Projectiles: Plaztek is capable of forming various plastic-based projectiles and objects from his mouth, arm cannons and tail. He can release fish-shaped projectiles to trap his enemies, sharp bladed formations from his tail, bombs and sticky webs that harden over time. He can also release a toxic goop with acidic properties from his mouth, which quickly deteriorated the wings of various N-Tek Striker Drones. His arm cannon allows him to shoot various fish-shaped projectiles at once, allowing him to overwhelm his foes.
• Shield Creation: Plaztek can create a highly durable shield made out of the same material as his body.
• Absorption: Plaztek can augment his power and size by consuming plastic-based objects.
• Unlimited Stamina: Like other Ultralinks, Plaztek can fight during long periods without needing to rest.

Biography

A henchmen of Makino wanted to have the Ultralink bond with Toxzon to create a powerful creature. However, the Ultralink accidentally bonded with Toxzon's toy fish, Fishy, and an orange substance which created Plaztek. The minion was shocked and disappointed and left.

Toxzon was shocked that his fish was gone and had a hallucination of it being trapped within the creature. Plaztek attacked Toxzon for and tried to knock him back. Toxzon wanted his fish back he was unaware that his fish was now Plaztek. Plaztek then escaped.

Plaztek went on to capture a powerful device that would help it in its goal to bring destruction to the world. Max Steel tried to stop him in their confrontation but Plaztek ultimately escaped and went to the Arctic to conclude its goal.

While at the Arctic, Toxzon confronted it and told it that he would like to join forces with him to spread chaos across the globe. At first, Plaztek was skeptical but he decided to join the alliance. However, Plaztek was unaware that Toxzon wanted to kill him to retrieve the fish that he thought was trapped inside it. Soon enough, N-Tek arrived to stop them.

Plaztek fought Max Steel and tried to stop N-Tek from destroying the device that would ensure the end of the world. Plaztek was betrayed by Toxzon. It was also overwhelmed by Max Steel and fell into the water. Toxzon tried to reach Plaztek in hopes of getting his fish back but the imaginary fish told him to move on without him. Plaztek then sank to the bottom of the ocean.
