Pulver-Eyes is a Good Rock Lord from the planet Quartex. He can be quick tempered but is just as quick to forget for his friends. A fierce warrior, he uses his Arrestor to drag enemies towards him and engages them in close combat. Pulver-Eyes also tends to eat rocks, even in the middle of battle.

Pulver-Eyes was one of the loyal followers of the Rock Lord Boulder and was with his leader when Granite arrived to tell them they were Magmar's next target. He took part in the pre-emptive ambush on Magmar's troops in a valley near Boulder's stronghold and fought well while also surreptitiously snacking on rocks but was forced into retreat along with a small group of survivors after the arrival of the Renegades onboard Thruster turned the battle against Boulder's troops. Along with his leader, Pulver Eyes was initially wary when they ran into the Guardians soon afterwards, blasting Scooter at point-blank range, before realising they were friends. The allies avoided death in the Sea of Fire thanks to Scooter and then trekked across the wastelands towards the Kingdom of Fossils. On the way they were attacked by Rockasaurs. The group arrived too late to stop their enemies from taking the Fossil Lord's scepter but were able to successfully storm Stonehead and ultimately thwart Cy-Kill's plans to use the Ultra Scepter for galactic domination.

Boulder tired of the threat Magmar posed to Quartex and led his troops out to attack Stonehead, though Pulver-Eyes didn't see the hurry and was happy chomping on rocks. However they were ambushed by Magmar, who froze them in their rock forms with his new Cryon Ray. Only Nuggit - scouting ahead and clearly doing a bang-up job of it - escaped, following the Evil Rock Lords back to their base, where the Good Rock Lords were imprisoned in a cage. He was able to free them, allowing Boulder and his men to get free. Magmar again attempted to use the Cryon Ray but Nuggit had disabled it, so Boulder shot the whole group of Evil Rock Lords over with his Power Sword. Powerful Living Rocks Face a Deadly New Peril

Along with Boulder, Granite, Marbles and Crackpot, Pulver-Eyes was cornered on a cliff over the Lava River by Magmar's Evil Rock Lords. Thankfully Nuggit arrived with the Rockasaurs, giving his friends an opening to fight back. Update from Quartex

Pulver-Eyes was one of the Go-Lems on the forgotten planet Earth at the centre of Gobotron, a group led by Boulder who believed themselves to be built by gods and born from the Earth itself. The group mainly meditated to achieve a state of mind they called the Quartex. However, when their meditations were disturbed by the Renegades and Zod the group aided the Guardians by opening up a chasm that swallowed up both Cy-Kill and Zod, giving an opening for the Go-Bots to finally destroy the monster.
