Green kryptonite

Green kryptonite appears in Smallville quite often, usually used as a weapon against the Kryptonian Clark Kent or as a source for humans to obtain superpowers.

Season One[]

Although it was not yet identified as "kryptonite" in Season One, meteor rocks were often seen in various forms.

Pilot (10/16/01) 101
Pilot meteor shower Back in 1989, the year of the meteor shower, it was shown that a meteor hit the field where Jeremy Creek was tied up as a Scarecrow. A young Lex was also nearby as the blast caused him to lose his hair. It was later revealed that Jeremy fell into a coma after the impact and didn't wake up until present day when he learned that the kryptonite granted him with electrokinetic powers.

Clark Kent's vulnerability to green kryptonite was also introduced in this episode when he tried to approach Lana Lang while she was wearing the meteor rock necklace. As soon as he got within five feet of her, Clark fell down and became sick. Whitney Fordman later used the same necklace to disable Clark and tie him up as a Scarecrow, unaware of the fact the necklace was the actual reason for Clark's weakness.

Metamorphosis (10/23/01) 102
Meta097 Greg Arkin, a bug collector had his bugs imbued with kryptonite radiation. While driving them to safety his car crashed and released the bugs, causing them all to bite him (it was later revealed that his mutation wouldn't be possible unless a large number bit him at the same time). He was then granted with numerous bug-like abilities, namely the ability to create spider web and enchanted strength and agility.

The battle between Greg and Clark happened inside the Creekside Foundry, a place filled with meteor rocks which gave Clark a lot of trouble. However, he managed to find a cover made out of lead which was previously revealed to be capable of blocking the radiation.

Hothead (10/30/01) 103
103 Coach Walt Arnold was exposed to green kryptonite in a sauna which caused him to receive pyrokinetic powers.

X-Ray (11/06/01) 104
Xray3 Tina Greer suffered from soft bone disease when she was young, but she made a miraculous recovery at the time of the meteor shower. It also allowed her to change her appearance into anyone of the similar height or weight. While confronting Clark at the cemetery, Tina had Lana's necklace inside a pocket on her jacket, so she easily managed to upperhand Clark. However, she was unaware of kryptonite being his weakness so Clark easily managed to knock her out soon after she took off the jacket.

He manages to get far enough away from it to save himself and protect her from an explosion and then taken to the hospital for treatment.

It was later revealed that trace amounts of kryptonite have been found under his skin and the violent seizures were trying to shake them out of his system. Even the small trace amounts of kryptonite were enough to weaken Clark to the point that he couldn't come within about five feet of Earl without losing his abilities. Earl was taken for treatment but it is revealed in the Chloe Chronicles that he died six months later. This marks the first known case of kryptonite being used in experimentation.
