Evolto is a mysterious entity who manipulated the power of Pandora Box to annihilate the civilization of Mars and the main antagonist of Kamen Rider Build. He initially operated on Earth using the body of Soichi Isurugi, the astronaut who discovered the Pandora Box on Mars, planned to annihilate the Earth in the same way he did Mars, masterminded the division of Japan and the civil war that broke out. Evolto can be cruel and ruthless if he wants to, making him not much different from Gentoku in regards to their aggression.
He is more than willing to commit more heinous acts, such as killing several Touto guards using his venom, and changing Eita Kawai's face into that of Shingo Kuwata just to show he could. Like Gentoku, he views science and the Rider System as instruments for war. Evolto has the traits of a high-functioning sociopath, with his true intentions of destroying the Earth using the Pandora Box coming to light, and his tendency to betray those he comes across with. He manipulates both heroes and villains alike to further his twisted genocidal quest and he has no qualms killing them once they served their purpose. Once he opened the Pandora Box, completing the Pandora Tower and claiming an incomplete Evol Trigger, Evolto becomes more intent on achieving his initial goal as soon as possible. He also becomes more short-tempered since the Riders and Vernage continually ruin his plans.

- Similar to Night Rogue, Blood Stalk accesses his main form with the Transteam Gun and the Cobra Fullbottle. Unlike Riders and other Transteam/Kaiser system users, Evolto is almost always seen transformed into Blood Stalk after his identity has been revealed to Sento and the others at nascita
- His stats are not only stronger than most of Build's forms, but also surpass Night Rogue's with only speed being slightly lower than his. Stalk also possesses numerous abilities built into his suit. On each wrist, he has extendable venomous tendrils that can shoot out and stab victims, injecting them with venom capable of either paralyzing, killing, or even disintegrating them. He can also create an energy cobra projection through his suit to attack or capture targets. It has been proven that Evolto is extremely proficient with the Blood Stalk arsenal and its abilities granted to him; his skill with the Transteam System, coupled with his enhanced durability, has allowed him to survive multiple skirmishes with Build and Cross-Z, and defeat Night Rogue in a duel.
- The true purpose of the Blood Stalk system is to encourage the rise of Hazard Levels in Riders. Thus, he is shown capable of accepting far greater punishments than either Build or Cross-Z. Instead of showing pain or discomfort, Stalk is otherwise enjoying the beatings so long that his opponent's Hazard Level rises. In order to facilitate this, Blood Stalk can measure the current hazard level of Kamen Riders/Smash by simply touching them.
- Stalk states that this form is merely temporary, as he uses powers acquired from Mars to stay toe to toe with enemies that are supposed to be stronger than what the Transteam System can put out. This is is shown when Stalk was able to fight on par with Build's RabbitTank Sparkling form while Night Rogue was easily defeated by it.
- Blood Stalk also has several non-combat abilities. As mentioned by Takumi himself, Stalk's equipment has the ability to change its user's voice tone freely to hide his identity. It is later revealed that the alternate voice is that of Evolto.
- Stalk is also able to activate the Guardians’ true programming as sleeper agents of Faust by snapping his fingers. When in need of a quick escape, he can escape any situation by becoming a cloud of red smoke and flowing away. With the Steam Blade or the Steam Rifle, he can use the following attacks:
- Elek Steam : Blood Stalk shoots electricity at the enemy.
- Ice Steam : Blood Stalk performs an icy slash at the enemy causing them to freeze.
- Devil Steam : Blood Stalk fires a "steam" bullet which will home in on the target and inject them with a dose of Nebula Gas. When used on a human, the person will turn into a Smash; when used on a Smash, the Smash will grow to gigantic proportions and their host will lose all memories once freed.
Transtream Gun finishers:
- Steam Break : Blood Stalk channels the powers of a Faust Fullbottle and performs a powerful blast attack.
- Cobra : Blood Stalk shoots a purple energy ball that detonates upon impact.
- Steam Attack : Blood Stalk channels the powers of a normal Fullbottle and performs a powerful blast attack.

- Cobra : Blood Stalk shoot a purple cobra energy blast that detonates upon impact.
- Steam Attack : Blood Stalk channels the powers of a normal Fullbottle and performs a powerful steam blast attack.

- Cobra Form is Evol's primary and default form accessed with the Cobra and Rider Evolbottles. Evolto labels this form as "Phase 1".
- Evol possesses tremendous power, blowing far past Grease, Rogue, and even Cross-Z Magma by a small margin. He also surpasses Build's RabbitRabbit and TankTank forms, though he loses to RabbitRabbit by maximum jump height and running speed, and TankTank by maximum kicking power.
- Despite these small disadvantages, he still possesses abilities that are almost impossible to counteract, including teleportation and generating energy in his hand to perform an energy blast. He is also able to attack at extremely high speeds and block attacks quite easily, as shown during his first fight with Rogue.

- Black Hole Form is Evol's super form accessed by upgrading Cobra Form with the Evol Trigger.
- Host Possession : Evolto can possess any living being to carry out his plans to destroy all living planets he comes across, He is able to wait dormant in the Pandora Box until another living being finds it, at which point, he leaves the Pandora Box to possess whoever discovered it. After achieving Black Hole Form in recent episodes, he apparently no longer needs a host for a body to survive, yet he still uses the appearance of Soichi Isurugi for personal preference.
- Computer Proficiency : Evolto has some level of programming knowledge, as he was able to hack the GPS on a stolen motorcycle, and steal the completed Sclash System data from Sento's computer.
- Altered Physiology : Being the first human to be exposed to the Pandora Box, "Soichi" has demonstrated numerous superhuman abilities since his return from Mars. Unbeknownst to everyone, including Soichi himself, these powers came from the Evolto.
- Hazard Level 5+ : Due to Evolto being an extraterrestrial being, he is able to achieve a Hazard Level of 5, thus allowing him to use the Evol-Driver.
- Matter Reshaping : Evolto was able to manipulate a tablet computer into a rod shaped item that he used as a back scratcher.
- Superhuman Agility : Evolto was shown to be able to leap at a scale far beyond human capacity after his battle with Build's RabbitTank Sparkling Form.
- Identity Manipulation : Using a cloud of steam from his hand, he can make anyone's face look like anyone else's; the process seems painful to those who are awake to feel its effects. While the permanence of the change is yet unclear, certain individuals have been shown to retain their new identities for more than a year. Initially thought to be an ability of the Blood Stalk system, this power has since been revealed to be Evolto's. However, it was shown that this power could be applied only if the copied person is dead or killed. This process also seems to have an effect on the subject's physiology as well, as seen when Juzaburo Namba discarded his walking stick and no longer needing glasses to see upon having his appearance changed into that of the dead Masakuni Mido. This process has also been demonstrated to be reversible at Evolto's discretion.
- Memory Manipulation : Evolto has shown the ability to erase the memories of others with nothing more than a touch of his hand. Unlike the amnesia induced by Nebula Gas, Evolto's memory manipulation is shown to be complete, causing a total wipe of the person's previous identity. However, with time, some victims have shown to be able to recover partial memories, skills, or even the entirety of their past given proper circumstances.
- Pyrokinesis : Evolto could shoot a crimson flare from his hand or with his Transteam Gun at the enemy. Its power is enough to destroy Banjo's Dragon Sclashjelly and Sclash Driver. He is able to use this power in both his civilian form and as Blood Stalk, later also carried after he becomes Evol.
- Pandora Box Control : Evolto could manipulate Pandora Box power to do his bidding, either to attack enemy with various phenomenons or to change Pandora Tower inner structure.
- Superhuman Speed : Evolto is shown to be able to move at speeds faster than the human eye. He demonstrates this ability by escaping with the Box after defeating Build, and at the nascita where he knocks everyone out. He gains this ability after possessing Ryuga.
- Instantaneous Transportation : Evolto is shown with the ability to teleport him to different locations. He was able to bring everyone at nascita to the center of Pandora's Tower instantly.
- Human Disguise: After reaching his fourth Phase, Evolto gains the ability to assume a human form, namely that of his former host, Juzaburo Namba, and even Masakuni Mido.
- Dagger Proficiency : Although a very subtle example, Evolto is capable of throwing knives at a high precision rate.
