Mega Man?

From The Codex
Mega Man (Franchise)/Mega Man?
Jump to navigationJump to search


Mega Man?, known as Rockman? in Japan, is a boss from Mega Man Powered Up that the player faces when playing with a Robot Master on his own stage. He is not the real Mega Man, but rather a robot created by Dr. Wily to impersonate him. His appearance is similar to the original blue bomber, but wears a purple scarf, much like Proto Man's yellow scarf. He also has a triangle on his helmet instead of a square, and has a more hostile expression on his face. He also inherits the real Mega Man's Mega Buster, though his shots are green instead of yellow (normal shots) or blue.

In the dialogue exchange between the player Robot Master and Mega Man?, he tries to pass himself off as the real Mega Man and convince them to join up with Dr. Wily, frequently using lingo or terms appealing to the particular Robot Master, only for his plan to quickly backfire and having to resort to eliminating them. Most of the Robot Masters see through his facade (notably with Ice Man, Elec Man, Time Man and Oil Man directly seeing through it), though Cut Man seems to be naive enough to believe that Mega Man? is the real Mega Man, to the point the boss has to explain Cut Man he is not the real one (though Cut Man still does not take the bait to join Dr. Wily).

Codex Statistics

Grade: A

Attack Potency: At most Multi-Continent level (Potency) (Fought against and harmed the Robot Masters that can harm Mega Man, who was able to fight on par with beings such as Duo, whose fight with Evil Robot caused a cloud explosion on Jupiter which was at this level), Higher with Rage Power (When Robot Masters are damaged to about half their health, they become invulnerable for a few seconds and perform more powerful attacks)

Durability: At most Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from the Robot Masters who can take hits from Mega Man)

Powers and Techniques




Equipment

  • Mega Buster: Mega Buster, known as the Rock Buster in Japan, is a powerful arm cannon that is utilized by those named Mega Man in the eponymous franchise. While varying in function, the Mega Buster is most well known for shooting yellow shots of energy and possessing the ability to be charged to fire a Charge Shot.

Notable Techniques

  • Jump: Jump is a common action that allows characters reach higher places.
  • Move: Move is the most basic of the commands. It allows the player to navigate the character through the gameplay environment by walking, running, etcetera Some items and moves, like Speedster and Dash, improves the mobility of the character.
  • Mega Buster: Mega Buster, known as the Rock Buster in Japan, is a powerful arm cannon that is utilized by those named Mega Man in the eponymous franchise. While varying in function, the Mega Buster is most well known for shooting yellow shots of energy and possessing the ability to be charged to fire a Charge Shot.
    • Buster Shot: Shot is the basic attack of Mega Man. Initially, Mega Man could shoot only three bullets at a time from his Mega Buster and the bullets could pass through walls, but he had different abilities depending on the games and parts equipped. Examples include a limit of 2-5 bullets on screen, shots that can't pass through walls, bigger shots to increase the chance to hit targets, the ability to charge the shot, rapid fire, limited energy, and other variations.
    • Charge Shot: A Charge Shot is performed by holding the Shot button to charge energy and cause more damage to enemies, with the added advantage of plowing through enemies who succumb to its power.
  • Slide: Sliding, also known as slide, is a move from the original Mega Man series that Mega Man can use since Mega Man 3. The Game Boy installments implement sliding starting in Mega Man II. Slide allows the user to evade enemy projectiles, avoid some traps and access narrow passageways. It can also be used to move faster.
  • Swim: Swim allows the character to move freely in the water. Mega Man can swim in Mega Man 8.

Other

Standard Tactics: Mega Man? will use his arm cannon to do attacks, along with sliding and charged shot.

Weaknesses: If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.

Trivia

  • Mega Man? could possibly be related to Copy Robot in several ways.
    • Both are loaded with Mega Man's data; evidence of this is Mega Man? and Copy Robot having the same voice clips.
    • Dr. Light's robots' health meters feature an avatar of their faces when they are both playable characters and bosses, but Mega Man?'s health meter has a "W", like the fortress bosses (Copy Robot being one of them).
    • Like Copy Robot, Mega Man? explodes into energy spheres when he is defeated (though they are colored green instead of blue).
  • This is the only boss in the game who cannot be faced by Mega Man himself, Roll, or Proto Man.

    A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all.
  2. Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
    A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful.
  3. Weapon: Transforming Rockbuster, fires a solar bullet

  5. Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
    A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
    Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way.
  6. PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
    Dr. Wily has reformed, and he and Dr. Right have joined forces, working together to develop a giant peace-keeping robot named “GAMMA”.
    “GAMMA”…… It was the life-long dream of Dr. Right, a giant robot to protect and serve world peace.
    Their research almost complete, all that remained was to combine 8 energy elements that were scattered about the uncharted planets, and bestow them to “GAMMA”…
    –However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!! Upon learning of this from Dr. Right, “ROCKMAN” immediately set out on a path for the uncharted planets–a new battle was about to begin!!

  52. By swapping out the program data of all the robots Dr. Wily has constructed, this robot is able to adapt other robots’ moves as its own. With the powers of all robots combined into one, this is truly one dreadful robot.
  53. This all-purpose robot can take on the same abilities of every other robot merely by switching its program data. Still, if it just copies the powers of robots that Rockman has already been able to defeat, one might expect for Rockman to overcome them again…
