 * Arm Cannon: And again
 * Badass
 * Badass Abnormal: Through the use of the ability "Full Synchro", he and Lan can combine their power to make him vastly more powerful than the average Navi in the first three games storywise, and the ability finally becomes a recurring gameplay element in the last three games of the main series.
 * Badass Long Hair: As Proto Soul
 * Took a Level In Badass: Throughout the games, he does a subtly increasing version. In game two, he acquires the ability to change his attacks based on his battle performance, which sticks with him throughout the third game, where he also acquires a permanently equipped (though upgradable) charge attack. By games four and five he can use Soul Unison and gains gameplay use of Full Synchro, and by the final game he drops Soul Unison for the even easier to utilize Cross Fusion system.
 * Berserk Button: In volume 8 of the Manga, Mega Man.EXE kills Shade Man.EXE by ripping the evil vampire navi to shreds for threatening to kill Lan. Of course, that was the Darkloids' plan all along (to make him angry).

 * Seems to be one in the games as well. On several occasions throughout he series, Mayl calls Lan a dummy, and on the ACDC Area BBS, she wrote:


 * Design notes in the recently translated Official Complete Works claim that Mayl was intended to be one of these in her original conception (and the concept art certainly is much less demure than her finished form), due to the creator's preference for them, though this was nixed due to the waning popularity of the Tsundere personality.

Mick (Aragaki Kojirou)

 * Dirty Coward

Vic (Tsuyuharu Nyudo)
"A man that can be described as somewhat of a lunatic with some ninja-like abilities that have never really been explained in the sixth game. He and Elementman.EXE wreak havoc with the weather by taking over Sky Town's weather control system."

 * Hot Dad: Of the Nerds Are Sexy variety.
 * Megane
 * Not That Kind of Doctor
 * Unnamed Parent: In the English versions of the first three games, he is only referred to as "Dr. Hikari" or "[Lan's] Dad." It wasn't until the Battle Chip Challenge Spin-Off that his first name was revealed, and only the 5th and 6th games mentioned it in the main series.

Haruka Hikari
"Lan's mother."


 * Education Mama: Lan can NOT sneak bad grades past this woman, though given he's not one for studying, it's hard to knock her for this.
 * Good Parents: Like her husband, she's a very dutiful parent to their son, and Lan and Mega Man both respect her.
 * Hot Mom: Lampshaded in the first game by someone who thinks she's hot, then panics when he realizes he said this in front of her son.
 * Heroic BSOD: Has one in the fifth game when temporarily Brainwashed and Crazy, and it's a Tear Jerker to watch, especially because
 * Took a Level In Badass: In the Gaiden Game (Battle Chip Challenge), she's a possible battle contestant.

Ms. Mari (Mariko Ozono)

 * Forced Tutorial: For the first two games.
 * Ship Tease: With Higsby, although it's definitely more from his end.

Ribitta (Kero Midoriwaka)

 * Animal Motifs: Frogs, of course.
 * Combat Commentator: In the N1 Grand Prix arc of the anime.

 * What Could Have Been: It seems that she was going to be a member of the Cross Fusion team in Stream, but in the end it was decided against.

Higsby (Yamitaro Higure)
"A part-time teacher of sorts that also runs the local battlechip shop. In the first game, he was a member of World Three and tried to brainwash the local Akihara school into becoming World Three servants. Since that failed attempt, he cut off ties with the World Three and becomes a close friend to Lan and Mega Man's group."


 * Adorkable: At times.
 * Heel Face Turn: We mentioned that he was in World Three at the beginning of the first game, right?
 * Nerd Glasses
 * Otaku
 * Proud to Be A Geek

 * Lovable Coward: He's not the best at netbattling, but people love him anyway.
 * Took a Level In Badass: He's frankly pathetic in the first game, but in later appearances he's a far more formidable opponent.
 * Yuji Ueda

Mr. Famous (Meijin Eguchi)
"A man with an outgoing personality that offers advice to young Netbattlers and tests them. Operator of Gateman.EXE, Punk.EXE, Kendoman.EXE, and Footman.EXE in the games, although he is never seen with more than one at a time."


 * Catch Phrase: "san wa iranai", or in the dub, "Famous. Just Famous.".
 * Contest Winner Cameo: All of his Navis, except Punk.
 * Creator Cameo: Mr. Famous is Masakazu "Meijin" Eguchi, a scenario writer for the EXE series (who would also get an avatar in Legend Master Shin). During the early tournaments following the release of the first game, Masakazu gained a name for himself by demonstrating mastery of the mechanics.
 * Insistent Terminology: He insists on being called "Meijin" and not "Meijin-san", and always says "san wa iranai" (roughly "no need for the -san") whenever he gets called "Meijin-san". Once, he underscores this by pointing out he isn't even over thirty, yet.
 * The dub changes this to an aversion to being called "Mr.", which is a fairly direct translation.
 * Red Oni, Blue Oni: With another Creator Cameo -- the character of Soul Battler Takeshi. Takeshi, who only appears in certain message boards in the last few games (and who is the reason for all the "Soul" naming in 6), is the Battle Network incarnation of a much-beloved EXE tournament host whose Hot Blooded-ness is often juxtaposed with the cool, collected Mr. Famous. More information on Takeshi, here.

Tory Froid (Tohru Hikawa)
"A rather young boy whose father manages the Waterworks, which purifies and controls the water supply. Because of this, he was kidnapped and taken hostage by WWW in an attempt to force his father and Iceman.EXE to comply to the WWW's demands."


 * Ascended Extra: In the first game, he was just a random kid you rescued, and had a generic sprite. In the anime, he becomes a much more major character.
 * Demoted to Extra: And then he is hit with this in later seasons. It makes you wonder what the point of giving him a bigger role was...
 * Bilingual Bonus: "Froid" is the French word for cold.

IceMan.EXE
"Operated by Tory and his father. Iceman is a rather small and cute Eskimo-type Navi specializing in ice attacks. Voiced by Samuel Vincent in the dub."


 * Badass Adorable
 * Chest Insignia: A bright blue eight-pointed star against a slightly darker blue background.
 * An Ice Person

Raika
"A military commander from the cold nation of Sharo, he is the operator of the sniper Searchman.EXE. They usually only cared about achieving their objectives during dangerous missions, but in the anime, they eventually warm up to the main casts' friendly personalities."


 * Ascended Extra: They become main characters in the anime during Beast.
 * Breakout Character: Is given a much larger role in the laters seasons, basically becoming the tertiary protagonist after Lan and Chaud.
 * Cold Sniper
 * Jerk With a Heart of Gold
 * Kuudere
 * Military Brat: Comes with him being a Russian (Sharo) soldier stereotype.
 * Green Haired Pretty Boy

Net Mafia Gospel
"This Net Mafia group makes up the villains for the second game and the second season of the anime. Their main goal in both the game and the anime is to create a beast made up of internet bugs with the power to destroy all that stand in their way."

Arashi Kazefuki
"A rather mean-spirited man that makes a living out of extorting money from rich families in any way that he can. He tries to extort money from Yai's parents to fund Gospel projects by leaking dangerous gas into Yai's house at the beginning of the second game."


 * Meaningful Name: "Arashi" means "storm", and "Kaze" means "wind".
 * Oh Crap: his reaction once he notices the bomb noted below.
 * You Have Failed Me: In the second game he is blown up by a briefcase bomb after losing to Lan and Mega Man.

Speedy Dave (Daisuke Hayami)
"He is an ecoterrorist that joined Gospel out of his love of nature. He brags a lot about his IQ of 160. He is the operator of Quickman.EXE, and attempts to blow up a dam in the second game. In the anime, he is a childhood friend of Sal. Voiced by Kirby Morrow in the dub."


 * Anti-Villain: Only in the anime, as it turns out that he never truly planned to hurt anyone, and wanted to merely scare them into taking better care of nature. By the end of the episode, he has betrayed Gospel and leaves, but not before saying goodbye to Sal.
 * Early Bird Cameo: At least in terms of the game's timeline. He sends Lan a thank you letter for stopping the infected QuickMan.EXE before he becomes an enemy in MMBN2.
 * Informed Ability: As Chaud said, his IQ of 160 didn't do him much good...

Mr. Dark/Dusk (Dark Miyabi)
"A mysterious and dangerous assassin-for-hire that operates Shadowman.EXE and is feared throughout both the real and cyber worlds. He is hired by Gospel in the second game to destroy key installations that make up the network, but fails when Mega Man and Proto Man intervene. In the fifth game, after a short fight, he agrees to help MegaMan and Colonel retake the internet from Nebula."


 * Heel Face Turn
 * Inconsistent Dub: In 5, he's renamed Dusk.
 * Instant Awesome, Just Add Ninja: It's nice to see that even in this advanced age, ninjas can and will still exist.

Princess Pride
"In the games, she is said to be the ruler of a small island nation known as Creamland that gained considerable power due to being one of the first to use the new internet technology. However, the larger and more powerful nations soon caught up and surpassed Creamland in terms of political power, which motivates her to join Gospel, attempt to sabotage an international Net Official meeting and kill everyone involved. She operates KnightMan.EXE. Voiced by Jillian Michaels in the dub."


 * Badass Princess: In the anime especially, though she's pretty willing to put her own ass on the line in the games as well.
 * Everything's Better With Princesses
 * Heel Face Turn: In EXE 5.
 * Rebellious Princess
 * Royals Who Actually Do Something

KnightMan.EXE
"Loyal retainer of Princess Pride, and saddled with a rather admirable case of My Master Right or Wrong."


 * Gentle Giant: When not in combat, he's obviously a Nice Guy despite his imposing stature.
 * Heel Face Turn: He worked with Gospel in MMBN2, but only because his Princess did. In the fifth game, he joins Team Colonel alongside the Princess.
 * Mighty Glacier
 * My Master Right or Wrong: Despite claiming to have no ability to question his orders, he clearly had moral problems with being on the villainous team in the second game, but elected to remain loyal to his mistress. He joins Team Colonel by the same logic, though he joins the team rather willingly.

Gauss Magnus (Gauss Magnets)
"Leader of his own company and an outward success story, he has some very bitter issues regarding having grown up poor, which is why he's a member of Gospel in the second game."


 * Overprotective Dad: Of his daughter Tesla, in the anime, albeit played for laughs.
 * The Dragon: Implied to be one for Gospel.
 * The Unfavorite: Mentions his brother Jack  got adopted into a rich family, while he had to dig himself out of poverty the hard way, and he's rather bitter about it.

MagnetMan.EXE
"Gauss (and later his daughter Tesla's) Navi."


 * Barrier Warrior: His specialty in the fifth Battle Network game.
 * Battle Butler: Acts this way to both Gauss and Tesla.
 * Heel Face Turn: A reluctant one in the fifth game, though he remains loyal because Tesla explicitly orders him to be, hence he joins Team Protoman alongside her.
 * My Master Right or Wrong: Will do what Gauss or Tesla order, good or ill, without complaint, even if it means Teeth Clenched Teamwork with Mega Man as a member of Team Proto Man.
 * Shock and Awe: Electric elemental due to his magnetism theme.
 * The Brute -> The Big Guy

Leader of Gospel (Kid Grave)/

 * Chekhov's Gunman: The first time you see him in the games, he's on the same plane that a fellow Gospel agent was planning to attack. In fact, he can be seen even earlier in the Netopian Airport terminal.
 * And after you defeat said Gospel agent, he vanishes from the plane.
 * Abusive Parents: Or rather, foster parents.
 * Bratty Half Pint / Insufferable Genius: His Manga characterization. It really grinds on Chaud's nerves.
 * Break the Cutie: His backstory.
 * Cute Shotaro Boy
 * Fan Nickname: The fanbase has a habit of calling him "Gospel Shuryou" as if it's his name and not just "Gospel boss" in Japanese.
 * Heel Face Turn: He joins forces to help Chaud and Raika defeat the darkloids in the Manga. He also seems to have repented in MMBN3 and actually snaps Lan out of brief Heroic BSOD.
 * Improbable Age

Nebula
"The main antagonists for the fourth and fifth game, along with the Axess season of the anime. Nebula is mostly made up of autonomous Navis, and would rather take over the internet instead of causing its destruction. They experiment with and distribute Darkchips throughout the internet, which grant Navis incredible power but often results in the Navi's soul being tainted in various ways, including and not limited to disobeying any possible operators and an addiction to Darkchip usage."

Dr. Regal
"The leader of Nebula, Dr. Regal seeks to take over the world and plunge it into an age of evil and darkness. In the fourth game, he attempts to achieve this by taking over Duo's Comet. In the fifth game, he attempts to activate Soul Net, which links humans to the internet where he can tamper with their emotions. His Navi is Laserman.EXE."


 * As Long As There Is Evil: Leaves Lan to ponder this in the epilogue of the fourth game.
 * Avenging the Villain: In the games, he's the son of Dr. Wily.
 * Beard of Evil: In the fifth game.
 * Big Bad: Games 4 and 5. Axess season and The Movie.
 * Black and Gray Morality: Mocks any conjecture of heroicism.
 * Card-Carrying Villain: Makes absolutely no bones about his willingness to do horrible things to people.
 * What the Hell, Hero?: Challenges the heroes' simplistic views of Good and Evil during the climax of the fourth game. Accuses Chaud of slaughtering countless "criminal" Net Navis during his tenure as an Official, and accuses Lan of being similar when he hunted down the Net Navi responsible for severing global network connections... which almost certainly establishes him as a Troll, since the Heel Navi in question, who had to have a good idea of the magnitude of his actions, attempted kamikaze suicide when he was cornered.
 * Chekhov's Gunman: He's always been the head of Nebula, but that was largely an issue on the back burner of the story until late in the 4th game. In the 5th game he actually has a plot to enact.
 * Cold-Blooded Torture: Does this to Dr. Hikari in the fifth game.
 * Eye Scream: In the movie, he kidnaps Yuichirou and performs laser eye surgery on him to extract the last remaining data for Nebula Grey.
 * Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Yuichirou bowls the good doctor over in the ending of the fifth game.
 * Family-Unfriendly Death: In the anime. He also very clearly commits suicide by falling backwards off a roof in the fourth game, though the fifth reveals he lived. In the manga, he makes a successful escape with his personal submarine... until Forte catches up with him and destroys it wholesale.
 * Inflicts one on ShadeMan in Axess. It is not fun at all watching Shade screaming as his arms are ripped off. Even less pleasant is when he gets hit point blank with LaserMan's Cross Laser, which actually manages to explode out of him.
 * Heel Face Turn: Yuichirou urges him to do this, specifically returning to the mouth of an erupting Mt. Fuji to offer him a Last Second Chance. While his mind reels at this (and with good reason), Regal feebly manages to refuse.
 * Humans Are Bastards: His motivating principle, derived from society's rejection of his father. His plot in 5 basically amounts to him putting every human mind through hell and watching as the world tears itself apart.
 * In the Blood: A revenge-driven mad scientist? Yeah, he Turned Out Like His Father, alright. Ancestry is a recurring theme between him and Yuichirou.
 * Laser-Guided Amnesia:
 * Light Is Not Good: While his navi Laser Man has light-based powers, he is just as evil as his operator.
 * Mind Rape: This is basically what happens to people caught up in his version of Soul Net.
 * Not That Kind of Doctor: Shows up as a subtle play in the manga - Dr. Regal, after having been revealed as infiltrating the Ameroupan/Netopian army with Darkloids, introduces himself as "assisting with a birth."
 * One-Winged Angel: At the end of Stream, he transforms into a huge serpent with a human head.
 * Shadow Archetype/Evil Counterpart: Of Yuichirou. World-renowned scientist responsible for major leaps in technology? Check. Child of a likewise famous scientist? Check. Develop technology intended to benefit mankind? Ha ha ha no.
 * Trailers Always Spoil: One actually went out of its way to point out who the villain was.
 * Villain With Good Publicity: Well, almost. Hailing from an infamous military state, he's universally recognized as one of the most dangerous men on the planet, but in the face of imminent doom, Yuichirou and the assembled are... not entirely unwilling to work with him.

Ms. Yuri (Yuriko Ozono)
"Ms. Mari's long-lost twin sister, and an high-ranking member of Nebula (in the anime). In the games, she's a former member of WWW instead."


 * Ascended Extra: Her role for the anime has been greatly expanded.
 * Heck, she got her own design. In the games, Yuri was a recolour of Mari.
 * Dark Action Girl: In the anime.
 * : In the anime.
 * Heel Face Turn: In both the games and anime.
 * Impaled With Extreme Prejudice: Operator of Needleman.EXE in the anime.
 * Foe Yay - In the anime, she rather enjoyed pissing off Tesla.
 * Sinister Shades: In the anime.

Nebula Gray
"A pure manifestation of evil that appeared within Dr. Regal's Darkchip factory during the fifth game."


 * The Corruption
 * Eldritch Abomination: The embodiment of the darkness of humanity's soul, which Dr. Regal planned to install into the Soul Server. The Soul Server being the network interfacing with every human mind on the planet.
 * Ultimate Evil - The Elemental Embodiment of Dark Power. Or, rather, Dark Power and Dark Chips are the processed forms of Nebula Gray's essence.
 * Really just a small computer-orb that can manipulate Dark Power like nobody's business. The giant beast people call Nebula Grey is simply the amalgamation of D. Power being controlled. When active the core spouts blue flame, and when inactive, it simply resembles a mechanical orb.
 * Note - this varies between adaptations. The orb is the weak point in the games only. In the anime, Forte-Cross Rockman just whales on the thing wholesale, and we only get a glimpse of the core after Nebula Gray's body has been reduced to gray goo (no, not that kind). In the manga, however, Nebula Gray is a totally self-integrated creature. Made of Dark Power, certainly, but the beast is indeed a beast.

Shademan.EXE
"An autonomous Navi known as a Darkloid, navis who are infused with power from a Dark Chip. He first appeared in 4 as an independent Navi who attacked other Navis to consume their energy and kidnapped Roll.EXE to have her for "dessert". He started out invincible to all attacks, which pushed Land and Megaman into using the Dark Chip he had dropped earlier. As he died he laughed that Megaman was now infused with evil from the Darkchip. He returns in 5 as part of Nebula, occupying the Net and helping towards the activation of Soul Net. In the Axess anime Shademan was the leader of the Darkloids, turning a portion of the Net into their fortress. They were tasked by Nebula to perform missions in exchange for Dark Chips, which he discovered later would lead to their deletion. He was betrayed by Dr. Regal and his Navi Laserman and later attacked them toward the end of the series, but was deleted by the cross fusion of human and Navi."


 * Animal Motif: Bats, par for the corse.
 * As Long As There Is Evil: States in 5 that so long as there is Dark Power, the Darkloids will always come back from deletion.
 * Beard of Evil: Has a thin goatee and mustache.
 * The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: His Noise Crush attack lets him step into your side of the field regardless of how many spaces you have.
 * The Dragon: To Dr. Regal in the anime.
 * Dragon With an Agenda: Partway through the series before the doublecross.
 * Family-Unfriendly Death: Having both your arms violently ripped off and an explosion tear you apart from the inside isn't exactly approved for younger audiances. Hense the 4Kids censoring most of it out.
 * Goddamn Bats: His Omega form in 4 splits into four bats with only one being him every time he's hit with an attack that's over 10 damage. made worse is that this move can destroy the Mystery item on his side of the field, the only way to get the Shademan SP battlechip. He regularly uses homming bats as attacks in 4 and 5.
 * I am a Navitarian
 * I Have You Now, My Pretty: With his intended "dessert" Roll.
 * Make Me Wanna Shout: His Noise Crush ability.
 * No Celebrities Were Harmed: Ishihara stated he had an image of Nobunaga Oda in his mind when designing Shademan.EXE
 * Our Vampires Are Different

Duo.EXE
"Duo is said to be an advanced Navi from a universe far away, created to test and judge life across space and punish said life if they are deemed to be evil. His ultimate method of punishment involves slamming his comet into a planet. He arrives to judge humankind in the fourth game and in the anime season Stream."


 * Deus Est Machina
 * Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: In the games, Lan and Mega Man actually defeat him in combat.
 * : Anime only.
 * Physical God
 * : His final fate in the game.

Slur.EXE
"An anime-only character, Slur is a servant of Duo, although she has a few agendas of her own regarding humankind."


 * Badass: You know you're this when you curb-stomp Bass of all Navi's. Later, she fights Mega Man, Proto Man, Colonel, and Search Man at once.
 * Dark Action Girl
 * Humans Are Bastards: And so, she thinks it is her duty to destroy them.
 * The Dragon: To Duo.
 * Knight Templar: A particularly evil one.
 * Light Is Not Good
 * Red Eyes Take Warning
 * Shock and Awe: Some of her attacks are electricity-based.
 * Treacherous Advisor: She is unconditionally loyal to Duo, but she's actively trying to sway him into deciding that humans are not worthy to live.

Bass.EXE (Forte.EXE)
"In the games, he was created by Dr. Cossack around the same time that Alpha (Proto) was, and he was designed to be the world's first autonomous Navi (that is, a Navi that can function without an operator). However, he was blamed for causing bugs in Alpha's system, and several Navis were sent to delete him. He escaped into the deepest parts of the internet, but not without a scar. In the anime, he is a reincarnation of Pharoahman.EXE. He possesses one of the three Ultimate Programs, and seeks to take the other two from Mega Man and Proto Man. Bass has a hatred for humankind in both versions. Voiced by Matt Hill in the dub."


 * Badass: And HOW!
 * Badass Abnormal: Was explicitly designed to be a Super Navi.
 * Badass Cape
 * All Encompassing Mantle
 * Blood Knight: Especially in the Manga
 * Bonus Boss: In every single game.
 * Casting a Shadow
 * Chest Insignia Concealed by his cape, it's marred by the glowing scar he received during his attempted deletion by Sci Lab.
 * Death Is Cheap: He dies or is at least defeated several times in each game, but he keeps coming back and survives even beyond the encounter with him in the sixth and final game. Due to his ability to recover from near-death due to his Get Ability program, it may actually be impossible to completely destroy him.
 * Deflector Shields: His iconic aura blocks all direct damage until the player hits him with a attack strong enough to break it down.
 * Enemy Mine:
 * In the third game, he has a very reluctant team up with Wily.
 * Expy: To the original Bass
 * Humans Are Bastards
 * Kick the Son of A Bitch:
 * Mega Manning: His Get Ability program, which allows him to take on the abilities of any virus, navi, or program he deletes. Ironic that Bass would be the only one with what is supposed to be Mega Man's signature power.
 * Pet the Dog: While he's otherwise entirely cruel and inhumane in the games, he.
 * Scars Are Forever
 * Stealth Pun: In the second game: "Battle is my forte!"
 * Although it was actually a clone made from Bug Fragments.
 * The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: He considers himself this to Mega Man in the manga after Mega Man defeats him for the first time, which leads him to interfere and actually help Mega Man against several future villains, most prominently Nebula Grey and
 * Worthy Opponent: To Mega Man in the Manga.
 * Worthy Opponent: To Mega Man in the Manga.

Life Virus (Dream Virus)
"A supervirus created by Wily in an attempt to destroy the internet in the first game, it had a variety of destructive attacks, but the one thing that made this virus so dangerous was its usage of the Dream Aura, which was a powerful protective aura with no elemental weaknesses."


 * Demoted to Extra: Subverted, In Later games, the bugs the Dream Virus used became their own class, the Scuttle breed, and each carried an Dream Aura, however, this also allowed you to get your own Aura from the chips created from the virus data.

Zero.EXE
"A virus/Navi hybrid of sorts in the Network Transmission game."


 * Expy: Of Zero from the Mega Man X series, of course - one of the few characters (if not the only one) to be a reference to it.

Alpha (Proto)
"A prototype network of the internet, it was riddled with bugs that were thought to be of Bass's doing, but were later discovered to originate from Alpha itself. Alpha had become sentient, and its bugs began to absorb networks and causing affected devices to malfunction. All links to the internet were taken down for several weeks while Alpha was quarantined and sealed. Wily seeks to release Alpha in the third game, in which everything by then had some sort of link to the internet, to destroy the world."


 * Blob Monster: fans think that he's the Expy to the Bio-devils from the original series. With good reason, too.
 * Chekhov's Gun: first appeared as a harmless little cube guarded by four doors. In plain sight, even.
 * Desperation Attack: Two of them. One might as well be a Nuke, the other might as well be an electrical BFG.
 * Eldritch Abomination
 * Meaningful Name
 * Sealed Evil in A Can

Gregar (Glaga)
"In the games, Gregar was the original inspiration for Gospel's beast, where Gregar was naturally formed from a mass of bugs in one part of the internet. It resembles a large green wolf, and has ridiculous movement speed unlike the stationary Gospel beast. Gregar often clashed with Falzar, causing extreme damage to the net, and both were eventually sealed within the Underground areas located near Central Area 3. In the sixth game, the seal is broken and Gregar is revived by Circusman, and depending on the version, Gregar is either captured by Circusman or absorbed by Mega Man."


 * Big Badass Wolf
 * Breath Weapon: Breathes fire in a large area.
 * Call Back: Gospel and Gregar have highly similar origins.
 * : With in the anime.
 * Sealed Evil in A Can
 * Shock and Awe: One of its most dangerous attacks involves an electrical beam breath that hits the entire front row and the entire column in front of it. If Mega Man is struck by this attack, he'll be stunned and left wide open to a variety of other attacks.
 * Super-Powered Evil Side: If he's the one Megaman contains.

Falzar (Falzer)
"In the games, Falzar was created by Mayor Cain in order to fight and defeat Gregar. This backfired and caused even more damage to the net. Falzar's design is like a phoenix, and uses appropriate wind and fire-based attacks. Both Falzar and Gregar were eventually sealed within the Underground areas located near Centeral Area 3. In the sixth game, the seal is broken and Falzer is revived by Circusman, and depending on the version, Falzar is either captured by Circusman or absorbed by Mega Man."


 * Big Badass Bird of Prey
 * Death From Above: One of Falzar's signature attacks involves it flying into the air out of range of any attacks, and flapping its wings to generate wind that sends Mega Man to the back row while trying to hit him with its loose sharp feathers.
 * Desperation Attack: Same as above, although replace the wind and feather part with "suddenly rushing down the column and trying to slice MegaMan's head off".
 * : With in the anime.
 * Giant Flyer
 * Godzilla Threshold: Probably the reasoning behind it's creation.
 * Laser Guided Tykebomb: was created for the purpose of defeating Gregar. Big mistake.
 * Sealed Evil in A Can
 * Super-Powered Evil Side: If he's the one Megaman contains.
