heres a little more about it -The Story of Medabots- (2a)

For those not familiar with Medabots, let me start by saying this isn't a
Pokemon ripoff. Actually, the original Medabots series came out just a few
short months after Pokemon did, making it awfully less inspired-by Pokemon
than most of the common "kid raises pet monster" series that we see saturating
the market today.

If anything, this series is probably one of the more major inspirations for
the now classic series "Rockman EXE", better known in the US as MegaMan Battle
Network. Unlike Pokemon, which can only really change their fighting styles by
evolution, Medabots can instantly change their fighting styles by adding new
parts to their body. Think of this as a cross between Custom Robo and the
classic childrens' toy Mr. Potato Head.

Medabots is a very family-friendly anime that manages to cater to a wide
variety of interests and remain very gender-neutral, being entertaining enough
to hold an adult's interest (my father, who is around forty-five years old,
loves the Medabots anime, and my mother, who doesn't often sit still to watch
more than maybe five minutes of anime at a time can name several of the
characters instantly on sight) while being captivating and colorful enough to
keep children entertained. The series teaches many basic morals and ethics for
kids such as being kind to others, befriending people who are bullied, sharing
with those less fortunate, tolerance of those who are different, the
consequences of crime, etc.

It has relatively little violence in it for a children's series (primarily
just the robot fights) and it's understood that nobody ever dies or is
injured-- the robots in the series show good sportsmanship in fighting and
each fight is overseen by a referee who encourages fairness and honor in all
battles.

The series basically involves humans or "Medafighters" who buy and train
female and male robots (collectively referred to as "Medabots") to fight in
events referred to as "Robattles". The premise is basically to beat your
opponent (also a Medabot, trained by another Medafighter) into submission
using a variety of cool attacks and moves.

If you've never heard of or played Medabots before, there's a popular TV anime
that this game is based on. I highly recommend you purchasing and viewing at
least the first few episodes (it's on DVD and VHS, available from ADV Films
through online stores such as Amazon) to get familiarized with the series.

You may also want to play the prequel to this game; Medabots: Gold (METABEE)
or Medabots: Silver (ROKUSHO) for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance. They are
worthwhile investments, since they can be used to uncover a special item at
the end of the game (more on this later).

-The Characters- (2b)

IKKI

Ikki (not Ikky, Icky, Ikke, or any other typographical nonsense) is the main
character of Medabots as a series, at least in the United States.

His overall personality is that of your average grade schooler; he appears to
be a fairly brash, fairly outspoken kid who enjoys playing and goofing off
more than doing actual work. He acts like a know-it-all in the field of
Medabots, being very well-read on the subject and having enough knowledge to
be writing this FAQ himself. (I'd kinda like it if he would, too...)

However, his obnoxious persona is just a front he puts up. Deep inside, Ikki
has enough courage and valor for an entire army of soldiers. He's caring,
brave, and willing to put his life on the line for any one of his friends if
he knows they need it. He has a humorous relationship with his Medabot,
Metabee-- they act like true brothers, cascading back and forth between best
pals and total enemies. When it comes to others messing with Metabee, though,
Ikki draws the line. He'd take bullets for his Medabot if he knew there was a
chance Metabee wouldn't recover from the blow.

METABEE

Metabee is arrogant and self-centered most of the time one talks to him, but
he has a strong sense of justice and isn't about to let other people be
bullied, or worse, bully themselves. Metabee tolerates Ikki to an extent; so
long as Ikki understands his place and doesn't annoy him by acting superior.
However, Metabee also understands the importance of friendship very well, and
defends Ikki staunchly.

There's more to Metabee than just his arrogant persona, however. He has a good
relationship with Brass, Arika's Medabot, and has a friendly rivalry with
Roks, Koji's Medabot. Metabee takes it upon himself to be the helper of weak
Medabots (as evidenced in the anime with Komandog and Cyandog, and in this
specific game, Jaxy) and is too happy to share his experience whenever he gets
the opportunity.

ARIKA

Arika (whose name is consistently spelled throughout the US series as "Erika",
but I prefer the Japanese pronunciation AND spelling for it, so I'll refer to
her by her original name, thank you) is the obligatory non-stereotypical
female lead, Ikki's best human friend and partner-in-crime (as well as
potential love interest), and aspiring young photo-journalist.

Consistently on the trail of her next big scoop, Arika follows Ikki around
with a camera and notebook; knowing that her heroic friend is a source of good
stories-- as long as there's nothing else around. Arika is hot-headed and
fiesty, which is a perfect flame for the dynamite that is Ikki's blunt,
sarcastic personality. The two often butt heads like true rivals, but deep
inside Arika knows she loves Ikki more than anyone in the world-- but she
wouldn't admit that if her life depended on it.

Her Medabot is the ever-timid, ever-polite female schoolgirl Medabot known as
Brass (equipped with a second set of armor referred to as Pretty Prime), who
handles Arika's personal affairs like a secretary, and plays cameragirl for
her when Arika's busy on her next story.

KOJI

Koji is the Chaud Blaze to Ikki's Lan Hikari. Pompous, rich, and not afraid to
let you know it, this master Medafighter controls a legion of robots with
ease. Though he operates Sumilidon in the anime effortlessly, and Warbandit in
some of the GBA games, he switches to a new KWG model known as Roks (which is
the series' replacement for Rokusho). For those familiar with the "Kilobot
season" of the anime, Koji is not the same character as Zuru (the "mystery
medafighter" who operates Roks and Tyrellbeetle).

Koji is a true prodigy; he's very rarely beaten in battle, and his talents
aren't mere fluff but rather the result of years of training. Koji's one true
fear is any type of insect, however, slowing him to a crippling halt. It's
unknown if this extends to insect Medabots, but I personally doubt this as
Koji seems to show no fear of his own Medabot, Roks-- a stag beetle type.

Koji has a strong, almost overpowering sense of justice, and in this he
actually gets along with Ikki fairly well. When the two aren't trying to best
each other in a match, they pair up and tear through the bad guys effortlessly
whenever their talents are needed for the side of good.

ROKS

Koji's Roks is a bit different from the Roks in the anime, and radically
different from the legendary Rokusho. Roks is a humble manservant who is
very attentive to Koji's needs. He's not the kind to let Koji be bossed around
easily, and thinks of himself as a bodyguard of sorts. Roks isn't as strong as
Metabee, however, but he can hold his own in a battle and views Metabee and
the others as close allies. He speaks with a humble, almost samurai-like
persona.

KARIN

Karin is the perfect visual embodiment of innocence. She is ludicrously
wealthy (even more so than Koji, from what I understand) but not one ounce of
pride is in her entire petite frame. She's truly the perfect girl, being
willing to do literally anything for her friends. Karin is gentle and loving
to a fault; she's easily confused and fairly gullible, but the upside to that
is that she has friends who watch out for her.

Karin suffers from a heart condition that requires her to move slowly and
carefully, and thus Koji trails her through the park a lot at the request of
her parents to make sure she doesn't get sick. Thus, the two are more or less
inseparable. (I secretly think Koji has a crush on Karin.)

Karin's Medabot Neutranurse (or Nurse for short) is equally polite and gentle;
healing Medabots is her specialty, and she does a great job of it.

THE SCREWS

Samantha, Spyke, and Sloan comprise this group of wanna-be tough guys (well,
two guys and one very loud girl).

They're pretty much jerks and cowards, but occasionally show sides of being
good guys if it so benefits them. They're not all bad, and often rush headlong
into danger to help out Ikki, whether they realize it or not.

Their Medabots vary from time to time, but in this game they operate Peppercat
(a cat type Medabot with the ability to stop enemy movements), Krosserdog (a
wolf type Medabot with a specialty in rifle attacks), Totalizer (a tortoise
type Medabot with poor mobility but strong laser attacks), and Kingpharaoh (a
pyramid type Medabot with a wide variety of gravity and napalm attacks).

MAX (AIMFLASH) and JAXY (POTATOBUG)

Two rogue Medabots that have no known operators. I'd normally list them in
with the other Medabots, but they deserve special mention here because they
are both "main characters" throughout the storyline.

Max is modelled after Aimflash, which is a fast-moving camera type Medabot
with several various attacks including a powerful laser weapon. He's a
journalist by nature (it's "in his blood", literally) and agrees to train as
an understudy with Arika. He has a crippling crush on Brass, but gets so shy
that he can't pronounce her name when talking to her. Oh well, that's love for
you. When he's not falling head over heels for the pretty sailor girl, Max's
quick-talking, goofy personality and rapid, nervous movements make him an
interesting character. He has a sincere heart, and an eager willingness to
help, so he befriends Arika easily enough. He has an interesting concept of
family, especially, as he refers to Arika as "sister", and Ikki and Metabee as
"brother Ikki" and "brother Metabee".

Jaxy, on the other hand, isn't nearly as open and outgoing as Max. She's a shy
insect type Medabot with an obviously scarred past. She doesn't talk much
(really, at all) during the first part of the game, and only Karin is able to
get her to say more than a word or two; probably due to her own innocent, shy
nature. Nurse and Karin eventually befriend Jaxy, and through time we learn
that Jaxy has become separated from her owner. Eventually it's revealed that
Jaxy has a near supernatural power; the ability to change into other Medabots.
This power, naturally, isn't something a Medabot develops overnight; and her
vicious, cruel owner comes back from the past, seeking to manipulate the
traumatized robot into playing a part in a violent agenda.

DIRECTOR TUNE

The creator of ToruToru Land, the theme park world in which the game takes
place. Director Tune is a kindly, if not somewhat silly older gentleman with a
love for Medabots and children. He befriends Ikki early on in the game, and
pops by periodically to give the player gifts.

DOCTOR HARU

Apparently a colleague of Tune's, Doctor Haru is a young, slightly eccentric
scientist who develops and researches Medabots. She appears periodically in
the game, searching for a "suspicious Medabot". She's not the overly friendly
type but not blatantly rude either; her personality could best be described as
"all business". She also comes around every now and again to give the player
gifts, though hers are generally only achieved after doing a specific quest.

THE RUBBEROBO GANG

Best described as the comic relief villains of the game, these guys actually
try their hardest to be a major threat, but really are nothing more than a
bunch of goofballs running around causing havoc, wearing gaudy neoprene suits.
They pop in to Robattle Ikki and Metabee constantly, but their Medabots are
off-the-shelf models that aren't very powerful. Their only real strength lies
in their incomprehensible numbers, as without that, they'd be no threat at all.

THE SELECT CORPS

Roughly as effective as the Rubberobo Gang, the Select Corps are the inept
military police stereotypes. They mean well, but just... aren't that good at
their job. Oh well, they're trying, right? Their Medabots are equally clunky,
choosing mostly to go with themes of dinosaurs. In this game, Attack-Tyrano is
the traditional Select Corps Medabot, but I don't seem to recall ever actually
fighting these guys (unlike the GBA RPGs where you fight them roughly every
three seconds whether it's detrimental to the plot or not).

MR. REFEREE

This guy is awesome. He's the referee. What more do you want? He makes sure
you don't cheat, and that's all there is to it. He has a penchant for silly
entrances and overly dramatic speeches
