Ikki's world is upended when is he targeted by [[Ginkai]], a sadistic and cheating [[Medarotter]] who uses [[Death Medarot]]s. The Death medarots are a new type of medarot who lack emotions and individual personalities due to their generic medals, and who obey orders without questions, including those that ignore the rules of Robattle. The distribution of the Death Medarots is spearheaded by one [[Kokuryuu Kamizake]], a callous young boy. | ||
Kokuryuu hatchs various plots to discredit Ikki and Metabee and destroy Metabee in an effort to prove the superiority of Death Medarots.

Further complicating this situations is the arrival of the [[Mysterious Medarotter]], a skilled individual who is on a quest to destroy all Death Medarots, but whose ruthless methods makes him little better than the Death Medarots he claims to despise. | ||
As the series progresses, various twists and turns upend the conflict. After repeatedly antagonizing Ikki and Metabee, Ginkai renews with his long-buried sense of honor and changes side, dedicating himself to becoming an exemplary Medarotter with his partner [[Arcbeetle-Dash|Arc-Dash]]. The Mysterious Medarotter is revealed to be Ikki's new classmate and son of the Death Medarot's inventor [[Yuuzuru Ozora|Yuuzuru]], who blames the Death Medarots for his strained relationship with his father. | As the series progresses, various twists and turns upend the conflict.

Intrigued by Metabee's power, Kokuryuu designs a new Death Medarot named [[Blackbeetle]].

Unlike other of her kinds, Blackbeetle is equipped with an experimental [[Medal]] that gives her a personality and emotions, though Kokuryuu treats her as just as disposable as his other creations. Eventually, he puts her medal into the extremely powerful and experimental model [[Grain]], whose power requirements are far too much for her medal to handle. Ikki, Ginkai, Yuuzuru and their medarots go to the [[Death Medarot Company]] HQ to rescue Blackbeetle and a fight ensues, which ends in a destructive fire. The Medarots and Blackbeetle team up to rescue a trapped Kokuryuu. Touched by their actions, Kokuryuu renounces his ways and finally accepts Blackbeetle as his friend. | ||
