Goldran is a GWF-model Medarot whose sole appearance is in Medarot Navi. It obsoletes the Silvarion used by Shiden Murasame.

Description

True to its name, Goldran's primary color is a deep yellow with light brown accents. In addition to its canine head with green eyes, both left and right shoulders also feature dog heads, referencing Cerberus the three-headed watchdog of Hades in Greek mythology. Its thick arms each have a three-spotted "paw" on the end; its legs have two "toes" on the end.

In Robottle, Goldran starts off as a close combatant. Both Left and Right Arms feature medium-cost Hammer attacks with middling strength. Its unique Head part contains a Destroy attack to cripple enemy Medarots with a single shot, though it does not often succeed. Its Two Legs are agile on Grass and Forest tiles.

By engaging Power Medachange, Goldran lowers into a four-legged form (conveniently completing the Cerberus analogy as well). All three Drives in this mode are Beam attacks of varying strength and accuracy: Drive-B is accurate but modest in power, Drive-C is strong but often goes wide, and the three-use Drive-A has both high RoS and ludicrous strength.

In the Games

The last Medarot to appear under the command of Shiden, Goldran makes its debut in the Star Leaf research module as a compulsory ally during the Kaiser Beetle or Luminous Stag boss battle. Goldran acts as Shiden's signature Medarot for the remainder of the game and throughout the postgame, giving his Silvarion set to Kasumi.
