'''Dorcus''' (ドークス), known in English as '''Roks''', is a stag beetle-type [[Medarot]] that first appeared in [[Medarot 3]] and is an upgrade to [[Rokusho]]. His name was taken from the scientific name of Antaeus Giant Stag Beetle (''Dorcus anteaus)'' 

== Description ==

Dorcus is a Medarot similar to a Stag Beetle. Being a KWG-type, it is mostly focused on grappling and scanning techniques, which makes it suitable to wear grapple-based [[Medal|medals]], specially the [[Kuwagata Medal|Kuwagata]] one. However, his [[Medachange|medachange]] form allows it to also shoot both antiair and antisea missiles to its opponents, and it can also move effectively in rough terrains.

== In the games ==

''Note:'' In Medarot 3 and 4 stats, including Medachange, a stat listed as ''a / b'' (for example 1 / 2) means that the stat ''a'' belongs to Medarot 3, while the stat ''b'' belongs to Medarot 4.

=== In Medarot 3 ===

Ikki Tenryou appears with Rokusho as his Medarot prior to the Kuwagata version of the game, but soon he replaces his parts with Dorcus's ones, which enable him to perform a Medachange.

}}

=== In Medarot 7 ===
Roks can be obtained in the Kuwagata version of the game. You must defeat the Medal Hunters' Captain [[Ikki Tenryou]], and after winning against him, he will give it to you.

This gives the player two options on upgrading Rokusho.

=== In Medarot 8 ===

The "C" was added at the end of its model number to signify having a [[Medachange]].

== In the anime ==

Dorcus appears as a character in [[Medarot Damashii]], but with no relation to [[Rokusho (Anime)|Rokusho]].

Dorcus is a Medarot who is dedicated to destroy [[Death Medarot]]s. His [[Medarotter]], [[Yuuzuru]], only fights with Dorcus when disguised as the Mystery Medarotter. At one point Yuuzuru replaces Dorcus for the Death Medarot [[Excize]], but [[Ikki]] convinces him to take Dorcus back.
