This page describes the Medarot model found in Medarot 2, 3, 4, and 2 CORE. For other Metabee models, see Metabee. For information on the character itself, see Metabee (character).

Metabee (メタビー) is the original KBT-model Medarot, based on a rhinoceros beetle. Specifically, KBT-1 refers to the slightly updated version used by Ikki Tenryou in Medarot 2.

Description

As a KBT-type Medarot, Metabee is naturally suited to the Kabuto Medal and specializes in shooting attacks. Like its predecessor KBT-0, Metabee's head resembles that of a rhino beetle with its single split-ended horn. It also features a much brighter color scheme than the older Medarot.

Metabee's attack style revolves around its many styles of shooting weapons. The Head part contains a Missile with perfect accuracy and high power. The Right Arm uses a semi-automatic Rifle for quick and accurate strikes. The Left Arm features a rapid-fire Gatling for heavy assault. And its bipedal are perfect for dominating Grass and Forest battlefields.

In the games

In Medarot 2

During the events of Medarot 2, Metabee is Ikki's first Medarot, given to him by Hikaru Agata who sells Ikki a Tinpet and parts instead of a Retort Curry after his mother sends him to the store with a sum of money. However, despite his best efforts, he can't make Metabee work, as he was given no accompanying medal. After his subsequent scolding by his mom, his father brings him back a Kabuto Medal, who unbeknownst to Ikki, had been given to his father by the elusive Phantom Retort.

In this game, Metabee's model number is KBT-0, the same as Hikaru's Metabee.

In Medarot 3

In the events of Medarot 3, Metabee appears as a default character in the game, already in the ownership of Ikki. Shortly after his parts are upgraded and replaced by the new KBT-30 Saikachis series Medaparts.

In Medarot 4

Metabee doesn't appear as the character's main Medarot (it must be traded from Medarot 3), as Ikki already upgraded Metabee to Saikachis. But it does appears as an opponent Medarot. One example of this is a scientist in the Medarot Corporation who has a Metabee with a King Medal.

In Medabots AX

In Medarot 2 Core

As these games are a remake of the Medarot 2 games, the context where Metabee is a character is the same as in Medarot 2: sold to Ikki while appropriating his dinner money. The only major difference is that his serial number is correctly stated as KBT-1.

In the anime

Main Article:Metabee (character)

In the television series, Metabee is a KBT-type Medarot belonging to Ikki Tenryou, specializing in projectile weaponry and revolver tactics. Although outdated, he also possesses a rare Kabuto Medal which grants him to access the Medaforce. He is known to be quite aggressive and stubborn, and often causes problems due to his headstrong personality. He is often disobedient to his owner Ikki, but shares a close bond with him, and so, Ikki trusts him deeply.

As Metabee is a Beetle type Medarot, like others of his attribute, he has a passion for watermelons, as revealed by Hikaru after he attempts to bait Metabee with the said fruit. Personality wise, Metabee is headstrong and often extremely arrogant and overconfident, but until he learned how to be nice to people and always loyal to his friends, even when he would rather leave them to their own punishments. His stubbornness amd refusal to give in are key aspects of his character.

In the Medarot Damashii season, Ikki changes Metabee's parts to the new Medachange-capable Saikachis model, while keeping his name the same.
