Saikachis (サイカチス), known in English as Saikachi, is a rhino beetle-type Medarot that first appeared in Medarot 3 and as an upgrade to Metabee. Saikachis also appears as a character in Medarot Damashii, under the name of Metabee. "Saikachis" is from "Saikachimushi", the name for Japanese rhinocerus beetles in south-Kanto district, Japan.

Description

Saikachis is a Medarot similar to a Beetle. Being a KBT type, it is mostly focused on shooting, which makes it suitable to wear shoot-based medals, specially the Kabuto one. However, its Medachange form allows it to also shoot a powerful cannon attack and wear down enemies quickly, and to move easily in terrains like cities and stadiums.

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 Metabee as his Medarot prior to the Kabuto version of the game, but soon he replaces his parts with Saikachis's ones, which enable him to perform a Medachange.

In Medarot 4

Saikachis appears as Ikki's first Medarot in the Kabuto version, already upgraded from Metabee.

Library description: Beetle type Medarot. An expert in strong attacks!

In Medarot Navi

Saikachis is seen in the Kabuto version of Navi, used by Ikki during the postgame; the Kuwagata version sees him using Dorcus instead.

In Medarot Brave

Quote: A containing attack by Right Arm. A counter by Left Arm. Missile to finish! I'm perfect!

Saikachis is seen as owned by Ikki in Medarot Brave. He is the first Medarot the player can acquire.

Template:Parts-MB

In Medarot DS

Its model number is now KBT05-M.

It can only be acquired via an event held between May 27th and June 7th, 2010, or by winning another player via Wifi who uses this Medarot.

In Medarot 8

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

In the anime

Saikachis appears for the first time when Miss Nae gives Ikki new parts for his Metabee. This was because Metabee couldn't fight Ginkai's Gundesperado, a Death Medarot. The fact it was a Death Medarot made its attacking parts useless, and the Medaforce couldn't deal damage, as they are based on feelings and a Death Medarot's medal has no feelings, and thus can't use or receive damage from a Medaforce. Even when keeping his name, Metabee changed his parts to Saikachis ones, which allowed it to perform a Medachange, and now, as a car, it could defeat Gundesperado by making its head hit the ground.

He is voiced by Junko Takeuchi, and in the english dub, by Joe Motiki.
