'''Warbonnet''' (ウォーバニット), known in English as '''Warbandit''', is a lion-type [[Medarot]] that first appeared in [[Medarot 2]].

== Description ==

Warbonnet is a [[Medarot]] that resembles a lion. As such it has its Shoot Barrel and Range Shooter parts, which aren't very fast but deal a large ammount of damage. To help its speed, it has the Tension Up part that allows it to become much faster.

The name "Warbonnet" refers to the feathered headdresses worn by Native Americans, which its own mane-like headdress is modeled after.

== In the games ==

Warbonnet is often the designated "rival" Medarot, used by [[Kouji Karakuchi|Kouji]] in the Kuwagata versions. Its counterpart in the Kabuto versions is the sabertooth tiger-type, [[Smilodonad]]. 

=== In Medarot 2 ===

It appears as [[Kouji Karakuchi|Kouji]]'s first Medarot in the Kuwagata versions. Later, he backs up Warbonnet with [[Sakura-chan]].

==== Strategy and Tips ====
Warbonnet is in the same boat as Rokusho, having weapon parts for arms and assist functions on his head part.
He always does Boost Charge on the first turn of every Robattle, and then attacks. He is evasive, so Rokusho may not bee enough to beat him with Radar Sight. 

If you're fighting him for the first time, have Rokusho scan twice and then attack.

If you are well into the game, transfer Warbonnet or Bayonet from the parts collection or use your own Warbonnet and use them as a leader in this fight.

If you are trying to build your own Warbonnet, Get his Head Part ''Tension Up'' first. then get his Leg Part Abductor next and use them with the Rabbit Medal if you are playing the Kuwagata Version.

=== In Medarot 2 Parts Collection ===

His parts, with a Kabuto Medal and together with [[Smilodonad]], is one of the first two Medarots the player can obtain on the floor 01 of Fiyun Tower when Ikki chooses the 'Lion' when the Aliens offer Ikki a Medarot.

If not selected this way, Warbonnet and a Kabuto Medal are given to Ikki on the 20th floor of the Fiyun Tower when Ikki beats Kiara under her Retort Lady guise.

=== In Medarot R ===

Two Warbonnet are used by Kouji in the Robottle rank 3.

=== In Medarot 4 ===
Exclusive to the Kuwagata version, [[Smilodonad]] takes its place in the Kabuto version.

The only way to acquire it is through an auction in [[Medaropolis]]. [[Kouji Karakuchi|Kouji]] is also seen with his Warbonnet stored in his room, as he is now using [[Unitris]].

== In the anime ==

Warbonnet is [[Victor]]'s Medarot, known for its participation in multiple official robattle tournaments under Victor's command. Equipped with a rare [[Kabuto Medal]], Warbonnet can access the [[Medaforce]], although how this [[Medal]] was obtained remains a mystery. Despite typically displaying little emotion, Warbonnet is fiercely loyal to Victor and has earned multiple world championships in the World Robottle Championship tournaments. Victor and Warbonnet are members of Team Kenya, alongside [[Isbestja]]'s [[Rhinorush]] and [[Prauda]]'s [[Goriongo]].

During the [[Ten Days of Darkness]], Warbonnet involuntarily attacked Victor while assisting other Medarots in destroying Kenya. This event shattered Victor's trust in Warbonnet, leading him to treat Warbonnet merely as a machine rather than a companion. Warbonnet deeply regrets this loss of trust and yearns for Victor's friendship again, obediently following orders in hopes of restoring their bond.
