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[edit]
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[edit]
Warbonnet is often the designated "rival" Medarot, used by Kouji in the Kuwagata versions. Its counterpart in the Kabuto versions is the sabertooth tiger-type, Smilodonad.
In Medarot 2[edit]
It appears as Kouji's first Medarot in the Kuwagata versions. Later, he backs up Warbonnet with Sakura-chan.
Strategy and Tips[edit]
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 be 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 finally his arm parts and use them with the Rabbit Medal if you are playing the Kuwagata Version. You only get to fight Kouji four times during the main story of the game.
In Medarot 2 Parts Collection[edit]
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[edit]
Two Warbonnet are used by Kouji in the Robottle rank 3.
In Medarot 4[edit]
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 is also seen with his Warbonnet stored in his room, as he is now using Unitris.

Robattle 3D[edit]

In Medarot 2 CORE[edit]
It reprises it's role as Kouji's main Medarot in the Kuwagata version of the game.
In this game, Warbonnet's legs have the highest evasion of all dual-legged parts that are compatible with the Kabuto Medal, tied with Ambiguous.
In Medarot 8[edit]
Warbonnet makes a reappearance in Medarot 8 as a DLC-exclusive Medarot. It appears along with Smilodonad, Cyandog, and Nio-Heiko in the third DLC mission, which can be downloaded for 300 yen ($2.40).
Its model number is now KLN00.
In the anime[edit]
Warbonnet is the Medarot belonging to Victor, apparently having been commanded by him during multiple official robattle tournaments. Warbonnet is a Medarot who possesses a rare Kabuto Medal that allows him to access the Medaforce, though how he gained this Medal is unknown. Warbonnet is a fiercely loyal Medarot, who, as a general rule, displays little to no emotion, but apparently does seem to care somewhat for his owner Victor. Warbonnet is also distinguished as a many-time world champion of multiple World Robottle Championship tournaments.
During the Ten Days of Darkness, Warbonnet (involuntarily) attacked his Medarotter Victor while helping the other Medarots destroy Kenya. After that day, Victor lost trust in Warbonnet, and started to treat him just as a machine rather than a friend. Warbonnet deeply regrets this, and longs for Victor to be his friend again, and so obeys every order in hopes of regaining this forgotten trust.[1]
