'''Arcbeetle-Dash''' (アークビートル・ダッシュ or アークビートルD) is a hercules beetle-type [[Medarot]], similar to [[Arcbeetle]] but capable of performing a [[Medachange]]. Arcbeetle-Dash appears in the [[Medarot Damashii|Medarot Damashii anime]], where it is the [[Medarot]] used by [[Ginkai]].

== Description ==

Similar to [[Arcbeetle]], Arcbeetle-Dash's head part isn't compatible with the same [[Medal]] its other [[Parts]] are, but it can still deal a huge amount of damage. It is weaker than Arcbeetle's ''Prominence'', but it allows one usage more. Also, Arcbeetle's ''Prominence'' is a [[Beam]] attack, whilst Arcbeetle-Dash's ''Appendix'' is a [[Laser]] attack. All of Arc-Dash's other parts are weaker aswell, but the advantage is it allows Arc-Dash to [[Medachange]] into a car-like form.

== In the games ==

=== In Medarot 4 ===

It appears as one of the [[Medarot]]s controlled by the [[Phantom Renegade]], among others. It is principally seen when Phantom Renegade has [[Red Matador]] and [[Pii]] as Medarots in the Robottle simulator at Ryuutou. It appears with a Kabuto Medal.

=== In Medarot Navi ===

Its model number is now KBT-7BX. In Kabuto Version it is used by [[Rintarou]] during the postgame chapters; Kuwagata Version sees him using [[Tyrrellbeetle]] instead.

Visually, Arc-Dash's Appendix head has a "sight" on its upper pylon that is absent on [[Arcbeetle]]'s Prominence.

=== In Medarot 8 ===

Arcbeetle-Dash makes a reappearance in [[Medarot 8]] as a DLC-exclusive [[Medarot]]. It appears along with [[Titanbeetle]], [[Heal Angel]], and [[Nio-Kaiko]] in the second DLC mission, which can be downloaded for 300 yen ($2.40).

Its model number is now KBT06-C and the "C" signify having a [[Medachange]].

== In the anime ==

Arcbeetle-Dash is first introduced with [[Tyrrellbeetle]] as prototypes at the [[Medarot Corporation]], where [[Ikki]] and [[Yuuzuru]] are allowed to try them out with [[Metabee]]’s and [[DonDoguu]]’s medals, respectively. Metabee finds Arcbeetle-Dash's body to be extremely heavy and difficult to move properly, resulting in extremely clumsy performance during the test. Later, the two Medarots were offered as a prize in a tournament, where they were won by [[Ginkai]]. After Ginkai realized the importance of friendship and true partnership with Medarots, he decided to reuse his old [[Bayonit]]'s [[Kabuto Medal]] in the new Arcbeetle-Dash body, giving the Medarot the name "Arc-Dash." After Yuuzuru, in the guise of the Mystery Medafighter, helped Ginkai out, he gave Tyrrellbeetle to him. Later on, during important battles, the two of them occasionally combined the Medarots into [[Masterbeetle]].

He is quite like [[Metabee]], who doesn't take orders from anyone: stubborn, hot-tempered, loyal, and a good friend. He is in love with [[Peppercat]] (a feeling that seems to be mutual), even going so far as to hitting [[Blackbeetle]] dead-on with the [[Medaforce]] just for damaging her body and ceasing her functions. He has a rare medal, and, as such, has access to the Medaforce.

He is voiced by [[Phil McCordic]] in the english dub.
