''<span style="font-size:11px;">This page describes the Medarot model found in Medarot 1 and Navi. For other Metabee models, see [[Metabee]]. For information on the character itself, see [[Metabee (character)]].</span>
'''Metal Beetle''' (メタル・ビートル) is the original KBT-type [[Medarot]], appearing as [[Hikaru Agata]]'s first Medarot in the manga and Kabuto version of [[Medarot 1]]. It is an older version of [[Ikki Tenryou|Ikki]]'s Medarot, [[Metabee]].  
 
'''Metabee''' (メタビー), short for '''Metal Beetle''' ({{r|メタル・ビートル|Metaru Biitoru}}), is the original rhino beetle-type [[Medarot]], It first appeared as [[Hikaru Agata|Hikaru]]'s partner Medarot in the Kabuto version of [[Medarot 1]].  
 
In the video games, Hikaru's Metabee (listed as KBT-0) is usually distinguished from [[Ikki Tenryou|Ikki]]'s Metabee ([[Metabee (KBT-1)|KBT-1]]), despite them essentially being the same model of Medarot according to the anime and manga series.


== Description ==
== Description ==
Based on a Japanese rhinoceros beetle (or "kabutomushi" in Japanese), Metal Beetle is a well-balanced Medarot that specializes in shooting attacks.


The first of its series, Metabee's design is based on a [[wikipedia:Japanese rhinoceros beetle|Japanese rhinoceros beetle]], with the missile launchers on its head representing the beetle's branching horns. Its color is mainly goldish-brown with white and black accents.
== In the games ==
=== In Medarot ===
In the Kabuto version, Metal Beetle is obtained at the beginning of the game. After finding a [[Kabuto Medal]], dropped by a member of the [[Rubberobo Gang]], Hikaru receives the parts for Metal Beetle from his dad, as part of a "Medarot starter kit" that also includes a [[Tinpet]].


Metabee is a well-balanced Medarot that specializes in shooting attacks, designed to be compatible with the [[Kabuto Medal]]. It has a gun on its right arm designed for speed and accuracy, a machine gun on its left arm for rapid-fire shots, and can fire powerful and accurate tracking missiles from its head part.  
Because it is one of a kind and the player is forced to name their Tinpet, the default name ''Metal Beetle'' is normally never seen.  


This original version of Metabee (KBT-0) can be differentiated from the [[Metabee|later versions]] used by [[Ikki Tenryou|Ikki]] and [[Azuma Amakura|Azuma]] by its darker brown color, and the ends of its shoulder pieces being colored white or yellow instead of black. This "older-style" Metabee has been included in several games past the first one, but usually as more of an Easter egg. Prior to [[Medarot DS]], "KBT-0" could be used to refer to "Hikaru's Metabee".
=== In Medarot 2 ===


== In the games ==
In Medarot 2, Metal Beetle is treated as a seperate Medarot from Ikki's [[Metabee]], despite both of them being numbered KBT-0 in-game. It can be obtained by trading from the original Medarot games.


In the video games, Metabee is exclusive to the Kabuto versions. It's a bipedal Medarot with a variety of shooting attacks: a [[Rifle]] attack on its right arm, a stronger [[Gatling]] attack on its left arm, and a powerful [[Missile]] attack on its head that can [[pierce]] multiple parts.  
Here, rather than being called Metal Beetle, its name becomes "metabee" (めたびー ''metabii'') written in hiragana. Its parts are also written in hiragana to distinguish them from Ikki's Metabee parts, which otherwise would sound the same.


Outside of the original game, this version of Metabee usually has its name and parts written in hiragana letters (akin to writing them in a more cursive font) to seperate it from Ikki's [[Metabee (KBT-1)|KBT-1]] model with the same part names.
=== In Medarot Navi ===


One notable difference between this model and KBT-1 is that its head part (Missile) has the [[Explosive (attribute)|Explosive]] attribute instead of [[Shooting (attribute)|Shooting]], making it only partially compatible with the [[Kabuto Medal]]. This is preserved in its [[Medarot 2]] and [[Medarot R]] appearances, but not in [[Medarot Navi]], where its attributes were all changed to [[Speed (attribute)|Speed]] giving it full compatibility with the Kabuto Medal.  
In this game, Hikaru owns Metal Beetle, which is named in the same way as Medarot 2.


=== In Medarot 1 ===
=== In Medarot DS ===


Metabee is obtained at the beginning of the game in the Kabuto version. After finding a [[Kabuto Medal]] dropped by a member of the [[Rubberobo Gang]], Hikaru receives a [[Tinpet]] and parts for Metabee from his dad as part of a "Medarot starter kit".
It has appeared in the demos. However, his parts are renamed as '''Metamissile''', '''Metarevolver''' and '''Metamachinegun''' (nothing is known about the legs part).


Because it is one-of-a-kind and the game always displays the name of the Tinpet, the default name is never shown during normal gameplay. However, if the player cheats or modifies the game to face an enemy Metabee, it can be seen that the game mistakenly refers to it as "Power Beetle" ({{r|パワービートル|Pawaabiitoru}}). This was corrected in the [[Parts Collection]] games, where it is referred to as "Metal Beetle".

In [[Medarot 2]], the old version of Metabee is treated as a seperate Medarot from the [[Metabee (KBT-1)|KBT-1]] version Ikki uses, although both of them are numbered KBT-0 on the parts list. It can be only obtained by transferring it over from Medarot 1 or the Parts Collection games after clearing the game.
 
Here, rather than being called Metal Beetle (or Power Beetle), its name was changed to "Metabee" ({{r|めたびー|Metabii}}) written in hiragana. Its parts were also written in hiragana to distinguish them from Ikki's new parts, which would otherwise have the same names. Its sprite (pictured right) is different from the new version and more closely resembles its sprite from Medarot 1, most likely as an Easter egg for players who transferred it from the original game.
 
=== In Medarot R ===
 
The original Metabee appears in Medarot R as well, used by the [[Phantom Retort]] and Fake Hikaru.
 
This game re-organized the model numbers in the KBT line, cementing the original Metabee as KBT-0 and [[Metabee (KBT-1)|Ikki's Metabee]] as KBT-1.
 
It's also used by Rintarou in the rank 2 battle.
 
=== In Medarot Navi ===
 
Metabee reappears in the Kabuto version of Medarot Navi as a Medarot used by [[Hikaru Agata|Hikaru]] in the post-game of the Kabuto Version. As Hikaru is only fought once in the postgame (excluding his appearance as the Phantom Retort), the player only has 1 chance per game to obtain one of its Parts.
 
In Medarot Classics Plus you can collect all 4 of Metabee's parts by simply playing Medaron Navi in new game + four times, or beating the game and selecting the Get all parts function. 
 
Its model number is KBT-0BH and its name and part names are written in hiragana, much like the ones found in Medarot 2 and R. Its sprite also has a scratch over one eye to match the appearance of Hikaru's Metabee in the later parts of the [[Medarot (Manga series)|manga series]].

==== Kasumi's Childhood Metabee ====
A Metabee is seen with Kasumi Asano in the Medarot Navi manga, but it is explained that he died being the hero and saving another Medarot from a car accident, but as a result ends up dead.  This fuels Kasumi's attempt to bring him back.
==== Kasumi's new Metabee ====
Kasumi found and loaded a new Kabuto Medal inside his old Metabee, but the new Metabee has a stubborn and reckless personality, which Kasumi doesn't initially didn't like. However, these two become friends and had gone on adventures after being invited to Cluster, with Metabee later using [[Granbeetle]] parts on Cluster.
That Metabee took part in a fight with [[Shiden Murasame|Shiden]] and his  Metabee, but Shiden loses due to his poor strategy, and Kasumi's worlds get Shiden to think later on about his choices.
