'''God Emperor''' (ゴッドエンペラー), english name '''Mega Emperor''', is a WEA-type [[Medarot]] modeled after a weapon. It is an upgrade of [[Beast Master]]. As of most WEA-Types, his name has a word that means "leader".

'''God Emperor''' (ゴッドエンペラー), known in English as '''Mega-Emperor''', is a weapon-type Medarot that first appeared in [[Medarot 2]]. Modeled after a mantis shrimp, it is an upgraded version of [[Beast Master]]. God Emperor has appeared in nearly every Medarot game since, making it one of the most recurring Medarots in the series, alongside [[Metabee]] and [[Rokusho]].


== Description ==
== Description ==
Considered one of THE most recurring Medarot in the Medarot universe, this favorited Last Boss from Medarot 2 has appeared in '''EVERY SINGLE MEDAROT GAME''' after its initial introduction in Medarot 2. (Not to mention its downgrade every time it appears) God Emperor is beaten only by Metabee and Rokusho in terms of recurrence.


Interestingly, its model code is WEA, which stands for its motif, WEApon, and is treated as such for almost all media; however, in Medarot 2's official guide, its motif was labeled as "Mantis Shrimp", and as "Last Boss" in Medarot R.
As the definitive weapon-type Medarot, God Emperor is quite intimidating in appearance. It resembles a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantis_shrimp mantis shrimp] more closely than the more robotic-looking [[Beast Master]]. It rests on a base with many small legs, as opposed to a bundle of snake-like projections, and its head features two pairs of antennae, one of which is used to generate its Gravity attacks.
 
In Robattle, God Emperor's role is clear: overwhelming force. It maintains the same basic attack types as Beast Master but uses different specific attacks. The Head part contains a Break weapon with a boosted Rate of Success, giving it a high chance of Critical Hits. The Right Arm can fire Missile attacks that never miss. The Left Arm's Beam shots tear through lesser Medarots and is one of the few Optic parts with Chain Reaction. Its Tank-type legs ensure that no terrain can slow it down and possess the highest combined Proximity and Remoteness of any Medarot legs in Medarot 2 Core.
 
== In the games ==
 
=== In Medarot 2 ===
 
God Emperor is the last resort of Dr. Hebereke, encountered deep in the Roborobo Gang's secret lair under Medarot Island. He has created three of them and, triggering the release of its Limiter, sends them to attack the Phantom Retort. He manages to defeat them with his Metabee or Rokusho (dependent on version).
 
Supposedly disabled, the lead unit suddenly attacks Retort directly, injuring him and revealing his true identity as Hikaru. It turns on Dr. Hebereke as well and, summoning two more to its side, only Ikki remains to face three God Emperors in two consecutive Robottles.
 
Should Ikki manage to win both battles, the crustacean Medarots are beaten for good. [[Kirara Akita|Retort Lady]] commandeers their Medaparts for more peaceful applications.
 
Directly after Hebereke's trio is beaten, Ikki can Robottle [[Primity Baby]], supported by one God Emperor and one [[Armor Paladin]].
 
'''Strategy:'''
 
As a trio of God Emperors is one of the most potent bosses in the entire series, here's a few suggestions to make the battle easier:
 
*Do use:
**[[Tranculi]]'s Appealsound head will seal Medaforce and make them lose their first action.
**Pushover attacks will, if timed during the targets' CHG phase, directly damage their heads and make them forget their actions.
**Confuse them; they may accidentally shoot each other.
**Equip Head and Arm parts from [[Kako Moai]], [[Haniwa Mirror]] and [[OkeDoguu]] to nullify their part attacks.
***Put one part from each onto your Leader, making it invulnerable to everything but Medaforce attacks.
***Or, only use Haniwa and Doguu parts while stealing their Head uses.
***Kabuto Version players can use the Bear, Jellyfish and Tortoise Medals' second Medaforces to absorb their respective attacks. If equipped with parts to cover the other attacks (Moai and Haniwa parts on the Jellyfish Medarot, for example), you will be completely invulnerable for a time.
**Use [[Bankaran]]'s Reflect actions to cancel and counter their attacks.
 
*Do NOT use:
**Berserk and Snipe actions will leave you unable to dodge - or worse, open to criticals.
**Float and Tank legs gain no bonuses on any terrain, even Cyber.
**Many Female parts are targeted by their Medals - Shoot, Strike and Support in particular. Avoid using Pretty Prime's head as a replacement for Bankaran's parts.
 
In the postgame, God Emperor's Medaparts can finally be obtained as part of the Partsun Rally arc. To acquire it, Ikki needs to find its parts hidden in various locations throughout the game:
 
* '''Head:''' After finding some parts, Ikki will walk with Salty who will take him to Medarot Research Institute and find the part for him. Ikki will notice that this location was not in the tips (Due to sabotage by the Screws).
** Alternatively, Ikki can follow the Screws' false trail and fall into their trap at the abandoned factory. If he doesn't take Salty for a walk, he can win the part by defeating the Screws in front of the Medarotters (Medashop).
* '''Right Arm:''' Obtained by defeating a RoboRobo grunt in Omikuji Elementary School.
* '''Left Arm:''' At the Medarot Island stadium, defeat Tequila/Ryo and then Kouji.
* '''Legs:''' It can be purchased at Medalo Department Store (Medamall) after watching the advertisement on TV. An unlimited amount of this part can be purchased as long as the player doesn't leave the purchase screen.
 
After Ikki collects all the parts of the three Medarots, Shiratama will challenge him to a Robattle using these Medarots. Upon defeating Shiratama, Ikki will permanently keep the parts for himself.
 
=== In Medarot R ===


Initially developed and commanded by Dr. Hebereke, and (For some odd reason) later commanded by Kirara. Like its predecessor Beast Master, it shares the basic element and design philosophy of Head=Gravity, Right=Explosive, and Left=Optics. However, the head shoots Break, the right arm shoots Missile, and the left arm shoots Laser, in contrary to Beast Master's Press, Napalm and Beam.
It's a Medarot used by the [[Medal God]] alongside two [[Beast Master]]s in his second battle.


As you may have faced him as the last boss in Medabots, his raw destructive power is unprecedented; High-critical yielding Death Break, Sure-hit Death Missile, Death Sentence known as Death Laser... Although his firepower was DRASTICALLY reduced from his debut, he is bound to strike fear into the hearts of his opponents. . . Right before they are burned down to ashes. Combined with his Medaforce gauge being full at the start of the match, it isn't rare to see players give up on this encounter (not everyone do).
=== In Medarot 3 ===


Regardless, it does feel refreshing to see it self-destruct after using Medaforce Seal and Reflect. Don't be ashamed; It's strategy.
[[Kirara]] has the control of three God Emperors, apparently the ones that caused riot in Medarot 2. The player can get its parts by defeating Kirara (under her ''Retort Lady'' guise). They use her Jack, Witch and Vehicle Medals, whom she calls "Athos", "Porthos" and "Aramis" (the Three Musketeers).
==Strategy==
Use [[Tranculi|Tranculi's]] AppealSound part to seal the medaforce. Diving-type Medarots are recommended, as they have high evasion.


Other strategies include:
=== In Medarot 4 ===
*Use Bug or Virus to lower their aim.
*Use Confusion to make them attack each other.
*Steal the Deathbreak uses.
*Steal the Medaforce.
*Use Shot Trap to damage them (ineffective if all Deathbreak uses are down)
*Use Missile or Napalm to damage them without missing even once.
*Use Reflect to return attacks (Bankaran, not Pretty Prime)
*Use Succulis to steal their speed. OR use Wave or Hold.
*Trip them over to forget the actions.
*Use Flame Tisara's arm.
*One of your allies is immune to any of his attacks.
*Use a part that disables their evade/guard.
*Use Scout to aim better, Conceal to evade better.
*Disable one arm.
*Equip your Multi-Legged Medarot with a Level 30 Alien Medal or Level 60 Bat Medal.
*Use Cross Attack to set a killing blow. USE IT ONLY ON A LEADER!!!!!!
Dos and Don'ts
*Use Shoot, Strike, Heal, Support, Interrupt/Other, Set-Up and Special.
*Don't use Berserk or Snipe.
*Don't equip a female medarot with Shoot, Strike or Support, as each God Emperor targets these parts (they have Kabuto, Kuwagata and Bear Medals)
*It is a must to get Tranculi's head.
*Use Flight, Multi-Leg, Two-Leg, Car or Diving-type Legs.
*Don't use Float or Tank.


== In the anime ==
[[Kirara]] uses 3 of them under her "Retort Lady" guise, and can be fought via the Battle Simulator in Ryuutou School, after defeating [[Orochi]].
The first time it is shown, it is at regular size. It rolls out from a helicopter and attacks everything in its sight, sent by [[Dr. Hebereke]]. It appeared after [[Metabee]] defeated [[Shinsaber]], who interrupted a robattle between Ikki and [[Space Medarotter X]]. After a small robattle, which proved God Emperor too powerful for any Medarot to handle, Hikaru and Arcbeetle "defeated" it, removing its medal manually before falling down a cliff and to the water.


The second time it is shown in a giant version named '''Giant Emperor''' (english name '''Giganko'''), used to cause riot in the city. The [[Select Corp]] tried stopping it, sending their [[Air-Ptera]]s, [[Attack-Tyranno]]s and [[Landbrachio]]s, who made no damage to Giant Emperor. Also, [[Metabee]], [[Rokusho]] and [[Arcbeetle]] used their [[Medaforce|medaforces]] against it, with little result. It was ultimately "defeated" by [[Ikki]] and [[Metabee]], who, illegally, eject its [[Medal|medal]] manually (similar to what Hikaru and Arcbeetle did before). It is capable of changing legs from multi-legged to bipedal, after the Medaforce hit Giant Emperor.
The Right Arm and Head weapons are considered Shoot attacks in Medarot 3, they are now Snipe attacks in Medarot 4.

You get his parts in the Partsun Rally. After you give his parts back to Miss Nae a Researcher comes proclaiming to be the creator of the game and that he is king.He will then fight with God Emperor alongside Wonder Angel and Belzelga.
=== In Medarot Navi ===


In Medarot 2 CORE, God Emperor has the most balanced legs, with the proximity of 19 and remoteness of 18.
Kasumi can battle Kirara during the postgame; she uses God Emperor as her Leader alongside two [[Windclap]] and two [[Viggaria]]. Upon her defeat, she will join your party with God Emperor.
===In Medarot R===
It is a medarot used by Medal God, along with 2 [[Beast Master]].


=== In Medarot 3 and 4 ===
Overall a hard-to-use unit due to the parts' high AP requirements. Although its Break head and Missile arm can be used relatively frequently, the Laser arm requires God Emperor to either stand on a Generator, be given an AP Boost status, or simply have a high enough Medal Level to generate the AP naturally. Forget about the Death Laser if the enemy uses a Generator Down action. In comparison to [[Imagine Kaiser]], it is heavier and less accurate, but more powerful and armored.
It doesn't play a big role, as [[Kirara]] has the control of three God Emperors, apparently the ones that caused riot in Medarot 2 and the only ones in the whole game. The player can get its parts by defeating Kirara (under her ''Retort Lady'' guise).


She calls them "Athos," "Porthos," and "Aramis", after the Three Musketeers. Instead of Kabuto, Kuwagata and Bear Medals, they use Jack, Witch and Vehicle Medals.
The graphics for the arms are on the wrong sides in this game, though the attacks themselves come from the right places.


In Medarot 3, the head and right arm are shooting. But in Medarot 4, they are sniping once again.

===In Medarot Brave===
=== In Medarot 2 Core ===


God Emperor is unlocked by inserting Medarot 2 CORE Kuwagata Version into the Game Boy Advance connected to the Game Cube.
The role of God Emperor is practically identical to that in the original game. However, the scene where Retort Lady retrieves the pieces for more peaceful use is omitted, giving the impression that the three God Emperors were simply destroyed.
 
The Partsun Rally side-quest in this version is identical to the original Medarot 2, including the locations of the God Emperor parts.
 
Notably, there's a bug in this side-quest if the player transfers the Wonder Angel, Belzelga, and/or God Emperor parts early in the game. The game mistakenly interprets that the player acquired these parts through the side-quest, which can cause the quest to end prematurely or not start at all.

=== In Medarot Dual ===
 
Its Medaparts can be obtained through the Medagacha after unlocking the third selection.
 
The player can also fight a modified and amped up God Emperor through the Virtual Challenges number 52, in a snowy battlefield, serving as a throwback to the introduction cutscene of the game where you can see a [[Rokusho]] and a [[Metabee]] teaming up to defeat a massive God Emperor.


The right arm is shooting.

God Emperor (ゴッドエンペラー), known in English as Mega-Emperor, is a weapon-type Medarot that first appeared in Medarot 2. Modeled after a mantis shrimp, it is an upgraded version of Beast Master. God Emperor has appeared in nearly every Medarot game since, making it one of the most recurring Medarots in the series, alongside Metabee and Rokusho.

Description[edit]

As the definitive weapon-type Medarot, God Emperor is quite intimidating in appearance. It resembles a mantis shrimp more closely than the more robotic-looking Beast Master. It rests on a base with many small legs, as opposed to a bundle of snake-like projections, and its head features two pairs of antennae, one of which is used to generate its Gravity attacks.

In Robattle, God Emperor's role is clear: overwhelming force. It maintains the same basic attack types as Beast Master but uses different specific attacks. The Head part contains a Break weapon with a boosted Rate of Success, giving it a high chance of Critical Hits. The Right Arm can fire Missile attacks that never miss. The Left Arm's Beam shots tear through lesser Medarots and is one of the few Optic parts with Chain Reaction. Its Tank-type legs ensure that no terrain can slow it down and possess the highest combined Proximity and Remoteness of any Medarot legs in Medarot 2 Core.

In the games[edit]

In Medarot 2[edit]

God Emperor is the last resort of Dr. Hebereke, encountered deep in the Roborobo Gang's secret lair under Medarot Island. He has created three of them and, triggering the release of its Limiter, sends them to attack the Phantom Retort. He manages to defeat them with his Metabee or Rokusho (dependent on version).

Supposedly disabled, the lead unit suddenly attacks Retort directly, injuring him and revealing his true identity as Hikaru. It turns on Dr. Hebereke as well and, summoning two more to its side, only Ikki remains to face three God Emperors in two consecutive Robottles.

Should Ikki manage to win both battles, the crustacean Medarots are beaten for good. Retort Lady commandeers their Medaparts for more peaceful applications.

Directly after Hebereke's trio is beaten, Ikki can Robottle Primity Baby, supported by one God Emperor and one Armor Paladin.

Strategy:

As a trio of God Emperors is one of the most potent bosses in the entire series, here's a few suggestions to make the battle easier:

  • Do use:
    • Tranculi's Appealsound head will seal Medaforce and make them lose their first action.
    • Pushover attacks will, if timed during the targets' CHG phase, directly damage their heads and make them forget their actions.
    • Confuse them; they may accidentally shoot each other.
    • Equip Head and Arm parts from Kako Moai, Haniwa Mirror and OkeDoguu to nullify their part attacks.
      • Put one part from each onto your Leader, making it invulnerable to everything but Medaforce attacks.
      • Or, only use Haniwa and Doguu parts while stealing their Head uses.
      • Kabuto Version players can use the Bear, Jellyfish and Tortoise Medals' second Medaforces to absorb their respective attacks. If equipped with parts to cover the other attacks (Moai and Haniwa parts on the Jellyfish Medarot, for example), you will be completely invulnerable for a time.
    • Use Bankaran's Reflect actions to cancel and counter their attacks.
  • Do NOT use:
    • Berserk and Snipe actions will leave you unable to dodge - or worse, open to criticals.
    • Float and Tank legs gain no bonuses on any terrain, even Cyber.
    • Many Female parts are targeted by their Medals - Shoot, Strike and Support in particular. Avoid using Pretty Prime's head as a replacement for Bankaran's parts.

In the postgame, God Emperor's Medaparts can finally be obtained as part of the Partsun Rally arc. To acquire it, Ikki needs to find its parts hidden in various locations throughout the game:

  • Head: After finding some parts, Ikki will walk with Salty who will take him to Medarot Research Institute and find the part for him. Ikki will notice that this location was not in the tips (Due to sabotage by the Screws).
    • Alternatively, Ikki can follow the Screws' false trail and fall into their trap at the abandoned factory. If he doesn't take Salty for a walk, he can win the part by defeating the Screws in front of the Medarotters (Medashop).
  • Right Arm: Obtained by defeating a RoboRobo grunt in Omikuji Elementary School.
  • Left Arm: At the Medarot Island stadium, defeat Tequila/Ryo and then Kouji.
  • Legs: It can be purchased at Medalo Department Store (Medamall) after watching the advertisement on TV. An unlimited amount of this part can be purchased as long as the player doesn't leave the purchase screen.

After Ikki collects all the parts of the three Medarots, Shiratama will challenge him to a Robattle using these Medarots. Upon defeating Shiratama, Ikki will permanently keep the parts for himself.

In Medarot R[edit]

It's a Medarot used by the Medal God alongside two Beast Masters in his second battle.

In Medarot 3[edit]

Kirara has the control of three God Emperors, apparently the ones that caused riot in Medarot 2. The player can get its parts by defeating Kirara (under her Retort Lady guise). They use her Jack, Witch and Vehicle Medals, whom she calls "Athos", "Porthos" and "Aramis" (the Three Musketeers).

In Medarot 4[edit]

Kirara uses 3 of them under her "Retort Lady" guise, and can be fought via the Battle Simulator in Ryuutou School, after defeating Orochi.

The Right Arm and Head weapons are considered Shoot attacks in Medarot 3, they are now Snipe attacks in Medarot 4.

In Medarot Navi[edit]

Kasumi can battle Kirara during the postgame; she uses God Emperor as her Leader alongside two Windclap and two Viggaria. Upon her defeat, she will join your party with God Emperor.

Overall a hard-to-use unit due to the parts' high AP requirements. Although its Break head and Missile arm can be used relatively frequently, the Laser arm requires God Emperor to either stand on a Generator, be given an AP Boost status, or simply have a high enough Medal Level to generate the AP naturally. Forget about the Death Laser if the enemy uses a Generator Down action. In comparison to Imagine Kaiser, it is heavier and less accurate, but more powerful and armored.

The graphics for the arms are on the wrong sides in this game, though the attacks themselves come from the right places.

Metabee Shot[edit]

A God Emperor is one of the selectable opponent in Metabee Shot.

In Medabots AX[edit]

God Emperor is Sakekaasu's leader Medarot, while his partner has God Emperor's legs, seen with Hellmet, Kunai and Ninjatou. He uses a Devil Medal.

In Medarot 2 Core[edit]

The role of God Emperor is practically identical to that in the original game. However, the scene where Retort Lady retrieves the pieces for more peaceful use is omitted, giving the impression that the three God Emperors were simply destroyed.

The Partsun Rally side-quest in this version is identical to the original Medarot 2, including the locations of the God Emperor parts.

Notably, there's a bug in this side-quest if the player transfers the Wonder Angel, Belzelga, and/or God Emperor parts early in the game. The game mistakenly interprets that the player acquired these parts through the side-quest, which can cause the quest to end prematurely or not start at all.

In Medarot Brave[edit]

God Emperor is unlocked by inserting Medarot 2 Core Kuwagata Version into the Game Boy Advance connected to the Game Cube.

In Medarot DS[edit]

Its model number is now WEA01-M. It apparently is not available in-game except by the use of Medagacha Coins. He is also unusable in the No Boss rule. The right arm is a Shoot attack instead of Snipe.

Medarot album entry:
Japanese English
ヘベレケはかせがつくった
きゅうきょくのメダロット。
へいきのかたまりとも
いうべき、きょういてきな
はかいのうりょくをもち、
ぜんしんからくりだされる
もうこうのまえには、
チリ1つのこらない。
Dr. Hebereke's ultimate Medarot. A formidable weapon, possessing astonishing destructive power. When it unleashes its attack, nothing is left in its wake.

In Medarot 7[edit]

In Medarot Dual[edit]

Its Medaparts can be obtained through the Medagacha after unlocking the third selection.

The player can also fight a modified and amped up God Emperor through the Virtual Challenges number 52, in a snowy battlefield, serving as a throwback to the introduction cutscene of the game where you can see a Rokusho and a Metabee teaming up to defeat a massive God Emperor.

In the anime[edit]

The first time it is shown, it is at regular size. It rolls out from a helicopter and attacks everything in its sight, sent by Dr. Hebereke. It appeared after Metabee defeated Shinsaber, who interrupted a robattle between Ikki and Space Medarotter X. After a small robattle, which proved God Emperor too powerful for any Medarot to handle, Hikaru and Arcbeetle "defeated" it, removing its medal manually before falling down a cliff and to the water.

The second time it is shown in a giant version named Giant Emperor (english name Giganko), used to cause riot in the city. The Select Corp tried stopping it, sending their Air-Pteras, Attack-Tyrannos and Land-Brachios, who made no damage to Giant Emperor. Also, Metabee, Rokusho and Arcbeetle used their medaforces against it, with little result. It was ultimately "defeated" by Ikki and Metabee, who, illegally, eject its medal manually (similar to what Hikaru and Arcbeetle did before). It is capable of changing legs from multi-legged to bipedal, after the Medaforce hit Giant Emperor.
