Sypnosis[edit]
Beisuke Agata has been camping outside three days straight in order to buy a new Medarot. While he does that, his son Hikaru is playing fetch outside with his dog Bonaparte. Bonaparte brings back a Medal. While Hikaru examines the Medal, his father startles him and gives him the starter kit for the Medarot he purchased.
In a public broadcast, the Select Corps announces that Aliens are heading straight toward Earth.
Hikaru struggles to assemble the Medarot and tired out, decides to step out outside. After he does so, the eyes on his new Metabee light up...
Outside, Hikaru sees his childhood friend Kirara]] bullied by Kubota and Yanma. Hikaru laments he has no way to protect Kirara but nonetheless tries to step in, challenging the two to a battle with Bonaparte. They point out that the rules of Robattle dictate that the loser of a bout must surrender one of their part, something that Hikaru obviously can't do if he has no Medarot to fight with. Unexpectedly, Metabee arrives riding on Bonaparte's back and takes up the challenge.
Yanma's Cyandog shoots at Metabee but finds it difficult to hit such a fast-moving target and borrows an Arm part from Kubota's Yellowturtle. His first Laser strike hits Metabee to destructive results, and Metabee is left frantically dodging his attack. Bonaparte gets worn out and luckily stops right in front of Yanma, triggering Cyandog's safety subroutines and making him cancel his attack. Metabee takes advantage of the opportunity to jump behind him and KOs Cyandog with an uppercut.
Hikaru thanks his new friend for the help, but quickly finds himself and Kirara under fire from Metabee, who is upset at having being left partially-assembled.
Notes[edit]
