This page describes the Medarot model found in Medarot DS, 7, and 8. For other Metabee models, see Metabee. For information on the character itself, see Metabee (character).

Metabee (メタビー), short for Metal Beetle (メタル・ビートル), is the original rhino beetle-type Medarot. The model number KBT00-M specifically refers to the version of Metabee that appears in Medarot DS and all subsequent games.

Description

Although essentially the same model of Medarot, this version of Metabee can be distinguished from the versions used by Hikaru and Ikki by its lighter yellow/orange body (similar to KBT-1) combined with the ends of its shoulder pieces being colored white or pale yellow (much like KBT-0). The names for its head and arm parts have been changed to Meta-Missile, Meta-Revolver, and Meta-Machinegun, but its leg part name is unchanged.

Unlike previous versions of Metabee, KBT00-M favors its left arm's machine gun for fast, light attacks, and uses its right arm for more carefully aimed shots, making it "left-handed" in comparison to other Metabee models.

In the games

This version of Metabee is the player's starter Medarot in the Kabuto versions of Medarot DS, 7, 8, and Dual. It can only be obtained in the Kuwagata version by trading parts or by winning link battles.

Like other versions of Metabee, it has a Missile attack on its head, Rifle on its right arm, and Gatling on its left. However, its left arm now uses the Shoot skill, while its right arm Rifle is more powerful and uses Snipe.

In Medarot DS

At the beginning of the game, after Azuma sees his friends Chitose and Taruto defeated by The Willows, his dog leads him home and points him to a Kabuto Medal sitting in his dad's office. Azuma decides to borrow the Medal, and quickly runs off to purchase a Tinpet and parts from Ikki, who works at the local convenience store. Although Azuma doesn't have quite enough money, Ikki makes an exception and sells him Metabee's parts at a discount after seeing the Medal he brought with him. After being shown how to assemble his new Medarot, Azuma runs back to the park to win back Chitose and Taruto's parts.

In Medarot 7

In contrast to Medarot DS, Azuma receives Metabee along with a Tinpet and a Kabuto Medal in a package sent from his father, who is working away from home. Azuma assembles it on his own, but finds that it still doesn't work, so he takes it to Ikki at the local convenience store who helps him update his Medarotch App and shows him the basics of how to Robottle.

In Medarot Dual

Metabee is first introduced as the Medarot the player must use for their MMF qualification test. After you pass the test and join the MMF, he is assigned to you as your partner Medarot, despite his complaints about being paired up with a beginner.
