DonDoguu (ドンドグー), known in English as Gorem-2, is a doguu (clay figure)-type Medarot that first appeared in the original Medarot game.

Description

DonDoguu's overall design is based heavily on a Japanese doguu, a type of clay figure that was produced in prehistoric Japan. Its greenish-grey coloration and arm designs, meanwhile, come from bronze bells (doutaku) from ancient Japan. DonDoguu is capable of hovering, and its main function is defending against a variety of specialized shooting attacks.

Despite being the first of its series, DonDoguu is named Gorem-2 in the English releases due to its successor OkeDoguu (Gorem) appearing before it in the anime. The name "Gorem" simply comes from "golem".

In the games

DonDoguu is a hover-type Medarot that specializes in Negate Gunpowder in its Medarot 1, 2, R, and 2 Core appearances to defend against Missile and Napalm attacks. From Medarot 4 to Medarot Brave, however, its arms were changed to use Negate Optical and Negate Gravity instead, giving it immunity to all three types of attack and making it much more useful as a defensive Medarot. From Medarot DS onwards, these became the Gunpowder Guard, Optical Guard, and Gravity Guard actions, which are similar but lack the passive effect of making DonDoguu immune to those attacks (the action must be used first).

In Medarot 4

As a nod to their appearances in Medarotter Rintarou, DonDoguu appears used by Mutsuki at Kameyama Elementary School.

In Medarot Navi

DonDoguu reappears with Mutsuki (along with the rest of Rintarou's friends) and will join you in the post-game. Its model number in this game is DGU-0BH.

In Medarot Brave

Quote: I'm now more powerful than ever! Shooting attacks won't bother me, hee hee hee!

In Medarot DS

DonDoguu's head now uses Gunpowder Guard, and its arms now use Gravity Guard and Optic Guard. Its model number in the new format is DGU00-M.

In the anime

In Medarot Damashii, DonDoguu is Yuuzuru Oozora's partner Medarot.
