Copy Mega Man (also known in Japan as Rockman? or just simply Mega Man?) is a major antagonist in Mega Man. He is also a common boss in Mega Man Powered Up (the remake of Mega Man) if you currently play as a Robot Master on his own stage. He is an evil android clone loaded with Mega Man's data, but he is not as real as his original counterpart.
Biography[]
Copy Mega Man appears to be an original appearance but with a hostile expression on his face, a purple scarf around him much similar to Proto Man's, a triangle standing on the apex on his helmet instead of square and energy that is green, not blue (as seen during his corpse's explosion with the pellets coming out).
Likewise, he had joined up with Dr. Wily frequently, using his evil terms appealing to the Robot Masters made by Dr. Light, and yet Cut Man naively thinks he's the real Mega Man (though he doesn't want to take a bait up with a mad scientist).
Before the boss battle, he has a lot of dialogues to each Robot Master and has the letter "W" appeared under his health bar because he is simply a Copy Robot.
Strategy[]
Copy Mega Man engages the battle by using two attack patterns: shooting and sliding. Then right after losing half of his energy, he will perform a charged shots as his special attack that counts. Like the other Robot Masters, he can be invincible during the duration of his powerful attack while charging his Mega Buster and immediately fires at a brief moment. Besides, he always shoots a normal Mega Buster before he begins with a charged attack again.
The Copy Mega Man can also be faced inside Wily Castle by Mega Man himself. His design is tweaked to resemble the blue bomber. If Mega Man comes in his casual form, the Copy Mega Man will be forced to remove his weapons and armour for a fair fight, with his weapon being changed to "Mega Kick".
