Mega Man X


 * 105

Mega Man X, known in Japan as Rockman X (ロックマンＸ Rokkuman Ekkusu) or simply known as X for short, is an alternate incarnation of Mega Man and was the character who appeared in Super Smash Flash. His character model was replaced with the original Mega Man in Super Smash Flash 2 but he was originally going to reappear in it.

Character Description
Mega Man X was created by Dr. Thomas Light as the first robot to have the capability to think, feel and act independently. Fearing that X might become a threat to the world (or that the world wasn't prepared for him in the Maverick Hunter X version), Dr. Light sealed X in a capsule to test his circuits. Many years later, Dr. Cain discovered X and was shocked at his design as they were far more complex than anything yet ever seen. Dr. Cain used X's design specifications and mass produced his own robots which would later be called Reploids. However, because of a design flaw, Reploids grew more violent and these violent Reploids were deemed Mavericks. Thus, the human government formed an organization designed to combat these violent Reploids which would be known as the Maverick Hunters. X then joined the Maverick Hunters, becoming part of Sigma's 17th Elite Unit. Due to his hesitation on the battle-field, X remained a B-Class hunter.

In Super Smash Flash
Mega Man X appeared as the only starter character of the Mega Man universe (whose name was incorrectly stated as Megaman, without the X following). All of his attacks involved shooting different beams in a similar way to Samus.

In Super Smash Flash 2
X (again misrepresented as the Classic Mega Man) was originally intended to appear in Super Smash Flash 2 using his Biometal from from Mega Man ZX, but he was completely replaced with Classic Mega Man after a unanimous vote among devs. The only thing known about his appearance was his Final Smash, the Copy X Transformation, which was intended to be a Final Form, unlike the Final Smash of his successor counterpart, which is a Semi-Final Form.
