―Hodenki, Make a Good Mega Man Level 3

Hodenki is a boss from Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, fought at the end of Weapon Data Center. He is a blue-and-yellow robot built by Dr. Gaberu, capable of summoning a barrier of electrical orbs that can be launched at enemies in various ways. In the level proper, he assumes Mega Man to be one of the robots running amuck in the Data Center itself, and fights him to protect Dr. Gaberu in the next room. After clearing the Wily Stadium, Hodenki appears as an NPC in Tier 12.

Battle

Hodenki has four main attack sets, three of which involve his "Discharge Barrier”:

• He summons his Discharge Barrier, walks along the uneven ground of the battlefield, during which time he jumps when Mega Man shoots. He eventually jumps to the side and fires the four electric orbs one-at-a-time at Mega Man.
• He summons his Discharge Barrier, jumps around the battlefield until he lands at either side (or stays put if he's already there), merges the four electric orbs into one large orb, and fires it straight across. Two pockets of the arena give Mega Man enough room to slide under it.
• He summons his Discharge Barrier, jumps around the battlefield until he lands in the center, then jumps straight up and fires the orbs downward at different angles. When each orb collides with a wall or floor, it creates two small sparks that move like Search Snakes in each direction. After a few seconds, Hodenki will land from his jump.
• He fires three sets of three white bullets - first while jumping back, then standing, then while jumping forward.

Notes

• The name "Hodenki" comes from the Japanese word for "Discharger" (放電器, Hōden-ki).
• Hodenki is not a Robot Master, for all that he may come across as one. His fight in the Limestone Pagoda labels him as an "Unclassified Robot".
