Robot
This article is a stub. You can help Mega Man Wiki by expanding it.
A robot (ロボット) is a machine programmed to and capable of carrying out actions automatically.[1] Robots appear in every single era of the Mega Man franchise, debuting in the first Mega Man.
In the Games
Classic era
Robots first appeared in the Classic era. Dr. Light and Dr. Wily are human robotics scientists, together developing advanced robots known as Robot Masters that can mimic human thought. However, the minds and personalities Robot Masters are still dictated by their creation and they are normally incapable of defying the parameters of their programming. This made it so villains such as Dr. Wily could kidnap and reprogram Robot Masters to make them his evil servants.
There are also robots created by non-human entities, such as the Stardroids.
X era
Robots persist throughout the X era, but there is a distinction made between robots: Reploids and Mechaniloids. Reploids possess full free will and can learn and grow just like human beings, while Mechaniloids remain bound to their programming and possess rudimentary personalities at best.
