Shield Sheldon, known as Shieldner Sheldon (シールドナー・シェルダン)[1] in Japan, is a Maverick from the X era, appearing as one of the main bosses in Mega Man X6. He is a shield-themed Reploid based on a clam, who attacks with the energy barriers and the two halves of his shell. He is a former bodyguard who is now part of the Nightmare Investigators.
In the Games
Mega Man X6
Shield Sheldon debuts in Mega Man X6 as one of the eight Mavericks on the Stage Select screen. He was built by Gate for security work, assigned as the bodyguard to a respected scientist named Dr. Jim. One day, Dr. Jim went Maverick and lost control, forcing Sheldon to destroy him to defend himself. The Maverick Hunters assumed Sheldon was the Maverick and labeled him as such, driving him to take his own life. However, he was later resurrected by Gate to serve as a Nightmare Investigator.[2]
Shield Sheldon serves as the boss of the Laser Institute, observing the Nightmare Lasers. He attacks by bouncing his shell around the arena and summoning reflective barriers. Defeating Shield Sheldon grants Guard Shell to both X and Zero. His weakness is the Metal Anchor or Rakukojin from Metal Shark Player, which briefly stuns him. A boss attack rematch with Shield Sheldon later occurs in the ?????? stage.
