Pseudoroid
This article is a stub. You can help Mega Man Wiki by expanding it.
A Pseudoroid, known as a Falseroid (フォルスロイド) in Japan, is a kind of Reploid appearing in the ZX era. They are animal or plant-inspired Reploids who use the power of Biometal stored in their bodies, despite not having technically been chosen as Mega Men.
In the Games
Mega Man ZX
Name | Portrait | Element | Weakness |
---|---|---|---|
Hivolt the Raptoroid | Thunder | Ice | |

Psuedoroids debuted in Mega Man ZX. The game's eight Pseudoroid bosses are executive officers of Slither Inc., being intensely loyal to Serpent and working to advance Project Haven. Their exact origins are unclear; Fistleo the Predatoroid and Purprill the Mandroid both mention having lives before meeting Serpent and being given elemental Biometal powers by him.[1][2]
Each Pseudoroid stores a fragment from one of the game's four Biometal — Model H, Model L, Model F, or Model P — and defeating each one lets the player take their Biometal to use for themselves.

Psuedoroids return in Mega Man ZX Advent. This group of Pseudoroids are servants of Albert, working to awaken Model W and advance the Game of Destiny. They have a leader, Bifrost the Crocoroid, who reports directly to Albert.[3] These Pseudoroids each contain a fragment of Model W, granting them elemental abilities.[4] After defeating each one, Model A copies their DNA data and can mimic their forms at will.
Several Hunters at Hunter's Camp imply that Pseudoroids are naturally created by Model W itself. Carley says that some Hunters hunt powerful Pseudoroids to test their abilities,[5] and Ward says that Pseudoroids can be created and/or resurrected by Model W.[6]
