What's up with the X2 Zero in that image?

[Zednanreh]

I have see that screenshot from video. I know it is Megaman. Even though I am not sure if he actual can do it in canon.

I see what are you trying to say.

[Flame]

it's a screenshot from N-Mario's Mega Man vs Zero minigame. (just a boss fight with Zero, nothing more)

also, depends on circumstances here. Evil Zero? Rock would win. Good, Hunter Zero? they wouldnt fight at all, most likely invoking a Duo-like scenario where the fight ends prematurely.

[Zan]

In any battle between Rock and Zero, it would involve the incomplete Zero from X1, in evil form. As such, you're dealing with a battle of technology from the same timeframe: Rock in all his latest upgrades, and the recently completed Zero. As said in Online, Forte can compare with prototypes of modern Repliroids (said prototypes for all intents and purposes happen to be X, Zero and Sigma,. or Axl when speaking of the New Generation), hence the power gap isn't nearly as wide as some people believe.

In addition, Rock will always be favored in his own series by virtue of him being the hero of a children's story.

[ToCool74]

I'd have to go with Zero here simply because of ingame feats and just generally being built newer and better in just about every way for the sole purpose of being able to beat Rock.

[Zan]

Except that never helped Forte, or any other Wily bot.

It 'is' the heart that counts.

[Princess Luna]

I'm saying Zero.
Zero, pre MMX, had the power to fight, and very nearly beat, Sigma, who at the time, was the most Advance Reploid in the world.
Zero would beat Rock, remember that before his upgrade in MMX2, Zero was stronger than X, who was by far stronger than Rock.

I thought Sigma was beat by Zero.

The crystal on Zero's head caused him pain, Sigma took the opportunity to attack it, knocking Zero out (and passing on the maverick virus to Sigma in the process).

Rock would probably blow him away and taunt Wily with, "Your robot needs work. Try again."

*Evil Incomplete Zero

I'd wager Rock could not defeat a fully functional, powerful Zero on his own. Maybe not even an incomplete Zero without assistance of some sort.

[Flame]

You people seem to forget that Power doesnt matter. Forte is far more powerful and far more advanced than Rock, and yet he NEVER wins their duels. Despite having a more advanced AI, despite being fueled by the most powerful energy in the world of 20XX, and despite having all that plus being able to do everything Rock can do, and some things that Rock cant do. Why? because Bass fights for nothing more than his own glory and vanity. He doesnt fight for someone, or for a goal.

Rock fights to protect his family and friends, and for justice. Therefore, he will always win. It's the rule of classic, that Rock, the good guy driven by justice, will prevail over ANY odds. Even Zero. Complete or Incomplete, Rock would win on account that he is the good guy, and in Classic, the good guys always win and save the day.

Sigma, who at the time, was the most Advance Reploid in the world.

That is, only if you dont count X as a Reploid, otherwise X is the most advanced Reploid in the world.

Relevant:


Rockman will always find a way, even if he has to battle so mighty foes, like the Star Rulers, Ra Moon and the Rockman killers. He is the proof that the heart matters more then the body.

[Zan]

It is all too often forgotten that the X-buster is little more than the Rock Buster Mk. 17. With Zero finalized, X too nears completion, and the same strength becomes accessible to Rockman. In other words, Zero is not invincible by any means. That fangame video had to make Zero pull off stunts beyond anything he did as a boss in the X-series, and Rock still came out supreme.

Furthermore, the message of heart over body is not just a Classic-exclusive either; it permeated through the whole ZERO-series. When the darkest of all series in the chronology insists on it being true, how would a mere berserker stand a chance against Rock, the epitome of justice?

[Flame]

Star Rulers are a perfect example actually. wasnt Rock unable to harm them until he got the Super Arm?

Why would Light implement any new technology involving X into Rock? I really don't think he would as X supposed to be a completely new type of robot and technology in general. Might not even be able to interface with Rock's systems. I still believe that the only way Rock could ever prevail is barely, with assistance, and with Zero incomplete. I don't vote for a complete slaughter fest, but I don't think any such battle should end in a "Sailor Moon" fashion. I feel the victory should be very bittersweet somehow, and any such encounter would be the last battle Rock faces before the bridge to the X Series.

[RaviorStygian]

I think it would be satisfying that Rock defeats Zero (like destroys his arms and legs and only leaves a torso behind) and vows to wander the Earth, never fighting again because Zero destroyed Roll, Blues, Bass, or anyone else he ever cared for.

Rock decides to stay Rock and never become Mega Man again, having the thought that it would be his younger brother, X, to take up the responsibility of protecting the planet.

That means Rock would live the rest of his life out as a civilian, living a normal life.

I meant to say most advance Reploid designed by Dr Cain.
Which Sigma was at the time.
Also, which version of Zero are we talking about?
Evil incomplete, Good complete, or MMZ version?
Ether way, Zero is far more intelligent, far more powerful, and far more skilful.

Why would the Rock-buster created by Thomas Right be unusable for Rock? The X-buster is a natural progression (Mk. 17) of the same technology that exists in Rockman, it is NOT a quantum leap in power.
