Ground Scaravich

"Well, well, well... What have we here... Why, it's Officer X. This is horrible! Why do I have to face someone like you here?!"

- Ground Scaravich

Ground Scaravich (グランド・スカラビッチ) is a scarab-themed Maverick treasure hunter. He decided to research an ancient site from which he discovered a lot of data on ancient robots. Gate assisted him in exchange for the ancient data to improved his knowledge. When Gate sent him to a forbidden area, Alia intercepted and disposed of him. She felt bad for doing this, but Gate appeared to not have cared about what happened to him. He was later resurrected by Gate in Mega Man X6 as part of his Nightmare Investigation team. He was sent to the Central Museum to examine the Nightmare, where he was confronted by the Maverick Hunters in the Main Hall. He got scared at the start, but decided to fight them to obtain their DNA data and was destroyed. He's most vulnerable to the Yammar Option. As Zero, you can also use the Z-Buster to destroy his rocks, although it causes him to run off-screen to get another one.

When Playing as X
X: Ground Scaravich! You must be the burglar of ruins! What are you doing here?

Ground Scaravich: Well, well, well... What have we here... Why, it's Officer X. This is horrible! Why do I have to face someone like you here?!

X: Be a smart Reploid and give me the Information on the Nightmares.

Ground Scaravich: I'd rather just see what DNA data you have!

When Playing as Zero
Zero: Ground Scaravich! Why do you need to steal from another ruin? Hmm... You seem to be very close to the Nightmares...

Ground Scaravich: I am cursed, I know it! You are Zero. I heard you were dead. I really wanted to obtain your DNA data, but I no longer need it.

Zero: What do you mean?

Ground Scaravich: You can fight me to find out!

Trivia

 * Coincidentally, three of the four beetle-themed Mavericks in the Mega Man X series - Boomer Kuwanger (stag beetle), Gravity Beetle (rhinoceros beetle) and Ground Scaravich himself (dung beetle) - are in fact scarabs. This leaves only Izzy Glow (firefly) as a non-scarab beetle, and is the only instance where so many of a certain Maverick theme (beetles, fish, cats, etc.) have all been of such a specific grouping.
 * In their character artwork, Izzy Glow and Ground Scaravich are both depicted holding the ends of their mustache-like growth on their mouths.
