Quint

Quint (クイント) is Mega Man from the future that was captured and remodeled by Dr. Wily to fight against himself in the present. His main weapon is Sakugarne, a digging machine that looks like a combination of a pogo-stick and jackhammer.

History
Dr. Wily broke into the Chronos Institute and stole the Time Skimmer, a time travelling device. Using it, he travels several years into the future, where he finds Mega Man living in peace and kidnaps him, reprogramming him into Quint. Wily arms Quint with the Sakugarne, a jackhammer-type weapon that turns ground fragments it digs up into deadly projectiles. Mega Man fights against Quint during the events of Mega Man II, and Quint escapes after the battle. Mega Man faces him again inside the Wily Star in Mega Man V, but it's unknown if that's the original Quint or a copy, as several inactive copies of him and the Mega Man Killers can be seen in the Wily Star.

Quint also appeared as a card in the game RockBoard, where he uses Sakugarne to modify one of the opponent's buildings.

Note: Quint is not the same as R-Shadow from Rockman and Forte: Challenger From the Future, who turns out to be a prototype robot constructed by Dr. Wily using future technology.

Trivia

 * "Quint" is a play off of the musical term "Quintet."
 * In the European instruction manual of Mega Man II, it's said Wily travelled 37426 years in the future with the Time Skipper, which is inaccurate as it's beyond later series like Mega Man X, and it's unlikely Mega Man would still be active after this time.
 * Other manuals suggest that Dr. Wily traveled 37.426 years into the future (mid-21st century), where Mega Man was living in peace. This would suggest the "Wily Wars" were over by then. However, Mega Man's kidnapping and taking back to the "present" could be an explanation for why he is absent in the future (if Quint is, in fact, Rock).
 * It is speculated by fans that Quint could be another Mega Man (like Copy Robot and Mega Man?), a similar character like Proto Man, or a robot created by Wily said to be Mega Man from the future to fool him in the present time of the series.
 * he is the only Mega man Killer who didn't appear in Mega man 10, could be due the fact that he was send to the future again.
