Captain N: The Game Master

Trivia

 * His Japanese name, "dokurobotto", is actually the combination of two words -- "dokuro", which means "skull", and "robotto", which means "robot". The name basically translates to "skull robot," though the joke was lost in translation and resulted in the name "Doc Robot".


 * The devices seen attached to Doc Robot at various places are what may be a buster on his right arm, a Quick-Boomerang launcher on his left wrist, and a copy of Bubble Man's Bubble Lead and Crash Man's Crash Bomber module on his back.


 * Doc Robot is one of the few copy-characters in the Mega Man franchise (besides the Weapons Archive, and Lumine from the Mega Man X series), who not only can copy and use the abilities/weapons/movesets of another, but does not change shape to the person that which they are mimicking while doing so.
