Dynamo

"You can't retire me no matter how hard you try... I'll give you a little advice... You... Sigma... Everybody is always too hot when they fight. But not me. I am the coolest and wisest of all. If you can't understand, then I'll just have to show you. Come on and fight me!"

- Dynamo

Dynamo (ダイナモ) (not to be confused with Dynamo Man in the classic series) first appeared in Mega Man X5; he was sent by Sigma to knock Eurasia out of orbit. He appears twice--in both cases to interfere with the mission (whether it's getting the Enigma ready or preparing the Shuttle).

Dynamo appears again as a secret boss in Mega Man X6, in the Soul areas after Gate's Lab is unlocked and defeating both Nightmare Zero and High Max. Being struck by Rainy Turtloid's weapon causes him to be stunned and a follow-up hit from it makes him drop 200 Nightmare Souls, for a maximum of 600 per fight. Dynamo is a powerful, defensive, and fast opponent, although the ability obtained by Zero from the aforementioned boss easily makes short work of him. The pre-battle dialogue in X6 shows that he is interested in the power of the Nightmare Souls and how they can make him strong enough to defeat X and Zero.

Dynamo can always be fought every time the player visits any of the Nightmare Areas, allowing X or Zero (or both) to quickly farm Nightmare Souls.

It is unclear why Dynamo is absent in Mega Man X7 and X8, however, it is possible that he is alive and hiding somewhere.

X5 Attacks

 * Dynamo jumps up and shoots a Buster straight down. The blast will split when it reaches your horizontal level and the 2 new blasts will move horizontally until they leave the arena.
 * Dynamo jumps to the edge of the arena and charges energy in his hand. He then slams his fist into the ground 3 times. Similarly to Zero's Giga Attack in X6, lasers will fall from the sky to the floor between each fist slam. 2 patterns arise in this move, A) Alternating areas of laser and open space and B) half the arena with lasers, half without.
 * Dynamo jumps up and quickly swings his saber downward at the player.
 * Dynamo spins his saber and uses it as a shield.
 * Dynamo throws his saber at your current location and it boomerangs back to him.

X6 Attacks

 * Dynamo jumps to one side of the screen and punches the ground causing lasers to shoot up in front of him.
 * Dynamo spins his saber in front of him and fires multiple spinning sabers, which can either come or don't come back or follow the player.
 * Dynamo jumps up and swings his saber downward at the player.
