Chill Penguin

"Sigma has paid for the use of my power. Working for him is a million times better than piddling around on the South Pole with nothing to do."

- Chill Penguin

Chill Penguin, known in Japan as Icy Penguigo (アイシー・ペンギーゴ), is one of the Mavericks from Mega Man X based on a penguin. He was a Maverick Hunter from the 13th Polar Region Unit. There was strong animosity between him and Flame Mammoth.

In the OVA, The Day of Σ, he moved to the 17th Elite Unit and was under Sigma's command. During this time, he also led a company within the Elite Unit called "Chill Penguin Company," Identified by the light blue armor-clad humanoid Reploids. When the revolt started, it sounded fun to him, so he joined up to exit from his boring post at the South Pole.

In Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, he is voiced by Dean Galloway, the same voice actor of Dr. Wily in Mega Man Powered Up. Also, in this game it is implied that Chill Penguin's involvement in the rebellion was also in part due to jealousy of X.

Strategy
He occupies the Abandoned Missile Base in the South Pole area, and most players tend to fight him first, as some see him as the easiest Maverick to defeat with the normal weapon, and the Leg Parts are also in the middle of his stage (it's replaced by the Head Part in the remake Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, that can only be obtained with the Leg Parts). The contents of the tank on his back are combustible, so he is easily burnt with Fire Wave, which is also useful against him in the Boss Attack Mode from Mega Man Xtreme 2. Speed Burner works just as well against him in Mega Man Xtreme.

In all games, he shoots ice balls, slides, creates two ice penguin sculptures with his breath (which can also freeze X), and pulls a switch on the ceiling that creates a blizzard to push the ice penguins. When standing face to face or when he stops sliding, is a good opportunity to shoot him a charged shot; he won't create ice penguins when attacked this way either.

Maverick Hunter X Bio
LORD OF THE SNOWY PLAINS

Reploid specifically designed for extremely cold regions, formerly of the 13th Polar Battalion. Had been operating on a wholly unsatisfying mission at the South Pole, but once he heard Sigma's call to rally Reploids, Chill Penguin started operating with the 17th Battalion. His thought circuits are designed to be flexible so he can perform missions with his small-size body, but this has gained him a reputation among other Reploids of being somewhat warped. He's on bad terms with Flame Mammoth, who relies solely on brute strength.

Shotgun Ice

Absorbs moisture in the air and fires it in crystallized form. If it hits an enemy or a hard surface, it breaks into 5 pieces and hits everything around it.

Dialogues from Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X
X: Chill Penguin! Why have you sided with Sigma?

Chill Penguin: Sigma has paid for the use of my power. Working for him is a million times better than piddling around on the South Pole with nothing to do.

X: How could you!? What Sigma's doing is treasonous! 

X: Chill Penguin... Why...!?

Chill Penguin: Why? I wouldn't expect you to understand.

X: ...

Chill Penguin: Just look at you, X... You act so high and mighty... I can't stand it!

Chill Penguin: Vile... I've never seen a Maverick who thought he was a Hunter before.

Vile: Hunter? Ha! I've never once entertained such thoughts.

Chill Penguin: Wah ha! Good answer, but you're still acting crazy. What exactly do you plan to do?

Vile: Same thing I always do... Crush anyone and anything who gets on my bad side! 

Rockman X
In the manga, Chill Penguin is the first Maverick that X fought. He took control of a base from the 13th Polar Region Unit and was making earthquakes to create a avalanche. Marth, the commander of the base and a friend of X, was frozen by Chill Penguin. Chill Penguin has advantage in the beginning, but is surprised by X's abilities and uses Marth as a shield. A earthquake awakened Marth and he gets free from the ice, restraining Chill Penguin so X could use a charge shot, killing both.

Rockman X Mega Mission
In the Carddas, Mega Mission 2, Chill Penguin is revived as "Icy Penguigo L" (Chill Penguin L). His color scheme now consist mainly of red, with yellow, black, white and dark blue highlights. He has two tubes connected to the devices on his back instead of one, and also has design changes to his head and shoulders. He was defeated by X.
