Fistleo the Predatoroid

Fistleo the Predatoroid (フィストレオ・ザ・プレデトロイド) is the guardian of the burning city (that he set on fire), Area G.

Characteristics
Fistleo is a lion-style Pseudoroid with a bulky scarlet body evoking the look of a muscular fighter. He also has an orange mane that can ignite itself, green lights on his upper body and clawed hands and feet.

He has a fragment of Biometal Model F inside his head, granting him flame powers, can produce fire with his fists. In battle, he combines this power with his own blend of kenpō named "Reioh-ken" ("Reiouken" in the manga).

A Pseudoroid with a fierce personality, Fistleo is only interested in honing his skills and increasing his strength. He will do anything to gain power, which is the reason he joined Serpent's ranks. He despises weaklings.

Mega Man ZX
Promised the power of a god by Serpent, Fistleo accepted the proposition to be transformed into a Pseudoroid. He received half the data of Biometal Model F, with Flammole receiving the other half. He leads a Maverick assault on Area G, kidnapping people and setting buildings ablaze even though this interferes with his training. He confronts the Mega Man Model ZX expecting a great warrior, but is disappointed to find the Chosen One is still a child. Fistleo is defeated and his half of Model F is taken, but he is later revived for the final battle in Slither Inc.'s head office. Though he loses a second time, he claims that his spirit will continue to fight and believes that by becoming one with Model W, he is finally obtaining the power he sought.

Mega Man ZX Manga
Serpent is angry that Vent managed to defeat Hivolt and Lurerre, but Prometheus comes up with a plan to annihilate both Vent and the Guardians, which where in Area G at the moment. He sends Fistleo and Hurricaune to attack Vent in the city, while Leganchor and Protectos attack the Guardian Base that was docked in the area. In chapter 9, he makes a display of power by tearing an entire building in half with a charged punch before assaulting Vent with fast Reiouken techniques. However, Vent uses the speed of Model HX to turn the tables, finishing him off with the Dual Sabers. .

Power and Abilities
Fistleo can attack with balls of energy that follow their target, and various flame melee attacks such as flaming dashes and air dashes. Curiously, he can also use the power provided to him by Model F to heal himself. He seems obsessed with making himself more powerful, like Fighting Fefnir, the Reploid whose data is contained in Model F. Fistleo is a hand to hand fighter, combining his skills with Model F's power to use a variety of techniques. The Model F data is stored in Fistleo's arms, therefore striking that area will damage the Biometal as well.
