Rush (program)

Rush (ラッシュ), known as Mole in the English version of MegaMan Battle Network 2, is a character from the MegaMan Battle Network series.

Games
In the games, Rush is a rare enemy in the first two games that appears in the Undernet areas (he only appear in Undernet 6 in MegaMan Battle Network 2). He doesn't attack the player, and every attack done to him causes only 1 HP of damage. Rush acts similar to the Whac-A-Mole game, creating three holes and appearing in one of them. If the player doesn't hit him before he returns to the hole, he will escape the battle.

In MegaMan Battle Network 3 to 6, Rush appears as a program to the Navi Customizer that makes him appear once per battle in multiplayer NetBattles to paralyze opponents that uses the Chips Invisible or Mole.

Also in Battle Network 6, Rush appears when MegaMan uses special treats on orange panels, formng a bridge for the Navi to cross over a gap.

Anime
In the anime MegaMan NT Warrior, Rush has a larger role then the games, being introduced in the last episodes of the first season. Rush is a program that Dr. Hikari installed in Maylu's PET before Lan's friends went to rescue MegaMan. Rush has the ability to produce holes that can make him travel between any part of the net and the real world, and he can make viruses like Mettaurs to appear from the holes to help him. One time, he appears in the real world in a gigantic form and fights a huge virus. Later, ShadeMan.EXE turns him into a Synchro Chip in order to materialize in the real world.

Serious Rush
Serious Rush (ホンキノラッシュ), known as Mole2 outside Japan, is a stronger version of Rush that appear in the WWW Area 3 from MegaMan Battle Network 2. It acts in the same way as the normal Rush, except it can receive any amount of damage. A virus similar to this one appears in the last episode of the second season of the anime.
