SharkMan.EXE

SharkMan.EXE is the NetNavi operated by Masa or by his alter ego Commander Beef in the anime. SharkMan.EXE is quite powerful, with the attack "Fin Cutter". In the anime, he is only seen when Masa is under the alias of Commander Beef, as Masa has denied having a Navi.

Description
SharkMan looks, of course, like a shark, but has no tail and instead has two legs, on which he can stand and fight. He is not a particularly large Net Navi, and his hunched back makes him look even smaller. But he is powerful, and in Episode 5 of MegaMan NT Warrior, when encountering MegaMan.EXE and Glide.EXE, he leaves a good impression on them, with MegaMan telling Glyde that he thought that SharkMan "was only a legend". His main attack is fin cutter in both the game and the animated series.

SharkMan first appears when the WWW organization opens the locks at the aquarium, allowing all of the robot fish to escape. Glyde and MegaMan try to stop it, but they are overwhelmed by a Jellyfish virus. However, SharkMan helps them defeat it by weakening it as MegaMan uses an ElecSword recieved from Commander Beef/ Masa. Apparently, he is known as a legend in the Cyber World.

In the beginning of the N1 Grand Prix, Masa (under his alter ego of Commander Beef) enters SharkMan into the competition. He stalls his match against WhaleMan to allow Lan to master the Program Advance. Later, he and MegaMan go into a tag team Netbattle against StoneMan.EXE and BombMan.EXE near the final stages of the tournament. During the battle, SharkMan loses so that MegaMan can advance to the next round.

SharkMan later appears with Commander Beef in his various heroics usually along iwth WoodMan.EXE and SkullMan.EXE. Some involve being turned to stone fighting PharaohMan.EXE. Another results in his absorption by the Gospel (Bug Beast) and being subsequently revived.
