Reggae

Reggae (レゲー) is a bird support robot created by Dr. Wily to make company for him when he was feeling lonely. However, Reggae is very noisy and often annoys Dr. Wily as he constantly laughs at the scientist's blunders. Reggae is based on an Oriental Stork.

Appearances
His main purpose is to laugh at the player, appearing to the player that loses in Wily and Right's RockBoard: That's Paradise and when an invalid password is inserted in Mega Man 7. There is also a card of him in RockBoard that has various aleatory negative effects, like increasing the prices from properties, taking away Zenny from the player or destroying a building.

In Rockman & Forte: Mirai Kara no Chousensha Reggae can be bought from the item shop and when used, he will give Bass healing items similar to Eddie.

In the game Mega Man 10, Reggae has his own store and sells items and upgrades to Bass.

Manga
Reggae is often seen with Dr. Wily in the manga Mega Man Megamix, often repeating some of Wily's quotes or making noises. Reggae rarely fights, but it was shown he and Wily are able to defeat Beat with few attacks.

Rockman Kiki Ippatsu
Reggae also makes an appearance in the drama CD Rockman Kiki Ippatsu.

Short Circuits
Prior to making an appearance in the actual comics, Reggae appears in the "Short Circuits" from Archie Comics' Mega Man, starting with issue #10, where he perches on Wood Man's head. He also appeared in Issue 16's strip, accompanying an irate Wily to the Advanced Robots and Trade Show, only to turn around and leave upon seeing an explosion at the event (caused in the actual comic by the Emerald Spears terrorist cell). Issue 20's strip found him watching Wily's work on Police Man-and the disastrous results.
