Buster Rod G

Buster Rod G (バスターロッドＧ) is a Robot Master from Mega Man: The Wily Wars based on Sun Wukong, a character from the Chinese novel Journey to the West. He's the leader of the Genesis Unit and a master of martial arts. Because of his rowdy personality, he and Mega Water S argue often, and Hyper Storm H tries to avoid conflicts between them.

He is fought twice in the game. In his stage he attacks with a rod that can extend, and can spin it fast to protect against attacks. He also creates illusions of himself when he jumps to other side of the room. After his defeat, he escapes (having only 1 HP left) and is fought again in the third Wily Tower stage, where he attacks with shots from his arm cannon and jumps from platforms that are constantly falling down. His weakness is Hard Knuckle.

Trivia

 * The "G" in Buster Rod G's name stands for "Gokou" from the name Son Gokou. Son Gokū is the name for Sun Wukong in Japan and is not to be confused with the hero from Dragon Ball. However, as the two are based on Sun Wukong there are notable similarities and thus the parallels are somewhat reasonable.


 * Buster Rod G's Japanese dislike of Rush and Treble comes from a Japanese belief that dogs and monkeys don't get along.


 * Buster Rod G is one of the few Robot Masters in the Classic series to have a tail.
