Eddie

Eddie (エディ), also known as Eddy and Flip-Top, is another vital companion of Mega Man that first appeared in Mega Man 4. Eddie was created by Dr. Light to carry items for Mega Man (according to the US game manual, Dr. Light built him as his personal walking suit case), but because he's incomplete, Eddie gives random items instead of choosing them.

In most of his appearances, he can be helpful in the long run, and gives power-ups when needed. In Mega Man 8, he helps Mega Man in the sections he uses the Rush Jet by throwing bombs from his head. In Mega Man & Bass and Mega Man 9, Eddie can be bought from the item shop. When he is used, he will teleport in and drop many healing items for Mega Man to pick up.
