Dr. Psyche

"Perfect! You'll make a good specimen!"

- Dr. Psyche

Dr. Psyche (Dr.サイケ) is the "Computational Humanoid Reploid" in Mega Man X: Command Mission.

History
Dr. Psyche is a member of the Rebellion Forces and is very interested in the evolutionary capabilities of Reploids. He was an old research partner of Professor Gaudile and urged him to join the Rebellion forces as well. Dr. Psyche eventually hunted down his old colleague to wrest the Force Metal Generator device he had created and was confronted by Mega Man X's command team in doing so. Dr. Psyche is crazed and power hungry as well as very likely insane. He makes long, almost ridiculous movements with almost every sentence he speaks, making him a fairly comical character, likely a byproduct of the later-revealed Supra-force Metal. He is also extremly arrogant and considers others inferior to himself due to his superior intellect.

Upon his defeat at X's hands, Dr. Psyche separates his head from his dead body and attaches it to a larger, seashell-like body with tentacles dubbed Mad Nautilus. (Interestingly, this is the part of the battle where the traditional "WARNING!" light shows up.) Despite his protective shield, Mad Nautilus was eventually defeated by X.

In battle, Dr. Psyche always begins by summoning Needles to aid him and will summon more when they are destroyed. When he has Needles, he attacks by throwing beakers, which can affect player stats. 

Mad Nautilus
Mad Nautilus (マッドノーチラス) is Dr. Psyche's second form. In this form, he has a powerful shield that automatically counters any attacks performed on it. Eventually, the shield will drop as he charges up for the attack, Mad Ecstasy, allowing for the Hunters to attack without retaliation for a bit.  ==

Trivia== > His starting line during the second battle " You'll never beat my evolved form!! " has sparked a running joke on Youtube, where he is teased as being a Pokemon, due to the phrase "evolved " which is often used in Pokemon.

> His battle tactics, cries and responses from being hit all suggest he is somewhat of a coward, using his superior intellingence in place of his brawn as an advantage against his oppenents.
