Geemel

"I've been waiting for you X! Kekeke. You seem to be having problems! I'll give you another problem to deal with!"

- Geemel

Geemel (ギーメル) is one of the Shadow Hunters from Mega Man Xtreme. He works with Techno to hack the Maverick Hunters' Mother Computer system along his partner Zain.

Characteristics
Geemel is a cunning and malicious Reploid. He is very self-serving, and has a tendency to laugh with "ke" sounds. He is quite loyal to his partner Zain, but will not hesitate to abandon those he doesn't care for, such as Techno.

Geemel is a combat Reploid who possesses ninja-like abilities, attacking by using a large shuriken, teleporting, and riding a kite. As opposed to his partner Zain's heavy armor and emphasis on brute strength, Geemel is more focused on speed and agility. He is vulnerable to Speed Burner.

Mega Man Xtreme
In Normal Mode, Geemel is first seen speaking with Techno about X's progress against their Maverick reconstructions. He wants to let X continue so they can watch him, but Techno wants to stop him before it's too late. Zain then volunteers to face X.

After X destroys Zain in the Sigma Stage on the way to the Mother Computer's core, Geemel swears he will avenge him. Then, once X has defeated Sigma for the first time, Geemel realizes that his location is now available to the Maverick Hunters and decides to flee, abandoning Techno.

In Hard Mode, Geemel returns to wreak further havoc on the Mother Computer, resurrecting a new group of Maverick data. X can encounter Geemel in a secret room in Wheel Gator's Dinosaur Tank Stage, but escapes the encounter. Once X defeats all of the Mavericks, he faces Geemel on his way back to the core in Sigma Stage 1. Although Geemel promises to avenge Zain, he is destroyed.

In Extreme Mode, Geemel instead fights X right after he defeats Zain.

Production Notes
Designer Comments "These designs [Geemel and Zain] were pretty simple. I just went straight off the instructions I got to make 'armor' characters. Zain is heavy plate, and Geemel is light plate. I did think they were a little too complex considering the Game Boy's graphical capacity, so I was totally blown away when I saw them come to life on that little screen! I can't say enough nice things about the masterful skills of the people who work the dots." - Haruki Suetsugu

Trivia

 * Geemel's name is possibly derived from Gimel, the third letter of many Semitic abjads.
