Dark Necrobat

"Squeak! I've been waiting for you!"

- Dark Dizzy

Dark Dizzy, known as Dark Necrobat (ダーク・ネクロバット) in Japan, is a Reploid from Mega Man X5 based on a bat. He is a Maverick created by Sigma three years before the events of Mega Man X5. He left Sigma and his whereabouts where unknown, so Sigma just forgot him. The Maverick Hunters faced him when they where looking for the Fuel Tank to the Space Shuttle.

In battle, he flies about, sometimes teleports, and can summon Bat Bone to attack the player. Like bats, he doesn't like light, and is weak to Izzy Glow's weapons, F-Laser (with X) or C-Flasher (with Zero). When he is flying around, sometime he may charge toward the player, grab them and bite the player's character to drain his life energy, like a Vampire. If he is low on health, he will release Sonic Waves up and down. After that, he will use Dark Hold to freeze the player and attack him with either a Sonic Wave or Batton Bones. If the player hits Dark Dizzy while he is casting Dark Hold, he will stun and drop to the floor. After his defeat, the player obtains his weapon, Dark Hold.

Trivia

 * In the American version, Dark Dizzy is named after Dizzy Reed, the stage name of the keyboardist of the band Guns N' Roses.
 * Dark Necrobat shows many similarities with Shade Man, a boss of the classic Mega Man series who is fought in Mega Man 7. They are both bat shaped robots, use soundwaves as an offensive weapon and got the same life stealing ability, although Dark Necrobat uses it very rarely.


 * His "Dark Hold" (ability to freeze dimension) is the only special weapon in the Mega Man X series that doesn't have any higher power when X is equipped with an armor that allows special weapons to be charged.


 * Dark Dizzy seems to have a few things in common with Dio Brando, the main antagonist of the long-running Manga and Anime series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, which just so happens to be a fighting game produced by Capcom.
 * With his monocle like eye, ability to drain life, and the fact he's a Bat. Some might say Dark Dizzy has a nice "vampire theme" going. Dio Brando is a Vampire.
 * Dark Dizzy's tendency to "Squeak" is not unlike the "WRYYYYYY" sound made by all Vampires of the Jojo series.
 * Dark Hold, in both appearance and function; is practically identical to Dio Brando's signature move, the Tokiyo Tomare.
