Storm Tornado

Storm Tornado (ストームトルネード) is the weapon that X obtains from defeating Storm Eagle in Mega Man X and Mega Man Xtreme. In its uncharged form, this weapon fires a long, horizontal tornado that remains on the screen for several moments before heading in the direction X is facing. The tornado is very effective against larger enemies, as it can hit several times with one shot. When the weapon is used at full charge, X is surrounded by a screen-high vertical whirlwind that can hit enemies from above and below before leaving the screen. However, in the remake Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, the charged version will not surround X with the tornado, instead he shoots a cyclone for a short distance that forms a large tornado when it lands on solid ground, allowing a longer-range attack.

In Mega Man X, this weapon is Flame Mammoth's weakness - despite Mammoth not flinching in the slightest bit from it. In Mega Man Xtreme, it is the weakness for Flame Stag.
