Dive Man

Dive Man (ダイブマン) is a Robot Master created by Dr. Cossack with the AI functions of a miniaturized submarine. When Dr. Wily forced Dr. Cossack to work for him, Dive Man's Special Weapon, Dive Missile, was modified for combat. Dive Missile is an amphibian homing missile fired from his chest (a reference to the capability of submarines to launch torpedoes from within) that was originally used to catch big fishes. Due to a design mistake, Dive Man can also attack by launching himself forward like a missile, crashing into his foes to do major damage.

In fitting with his Naval disposition, he is a good listener, but quite ironically for being an aquatic robot, he tends to suffer from motion sickness easily, perhaps referring to the fact that submarines are designed primarily for underwater use. Dive Man does not like Pirate Man, possibly because pirates attack and pillage other sea vessels.

Mega Man 4
Dive Man is one of the eight bosses. He attacks by firing three Dive Missiles and by erratically launching himself to crash into Mega Man. While the missiles can be destroyed easily, his launch attack has to be dodged by jumping over him. It's hard to tell which attack he is doing as he always folds his hands before attacking. His weaknesses are the Skull Barrier and the Dust Crusher. The Skull Barrier destroys his missiles without needing of shooting them, although the barrier will destroy upon hitting a missile, while the Dust Crusher does the same, but can't achieve on hitting several missiles and still making to hit Dive Man.

Mega Man III
Dive Man is one of the four bosses fought in the Wily Castle. His strategy is similar to Mega Man 4.

Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters
Dive Man is one of the six bosses from the "" course. He is weak to the Thunder Beam (likely due to how dangerous it is to mix electricity and water).

Mega Man (Ruby-Spears)
Dive Man appeared in the episode 20,000 Leaks under the Sea from the Mega Man animated series. In the cartoon, he has propellers in his feet and fires Dive Missiles from a cannon in his left arm instead of his chest. Dive Man, Wave Man, Cut Man and Guts Man attack an undersea mine with Wily and Mega Man tries to stop them. During the battle, a giant squid throws Dive Man into Guts Man and they get stuck in the net Guts Man was using. Cut Man tries to free them, but is stopped by Mega Man. The two eventually get free and alongside Wave Man, attack Mega Man. Mega Man manages to drop the four robots into a underwater pit, and they retreat. They later attack the mine again, and Mega Man defeats Dive Man by sending a Dive Missile back to him with Wave Man's weapon. Dive Man has a somewhat screechy voice.

Mega Man Megamix
In the manga, Dive Man is a marine robot designed for work in the fishing industry. He has a ultrasonic sonar that allows him to lock-on to his target in low-visibility environments. His Dive Missiles are mobilized by a screw propulsion system, and are equipped with both active as well as passive sonar systems. Despite all these features, the missiles function in almost complete silence. When fighting out of water, the Dive Missiles switch to a jet propulsion system, and they also have the added feature of a laser tracking system. Before the battle against Mega Man, Dive Man's ability and durability were enhanced. He is a true robot of the sea, and can be a little reckless at times, sometimes even resorting to charge into his enemies head-on.

After the events of Mega Man 4, Dr. Cossack's Citadel is destroyed by Skull Man and Dive Man protects Kalinka from the collapsing building. He and Kalinka are later found in the rubble by Mega Man and Roll, and he is repaired by Bright Man. Dive Man, Bright Man and Toad Man help Mega Man rescue Dr. Cossack and the other robots captured by Dr. Wily and Skull Man. During the fight against Dust Man, Drill Man and Pharaoh Man, Dive Man defeats Drill Man by launching several Dive Missiles on him. Mega Man and the seven Cossack robots later join forces to fight against Skull Man.
