Jewel Man

Jewel Man (ジュエルマン) is one of the Robot Masters from Mega Man 9 whose period of use had expired and was scheduled to be scrapped. Jewel Man was designed to work in a diamond mine where he was in charge of cutting and polishing rocks with dexterity. He likes to receive attention and collect shiny things. It has also been speculated that he is a homosexual, due to his movement, effeminate face, and demasculating pallette choice.

His weapon, Jewel Satellite, has jewels surround Mega Man like a shield. Similar to shield weapons like Wood Man's Leaf Shield, Skull Man's Skull Barrier, Star Man's Star Crash, Junk Man's Junk Shield, and Pump Man's Water Shield.

Strategy
His pattern is running left and right with his Jewel Satellite surrounding him; he only jumps when Mega Man jumps, and throws individual jewels at Mega Man whenever he hits one of them or after a long time passes. With good aim, it's actually possible to slip in a shot through his shield; ironic since no projectiles can pass through the Jewel Satellite when used by Mega Man.

His weakness is Galaxy Man's Black Hole Bomb. In addition to doing five units of damage to him, it will also suck in the jewels of his Jewel Satellite, preventing him from firing at Mega Man until he creates more jewels.
