Megapede

"Megacorp is pleased to welcome our returning champion, he slithered into all of our hearts, please give around of applause for, Megapede!"

- Galactic Gladiators Host

Megapede was an immense insect robot gladiator from the Bogon Galaxy. It originated on planet Vaknar III's Torbian Canyon, but its home planet was stated as Joba in the Monsterpedia. The insect was taken to the Megacorp Games on Joba to compete as a gladiator.

Hisotry
Megapede was built in Torbian Canyon, on planet Vaknar III. He later rose to fame as a professional gladiator at the Megacorp Games on planet Joba. He later was inactive from combat until a Lombax by the name of Ratchet came along, causing Megapede to return to action. Unfortunately, he was defeated in several gladiator challenges by Ratchet.

Combat
When fighting Megapede in the arena, it would circle around the arena while releasing numerous bombs all over the arena floor. These bombs were similar in aesthetics to the bomb glove projectiles but do not explode upon impact - after a second or two of proximity to Ratchet, the bomb will detonate releasing a small yet lingering acidic cloud. The player must shoot at Megapede until, when enough damage has been dished out, a segment of its body detaches. The segment will scuttle quickly on four newly grown legs to a position before opening fire on you in Miniturret-like fashion. Once a segment is defeated, the field is cleared of bombs. This process is repeated until Megapede is defeated. The final three segments will simultaneously come down as turrets against the player. After they all are destroyed, the battle ends.
