Chimp-o-Matic


 * "You hit them with Chimp-o-Matic! I always wanted one."
 * -Alister Azimuth talking to Ratchet at the Axiom City.

The Chimp-o-Matic was a weapon that turned enemies into chimpanzees, and was originally designed as a party gag by bored GrummelNet engineers. Robotic enemies were turned into toy monkeys with cymbals, while organic enemies turned into normal chimps. Turning larger enemies into chimps would take longer. Ratchet could make the monkeys dance by throwing out a Groovitron Ball. Contrary to popular belief, it does upgrade, despite the lack of an upgrade bar. When it reached V5, it became the Chimpositron which could turn two enemies into chimps simultaneously.

The Chimp-o-Matic was acquired for winning the Raritanium Cup in the Agorian Battleplex.

The Chimp-o-Matic/Chimpositron was the only transformation weapon in the series to work on a main boss. It had the power to turn Dr. Nefarious into a organic monkey when you battled him in A Crack in Time, it counted as defeating him even if he had full health, although the game would crash, and you would have to restart the game, and continue from the cutscene.
