Supporter Robo

From GoBots Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Supporter Robo are Machine Robo used by Machine Robo Rescue an, as their name suggests, they provide back-up for the Leader Robo while also being able to combine with them to form the limbs of a Hyper Mode. While each Leader Robo has its' own team of four near-identical Supporter Robo, though with the correct commands from a K-BOY they can swap them around and perform an EX Combination.

They have limited AI that gives them some independence, though they usually follow the directs of their Leader Robo or Robo Master and are referred to only by number. They rarely speak, and when they do it's only to confirm an order has been received. They have no personality as such, but tend to follow the mannerisms of their Leader Robo.

The first Supporter Robo created were the Tank Robo, intended to work with Stealth Robo. However, when he went rogue they were put into storage.

At the advent of the Machine Robo Rescue programme, the organisation had four groups of Supporter Robo in action - the Sky Robo, who formed the Jet Team with Jet Robo; the Aider Robo, who formed the Fire Team with Fire Robo; the Bike Robo, who formed the Police Team with Police Robo; and the Bulldozer Robo, who formed the Drill Team with Drill Robo.

They provided additional back-up duties during the early stages of the unit's growth and were frequently used in combat with the Disasters' Gura Gorros, often as part of a Hyper Mode. The new Helicopter Robo were deployed first to America to work with Gyro Robo, but were transferred to Japan by request of Koshiro Sasaki, with the Gyro Team later joining Blue Sirens. Whirlwind! Gyro Robo Jay was later able to recover Stealth Robo's K-BOY and was able to reactivate the Tank Robo, adding them to the Disasters' arsenal. The Invincible Hyper Stealth Robo!

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • On numerous occasions Supporter Robo just appear out of nowhere in order to form a Hyper Mode with a Leader Robo. Teleportation? Subspace? Lazy writing? We'll never know...
