SHEEP MAN

Gutentag! I'm just posting here for any future challengers looking to boost their score by a fair amount. Note that this stragety nor the next ones will NOT be for unlocking, as you could simply purchase them in the store. This is simply for BP.(Though not much)

To start things off, Sheep Man.

Note that with this strategy, you can beat the stage with a A.

---

To sum things up, I took A Fox In The Wires's strat(see page 1), but added Atomic Crasher. Simply use it on Sheep Man to one shot then use Thunder Beam on everyone but Elec Man. 1 Buster Charge will be required, resulting in a wasted turn and an A instead of an S.(I think that's why you get the A.)

Again, save for the addition of the A.C., you can thank A Fox In The Wires for this one.

Alright! We've must of done some damage if he's this upset!

UKR Squad a's morale rose!
UKR Squad b's morale rose!
Despair Squad simply look at one another before aiming their Despair Cannons on the Shield Turrets.

Darn machine's stopped working for a second. It's ready to fire now.
Good! Take them down!

Attack Phase
UKR Squad a and b, distraught by the ineffectiveness of the bullets, fire off a barrage of missiles at Proteus.

Despair Squad aims their sights upon the shield turrets and fires a large grey laser beam, enveloping the Shield Turrets. As the beam disappears, an eye-shaped blast mark is all that remains. The Despair Squad begins to place their hands on the nozzle and begin feeding it energy.

Rookie UKR Squad a 75% Steady
Rookie UKR Squad b 85% Steady
Despair Squad ??? ?

Planet Zeus:

It's been one day since the Chordroids...(hope I said that right) attacked. Thanks to detectives, a signal seems to have been sent to an unknown location. Attempts to decrypt this message have failed so far.

Hold on one second.

Breaking News! The Chordroids seemed to have just...disappeared! Furthermore, a strange green light has shined down upon various cities as the damage mentioned earlier...is seeming to be undone. Could it be the work of some foreign power? Some otherworldly force? Or even the return of the chosen one? Stay tuned...

Blackreach Forest(Proteus)

The target seems inverious to bullets? Switch to the -AAAH
A number of soldiers fell to the Shield Turrets.
We can't do a thing!

UKR Squad (a)'s morale dropped!
Despair Squad's morale rose!

Despair Squad, cannons ready yet?
A D.S. trooper looks down to see that his despair cannon is charged.
It's uh...it's not even close to being fully charged.
What!? How can we stop him then?
[{missile} Just keep firing!

UKR Squad (b)'s morale dropped.
Despair Squad's morale rose.
Despair Squad began to grow stronger!

Shredding Rounds: A type of bullet designed to tear into armor. Due to the ballistics of the bullet, it has the unintended effect of damaging the condition of the gun faster than usual.
Deceiver Rounds: A type of bullet made out of nanotechnology. Is designed to fool simple systems into being unable to correctly access damage. Won't work for more complex machines.

00C:(So real quick, since Regulus took all of the MKII virus, does that mean that Proteus lacks the virus?)

We've got enemy reinforcements!
Take out their leader. The rest will follow.

Rookie U.K.R. Squad (a) rained down gunfire upon Proteus!
Rookie U.K.R. Squad (b) attempted to delay the reinforcements from assisting!

On Planet Zeus, a broadcast is played...


Reports are in of a strange gathering of machines identified as Chordroids near various capitals around the world. As authorities pulled in to check on them, they all seem to be saying a chilling phrase.

No hope
No hope
No hope

Breaking News! Reports are in that a group of Chordroids have gone violent near Ida! Authorities report that the droids are attacking, drawing mustaches on statues. But perhaps the most bizarre is that their only attacking mechanical droids. Despite the authorities's attempts to engage in combat with them, the droids only seem to be attacking mechas.

A distress signal from one of the Chordroids was sent directly to Mighty.

---

Day one of our operations have gone almost as expected.
Almost?
Well while we did in fact strike at the perfect time while some of the strongest fighters needed to rest, we ended up failing to account for certain other parties. Partially Hades.
Hades?
Despite entering his facility and getting a hold of some of the droids, we failed to account for how far his reach has spread.
We could pose an alliance but-

] NO.
He is the polar opposite of what we stand for. What my vision is for the universe.
But his power plus our own could easily bring the universe under your control.
We made a deal with a being that rivaled Kirby. We can't lose. We can afford another couple of months if it means not becoming the enemy. Understood?
Yes sir.
...Any thing else you wish to report?
There is one more thing. It's about...a particular robotics tournament.

---

In Mega City...

A robotics tournament? At long last...
The universe will know the true power of...
Bullet Kin!
Suddenly, Bullet Kin is swept away by the wind along with the flyer he was reading. Incidentally enough, it flew over to a grieving Unbeatable Air Man.

We know. Suppressors, you're up!
Proteus is bombarded by waves of energy, causing him to be unable to fly or teleport.
Despair Cannons status report.
70% ready.
We'll have to make due then...

At Ray's Office...

The doors to his office fly open as five soldiers walk in. Surprisingly, they don't appear all that hostile.

Greetings miss! In accordance with Coda 121, you are to be given an organic supervisor for two reasons: To ensure good behavior and to ensure your protection. In accordance with the Azan Treaty, you are to chose. Be advised if any harm is to come to your supervisor you will be held responsible.

---

Suddenly, Proteus is halted by a group of soldiers.

You've been accused of breaking Coda 100 by a lone survivor. I suggest you surrender unless you wish for early conscription.

Well what do we have here?
The corspe of the Starman Blue was taken under the wing of the shrouded figure!

Aboard the ...uh, Hightower, what's the name of the ship Rugal operates again?...

The head of Skeleton Jack rolled over pass a constructed barrier of bones made by his clones and reformed behind them. Just as he threw a Boom Bone, he was knocked back by a hundred shots. As he tries to stand, he gets pelted by a hundred more.
...It's clear this exercise will guarantee no desired results and-

*FLASHBACK*

---

---

???: This shield was made specially for you. It has nanotechnology able to recognize it's owner and can be warped to them at will. Remember now, no one is to touch, let alone take the Emperor's Crown. Is that understood?

Yes my liege.

???: Good. You will be our last line of defense against these marauders. I pray for your success and safety.

As I for you, my liege.

---

...
Maybe...maybe this training did help in learning who I am. Though the file, Emperor Crown, is unreadable.

Suddenly drones appear all around the universe.

Attention fellow lifeforms and inorganics. We have won. The universe is safe. Safe from Regulus and now from every hostile force imaginable and unimaginable. Thanks to the efforts of Kilroy and his army, the universe is safe.

A hologram of Regulus and green robots are fighting before Regulus being blasted by a green laser beam, deleting him without a trace.

As we speak, various outposts are being erected across the universe for the sole purpose of protection. Protection from who you may ask? From them:

Vivid pictures of robots are seen attacking different species of life.

It is clear that the ONLY way to protect us lifeforms is to rally against the machines. They have and will take your jobs, your lives, and your children's. Take what happened at Mega City. Do you think it was the work of a human bomber or a metal-clad nutjob?

Be advised that as we speak, various soldiers of the U.K.R, or Universal Kilroy Regiment, are knocking on the doors of those deemed threats and are being given an ultimatum: join the U.K.R. and by extension us lifeforms, or be decommissioned. If you are an machine listening to this, we mean no harm unless you intend to do harm.

[[image]()]{space_missile} And as for those of higher power...if you stand in the way of our grand goal, you will be put down by those before you. No grand deity in the sky can't stop us for we serve under the winged one.

So in conclusion, it is up to us to make the world a better place. To make the world what it should be: free from harm. In a sense, each one of you are soldiers to a higher calling. It is your DUTY to accept the responsibility. If you see any suspicious behavior, let a fellow soldier know. It is YOU that could stop the next Mega City or the next Arac or the next Comb Colony.

You are dismissed!

Double post

At last. We've reached the fortress's manufacturing plant. Intel suggests that it's nothing compared to the real deal, but it has some functionality at least.
So you just want me to bodyjack them as they come out?
That's the plan private.
Why not just hack it to where their on our side? Then Kilroy can just do his thing and "conscript" them.
...
...
C.Air kicks Null to the ground.
Did you just question my methods private?
Look. You don't own me, okay? I'm simply speeding things along and-.
And what? Are you saying that you own me instead?
That's not what-
First Wily. Then that Evil Energy. Then you. I've ALWAYS been the unwilling lackey to you self-asorbed twits.
...
What's the matter Null? Cat got your tongue? No witty comeback?
...
Come on maggot! Speak! Trust me maggot, you don't want to see me angry do you?
As C.Air gets ready to kick Null again, a though comes to him.
!
Wait a minute...was I always this angry?
C.Air sits and thinks to himself.

As Skeleton Jack sits in the ship, a thought occurs to him...

When does the training start?

Deep within transfer site 3848...

...
So the beast's finally asleep. Can't believe no one save for us wanted this job.
Yeah...yeah really...
...
...I hate when it does that. Creeps me the Wastebin out.
...Uh hey 529.
Yeah?
...Don't tell anyone, but...I think there's something...supernatural about this thing.

1139 tries to stop a chuckle from leaving his mouth.

...Go on.
Well...I know it sounds crazy, but I noticed that whenever something...odd happens around this facility, that beast reveals its eye.
So what are you saying? That it's responsible for what happened yesterday with the coffee?
That's not what I meant and you know it. I mean that with the recent...glitches happening. You know, the floors turning green, the walls bleeding goo, the neon flowers-
Woah. Hold up....The walls bled goo?
It was on your off day. The point is that I think THAT thing's responsible for it. Why else would no one take-

Look!
...
Did you see that?
See what?
It's eye just glowed green.
Green? Th-
Before the glass can even be heard shattering, two greenish-grey tentacles pierce 529.
GHHH
529! No!
!
As the tentacle retract to Quin, Quin floats and goes to a nearby wall and stares at it. The wall starts to twist and contort before Quin flies through it.

Host deemed at maximum negative energy.

Burner Man:
___________________________________________
Wave Burner: Launches a medium damaging attack that hits multiple times. Can only hit the front row.

One of three

Burner Catcher: The user throws a flaming bear trap onto the arena, lightly damaging the next unit to enter and making them unable to switch out for 2 turns. If no one switches into the front position within the next three rounds, the trap disappears.

Burner Crash: The user crashes down from the skies, working as a Flame-based Freeze Cracker.

Burner Rush: The user attacks both the front row and one target on the bench. +1 Speed. +1Fast

Joke Reference:

Burnerinate: The user burnerinates the stage, removing all effects and adds 2x Flame. Can only be used once per game.
___________________________________________
Strike Man
_____________________________________________
Rebound Striker: The user throws a ball that has a low accuracy. However, when it misses, it gains power and makes another check, this time raising its accuracy. On the 5th miss, the attack fails.

One of three:

Rolling Strike: The user curls into a ball and slams into a random target. Has a 50% to hit the front or the bench. This does not account for accuracy.

Strike Out: The user throws three balls at one enemy. If all three hit, the user gains +1ATK.

Sliding Strike: The user throws a ball that goes after all other attacks. Ignores core shields and moves that make the target invincible, such as Skull Barrier. If the target is under the effects of a move such as Skull Barrier, then the effect is removed.
________________
Nitro Man
________________

Wheel Cutter: When used, the enemy is dealt multiple low-damaging attacks. Speed affects it's power, not attack.

One of three:

Nitro Boost: The user boosts its speed to the max for three turns. However the user takes damage.

Reckless Ride: The user goes as quick as possible into the enemy. This attack's power is not determined by attack, but by speed. Also, after attacking, the user takes damage. Higher speeds equal higher damage.

(I prefer the first two, but due to tiers, that may be a problem.)

Wheelie Cutter: The user performs a wheelie, dealing moderate damage. +3Fast.

After the Scooby Gang remnants leave, the remaining destroyed Hades Guards stand, pieces restored. Each of them do a salute before being teleported. One of the guards trip, falling into the pile of blood. As it stands, it also does a salute before teleporting. Null and C.Air continue to trek through the fortress.

You see that?
Yeah...I see the three gods above our power levels. What about them?
No! I mean the pile of corpses around them. There perfect for what General Kilroy wants. And YOUR going to get them.
...
Null tries to keep in his laughter, letting out a single chuckle.
That's an order. You don't follow my orders, you won't get what you want. Simple as that.
You really are trying to get me killed, aren't you?
You come back, don't you?
That's besides the point...fine.

Some of the bodies of broken Hades Guards and Regacron Troops around Shaggy and Scrappy(and Cranky) begin to rise one by one.

North of Hades's False Dark Fortress...

Alright, listen up.
How'd we get here so quickly?
You will address me as sir, understood?
Sure thing.
...
Corporal Air trips Null military style.
Want to try that again?
Let's focus on the objective.
C. Air stares at Null with contempt before staring at the fortress.
You remember the details?
I don't recall you telling me.
Once again, C.Air trips Null.
...
Any bodies you find you are to bodyjack, then send to these coordinates. Roger that?
Roger that.
...You're not even worth my time.
Null and C. Air slide down the cliff and stealthily enter the fortress.

Behind the Papa Beta's Pizzera...
Here we are, maggot.
This...this is a wall. Where's-
Null then notices two red spots on the wall. An outline forms around it.
So...how'd your plan go? You'd get that KI like you so confidently said you were going to?
...
Thought as much...

Listen up...behind that helmet lies a weapon capable of helping humanity thrive. Your little bodyjacking ability could help create SOLDIERS dedicated to humanity. You could make the world a better place.
] But...you don't care about that, do you? You care about "escaping" this reality, right? You sound like one of those druggies from the 60s.
It sounds crazy, but I KNOW there's a world beyond this one.
I could argue all day about the contrary, but that's besides the point. You want out? The only way now is the obvious one. AND the moral one, mind you.
What? You think what I did was immoral?
You opened up a dead zone, attacked a random person for no reason, and unleashed a literal God on those with actual morals.
Like I said, it was when I activated my AUTO mode. If I realized what would of happened-
I don't care. They don't care. No one cares. Your excuses have let you friendless and out in the cold. Not everyone is as HEARTLESS as you, maggot.
I'm the best shot you've got for your goal because I'm the ONLY shot you've got. Understood?
...
You said you wanted to leave this world on good terms, right? This is the only way. Now then, are you willing to make a pledge to this great nation and to mankind?

...
How hard is it to use that CPU of yours to make-
Alright. I'm in.

Good. Now then...Corporal Air.
Corporal Air does a salute.
I want you to instruct him as a Corporal would do for a Private.
...Understood sir!
Good. Also, I want you to tell him about our plan against Regulus. I've some business to attend to. Dismissed.

Unbeatable Air simply looks down at the medallion for a few seconds and swears he sees a face before looking back up at Metal.

...Thank you. Also, if no one's taken the Flame Medallion, why not use it yourself or give it to the user of the Sol Emeralds? Should increase their flames powers after all.

So...when I fell through the roof, I noticed that you had a...greenish medallion. That's...a Nature Medallion, correct?
So...I don't need it for the sake of a power boost, rather...a memoir. Yeah, a memoir, to a guy that almost beat the great Unbeatable ...
...
No...I'm gonna cut the act. I'm scared. Not of dying, but of failure. What if everyone just pushes forwards while my corpse just...rusts? What if I give it everything, and I mean everything I've got, and this Regulus fellow just...laughs, then kills me just by looking at me. I'll be a failure! he fact is...I'm old. I'm outdated. I'm not the champion I used to be Metal. So...if the medallion accepts me, could I use it? It, combined with the Time Stones, should be enough power to make me useful again. To make me a fighter again. To make me worthy of my fans AND the mercy and humility that he showed me.

Null simply stands in silence.

Chaotic...is it possible that my logic is fried to the point that-No. It's their lack of information that leads them to their conclusion.

Well...could you at least let Quin out of there. We need to talk about something.

---

Yo Null.
As Null turns around, he receives a kick to the gut.

What...what was that for?
That? That was for me. My boss wants to talk to you.
Kilroy?
Who do you think?
You know he's just controlling you like I did, right?
No, I honestly doubt that. For one, I actually remember things compared to how you managed to make me both earn and lose an whole ship as well as half of my crew. All for the sake of some stupid Pokeball. Then you proceeded to program it to where I would reside in some pizzeria where I got drunk until getting fused with another, more aggressive version of me. Finally, after that whole shebang, you made it to where I became drunk once more AND missed the party. And if it wasn't for finding that watch, you would of try body-jacking me again for who know's what. Meanwhile you know what Kilroy's done? He's given me the power to make my own choices.
Okay...what's Two?
Air proceeds to kick him once more.
Two is that I could never do THIS to the people I hate.
Air freezes Null and proceeds to kick him in rapid succession. As soon as Air untimefreezes Null, he is launched to the ground and sent skiting. Afterwards, Air pulls him back to him using his air cannon.
You know...that's a fair point...

Now come on, let's see if your willing to accept his deal this time.

---

Uh hey Metal...I need to talk to you for a second in private about something...private...

Null cracks his knuckles and cheers himself on for defeating Procell Hercules style before coming face to face with an energy rifle.

Null: Oh...oh yeah, forgot about that.

Null pulls up a Skull Barrier right as the rifle fires, negating the damage.
As the system bot fires another burst, Null simply grabs him and bonks his head on the Skull Barrier, erasing him. As if on cue, a System Bot used Super Arm on Null, causing him to be launched into a nearby camera, yet when he collided, he simply disappeared.

SB:Did...did I do it?
A cold wind began to blow as the system bot took out its phone. Right as it pressed a button, he fell halfway into the ground. Confused, SB realized that his legs were chopped off. As if on cue, Null appeared upside down.
Null: No...fraid not.
Null teleported to multiple locations before arriving to Papa Beta's Pizzeria.
