what is medabots?
medabots is a video game series most common in japan, and consists of these small robots called (you guessed it) medabots, fight in battles, but the main gimic is that you can switch the four parts of a medabot for different effects/actions - parts being- head, left arm, right arm, legs
each medapart (as the parts are called) has it's own hp bar, during battle a limb can take damage and once hp drops below zero it stops working, but if your medabot looses a peace in battle it's not over yet, it can still function until it's head part is destroyed.
The series is a role-playing video game franchise developed by Natsume and published by Imagineer.
Natsume also produced the harvest moon games for Nintendo (so giving one of their mascots some recognition would be nice)
The series has two main mascots rokusho and metabee, the latter being the more popular one.
metabee is also popular due to him being a main character in the medabots anime (came out in 1999, AFTER the games releases and being based of of the 2nd game)
The one who would most likely be the one picked for smash ultimate.
metabee is a ranged based character, who has a submachine gun on his left arm, a single shot revolver on his right arm, two cannons on his head.
he was the main metabot for the metabee verson in medabots2 /medarots2 (japaneese v)
and also appeared in
Medarot 2, Medarot R, Medarot 3, Medarot 4, Medarot G, Medabots AX, Medarot 2 Core, Medarot Brave
the series has had only a few international releases, but is still relevant in japan (and having a place in smash could help it's sells, and get more international releases)
