-->''The world is too much for Ciel to bear alone...Take good care of her, Zero...''

The Resistance engineer. He gives Zero the Shield Boomerang and the Rod of the Week at the beginning of every game, except the fourth where he just gives him the Z-Knuckle. He also stores information disks for the player.

[[TheHero The previous hero]] ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' is still around, but in the form of a Cyber-Elf. He returns the Z-Saber to Zero at the beginning of the first game, then shows up to be the mentor at random times. In the second game, it's revealed that he used his body to lock up the Dark Elf.

----
* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Twice over. Some time between ''X'' and this series, he surrenders his body to act as the seal to the Dark Elf, and he's reduced to an incorporeal cyber-elf form. Then finally, having used up all his energy over the course of ''Zero 3'', he decides to retire to cyberspace.
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Not in-series, but his power is fairly well-known and he more or less fought the Elf Wars alone.
* BallOfLightTransformation: By virtue of being a Cyber-Elf, he takes on this form. He can also instead project himself as a holographic image.
* BarrierMaiden:
** He is the living seal of the Dark Elf.
** In a literal example that would still qualify, X erects a barrier around the Resistance Base in ''3'' to protect everyone within from Weil and Omega's MindControl. He implies that if he had more available power he could push it even farther [[spoiler:but his [[LivingOnBorrowedTime condition]] leaves that a losing battle]].
* BigDamnHeroes: In ''Zero 3'', when Zero and Ciel are trapped between the {{Mind Control}}led Resistance soldiers, all hope seems lost... until X comes from above and promptly disables the mind control of all the people in the whole building.
* BigGood: He was the main force of good as the leader of Neo Arcadia. Afterwards, he's still this, but only to a smaller extent.
* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:At the end of ''Zero 3'', his Cyber Elf fades out of reality, leaving the rest of the war in Zero's hands.]]
* CannotSpitItOut: See Zero's LockedOutOfTheLoop entry. X almost tells Zero this vital piece of information, but holds himself back instead, only confirming the truth once it has already surfaced.
* CloneAngst: X is by no means fond in the slightest of Copy-X. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that it has nothing to do with him being X's replacement, as that was the intention. Rather, said Copy deciding he would joss everything X had fought and suffered for, for over two centuries, just because ''he'' wanted to be the hero.
* ConverseWithTheUnconscious: He does this to Zero in the ending of the first game, after Zero exhausted himself fighting Copy-X, briefly explaining what he was doing during Zero's absence before he decides to "rest" and tells Zero to take care of the world for him. When Zero wakes up after, he does hear X. [[spoiler:This also happens in the end of the third game where X, now about to rest permanently in Cyberspace, again tells Zero (who fainted after the final boss fight with Omega) to keep watch on the world for him.]]
* DespairEventHorizon: It's implied that he got hit with this between his series and this series, specifically in the Elf Wars in which he fought most of it alone. The original concept was that he would lose all hope for human and Reploid coexistence and begin the oppression and genocide of his descendant species, since they were incapable of living peacefully with humanity (this concept became Copy-X later). Fortunately, he's still savvy enough to TakeAThirdOption, and he chose to seal what caused the war, the Dark Elf. While most of his dialogue as a Cyber-Elf is fairly normal, there are a couple times when he implies his more ruthless side that he's holding back, which is extremely jarring coming from a former ReluctantWarrior and poster android for IncorruptiblePurePureness. The fact it could break an AllLovingHero shows how bad things really are.
* DeusExitMachina: Okay, so his physical body is busy, so no playable X, no Dr. Light capsules, whatever. He should still be able to manifest before his underlings as the acknowledged lord of Neo Arcadia and tell them to cut the crap. Copy-X's presence might have been the problem.
* EnergyBeing: As a Cyber-Elf, he has no physical form.
* {{Expy}}: Has taken over Proto Man's role this time around. By the time the third game rolls around, he, like big brother Blues, is living on borrowed time...and probably gets the most focus he's ''ever'' gotten in a storyline. This isn't saying much.
* TheFaceless: ''Zero 2'' onwards; prior to that, he's literally, and figuratively, a ball of light. His sprite still has a definite face: It's just his dialogue picture that is only a glowing silhouette.
* HeroicSacrifice: Him sacrificing his body to seal the Dark Elf, and later sacrificing most of his energy to break the Resistance out of MassHypnosis.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: His speech at the end of the first game mentions that he no longer cares about the opponents he fought. Ironic and tragic, seeing as [[MartialPacifist he was born and raised with that very quality]]...Thanks to ExecutiveMeddling[[note]]X originally would become insane due to the stress and become the KnightTemplar BigBad that Zero has to stop; it later is changed to a copy[[/note]], X actually realized that this was happening to him and took himself out of the fight by using his body to seal the Dark Elf before he could go over the edge.
* ImmuneToMindControl: He's among the only few that can ignore the Dark Elf's mind control abilities, and can even cure controlled Reploids from it. It's attributed to how the Dark Elf is practically the Maverick Virus and X still has his Suffering Circuit.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:His leftover body, anyway, by Elpizo. He does that to open the seal to the Dark Elf.]]
* ItGetsEasier: He implies that he has come through this stage after he lived his life with more and more battles, claiming that he stopped caring about the enemies he fought. But before he went over the edge, he decided to stop and take a rest, prompting him to seal the Dark Elf. Copy X was meant to be the real X who did [[HeWhoFightsMonsters go over the edge]].
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:At the end of the third game, his Cyber Elf form has run out of energy and he goes into Cyberspace.]]
* LastRequest: He has one [[spoiler:in the end of the third game]] for Zero.
-->'''X:''' Can you hear me, Zero? My energy is almost all spent. I can't... stay in this world... much longer. Zero... I want to leave this world in your care. The threat Weil represents has not left this world. I want you... to protect humans and Reploids. Ze...ro... you can do it... you...can...
* LegendaryInTheSequel: Most people knew X as their "legendary savior".
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Cyberelf".
* LiteralGenie: Thirty years of testing assured that he would never attack a human being. Confronted with the monster that is Weil, he takes this to the extreme, [[ThePunishment ensuring that no death will ever come to put an end to his suffering]].
* LivingOnBorrowedTime: [[spoiler:After Elpizo destroys his physical body at the end of ''2'', X's Cyber Elf form only has what energy it has left to stay manifested in the physical world. By the time of ''3'' two months later, X is already struggling to hold on, and then he ends up using even more energy to free everyone in the Resistance base from Omega's control and keeping them safe.]]
* MrExposition: Provides important information that bridges the ''X'' and ''Zero'' series.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: A technological, fairy-like ball of light that projects himself with an angelic robe and halo from time to time. [[{{Foil}} He's meant to contrast against Copy X's Ultimate Armor and Seraph form]], who takes on a far more grandiose interpretation of an angel with the white and gold color scheme and multiple wings on his body; original X's garb is far more humble by comparison.
* PhysicalGod: Well, ''virtual'', but by the time Zero reawakens, even at 1/5 his former self, it's quite clear that X has effectively become the most powerful character in the series so far. [[FridgeBrilliance Then again, he did fight a century-spanning war without Zero, with a body made to infinitely evolve.]]
* PassingTheTorch: Since Zero, as of the end of ''Z3'', [[spoiler:is the ''only'' hero left alive and Weil is still lurking around somewhere]], X decided to make it official before "finally retiring to Cyberspace."
* PlotlineDeath: [[spoiler:Seeing as fixing dead robots/Reploids/whatever is entirely workable in-canon, it probably has to do with his desire to finally rest in peace. His body was also blown up in the second game.]]
* AProtagonistShallLeadThem: He became the ruler of Neo Arcadia some time between the ''X'' and ''Zero'' series. But he left his place to make himself the seal for the Dark Elf, and a copy is then made in his stead.
* TheMole: He's technically a member of LaResistance, and, as the original leader of Neo Arcadia, the information he gives is invaluable to the former's cause. That's how much he really [[CloneAngst hates his clone]].
-->'''X:''' I've cracked the Security system of the [[WarpWhistle Trans Server...]] now go... terminate that copy of me... terminate with extreme prejudice...
* RogueProtagonist: Thankfully subverted, because of the Executive Meddling in the ''X'' series; he was originally supposed to be the BigBad, but then a copy took up the role.
* RuleOfSymbolism: He "died" to absolve the war between man and Reploid once and for all, continued watching over them as a spirit, reappeared before those who'd followed him in an angelic form complete with [[HolyHalo halo]] and cross on his garb, and only acted in protection rather than violence. Let's see you deny that with a straight face.
* SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: He used his body to seal the Dark Elf.
* SpiritAdvisor: As he's reduced to a "spirit", there isn't much he could do but advising Zero on doing the right thing. FridgeBrilliance in that he is basically emulating his creator/father figure Dr. Light, who was this to him in the previous series.
* TakeUpMySword: X asks Zero to continue the battle for peace. Taken literally in the first game, where X gives Zero a sword in the first Boss fight, only it was actually Zero's own Z-Saber.
* VirtualGhost: By virtue of being reduced to a Cyber Elf.

-->'''Cerveau:''' Oh, you're awake. How do you feel?
-->'''[[spoiler:Harpuia]]:''' Horrible. Just the thought of being helped by you makes me nauseous. Stripped of my position, and driven out of Neo Arcadia. I'm used goods...
-->'''Cerveau:''' That's not true. You just stood up for your beliefs, [[NotSoDifferentRemark just like we do]]. You've made no mistakes.
-->'''[[spoiler:Harpuia]]:''' My beliefs...

* CloningBlues: X is by no means fond in the slightest of Copy-X. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that it has nothing to do with him being X's replacement, as that was the intention. Rather, said Copy deciding he would joss everything X had fought and suffered for, for over two centuries, just because ''he'' wanted to be the hero.

* TheMole: He's technically a member of LaResistance, and, as the original leader of Neo Arcadia, the information he gives is invaluable to the former's cause. That's how much he really [[CloningBlues hates his clone]].

* CannotSpitItOut: See Zero's LockedOutOfTheLoop entry above. X almost tells Zero this vital piece of information, but holds himself back instead, only confirming the truth once it has already surfaced.

-->'''X:''' I've cracked the Security system of the [[WarpWhistle Trans Server...]] bow go... terminate that copy of me... terminate with extreme prejudice...

-->'''X:''' I've cracked the Security system of the [[WarpWhistle Trans Server...]]Now go...Terminate that copy of me...terminate with extreme prejudice...

-->'''X:''' Can you hear me, Zero? My energy is almost all spent. I can't...stay in this world...much longer. Zero...I want to leave this world in your care. The threat Weil represents has not left this world. I want you...to protect humans and Reploids. Ze...ro...You can do it...You...can...

* BigDamnHeroes: In ''Zero 3'', when Zero and Ciel are trapped between the {{Mind Control}}led Resistance soldiers, all hope seems lost...until X comes from above and promptly disables the mind control of all the people in the whole building.

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: It's very heavily implied that he had this during his stint as Neo Arcadia's ruler from human ''and'' Reploid alike. Part of the issue with [[ElCidPloy Copy X]] is that he's at least partially coasting on that built-up reputation.

* BareYourMidriff: Wears a tanktop that only covers her chest.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Not in-series, but his power is fairly well-known and he more or less fought the Elf Wars alone.

* HostageSpiritLink: In a variant, in the second game, some of the Resistance soldiers are brainwashed to attack you; don't kill them or you lose your mission score. The trick is that, if you really have to hurt them, you can use a weak attack to make them "deactivate" for a moment, allowing you to go past them. Note: attacking them after they reactivate will kill them. They really will ''die,'' by the way; if you kill one, they won't appear back in the Resistance Base later. YouMonster.
