While the comparison does make sense, it has not been confirmed by Word Of God to be deliberate. Some fans also like to compare BeastMan to X4s Slash Beast, so it's still unclear which character he is supposed to be based on.

[[folder:Tora ''(Torakichi Aragoma)'' and [=KingMan.EXE=]]]
!!!''Tora voiced by: Creator/MasayaOnosaka (JP), Creator/ScottMcNeil (EN)''
!!!''[=KingMan=] voiced by: Keikou Sakai (JP), Creator/ScottMcNeil (EN)''
An initially arrogant boy with a talent in chess. He is a notable N1 contestant that ended up helping Lan and friends in 3's endgame scenario.
* ChessMotifs: His Navi [=KingMan=], who looks like a chess king and uses chips based on chess pieces and tactics resembling chess openings.
* TheChessmaster: On a much smaller scale than normal, but Tora's skill at chess is applied directly to his netbattles. It is surprisingly effective.
* ChestInsignia: A white crown on a black background.
* DemotedToExtra: In the third game, Tora was essentially a second Dex in terms of gameplay, being an ally who could be battled repeatedly for more Navi chips and plotwise, helps the others defeat WWW. Their only anime appearance was in a filler episode during the first season.
* FlunkyBoss: [=KingMan=] commands other chess pieces to guard him in battle while he stays in the back row.
* {{Jerkass}}: When he first meets Lan, he tells him to go home instead of participating in the N1 Grand Prix. Lan justifiably asks him who Tora thinks he is bossing him around like that. Tora responds that kids are mannerless these days and provokes Lan during the N1 announcements and embarrasses him in front of the audience when Mega Man tells Lan to calm down by citing Lan as a baby an needing his Navi to nanny him. And when Sunayama is announcing the contestants, he tells him "Shut up and show us the fight arena!". Though this quickly disappears after the N1 as Haruka state that Tora has been polite during his stay at Lan's house and becomes more respectful towards Lan and decided he was the second best person from the N1 to learn from (the first person being Chaud) and politely but still hot bloodedly challenges Dex to a Net Battle.
* NighInvulnerable: [=KingMan=]'s chess pieces cannot be destroyed. Breaking chips can incapacitate them, but only temporarily.
* ShockwaveStomp: [=KingMan=]'s knights are capable of doing this, unless they land in your left column. [=KingMan's=] Navi chip can also do this if he lands on an unoccupied panel which damages enemies on the four surrounding panels, otherwise, nothing happens, [[FridgeLogic which makes absolutely no sense since [=KingMan=] himself can delete [=MegaMan=] like this and a cutscene shows [=KingMan=] deleting [=FlashMan=] by stomping on him.]]
* UnknownRival: To Chaud.

!!!''Tamako voiced by: Creator/TakakoHonda (JP), Willow Johnson (EN)''
!!!''[=MetalMan=] voiced by: Creator/SusumuChiba (JP), John Payne (EN)''
A lady who runs a gift shop outside the Ura Inn in the third game and a tournament opponent in the fourth game.
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: [=MetalMan=] has some circular blades he can use as an attack.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: [=MetalMan=]'s fist can bypass armor, and is considered of the Break element in the fourth game.
* BareYourMidriff: Her artwork shows her like this.
* BiggerOnTheInside: Tamako does this in her debut episode in the anime popping out of places or objects she shouldn't be able to fit inside of such as a bowl of food.
* CoolAunt: She's Mamoru's aunt, but we never see the two interact.
* DubNameChange: [=MetalMan=] is called Heavy [=MetalMan=] in the anime's English dub.
* EvilCounterpart: [=MetalMan=] has one in the form of Zoano [=MetalMan=].
* {{Extraoredinary}}: [=MetalMan=] attacks with metallic weapons.
* HairDecorations: Tamako wears a buzzsaw/gear on her hair.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Firing missiles is another of [=MetalMan's=] attacks.
* MightyGlacier: [=MetalMan=] in 3 embodies "strong but slow" as he usually stands still while attacking. This is compensated by the metal gears on the field that can hinder Mega's mobility. 4 makes him a little faster however.
* MythologyGag: In the anime during their first battle against Megaman, Megaman gets an upper hand on Metalman by utilizing one of his own sawblades against him. Unlike MegaMan2 however, it isn't a OneHitKill
* PowerFist: [=MetalMan=]'s Battle Chip attack that can break through armor and panels.
* SpiritedCompetitor: She is eager to seek challenges from strong opponents like Lan and [=MegaMan=].
* TookALevelInJerkass: While she is very happy to fight you in 3, her appearance in 4 has her denying Lan from battling her in the tournament just because he failed a SecretTestOfCharacter she set up (never mind that she has absolutely no authority to deny him in the first place), despite them obviously showed their combat prowess in the previous game. She then asks him to go get some "fighting spirit" from her master so that they can beat her in a difficult minigame before their match started.
* WhatTheFuAreYouDoing: At the start of her scenario in ''4'', she asks Lan to break a giant boulder. When he refuses to attempt it, she tells him that she can do it and takes a punch. All she accomplishes is hurting herself. ([[InsaneTrollLogic She then berates Lan for not trying.]])
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chisao Oyama]]
!!!''Voiced by: Creator/TomokoIshimura (JP), Nathan Tipple (EN)''
Dex's younger brother who looks up to him.
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Chisao is far less bratty in the anime. His loyalty to Dex is downplayed and doesn't hold any animosity towards the others and even once rooted for Lan and [=MegaMan=] to defeat Dex and [=GutsMan=] in ''Axess''.
* AscendedExtra: He only appears in 3, 4, and ''Battle Chip Challenge'', but shows up in every season of the anime, not that he does much.
* BrattyHalfPint: When he first shows up in the third game, he blocks the way into the subway station until his big brother, the so-called #1 Net Battler in town shows up but doesn't bother telling anyone who said brother/netbattler is. Then in ''Battle Chip Challenge'', he tells Dex that in order to win, he should get rid of [=GutsMan=] and get a new Navi. Then in the fourth game, he fakes his own kidnapping and forces Lan to waste his time by finding him so that Lan would be disqualified for being a no show at the tournament.
* SupremeChef: He works for WWW's curry shop just like Dex in Stream and is somehow able to make curry sherbet.
* TagalongKid: In the third game and the anime.

[[folder:Mamoru Urakawa ''(Mamoru Ura)'']]
A gentle, shy young boy who's diagnosed with HBD, the same disease that took [[spoiler:Hub's]] life. His mother is the owner of Ura Inn, and Tamako is his aunt. He was about to be operated (for the fourth time) when Anetta and [=PlantMan=] attacked the hospital with uncontrollable vines, but Lan and [=MegaMan=] saves the whole hospital in time for Mamoru's successful operation.
* HiddenDepths: [[spoiler:He explains that the main server of the Undernet is in fact beneath his family's inn, and that his father (a Scilab member) created it for the purpose of containing the Giga Freeze program. He's also the current admin of the Undernet, and it's heavily implied that Serenade (yes, that [[BonusBoss Serenade]]) is his [=NetNavi=] by virtue of their similar emblems.]]
* LittlestCancerPatient: He's younger than Lan when he gets his dreadful disease. Lan's mission is to help save him.
* MeaningfulName: His full name especially (Mamoru Ura) gives away one of the biggest secrets in the game. [[spoiler:"Ura" refers to the "Ura Internet", aka Undernet's Japanese name, and "Mamoru" means "protect", which fits him being the Undernet's admin.]]
* WheelchairWoobie: Always seen on a wheelchair.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=BowlMan=].EXE]]
!!!''Voiced by: Creator/ToruOkawa (JP), Colin Murdock (EN)''
A Navi with a bowling theme associated with the Undernet in the third game's ''Blue'' version.
* AdaptationalVillainy: While he can't be considered a hero in Battle Network 3 since he's associated with the Undernet, he wasn't a villain in any sense either, honoring his agreement of telling Mega Man everything he knows about Serenade if [=MegaMan=] wins in battle. In the anime, he's a Darkloid.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: His bowling pins and balls deal breaking damage.
* AssholeVictim: True, while in the anime he is a Darkloid and thus a villain, it's not like had a choice in that matter as he like, [=ProtoMan=] was turned into one thru a Dark Chip. However unlike [=ProtoMan=], the protagonists never got to knew that fact so unfortunately for him...
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He does not tolerate cheating (or attempts) at bowling.
* EvilCounterpart: To [=MistMan=] in a meta sense. They're both version exclusive bosses and fulfill the same plot role of being the #2 ranked Undernet Navi.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: You'd think a bowling themed Navi would be a joke, but he actually presents a fair challenge.
* IKnowMaddenKombat: A [=NetNavi=] based on a bowler.
* SpamAttack: The attack where he shoots bowling pins at you. It's not hard to dodge and can be easily interrupted, but it does go on for a while.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=MistMan=].EXE]]
!!!''Voiced by: Creator/JurotaKosugi (JP), Creator/RonHalder (EN)''
A genie-esque Navi associated with the Undernet in the third game's ''White'' version.
* AttackItsWeakPoint: When you're fighting him, you're supposed to attack his lamp, not [=MistMan=] himself.
* AdaptationalHeroism: He wasn't really villainous in the games, but he's still associated with the Undernet. In the anime, he's an ally to [=MegaMan=], Lan, and Mayl.
* BadassBeard: Sports a thick one that completely obscures his mouth.
* GoodCounterpart: To [=BowlMan=] in a meta sense. They're both version exclusive bosses and fulfill the role of being the #2 ranked Undernet Navi. Unlike [=BowlMan=] however, [=MistMan=] was not turned into a Darkloid in the anime.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Hilariously justified since he has to obey whoever's holding his lamp. If Mayl is holding it, [=MistMan=] attacks [=SwordMan=] and [=FridgeMan=], if Ms. Yuri is holding it, [=MistMan=] attacks Cross Fusion [=MegaMan=].
* OurGeniesAreDifferent
* PoisonousPerson: He can use mist like poison as an attack.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Dr. Cossak]]
The mysterious creator of Bass.EXE.
* ChekhovsGunman: He first appears as a random passerby when Lan and friends try to enter ACDC Academy to take back Dex's assignment. He later stumbles upon Lan during the [=BubbleMan=] scenario, helping him to compress [=MegaMan=] so that they can go through the narrow tiles in Yoka area and defeat [=BubbleMan=]. This programming skill of his comes up later on when it was revealed that he was the one who created Bass, one of if not the strongest Navi to ever exist.

[[quoteright:247:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tadashihikari.png]]
Yuichiro's father as well as Lan's grandfather. A kind, brilliant scientist who is responsible for the setting of the series due to the society choosing to fund his research over Dr. Wily's. While he was mentioned in the first game he never makes an appearance until the third, where the remains of his data are kept in Alpha (Incidentally, this is also why Yuichiro doesn't want to delete Alpha despite the dangers it can cause if it falls under the wrong hands). The fifth game also reveals that he and Wily used to work on [=SoulNet=] in order to bring peace to the world by linking human souls via the Internet, though they decided to leave it up to their descendants to finish it in the end.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: The reason why Wily is jealous of him and aims for the destruction of the Net society.
* BadassBeard: A long one that makes him resemble Santa Claus.
* ChekhovsGun: ''Anything'' he is involved with is relevant to the plot.
* {{Expy}}: Of the Classic series' Dr. Light.
* ForWantOfANail: ''Battle Network'''s premise is what if Dr. Light decided to focus on networking instead of robotics.
* MeaningfulName: "Hikari" means light while "Tadashi" can mean right, referring to the debate on how his original counterpart's name should be spelled.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died long before the series even began, but Lan and Mega get to meet the data remains of him at the end of the third game.

* ArmorPiercingAttack: [=FlashMan=]'s Navi Chip attack pierces guards in addition to temporarily stunning them.
* CallingYourAttacks: "SHINING BROWSER CRASHER!"
* HeroicRROD: Induces a temporary one by frying Lan's PET.
* LightEmUp: While technically an Elec-element Navi, [=FlashMan=]'s attacks are mostly light-based.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: As much as a StarterVillain can get. When discovered, Rei considers ''killing'' the cast on the spot, although he doesn't follow through with it and settles with hypnosis. Also, rather than stick around for the boss battle, he leaves the scene at first opportunity, having accomplished his mission of taking the [=TetraCode=], remotely commanding [=FlashMan=] to see things through.
* PunnyName: His name sounds a lot like "ray psycho". [=FlashMan=]'s signature move is a ray of light that causes people and devices to go haywire.
* ShockAndAwe: [=FlashMan=] is an Elec Navi.
* SmugSnake: Has the personality of one, and his character sprite is always wearing an arrogant smirk.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Battle Chip Challenge spell his name as "Ray".

* BeastMan: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Ya]] ''[[CaptainObvious think]]''?
* DubNameChange: From [=BeastMan=] to [=SavageMan=] in the anime.
* {{Expy}}: Don't you DARE tell me you took one look at [=BeastMan=] and didn't think he was meant to be the Netnavi counterpart to [[VideoGame/MegaMan7 Slash Man]].
* FragileSpeedster: [=BeastMan=] hits fast and frequently, though not as tough. Later rematches made him a LightningBruiser.
* {{Gonk}}: Inukai is very brutish in appearance.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Has a scratch mark over one of his eyes.
* MixAndMatchCritters: [=BeastMan=] has saberteeth, WolverineClaws, and a [[KingOfBeasts lion's mane]].
* WolverineClaws: [=BeastMan=] attacks with these.
* YouHaveFailedMe: [[spoiler:Wily disposes of them after their failure in the Rankings.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=BubbleMan.EXE=]]]
!!!''Voiced by: Chiyako Shibahara (JP), Gabe Kouth (EN)''
A rather cowardly autonomous (self-reliant) Navi. In the third game, he devises a plan to have washing machines produced by World Three trap users in a sort of bubble bomb. [=DrillMan=] mentions that [=BubbleMan=] is like a close cousin to him.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Episode 22 of ''Axess'' and 14 of ''Stream'' focus on him along with [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=].
* AdaptationalBadass: He's the only Darkloid who managed to avoid deletion and the only one to show up in every season of the anime starting with Axess and when he's [[RedemptionPromotion fighting alongside the good guys]], his combat skills increased; being able to delete some of Dr. Regal's viruses and some Beastized viruses.
* AdaptationalWimp: On the other hand, he can't do anything to hurt [=MegaMan=] in the anime, unlike his game incarnation where his DirtyCoward tactics made him difficult to beat down.
* ButtMonkey: In the anime. He's treated as joke by most everyone, and even [=ShadeMan=] doesn't start treating him any better until he sees that he's the only Darkloid loyal to him, but then he sees [=ShadeMan=] brutally killed by Regal.
* DesperationAttack: He conceals himself in a bubble and starts attacking by rapid firing his harpoon.
* DirtyCoward: He spends an entire ''day'' running like hell from you, and forcing you to chase his goons all over the Internet. Even in battle, he hides behind a rock and a myriad of deadly bubble traps. ''[[UpToEleven And it doesn't end when he dies.]]'' When you can meet him again as a random encounter, he will only appear in Beach Area when you're at critical health. He is a GoddamnedBoss to the core.
* EnemyMine: In the finale of ''Axess'', he helps the protagonists fight off a wave of viruses because they share a common enemy in Dr. Regal. However, he specifically saved [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=], who he'd genuinely befriended earlier.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: In the anime, he does antagonize Lan and [=MegaMan=] occasionally, but he befriends [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=] later. In the last episode of Axess, he helps the other navis fight some viruses to retaliate against Regal for deleting [=ShadeMan=] and helps the others cheer for Lan and [=MegaMan=]. At the end, he brings Rush back to the protagonists after kidnapping him earlier. Then in Stream, he goes back to being a villain, helping [=ShadeMan=] alter the past allowing Darkloids to rule the world, and in Beast, he hands over Trill to the heroes, terrorizes Net City by pretending to be a Cybeast, helps the Cross Fusion Team (sans the ones stuck in Beyondard) fight off the Beastized viruses, and in Beast +, he forms an allegiance with Blackbeard and Yuika.
* IfIWereARichMan: He is in love with money in the manga.
* ISurrenderSuckers: After being beaten in his scenario in the 3rd game he begs Lan and [=MegaMan=] to spare him if he dispels the bubble bomb when [=MegaMan=] and Lan do spare him he then proceeds to attempt to set off the bombs instead he's prevented from doing so when Chaud and [=ProtoMan=] show up and finish him off before he can.
* ItsAllAboutMe: When Mega defeats him in combat, the first thing out of his mouth is whining about how ''you're bullying him''. Nevermind that he's holding thousands of people hostage with explosives, which is why Mega's hunting him down in the first place.
* OddFriendship: Not really friends but by the time he met [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=] in the anime, he was way over-shadowed by more powerful Navis (and was the butt of many jokes among the Darkloids). [=ShadeMan=], however, seemed to have a soft spot for the guy almost bordering on being a father figure (gently inquiring on where [=BubbleMan=] had been). That couldn't last long [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique given what]] [=ShadeMan=] was [[CastFromLifespan using.]]
* MakingASplash: He's an Aqua Navi.
* SpamAttack: His Navi-chip fires a series of harpoons that do separate amounts of damage, meaning that this can cause considerable devastation with Attack Plus chips, ESPECIALLY against [[ElementalRockPaperScissors Fire-element enemies.]]
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the anime, he's the only Darkloid to avoid deletion. Probably because he didn't use any Dark Chips.
* TheSlowPath: Gets stranded in the past after [=ShadeMan=]'s final deletion. He hides for about a decade before Colonel finds him, at which point he's frozen by him until the first episode of Beast which is 5 years from that point.
* UndyingLoyalty: The only Darkloid who didn't betray [=ShadeMan=] in the anime.
* VerbalTic: In Japanese, he appends "puku" to the ends of his sentences. In English, he says "blub" a lot, and his blubs can be interpreted as swearing.

[[folder:Noboru Sunayama and [=DesertMan.EXE.=]]]
!!!''Sunayama voiced by: Creator/KenNarita (JP)''
!!!''[=DesertMan=] voiced by: Creator/KiyoyukiYanada (JP), Ward Perry (EN)''
A flamboyant and very popular television actor, this man arranges the N1 Grand Prix tournament in the third game, which was ultimately an attempt to force Chaud to give up [=ProtoMan=] to him (while holding Chaud's father hostage) and announce the World Three's return live to the entire world. Operator of [=DesertMan.EXE.=]
* AffablyEvil: He's a bit pushy, but is really only interested in entertaining the people and putting on a good show. Even when the full extent of his evil plan is revealed, he's very enthusiastic.
* AttentionWhore: He very clearly wants people to know that it was HIM that beat everyone in the N1.
* DishingOutDirt: [=DesertMan=] is essentially a sand golem.
* GracefulLoser: While he tries to pull a LookBehindYou, he surrenders quietly when apprehended and merely asks that he receives the TV ratings for the N1 Grand Prix.
* IntelligibleUnintelligible: [=DesertMan=] speaks in what one can only assume are sandstorm noises, but the game helpfully provides subtitles.
* KingOfBeasts: [=DesertMan=]'s arms can shapeshift into lion heads.
* LargeHam: [[JustifiedTrope Somewhat fitting]], since he works in television.
* LogicalWeakness: [=DesertMan=] vanishes after every hit... unless you deal [[MakingASplash Aqua]] damage, which turns him to mud and stalls him.
* MeaningfulName: Sunayama roughly means "sand mountain".
* NiceHat: Wears a cowboy hat.

!!!''Anetta voiced by: Creator/RieKugimiya (JP), Creator/MarykeHendrikse (EN)''

In the games, she is a nature-loving woman that has [=PlantMan.EXE=] take over the hospital network, causing the computer-controlled tree of life to grow vines that disrupted hospital services. In the end, she is successful in stealing the third Tetracode from the hospital.
* AdaptationalHeroism: She started out as a villain in the anime, but is nowhere as villainous as her game incarnation. She eventually defects for good.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: This is one of the reasons why [=PlantMan's=] Navi chip is very useful, as it pierces through shields and form under enemies.
* CampGay: Dear Tadashi, PLANTMAN. He constantly spouts [[IncrediblyLamePun flowery]] metaphors relating to plant life, and quite clearly thinks of [=MegaMan=] as impressive. You wouldn't think it'd be healthy for a Wood-element Navi to be so [[IncrediblyLamePun flaming.]]
* DarkSkinnedRedhead: She resembles a dark-skinned Raggedy Ann doll in a lot of ways.
* DubNameChange: From [=PlantMan=] to [=VineMan=] in the anime.
* GreenThumb: [=PlantMan=] is a Wood Navi.
* HeelFaceTurn: Anetta in the anime. She works for Regal at first and attempts to sabotage Chaud and [=ProtoMan=] with a Dark Chip as revenge for [=ProtoMan=] deleting her navi, Silk. Once she realizes it was a misunderstanding, she leaves Regal and exposes him as the leader of Nebula. Afterwards, she occasionally shows up to help Lan and Chaud.
* HospitalHottie: The evil kind.
* ModestyShorts: Wears one under her nurse outfit. The character designer said that it is supposed to indicate that her nurse outfit is a disguise.
* PunnyName: Much like Lan's Japanese name, A'''net'''ta, as in the internet.
* PurpleProse: [=PlantMan=]. Think [[VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}} Balder]] with roses instead of peacocks and you're halfway there.
* ShipTease: In the anime, she is shown to have a crush on Chaud and desires to get closer to him after her HeelFaceTurn.
* StandardStatusEffects: : [=PlantMan=]'s flowers releases pollens that cause status ailments; pink flower causes confusion and yellow flower causes paralysis.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Wily made her join WWW by claiming that the destruction of the Net Society is important to preserve nature.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=DrillMan.EXE=]]]
!!!''Voiced by: Satoshi Katougi (JP), Creator/TrevorDevall (EN)''
Another autonomous Navi of the WWW, he considers [=BubbleMan=] to be somewhat of a cousin of sorts. Wily calls on him in the third game to drill and break through Scilab security and steal the program containing Alpha.
* AxCrazy: "DELEEEEEEETE!" His swirly eyes should indicate how deranged he is.
* TheDragon: To Wily in 3.
* DemotedToExtra: From one of the top players of Wily's second endgame to a MonsterOfTheWeek near the end of the anime's first season. He's not even tied to the WWW there, instead being associated with a OneShotCharacter.
* DynamicEntry: [[spoiler: When he's resurrected as a tank, he very nearly takes out Lan by smashing through the wall.]]
* LightningBruiser: Attacks fast and hard most of the time while being invulnerable to most attacks thanks to his drill head.
* NoKillLikeOverkill: His [=NaviChip=]. Three drills across the board, then he pops out of three enemy spaces, THEN drops rocks on them. Also, [[ArmorPiercingAttack each wave of attack breaks shields]].
* PsychoSupporter: Easily the most crazed WWW member, barring perhaps Wily himself. He's also fanatically loyal to Wily.
* ThisIsADrill: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Well, obviously.]] He even provides the page picture.
* TheUnfought: In the anime, [=DrillMan=] only had three appearances and never fought [=MegaMan=].
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: He loses a ''prime'' chance to kill Lan because he insist on challenging Mega to a fight. [[spoiler:There was absolutely nothing to stop him from attacking a defenseless Lan in his tank]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Alpha ''(Proto)'']]
A prototype network of the internet, it was riddled with bugs that were thought to be of Bass's doing, but were later discovered to originate from Alpha itself. Alpha had become sentient, and its bugs began to absorb networks and causing affected devices to malfunction. All links to the internet were taken down for several weeks while Alpha was quarantined and sealed. Wily seeks to release Alpha in the third game, in which everything by then had some sort of link to the internet, to destroy the world.
* TheAssimilator: After gaining his rudimentary intelligence, it started devouring everything in sight and incorporating itself into anything plugged into the net. [[spoiler: Once Wily starts decoding it, portions broke off and started infecting devices plugged into the net. What tipped off the officials that the viruses causing things go to haywire was that Megaman noted that they were trying to absorb him rather than delete him.]]
* BlobMonster: Some fans think that it's the {{expy}} to the Bio-devils from the original series. With good reason, too.
* ChekhovsGun: First appeared as a harmless little cube guarded by four doors. ''In plain sight'', even.
* DesperationAttack: Two of them. One might as well be a [[NukeEm Nuke]], the other might as well be an electrical {{BFG}}.
* DubNameChange: This one is worth pointing out: it was named Proto in the original, but renamed to Alpha in the dubs to avoid confusion with [=ProtoMan=].
* EldritchAbomination: It's a prototype of the Internet.
* {{Expy}}: Of the [[Anime/DigimonTamers D-Reaper]]. Both are rogue programs that take the form of a BlobMonster, were sealed away in the backstory, can break off parts of themselves to create mooks, desire to assimilate things into their mass and are the final bosses of their respective series.
* FinalBoss: Of 3.
* GenericDoomsdayVillain: It isn't even intelligent, having the mental capacity of an ''amoeba.''
* MeaningfulName:
** It's the ''proto''type of the Internet.
** A piece of software in its ''alpha'' phase is unfinished and in the early testing stages.
** [[spoiler: Its Bonus Boss name in the western edition is Alpha Omega, quite fitting considering he's the first thing you need to defeat to start unlocking content, while his Omega form is the final thing to be unlocked in the game after acquiring all 7 stars.]]
* MeatMoss: The final level is covered in a red gelatious substance, although the way it oozes around makes it look like meatmoss, especially given the color.
* MonsterProgenitor: [[spoiler:It is the source of the [=AlphaBug=] viruses.]]
* NonMaliciousMonster: Compare the Life Virus, which at least has the brutish intelligence of virus-kind. Alpha is basically just a giant amoeba set to "Eat".
* OneSteveLimit: Proto is changed to Alpha in the English version to avoid confusion with [=ProtoMan=] (named Blues in the original Japanese).
* PsychoPrototype: For the Internet itself.
* SealedEvilInACan: It was sealed away after being captured by the net officials, but not before destroying every single piece of machinery it came into contact with. [[spoiler: At the end of the game it's revealed that Lan's dad could have deleted it at any time, but chose not to because it held the preserved data of Tadashi Hikari, his father and Lan's Grandfather.]]
* [[spoiler: SealedGoodInACan: Turns out to be the can holding the data of Tadashi Hikari. However Tadashi isn't banished within Alpha, but willingly sealed himself in along with Guardian so that Alpha can never escape it's own can.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: [[RunningGag You get the idea by now.]] It's alluded to throughout Battle Network 3, but its true nature isn't revealed until the end.

A samurai Navi residing in the secret area of the Undernet and one of Serenade's minions.
* AdaptationalVillainy: He shows up in the anime as an Asteroid Navi and Zoanoroid.
* BladeOnAStick: A laser-pointed spear as his main weapon.
* DubNameChange: The English version of ''Battle Network 3'' changes his name to [=JapanMan=], despite being named Yamato Man in the Classic series.
* InterserviceRivalry: He doesn't get along well with [=DarkMan=] even though they share a common goal; guarding Serenade.
* PunchClockVillain: He sees [=MegaMan=] as a child and feels bad for fighting him, but he's only following Serenade's orders.
* {{Samurai}}: What he is based on.
* SpinToDeflectStuff: He does this if you try to attack him with gun type attacks, including the Mega Buster.
* TinTyrant: Especially as a Zoanoroid.
* ZergRush: On low health, he summons his foot soldiers to swarm the battlefield and steal [=MegaMan=]'s panels.

!!!''Voiced by: Naoki Bando''
An assassin Navi residing in the secret area of the Undernet and one of Serenade's minions.
* CastingAShadow: Can create shadows that shapeshifts into axes and swords.
* DarkIsEvil: Let's just say he's less honorable than [=JapanMan=].
* DirtyCoward: His Beta version doesn't show up unless [=MegaMan=] is suffering a glitch from the Navi Customizer.
* FireIceLightning: Alternates between three colors which determines what element will he use; purple (default) for fire, blue for ice, yellow for lightning. This is an allusion to the multiple entities of his Robot Master counterpart in the Classic series.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Serenade.EXE]]
The ruler of Undernet's Secret Area, Serenade is no. 1 in the Undernet rankings.
* AdaptationalBadass: In the manga, Serenade delivered a CurbstompBattle to Bass the first time they fought, but in the game, the battle took days and was a lot closer.
* AmbiguousGender: In the original Japanese, [[ShesAManInJapan Serenade is female.]] In English, Serenade is consistently referred to with masculine pronouns. However, according to Capcom, Serenade is intended to be seen as a [[UltimateLifeForm perfect being]] [[NoBiologicalSex without gender.]] In the words of a [[LetsPlay/RoahmMythril certain Let's Player]], it's really up to you.
* AmbiguouslyBrown
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: The leader of the [=UnderNet=], a WretchedHive where rule is determined by power. To drive the point home, Serenade.EXE once took on Bass and won when Megaman in 3's story couldn't even scratch him, though by the post game, it's clear that fusing with Gospel has made him the more powerful one.
* BonusBoss: The last one before the fight with Bass in 3's post game.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Serenade is the boss of the Undernet, but their purpose is to guard Gigafreeze in case it needs to be used against Alpha.
* DarkSkinnedBlond
* TheDreaded: A being so powerful that the Undernet denizens are afraid of saying Serenade's full name.
* {{Foil}}: To Bass, both in design and personality. Some fans are quite happy to ship them on these grounds.
* NoBiologicalSex: According to Capcom, but see AmbiguousGender.
* NoPronunciationGuide: It's supposed to be pronounced sair-eh-NAHD.
* OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous: Serenade.EXE, an otherwise normal Net Navi, looks the part, likely to emphasis hir "holy/angelic" feature (and not to mention hir vast powers). Greatly enhanced in the manga adaptation.
* SheIsTheKing: In Japanese. Again, see AmbiguousGender.
* UltimateLifeForm: According to Capcom, although Bass would probably fit the description more accurately.
* YinYangBomb: Possibly, as s/he has powers described as holy and saintly, but Serenade's battlechip is counted as a '''Dark Chip''' in game.

!!!''Tora voiced by: Creator/MasayaOnosaka (JP), Creator/ScottMcNeil (EN)''
!!!''[=KingMan=] voiced by: Keikou Sakai (JP), Creator/ScottMcNeil (EN)''
An initially arrogant boy with a talent in chess. He is a notable N1 contestant that ended up helping Lan and friends in 3's endgame scenario.
* ChessMotifs: His Navi [=KingMan=], who looks like a chess king and uses chips based on chess pieces and tactics resembling chess openings.
* TheChessmaster: On a much smaller scale than normal, but Tora's skill at chess is applied directly to his netbattles. It is surprisingly effective.
* ChestInsignia: A white crown on a black background.
* DemotedToExtra: In the third game, Tora was essentially a second Dex in terms of gameplay, being an ally who could be battled repeatedly for more Navi chips and plotwise, helps the others defeat WWW. Their only anime appearance was in a filler episode during the first season.
* FlunkyBoss: [=KingMan=] commands other chess pieces to guard him in battle while he stays in the back row.
* {{Jerkass}}: When he first meets Lan, he tells him to go home instead of participating in the N1 Grand Prix. Lan justifiably asks him who Tora thinks he is bossing him around like that. Tora responds that kids are mannerless these days and provokes Lan during the N1 announcements and embarrasses him in front of the audience when Mega Man tells Lan to calm down by citing Lan as a baby an needing his Navi to nanny him. And when Sunayama is announcing the contestants, he tells him "Shut up and show us the fight arena!". Though this quickly disappears after the N1 as Haruka state that Tora has been polite during his stay at Lan's house and becomes more respectful towards Lan and decided he was the second best person from the N1 to learn from (the first person being Chaud) and politely but still hot bloodedly challenges Dex to a Net Battle.
* NighInvulnerable: [=KingMan=]'s chess pieces cannot be destroyed. Breaking chips can incapacitate them, but only temporarily.
* ShockwaveStomp: [=KingMan=]'s knights are capable of doing this, unless they land in your left column. [=KingMan's=] Navi chip can also do this if he lands on an unoccupied panel which damages enemies on the four surrounding panels, otherwise, nothing happens, [[FridgeLogic which makes absolutely no sense since [=KingMan=] himself can delete [=MegaMan=] like this and a cutscene shows [=KingMan=] deleting [=FlashMan=] by stomping on him.]]

* ArmorPiercingAttack: [=MetalMan=]'s fist can bypass armor, and is considered of the Break element in the fourth game.
* BareYourMidriff: Her artwork shows her like this.
* BiggerOnTheInside: Tamako does this in her debut episode in the anime popping out of places or objects she shouldn't be able to fit inside of such as a bowl of food.
* CoolAunt: She's Mamoru's aunt, but we never see the two interact.
* DubNameChange: [=MetalMan=] is called Heavy [=MetalMan=] in the anime's English dub.
* EvilCounterpart: [=MetalMan=] has one in the form of Zoano [=MetalMan=].
* {{Extraoredinary}}: [=MetalMan=] attacks with metallic weapons.
* HairDecorations: Tamako wears a buzzsaw/gear on her hair.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Firing missiles is another of [=MetalMan's=] attacks.
* MightyGlacier: [=MetalMan=] in 3 embodies "strong but slow" as he usually stands still while attacking. This is compensated by the metal gears on the field that can hinder Mega's mobility. 4 makes him a little faster however.
* MythologyGag: In the anime during their first battle against Megaman, Megaman gets an upper hand on Metalman by utilizing one of his own sawblades against him. Unlike MegaMan2 however, it isn't a OneHitKill
* PowerFist: [=MetalMan=]'s Battle Chip attack that can break through armor and panels.
* SpiritedCompetitor: She is eager to seek challenges from strong opponents like Lan and [=MegaMan=].
* TookALevelInJerkass: While she is very happy to fight you in 3, her appearance in 4 has her denying Lan from battling her in the tournament just because he failed a SecretTestOfCharacter she set up (never mind that she has absolutely no authority to deny him in the first place), despite them obviously showed their combat prowess in the previous game. She then asks him to go get some "fighting spirit" from her master so that they can beat her in a difficult minigame before their match started.
* WhatTheFuAreYouDoing: At the start of her scenario in ''4'', she asks Lan to break a giant boulder. When he refuses to attempt it, she tells him that she can do it and takes a punch. All she accomplishes is hurting herself. ([[InsaneTrollLogic She then berates Lan for not trying.]])

[[folder:Chisao Oyama]]
!!!''Voiced by: Creator/TomokoIshimura (JP), Nathan Tipple (EN)''
Dex's younger brother who looks up to him.
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Chisao is far less bratty in the anime. His loyalty to Dex is downplayed and doesn't hold any animosity towards the others and even once rooted for Lan and [=MegaMan=] to defeat Dex and [=GutsMan=] in ''Axess''.
* AscendedExtra: He only appears in 3, 4, and ''Battle Chip Challenge'', but shows up in every season of the anime, not that he does much.
* BrattyHalfPint: When he first shows up in the third game, he blocks the way into the subway station until his big brother, the so-called #1 Net Battler in town shows up but doesn't bother telling anyone who said brother/netbattler is. Then in ''Battle Chip Challenge'', he tells Dex that in order to win, he should get rid of [=GutsMan=] and get a new Navi. Then in the fourth game, he fakes his own kidnapping and forces Lan to waste his time by finding him so that Lan would be disqualified for being a no show at the tournament.
* SupremeChef: He works for WWW's curry shop just like Dex in Stream and is somehow able to make curry sherbet.
* TagalongKid: In the third game and the anime.

He was about to be operated (for the fourth time) when Anetta and [=PlantMan=] attacked the hospital with uncontrollable vines, but Lan and [=MegaMan=] saves the whole hospital in time for Mamoru's successful operation.
* HiddenDepths: [[spoiler:He explains that the main server of the Undernet is in fact beneath his family's inn, and that his father (a Scilab member) created it for the purpose of containing the Giga Freeze program. He's also the current admin of the Undernet, and it's heavily implied that Serenade (yes, that [[BonusBoss Serenade]]) is his [=NetNavi=] by virtue of their similar emblems.]]
* LittlestCancerPatient: He's younger than Lan when he gets his dreadful disease. Lan's mission is to help save him.
* MeaningfulName: His full name especially (Mamoru Ura) gives away one of the biggest secrets in the game. [[spoiler:"Ura" refers to the "Ura Internet", aka Undernet's Japanese name, and "Mamoru" means "protect", which fits him being the Undernet's admin.]]

[[folder:[=BowlMan=].EXE]]
!!!''Voiced by: Creator/ToruOkawa (JP), Colin Murdock (EN)''
A Navi with a bowling theme associated with the Undernet in the third game's ''Blue'' version.
* AdaptationalVillainy: While he can't be considered a hero in Battle Network 3 since he's associated with the Undernet, he wasn't a villain in any sense either, honoring his agreement of telling Mega Man everything he knows about Serenade if [=MegaMan=] wins in battle. In the anime, he's a Darkloid.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: His bowling pins and balls deal breaking damage.
* AssholeVictim: True, while in the anime he is a Darkloid and thus a villain, it's not like had a choice in that matter as he like, [=ProtoMan=] was turned into one thru a Dark Chip. However unlike [=ProtoMan=], the protagonists never got to knew that fact so unfortunately for him...
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He does not tolerate cheating (or attempts) at bowling.
* EvilCounterpart: To [=MistMan=] in a meta sense. They're both version exclusive bosses and fulfill the same plot role of being the #2 ranked Undernet Navi.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: You'd think a bowling themed Navi would be a joke, but he actually presents a fair challenge.
* IKnowMaddenKombat: A [=NetNavi=] based on a bowler.

A genie-esque Navi associated with the Undernet in the third game's ''White'' version.
* AttackItsWeakPoint: When you're fighting him, you're supposed to attack his lamp, not [=MistMan=] himself.
* AdaptationalHeroism: He wasn't really villainous in the games, but he's still associated with the Undernet. In the anime, he's an ally to [=MegaMan=], Lan, and Mayl.
* BadassBeard: Sports a thick one that completely obscures his mouth.
* GoodCounterpart: To [=BowlMan=] in a meta sense. They're both version exclusive bosses and fulfill the role of being the #2 ranked Undernet Navi. Unlike [=BowlMan=] however, [=MistMan=] was not turned into a Darkloid in the anime.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Hilariously justified since he has to obey whoever's holding his lamp. If Mayl is holding it, [=MistMan=] attacks [=SwordMan=] and [=FridgeMan=], if Ms. Yuri is holding it, [=MistMan=] attacks Cross Fusion [=MegaMan=].

While he was mentioned in the first game he never makes an appearance until the third, where the remains of his data are kept in Alpha (Incidentally, this is also why Yuichiro doesn't want to delete Alpha despite the dangers it can cause if it falls under the wrong hands). The fifth game also reveals that he and Wily used to work on [=SoulNet=] in order to bring peace to the world by linking human souls via the Internet, though they decided to leave it up to their descendants to finish it in the end.

* HeroicRROD: Induces a temporary one by frying Lan's PET.

* NoNonsenseNemesis: As much as a StarterVillain can get. When discovered, Rei considers ''killing'' the cast on the spot, although he doesn't follow through with it and settles with hypnosis. Also, rather than stick around for the boss battle, he leaves the scene at first opportunity, having accomplished his mission of taking the [=TetraCode=], remotely commanding [=FlashMan=] to see things through.
* PunnyName: His name sounds a lot like "ray psycho". [=FlashMan=]'s signature move is a ray of light that causes people and devices to go haywire.

* ButtMonkey: In the anime. He's treated as joke by most everyone, and even [=ShadeMan=] doesn't start treating him any better until he sees that he's the only Darkloid loyal to him, but then he sees [=ShadeMan=] brutally killed by Regal.
* DesperationAttack: He conceals himself in a bubble and starts attacking by rapid firing his harpoon.
* DirtyCoward: He spends an entire ''day'' running like hell from you, and forcing you to chase his goons all over the Internet. Even in battle, he hides behind a rock and a myriad of deadly bubble traps. ''[[UpToEleven And it doesn't end when he dies.]]'' When you can meet him again as a random encounter, he will only appear in Beach Area when you're at critical health. He is a GoddamnedBoss to the core.
* EnemyMine: In the finale of ''Axess'', he helps the protagonists fight off a wave of viruses because they share a common enemy in Dr. Regal. However, he specifically saved [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=], who he'd genuinely befriended earlier.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: In the anime, he does antagonize Lan and [=MegaMan=] occasionally, but he befriends [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=] later. In the last episode of Axess, he helps the other navis fight some viruses to retaliate against Regal for deleting [=ShadeMan=] and helps the others cheer for Lan and [=MegaMan=]. At the end, he brings Rush back to the protagonists after kidnapping him earlier. Then in Stream, he goes back to being a villain, helping [=ShadeMan=] alter the past allowing Darkloids to rule the world, and in Beast, he hands over Trill to the heroes, terrorizes Net City by pretending to be a Cybeast, helps the Cross Fusion Team (sans the ones stuck in Beyondard) fight off the Beastized viruses, and in Beast +, he forms an allegiance with Blackbeard and Yuika.
* IfIWereARichMan: He is in love with money in the manga.
* ISurrenderSuckers: After being beaten in his scenario in the 3rd game he begs Lan and [=MegaMan=] to spare him if he dispels the bubble bomb when [=MegaMan=] and Lan do spare him he then proceeds to attempt to set off the bombs instead he's prevented from doing so when Chaud and [=ProtoMan=] show up and finish him off before he can.
* ItsAllAboutMe: When Mega defeats him in combat, the first thing out of his mouth is whining about how ''you're bullying him''. Nevermind that he's holding thousands of people hostage with explosives, which is why Mega's hunting him down in the first place.
* OddFriendship: Not really friends but by the time he met [=IceMan=] and [=AquaMan=] in the anime, he was way over-shadowed by more powerful Navis (and was the butt of many jokes among the Darkloids). [=ShadeMan=], however, seemed to have a soft spot for the guy almost bordering on being a father figure (gently inquiring on where [=BubbleMan=] had been). That couldn't last long [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique given what]] [=ShadeMan=] was [[CastFromLifespan using.]]
* MakingASplash: He's an Aqua Navi.
* SpamAttack: His Navi-chip fires a series of harpoons that do separate amounts of damage, meaning that this can cause considerable devastation with Attack Plus chips, ESPECIALLY against [[ElementalRockPaperScissors Fire-element enemies.]]
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the anime, he's the only Darkloid to avoid deletion. Probably because he didn't use any Dark Chips.
* TheSlowPath: Gets stranded in the past after [=ShadeMan=]'s final deletion. He hides for about a decade before Colonel finds him, at which point he's frozen by him until the first episode of Beast which is 5 years from that point.
* UndyingLoyalty: The only Darkloid who didn't betray [=ShadeMan=] in the anime.
* VerbalTic: In Japanese, he appends "puku" to the ends of his sentences. In English, he says "blub" a lot, and his blubs can be interpreted as swearing.

[[folder:Noboru Sunayama and [=DesertMan.EXE.=]]]
!!!''Sunayama voiced by: Creator/KenNarita (JP)''
!!!''[=DesertMan=] voiced by: Creator/KiyoyukiYanada (JP), Ward Perry (EN)''
A flamboyant and very popular television actor, this man arranges the N1 Grand Prix tournament in the third game, which was ultimately an attempt to force Chaud to give up [=ProtoMan=] to him (while holding Chaud's father hostage) and announce the World Three's return live to the entire world. Operator of [=DesertMan.EXE.=]
* AffablyEvil: He's a bit pushy, but is really only interested in entertaining the people and putting on a good show. Even when the full extent of his evil plan is revealed, he's very enthusiastic.
* AttentionWhore: He very clearly wants people to know that it was HIM that beat everyone in the N1.
* DishingOutDirt: [=DesertMan=] is essentially a sand golem.
* GracefulLoser: While he tries to pull a LookBehindYou, he surrenders quietly when apprehended and merely asks that he receives the TV ratings for the N1 Grand Prix.
* IntelligibleUnintelligible: [=DesertMan=] speaks in what one can only assume are sandstorm noises, but the game helpfully provides subtitles.
* KingOfBeasts: [=DesertMan=]'s arms can shapeshift into lion heads.
* LargeHam: [[JustifiedTrope Somewhat fitting]], since he works in television.
* LogicalWeakness: [=DesertMan=] vanishes after every hit... unless you deal [[MakingASplash Aqua]] damage, which turns him to mud and stalls him.
* MeaningfulName: Sunayama roughly means "sand mountain".
* NiceHat: Wears a cowboy hat.

[[folder:Anetta and [=PlantMan.EXE=]]]
!!!''Anetta voiced by: Creator/RieKugimiya (JP), Creator/MarykeHendrikse (EN)''
!!!''[=PlantMan=] voiced by: Creator/HiroyukiYoshino (JP), Creator/BradSwaile (EN)''
In the games, she is a nature-loving woman that has [=PlantMan.EXE=] take over the hospital network, causing the computer-controlled tree of life to grow vines that disrupted hospital services. In the end, she is successful in stealing the third Tetracode from the hospital.
* AdaptationalHeroism: She started out as a villain in the anime, but is nowhere as villainous as her game incarnation. She eventually defects for good.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: This is one of the reasons why [=PlantMan's=] Navi chip is very useful, as it pierces through shields and form under enemies.
* CampGay: Dear Tadashi, PLANTMAN. He constantly spouts [[IncrediblyLamePun flowery]] metaphors relating to plant life, and quite clearly thinks of [=MegaMan=] as impressive. You wouldn't think it'd be healthy for a Wood-element Navi to be so [[IncrediblyLamePun flaming.]]
* DarkSkinnedRedhead: She resembles a dark-skinned Raggedy Ann doll in a lot of ways.
* DubNameChange: From [=PlantMan=] to [=VineMan=] in the anime.
* GreenThumb: [=PlantMan=] is a Wood Navi.
* HeelFaceTurn: Anetta in the anime. She works for Regal at first and attempts to sabotage Chaud and [=ProtoMan=] with a Dark Chip as revenge for [=ProtoMan=] deleting her navi, Silk. Once she realizes it was a misunderstanding, she leaves Regal and exposes him as the leader of Nebula. Afterwards, she occasionally shows up to help Lan and Chaud.
* HospitalHottie: The evil kind.
* ModestyShorts: Wears one under her nurse outfit. The character designer said that it is supposed to indicate that her nurse outfit is a disguise.
* PunnyName: Much like Lan's Japanese name, A'''net'''ta, as in the internet.
* PurpleProse: [=PlantMan=]. Think [[VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}} Balder]] with roses instead of peacocks and you're halfway there.
* ShipTease: In the anime, she is shown to have a crush on Chaud and desires to get closer to him after her HeelFaceTurn.
* StandardStatusEffects: : [=PlantMan=]'s flowers releases pollens that cause status ailments; pink flower causes confusion and yellow flower causes paralysis.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Wily made her join WWW by claiming that the destruction of the Net Society is important to preserve nature.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=DrillMan.EXE=]]]
!!!''Voiced by: Satoshi Katougi (JP), Creator/TrevorDevall (EN)''
Another autonomous Navi of the WWW, he considers [=BubbleMan=] to be somewhat of a cousin of sorts. Wily calls on him in the third game to drill and break through Scilab security and steal the program containing Alpha.
* AxCrazy: "DELEEEEEEETE!" His swirly eyes should indicate how deranged he is.
* TheDragon: To Wily in 3.
* DemotedToExtra: From one of the top players of Wily's second endgame to a MonsterOfTheWeek near the end of the anime's first season. He's not even tied to the WWW there, instead being associated with a OneShotCharacter.
* DynamicEntry: [[spoiler: When he's resurrected as a tank, he very nearly takes out Lan by smashing through the wall.]]
* LightningBruiser: Attacks fast and hard most of the time while being invulnerable to most attacks thanks to his drill head.
* NoKillLikeOverkill: His [=NaviChip=]. Three drills across the board, then he pops out of three enemy spaces, THEN drops rocks on them. Also, [[ArmorPiercingAttack each wave of attack breaks shields]].
* PsychoSupporter: Easily the most crazed WWW member, barring perhaps Wily himself. He's also fanatically loyal to Wily.
* ThisIsADrill: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Well, obviously.]] He even provides the page picture.
* TheUnfought: In the anime, [=DrillMan=] only had three appearances and never fought [=MegaMan=].
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: He loses a ''prime'' chance to kill Lan because he insist on challenging Mega to a fight. [[spoiler:There was absolutely nothing to stop him from attacking a defenseless Lan in his tank]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Alpha ''(Proto)'']]
A prototype network of the internet, it was riddled with bugs that were thought to be of Bass's doing, but were later discovered to originate from Alpha itself. Alpha had become sentient, and its bugs began to absorb networks and causing affected devices to malfunction. All links to the internet were taken down for several weeks while Alpha was quarantined and sealed. Wily seeks to release Alpha in the third game, in which everything by then had some sort of link to the internet, to destroy the world.
* TheAssimilator: After gaining his rudimentary intelligence, it started devouring everything in sight and incorporating itself into anything plugged into the net. [[spoiler: Once Wily starts decoding it, portions broke off and started infecting devices plugged into the net. What tipped off the officials that the viruses causing things go to haywire was that Megaman noted that they were trying to absorb him rather than delete him.]]
* BlobMonster: Some fans think that it's the {{expy}} to the Bio-devils from the original series. With good reason, too.
* ChekhovsGun: First appeared as a harmless little cube guarded by four doors. ''In plain sight'', even.
* DesperationAttack: Two of them. One might as well be a [[NukeEm Nuke]], the other might as well be an electrical {{BFG}}.
* DubNameChange: This one is worth pointing out: it was named Proto in the original, but renamed to Alpha in the dubs to avoid confusion with [=ProtoMan=].
* EldritchAbomination: It's a prototype of the Internet.
* {{Expy}}: Of the [[Anime/DigimonTamers D-Reaper]]. Both are rogue programs that take the form of a BlobMonster, were sealed away in the backstory, can break off parts of themselves to create mooks, desire to assimilate things into their mass and are the final bosses of their respective series.
* FinalBoss: Of 3.
* GenericDoomsdayVillain: It isn't even intelligent, having the mental capacity of an ''amoeba.''
* MeaningfulName:
** It's the ''proto''type of the Internet.
** A piece of software in its ''alpha'' phase is unfinished and in the early testing stages.
** [[spoiler: Its Bonus Boss name in the western edition is Alpha Omega, quite fitting considering he's the first thing you need to defeat to start unlocking content, while his Omega form is the final thing to be unlocked in the game after acquiring all 7 stars.]]
* MeatMoss: The final level is covered in a red gelatious substance, although the way it oozes around makes it look like meatmoss, especially given the color.
* MonsterProgenitor: [[spoiler:It is the source of the [=AlphaBug=] viruses.]]
* NonMaliciousMonster: Compare the Life Virus, which at least has the brutish intelligence of virus-kind. Alpha is basically just a giant amoeba set to "Eat".
* OneSteveLimit: Proto is changed to Alpha in the English version to avoid confusion with [=ProtoMan=] (named Blues in the original Japanese).
* PsychoPrototype: For the Internet itself.
* SealedEvilInACan: It was sealed away after being captured by the net officials, but not before destroying every single piece of machinery it came into contact with. [[spoiler: At the end of the game it's revealed that Lan's dad could have deleted it at any time, but chose not to because it held the preserved data of Tadashi Hikari, his father and Lan's Grandfather.]]
* [[spoiler: SealedGoodInACan: Turns out to be the can holding the data of Tadashi Hikari. However Tadashi isn't banished within Alpha, but willingly sealed himself in along with Guardian so that Alpha can never escape it's own can.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: [[RunningGag You get the idea by now.]] It's alluded to throughout Battle Network 3, but its true nature isn't revealed until the end.

[[folder:[=JapanMan=] ''([=YamatoMan=].EXE)'']]
!!!''Voiced by: Taro Yamaguchi''
[[quoteright:349:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/japanman.jpg]]
A samurai Navi residing in the secret area of the Undernet and one of Serenade's minions.
* AdaptationalVillainy: He shows up in the anime as an Asteroid Navi and Zoanoroid.
* BladeOnAStick: A laser-pointed spear as his main weapon.
* DubNameChange: The English version of ''Battle Network 3'' changes his name to [=JapanMan=], despite being named Yamato Man in the Classic series.
* InterserviceRivalry: He doesn't get along well with [=DarkMan=] even though they share a common goal; guarding Serenade.
* PunchClockVillain: He sees [=MegaMan=] as a child and feels bad for fighting him, but he's only following Serenade's orders.
* {{Samurai}}: What he is based on.
* SpinToDeflectStuff: He does this if you try to attack him with gun type attacks, including the Mega Buster.
* TinTyrant: Especially as a Zoanoroid.
* ZergRush: On low health, he summons his foot soldiers to swarm the battlefield and steal [=MegaMan=]'s panels.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:[=DarkMan=].EXE]]
!!!''Voiced by: Naoki Bando''
An assassin Navi residing in the secret area of the Undernet and one of Serenade's minions.
* CastingAShadow: Can create shadows that shapeshifts into axes and swords.
* DarkIsEvil: Let's just say he's less honorable than [=JapanMan=].
* DirtyCoward: His Beta version doesn't show up unless [=MegaMan=] is suffering a glitch from the Navi Customizer.
* FireIceLightning: Alternates between three colors which determines what element will he use; purple (default) for fire, blue for ice, yellow for lightning. This is an allusion to the multiple entities of his Robot Master counterpart in the Classic series.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Serenade.EXE]]
The ruler of Undernet's Secret Area, Serenade is no. 1 in the Undernet rankings.
* AdaptationalBadass: In the manga, Serenade delivered a CurbstompBattle to Bass the first time they fought, but in the game, the battle took days and was a lot closer.
* AmbiguousGender: In the original Japanese, [[ShesAManInJapan Serenade is female.]] In English, Serenade is consistently referred to with masculine pronouns. However, according to Capcom, Serenade is intended to be seen as a [[UltimateLifeForm perfect being]] [[NoBiologicalSex without gender.]] In the words of a [[LetsPlay/RoahmMythril certain Let's Player]], it's really up to you.
* AmbiguouslyBrown
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: The leader of the [=UnderNet=], a WretchedHive where rule is determined by power. To drive the point home, Serenade.EXE once took on Bass and won when Megaman in 3's story couldn't even scratch him, though by the post game, it's clear that fusing with Gospel has made him the more powerful one.
* BonusBoss: The last one before the fight with Bass in 3's post game.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Serenade is the boss of the Undernet, but their purpose is to guard Gigafreeze in case it needs to be used against Alpha.
* DarkSkinnedBlond
* TheDreaded: A being so powerful that the Undernet denizens are afraid of saying Serenade's full name.
* {{Foil}}: To Bass, both in design and personality. Some fans are quite happy to ship them on these grounds.
* NoBiologicalSex: According to Capcom, but see AmbiguousGender.
* NoPronunciationGuide: It's supposed to be pronounced sair-eh-NAHD.
* OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous: Serenade.EXE, an otherwise normal Net Navi, looks the part, likely to emphasis hir "holy/angelic" feature (and not to mention hir vast powers). Greatly enhanced in the manga adaptation.
* SheIsTheKing: In Japanese. Again, see AmbiguousGender.
* UltimateLifeForm: According to Capcom, although Bass would probably fit the description more accurately.
* YinYangBomb: Possibly, as s/he has powers described as holy and saintly, but Serenade's battlechip is counted as a '''Dark Chip''' in game.
