** Even of the Mavericks that ''are'' under Sigma's employ in this game, only Cyber Peacock was explicitly corrupted by the Sigma Virus. Magma Dragoon and Split Mushroom joined Sigma of their own free will, the former to have his fight to the death with X and Zero, and the latter seemingly out of gratitude for Sigma bringing him back after his "retirement". [[spoiler:And then there's Double, who's an enigma all of his own that's suggested to have joined Sigma for fun ''and'' killing.]]

A violent clawed lobster/shrimp-based Reploid. There was a programming error in his AI that prevented him from distinguishing between allies and enemies, and thus he attacked anyone indiscriminately. Due to his violent nature, he was sealed away in Dopple Town. During Dr. Doppler's uprising, however, he has now been let loose to wreak havoc in the shipyard.
