It's commonly believed that Serges is Dr. Wily in some form since his Japanese dialogue has him name dropping Dr. Light and referring to X as "Rock" by mistake, but there's an alternate explanation for this: He's simply a Reploid (and a very smart one as established by his stats) that has studied the history of 20XX. We know that Dr. Light was a public figure based on the lore of the Classic series so if Serges didn't already know of Light- which would be hard to believe considering how important Light was in the field of robotics and Serges' own expertise in the same field (as evidenced by his ability to rebuild Zero), it wouldn't have been hard for him to find information on the guy; and based on the message Light left with X's capsule (the one seen in the intro of ''X1''), him being X's creator would likely be public knowledge as well. As for Serges calling X "Rock" by mistake, while we don't know if Mega Man himself was a public figure, Dr. Wily definitely was; and it's highly unlikely that the hero who repeatedly foiled Wily's often very public attempts at world domination would have managed to completely stay out of the public eye. Mega Man was either a public figure himself (more like a public hero if he was) or his existence was a rumor that survived into 21XX, either way, there's enough info out there that a smart Reploid well-versed in 20XX history would either outright know of him or put two and two together based on the rumors; thus him mistaking X for Mega Man himself for a moment (something many fans themselves have done over the years). In other words: Serges doesn't have to be Wily to know about Dr. Light and "Rock"(man) since the former was a known public figure and the latter likely was as well.

[[WMG: X is the original Mega Man rebuilt.]]
It was confirmed that Zero was created by Dr. Wily to combat Mega Man. So perhaps Zero, being as powerful as he is, damaged Mega Man so badly, that he had to be rebuilt by Dr. Light into a more enhanced version of himself, and X is the result.

[[WMG: Terror Teddy will feature as a maverick, finally giving Grayson Schuler the spotlight from his Nintendo Power submission.]]
Terror Teddy sounds suitable for a maverick boss, in a simiar vein to Crecent Grizzly. In reference to all the fabric patches holding the original character together, Terror Teddy could be a junk themed robot similar to Junk Man and have a weasel companion who acts as a SupportPartyMember.

* Alternatively, Bass could have taken Duo's advice that there's good in him and wanted to start anew after suffering an identity crisis with his new sense of justice that he accepted. He could have been captured by Mega Man or even voluntarily surrendered himself to Dr. Light due to Dr. Wily abandoning him in favor of his Zero project. He was overhauled and improved Bass into X with the Treble Boost being the basis of the man leg enhancement parts. Perhaps the original Bass still remained subconsciously and helped reinforce X's conscience from his own experiences with being a villain. The replacement of the Bass Buster with the X Buster helped to further reinforce the new identity.

*** All we know is that Cain Labs made Repliforce and for some reason they had HonorBeforeReason to the point of suicidal stupidity. I was trying to explain ''why'' they were so stubbornly loyal and why they were programmed that way beyond simply 'because we need an excuse for a game'. My ''X4'' manual is buried deep in my garage, but I've checked [[http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Mega_Man_X4 the wikis]] and nothing there explains why they were fanatically loyal nutcases. There's a reason why people scratch their heads on why Colonel and the others were just so unreasonable and somewhat disturbingly cult-like (the salute, anyone?), even on this very wiki (see Headscratchers, WhatAnIdiot, etc). It might be just me, but I wanted to come up with an actual ''reason''. Anyone get what I'm trying to say, here?

[[WMG: Zero has a perfected Double Gear system built directly into his body]]

X and Zero are said to have similar specs under the hood to the degree that they have very similar schematics in X5, but Wily gave Zero a trump card to overpower X. Where X has the potential for unlimited growth, Zero's integrated Double Gear gives him the sudden surges of strength and speed that lets him prevail even against enemies that are seemingly built stronger. Remember when he tore Sigma's arm clean off in a single surge of berserk strength? Just for that critical moment, he instinctively fired up a full Double Gear boost, and quickly darted under Sigma's outstretched arm and beam saber to knife-chop right at the weak part of his shoulder joint with all his strength.

[[WMG: Repliforce was over-reliant on heavy weaponry]]
Repliforce boasts that it was the most powerful army in the world and managed to take over several cities at the outbreak of the war, but they got thwarted by maverick rioters during the events mentioned in the manual. What might explain this difference in capability? During the riots, they were presumably told to avoid collateral damage, whereas during the war, they showed themselves perfectly willing to commit war crimes on a massive scale (video games: Storm Owl attacked civilian centers as distractions, Jet Stingray blew up a still-populated city. Manga: Jet Stingray caused a massive refugee crisis and cut power to hundreds of thousands of families, Web Spider boobytrapped dead Maverick Hunters and almost burned down a city, Slash Beast drove a super train through a populated city, and Frost Walrus was hunting prisoners of war for fun). So, they might be the most powerful army in the world, but they seriously struggle against any opponent they can't just carpet bomb into submission.
