Go To

1Medibot is a [[LetsPlay Let's Player]] who specializes in VideoGame/{{Kirby}} games, and often plays co-op with their friend My Name Is Kaz. They and Kaz have also been guest commentators and participants in [[LetsPlay/{{Pokecapn}} Pokecapn's Let's Play's]], including the infamous ''LetsPlay/SonicTheHedgehog2006''. They have guest-starred in other Let's Plays as well, including [[LetsPlay/KungFuJesus Kung Fu Jesus]]'s ''VideoGame/GodHand'' and [[LetsPlay/SomethingAwfulDungeonsAndDragons Wolfshirt's Dungeons & Dragons game]].

3Creator/TwistedPixel commissioned pokecapn, medibot, and the rest of The Posse to do commentary on their Kinect game ''VideoGame/TheGunstringer''.
4
5Their Let's Plays can be found on the [[http://lparchive.org/search/medibot#results LP archives,]] with in-progress ones on [[https://www.youtube.com/user/viciousweasel#p/a their YouTube channel.]] Though future videos are unlikely at this time; all of the channel's videos have been removed and medibot and Kaz have stated on Twitter that they no longer want anything to do with Creator/{{Nintendo}}.
6
7Notable Let's Plays are:
8
9* ''VideoGame/Kirby64TheCrystalShards'', solo.
10* ''VideoGame/KirbySuperStar'', with Kaz as Kirby and medibot as the helper characters.
11* ''VideoGame/KirbysDreamLand3'', with medibot as Kirby and Kaz as Gooey.
12* ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'', with medibot as Kirby and Kaz as Prince Fluff.
13* ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga'', with Kaz as Mario and medibot as Luigi. The game was designed to be a one player game with the player controlling both characters, but they came up with a way to make it a two player game.
14* ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'', [[spoiler:with special guest stars Kaz and Pokecapn, who don't come in until their characters are summoned.]]
15* ''VideoGame/KirbyTripleDeluxe'', solo. [[spoiler:Until Dededetour, when they bring in Kaz.]]
16* "Onion Menu Challenge", Solo. A grab bag of short playthoughs of different games... With Medibot reading the Outback Steakhouse menu over them.

18Co-founder of the Global ''Yoshi's Cookie'' League.

22!!!Provides Examples Of:
23
24* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: For the entire Bean-Bean Kingdom. It's apparently corrupt as hell. [[invoked]]
25* AndThatsTerrible: "Swear words are explosive, and that's terrible for everyone."
26* [[AuthorAppeal Let's Player Appeal]]: The majority of games that medibot has LP'd are ''VideoGame/{{Kirby}}'' games. They even outright state on more than one occasion that they like games with Kirby in it.
27* BadassBookworm: As Miriam Webster, holy librarian of Ioun, who has a book for ''everything.''
28* BonusLevelOfHell: Some of the bonus games for ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn''.
29* CatchPhrase: "Delicious!" Sometimes followed by Kaz saying "Go get 'em!" when they've eaten a power-up.
30** "SUMMON: MEDIBOT!"
31** "Puzzle-solving!"
32** "I/You touched [X]"
33** "[[SequenceBreaking TASed]], losers!"
34* ChallengeGamer: Using [[http://www.twitch.tv/kazeugma Kaz's twitch.tv channel]], they streamed several attempts of themselves attempting the [[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor Pit of 100 Trials]] at stupidly early points in the game. They finally succeed after waiting until they have Vivian to make another attempt.
35** They're a top ten world record ''VideoGame/NoituLove 2'' speedrunner.
36* CrapsaccharineWorld: [[SpikesOfDoom "You grew up in a]] [[EverythingTryingToKillYou rough neighborhood]], [[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn Kirby]]."
37** [[https://youtu.be/hmiyQRCGmGU According to them]], the Bean-Bean Kingdom.
38** Medibot figures this much about Dream Land again in ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland''.
39-->'''Medibot''': The upside is that everything is delicious. The downside is that includes you. You, too, are delicious, and there is something out there that wants to taste you. This is the most dangerous of worlds.
40* {{Crossover}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ivw-9a9HebA& "Now I really want to play]] "[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic in]] [[VideoGame/{{Kirby}} Dream Land]]"."
41-->'''Kung Fu Jesus''': They could have called it (Ripple Field) The Ocean Zone, or something.\
42'''Kaz''': Yeah, well. This would be called Ocean Zone if this were Kirby the Hedgehog, or Sonic in Dreamland or something.\
43'''Kung Fu Jesus''': That would... be an interesting crossover, and something I would want to see.
44* DeathTrap: Medibot and Kaz insult the game's traps and then try to come up with more efficient traps to use in their evil lair.
45* HeroicBSOD[=/=]TenMinuteRetirement: In ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'', whenever Kaz accidentally kills a [[PoisonMushroom Noddy]], he drops out to think about what he's done.
46** HonorBeforeReason: The pre-boss level in world 6 places a Noddy underneath a crusher, and there is no way to save it. As a result, Kaz opts out of the stage entirely.
47* JoinedYourParty[=/=]DropInDropOutMultiplayer: The LP of ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'' starts off as a solo medibot experience. A few minutes into the game, a blue Kirby joins the action, controlled by Kaz as is traditional for multiplayer Kirby games. And then, three levels into the game, [[LetsPlay/{{Pokecapn}} a yellow Kirby]] appears...
48* NoOSHACompliance: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQlFKOV3-zc&t=6m45s Deliberately preferred by Kaz]] as a far more efficient way of disposing of adventurers while saving money than high-cost traps that have their only purpose be to break.
49* MadnessMantra: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyUqmpmQ8Q8 Episode 14 of Superstar Saga]], when Luigi is hypnotized into thinking he's Mario, medibot starts mumbling about how they're Mario and they're the best and they have to save Mario because they're Mario. Mario.
50%% * MundaneMadeAwesome: '''INVINCIBLE CANDY!'''[[note]]Delicious![[/note]]
51%% ** [[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn "Check me out, I am riding on this bear."]]
52%% ** [[ItMakesSenseInContext "We rocket punched a tree in our giant robot machine."]]
53* PhraseCatcher: Whenever a Gordo appears: "Watch out for Gordo. Gordo will '''get''' you."
54* RobeAndWizardHat: Essential for playing ''VideoGame/WarioWare'', as shown [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPZpayljN3M here.]]
55* SdrawkcabName: Kinda. Medibot says that [[VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland Magolor's]] name spelled backwards is Rologam, which everyone playing agrees sounds like some kind of Franchise/{{Pokemon}}.
56* SpecialGuest: Kung Fu Jesus on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ivw-9a9HebA& Kirby's Dreamland 3]].
57-->'''Medibot''': Now, I brought Kung Fu Jesus in as a special happy fun guest commentator -\
58'''Kung Fu Jesus''': No, that's false. I brought myself, thank you very much.\
59'''Medibot''': He was brought in by [[DeusExMachina an unknown force]].\
60'''Kung Fu Jesus''': By my own force...\
61'''Kaz''': Welcome to Level 2! Ripple Field! In the ''game that we're playing''.
62%% * SpoofAesop: In the Kirby 64 LP.
63* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical: InUniverse. During 'Mario Or Luigi: Superstar Saga', medibot and Kaz invoke this by going into [[https://youtu.be/hmiyQRCGmGU an extremely in-depth discussion]] of the Bean-Bean Kingdom's politics and economy, and the implications of its foreign relations with the Mushroom Kingdom despite having never been referenced in prior Mario games.
