Several early game Mavericks were also Zero's comrades. Blast Hornet for example was stated as being his second in command in the Special 0 Unit.

it also doesn't help that he has pretty much amnesia at the start of the MMZ series, so of course dude's kind of a quiet blank slate there initially.

I mean, X4 is pretty much destiny rubbing is balls into zero fate: colonel, Iris, finding out he is willy robot and that sigma being evil is kinda your fault......

X4 is pretty grimdark for him.

I'm embedding the trailer because old Mega Man/Proto Man/Roll is a trip (Turn on CC for English captions)

this is the actual bridge between Classic and X tongue

Mega Man has descended into idol hell

Macross was a mistake

So was darling in the franxx but that's irrelevant

[up] With all of the subjects you brought up, I'd argue that the real mistake was Arguments About Quality, but that's just me.

Woudln't be the first time weird things happened to them—in the Ruby=-Spears cartoon Mega, Rush, and Roll got turned into cave-bots with a virus.

You know, this may be how Rock got the name "Quint" in Mega Man II due to being a 5th idol...

A lot people ask "what happened to Mega Man and friends between series", but I ask "what happened to technology between series?". 21st century is close to Reploids anyway since Robot Masters are sentient and have personalities, they just have limitations to them and lack free will. When X was discovered in the 22nd century, we're back to mostly mindless Mechaniloids. Dr Cain found X's lab when he was researching fossils, so unless Light stored him in some sort of desert what happened?! Was there some sort of societal collapse? Did the writer's seriously not think robotics wouldn't advance in 100 years?

I've often thought that the X series probably needed to be an alternate timeline like the Battle Network series.

A timeline where instead of making Mega Man and the robot masters, Light kept plugging away at the X project.

There's a lot of inconsistencies between Classic and X that really were never intended to be dwelled deeply on.

The whole 'only Reploids have free will' seems to me an Informed Attribute, especially in the comics/manga.

Sometimes I wish they'd just gone ahead and made X a separate timeline.

Was that what they originally planned? o.o

According to this Zero aand Wily were connected as early as 1993, before Bass was a thing. Wily based Zero on Protoman's design, died as soon as Zero was completed, and the virus turned Zero good because he was originally the baddest of the bad.

Zero was at 256 evil and the virus just made the counter roll back over to Zero.

That evil computer virus Wily infects Mega Man with does appear to be the Maverick Virus.

According to the Rockman Zero Collection Timeline, Dr. Light made X with a perfect virus countermeasure because of an unknown computer virus of alien origin that caused robots to become violent and riotous. This virus is rumored to be a precursor of the Maverick Virus.
