The Rubberobos are at it again, however, Rokusho shows up just as
they are about to steal another medal from a young boy. The angry gang try
to attack Rokusho, but the ice breaks from beneath their feet, and they sink
into the icy river. Later that day, while trying to explain their misfortune,
their leader asks for a description of the righteous bot. They tell him
Rokusho is a stag beetle type, a loner who lives along the river. Their leader
seems to know about him. He tells them Rokusho is an early KWG-type..one of
the first created using a rare medal and any direct attempt to overpower him
would fail.
In another part of town Ikki and Metabee have singlehandedly defeated all of
the screws. After the battle they encounter Rokusho whom Metabee is anxious
to robattle. Rokusho is not interested in robattling. Suddenly, their
conversation is interrupted by desparate cries for help. It's Karin, and the
Rubberobos are chasing her. Rokusho, Metabee, and Ikki save Karin and the
mysterious box she is holding. Karin opens to box to show them a badly
beaten up parrot. It's Baton!!! It seems Baton and Rokusho were both
apprentices of Dr. Hushi. Back at Ikki's home it looks as if Baton
has died, but Ikki's mother realizes the parrot was simply a robot in
need of repair. Karin takes them to Dr. Aki's home, because he has the
equipment needed.
Henry is chopping wood for Dr. Aki. Suddenly they spot some of the
Rubberobos spying on them. Henry goes after them on his motorbike
while Dr. Aki picks up an axe to defend himself in case they return.
In another part of the house Rokusho is trying to repair Baton. When
Baton's memory chip is effected by a power surge, he begins revealing
events that occurred the day of the fire. Unbelievable...he is saying
that Dr. Aki is responsible!! Rokusho sees Dr. Aki with an axe and
thinks he has come to finish him off. Angry and determined to avenge
his medafighter, Rokusho attacks Dr. Aki. Luckily the Phantom Renegade
intervenes. During the scuffle between Rokusho and the Phantom papers
are scattered all over, and some fall dangerously close to the
fireplace. It isn't long before those papers ignite, and Dr. Aki's
mansion is in flames.
The confrontation between Rokusho, The Phantom, and Dr. Aki takes
to the roof as fire engulfs the rest of the house. At Karin's
request Ikki and Metabee break through the firemen's barricade
to rescue Dr. Aki. Metabee and Rokusho robattle. It doesn't look
good...Rokusho has thrown all of his rage from the loss of
Dr. Hushi at Metabee. Suddenly Rokusho begins to glow and his
strength has increased. The ultimate power of the rare medal
is revealed as Rokusho gains the "medaforce". Metabee is easily
defeated and sent flying into the flames below, however, the
medaforce has left Rokusho feeling exhausted. Oh No!! Can it
get any worse??? The dreaded Robo-emperor appears and wants
Rokusho's rare medal....End of Part I.
I don't know about you, but I thought this was a great
episode!!!!
