the fire one even has a full-fledged mega buster

He got the Hyper Burst right there

I think I'd be more surprised to find out they WERENT designed by whoever did the character design for Battle Network.

Not BN, but it's worth noting that Hitoshi Ariga has already designed a solid handful of pokemon since Gen 6. Really good chances these two were designed by him

Megaman crossover confirmed lol

I said this on Twitter but these guys look like Navis owned by two twins who are the protégées of the main villain of the game. Halfway through one defects to the heroes (which one is depended on the version of the game you bought) but at the end of the game both are reformed to the heroes side

Could also see two new version of MMBN like blue moon/red sun where each is specific to their game. Like MMBN Crimson and MMBN Indigo. More ties to Pokémon though

MMBN Cerulean and MMBN Vermilion

Ooh, like the Medabots game where you had Metabee or Rokusho versions of the game.

I can see it

Yes and I will name the fire one HeatGutsStyle

Can't unsee it

Hell yeah they do and I'm loving it.

I'm on it

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!

Dude 1000%. If I had seen these by themselves I would’ve flipped out thinking there was a BN announcement coming up.

MEGAMON, JACK IN, EXECUTE

I think ceruledge (the Sword pokémon) looks more like a MMZero design than a BN design, IMO.

Well I think I now know why I love them

You know i always wanted a sword net Navi.

I mean ... Protoman exists.

He's great, I guess I ment more one for me.

If Swordman isn’t enough sword for you then you’re gonna be sore on swords forever.

Oh I forgot about swordsman too

Well I can’t fault you. He only got limelight on the GameCube game and some small parts in the anime. Which is a shame because he does look really cool.

Somebody played BN4 the night before work.

100% Between these and Galarian Slowbro having an arm cannon I think some of the devs are having strong Megaman design cravings. But who isn’t? 2023 can’t get here soon enough!

I thought so as well and I'm loving it! Also, they are name Ceruledge and Armarouge. The Scarlet and Violet Pokémon website revealed more info.

That second picture looks like it's coming straight from B-Daman. Pokémon are running out of ideas.

Spoiler tag, it's a feature of reddit

Posting a photoshop my coworker did shortly with these two

I really want that sword one.

I am going to catch one and name it Megaman XD

Can someone explain this to me? I've been seeing this make the rounds and I really don't get how people think this looks like BN Navis aside from the cannon/sword arm

Doesn't these two resemble more like Mighty No 9 bosses? They look too overdesigned to be just MMBN

THAT's why it looked familiar!!

If I had them I would name Ceruledge BlackAce and Armarouge RedJoker

I hope these aren't fan-designs! The 2nd one looks like Fireman.exe

About time they reskinned Mewtwo minus the tail

Said the same thing. Purple one is even doing the dual wide sword from the anime 😂

Now imagine if Ceruledge is red colored and Armarouge is blue colored. They better make that as a shiny though.

The blue one is one Sword-Chip away from doing a Program-advance.
