"Wide-area tactical robot proficient in electronic warfare. Can short-circuit or take over enemy robots through electrical discharge or lightning strikes through remote-control lightning rods."
- Stage Select Description
Mighty No. 3: Dynatron, is a robot with electricity based abilities, and the third member of the Mighty Numbers line created by Dr. White.
Appearance[]
Dynatron's torso is based on a light bulb. Her body has a purple tint to it, and she wears a yellow/black, zigzag, lampshade-like cape that can sometimes be seen through. She has dark skin, red eyes, purple hair, and pointed teeth. Her legs are yellow points that typically are paired together. She has two antennae that resemble white coil wire with yellow interiors. Though her official art shows her hands behind her back, concept art shows that she has clawed hands. She is 191cm/6ft 3 inches tall, and weighs 91kg/201lbs.
Synopsis[]
Dynatron, the third Mighty Number created by Dr. White, fought alongside her siblings in numerous battles within the Battle Colosseum. When a mysterious virus corrupted nearly every robot, Dynatron succumbed to its influence and stormed a Power Plant, attempting to siphon its electrical energy. Beck was sent to intercept her, leading to a battle in which Dynatron was ultimately subdued and restored to her senses.
If Dynatron is defeated before Beck reaches the Capitol Building, she will assist him in the stage by disabling electrical wires, clearing a safer path forward. Later, after the Mighty Numbers were cured of the virus, she joins Beck, Dr. White, and her siblings in an assault on the Cherry Dynamics Robot Factory to shut down the production of malfunctioning robots.
Following Beck’s victory over Trinity in the Battle Colosseum, Dynatron and the other Mighty Numbers were dispatched to recover both Beck and Trinity from the collapsing structure.
Personality[]
Dynatron is a fiery and impatient robot, growing particularly agitated when deprived of the electricity she constantly craves. Despite her aggressive nature, she does not seem to revel in battle, as shown by her uneasy remarks when witnessing Battalion’s enthusiasm during the assault on the Robot Factory. Her speech crackles with an electric quality—she elongates her sibilants, pronouncing s sounds like z to mimic the static of flowing energy. Following her defeat at Beck’s hands, she gradually becomes more cooperative and less impatient.
Abilities[]
Dynatron wields absolute command over electricity, harnessing its power with precision. She can deploy Electric Seeds—small, spiked purple orbs—that redirect her attacks, ensuring her strikes find their targets. These seeds serve as her primary weapon, amplifying both her offensive capabilities and strategic prowess in battle.
Other Appearances[]
In Mighty Gunvolt Burst, Dynatron returns as a boss with an expanded arsenal of electric-based attacks. She can generate spinning electrified sticks, sending them toward the player as formidable weapons. Additionally, she creates mobile energy shields that slide across the floor, acting as both defensive barriers and offensive hazards. When her health drops to a critical level, she unleashes a devastating attack reminiscent of Gibril’s techniques from Azure Striker Gunvolt 2, further amplifying the challenge she presents.
Development[]
Both Dynatron and Mighty No. 8 were meant to be female. While No. 8 changed, Dynatron's gender was kept. The development team started by mixing up possible attacks, placing lightning rods around the arena and on the character. They decided to take an easy to understand motif (electricity) and add new ideas to it. She was then given her purple design and personality. The Development team combined the Japanese god of thunder, Raijin, with everyday appliances, like power cables, outlets, and lamps. Inafune asked the team to make her scarier, hide her hands more, and to slim her legs down, so she looks like she's floating. Kimo Kimo reworked the design and gave her the yellow/black cloak. At first he made her hands little drums and electrodes, before Inafune chose to give her actual hands, which were later made into claws attached to coils. The cloak was reworked to let her open it, creating the final design.
Trivia[]
- Dynatron could be a tribute to Elec Man from Mega Man., as they both have the ability to control electricity.
- She is based off a purple light bulb, which shows she is also likely based off of Bright Man from Mega Man 4.
- She might also possibly be based off of Plasma Man, an early concept design for a Robot Master in Mega Man 9 that eventually became Plug Man.
- Her name might have been derived from the name of Dynamo Man, another electrokinetic robot from Mega Man and Bass.
- Although Mega Man 11 came out several years after Mighty No. 9, it's worth noting that Dynatron is similar to Fuse Man, as they were both created to manage and redirect electrical currents.
- The antennae on her head and disks around her are possibly a callback to ThunderMan.EXE. The disks could also be based on the orbs of Cloud Man.
- Her working design has a slight similarity to Layer from Mega Man X8.
- In Mighty Gunvolt Burst, in an attempt of trying emulate the NES palette limitations, her eyes are displayed as purple instead of red. However, this is also present in her official artwork.
- The main inspiration behind Dynatron's design is Raijin, the Japanese thunder god.
- She's lead character designer KIMO KIMO's favorite character.
