"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.
Story[]
Dynatron was the third member of the Mighty Numbers to be created by Dr. White, and, amongst her siblings, participated in many battles which occured in the Battle Colosseum.
When a mysterious virus suddenly caused almost every robot to go berserk, Dynatron was among the many robots who were affected, She then invaded a Power Plant and attempted to siphon all of its electrical energy. When Beck arrived to stop her, Dyna attacked him, but was eventually defeated and brought back to her senses.
If Dyna was defeated before Beck heads to the Capitol Building, she will appear in the stage to disable some electrical wires.
After all of the infected Mighty Numbers had been cured of the virus, Dyna joined them, Beck, and Dr. White in an attack on the Cherry Dynamics Robot Factory to shut down the production of various malfunctioning robots.
After Beck defeated Trinity at the Battle Colosseum, Dyna was sent alongside the other Mighty Numbers to recover her and Beck from the collapsing structure.
Personality[]
Dynatron is a hot-tempered, impatient robot who becomes particularly irate if she is stopped from feeding on the electricity she craves. However, she doesn't seem to relish combat very much, as indicated by her troubled remarks when she sees Battalion's enthusiasm during the attack on the Robot Factory. She voices all of her sibilants (pronouncing s sounds like z sounds) and draws them out to make them sound like crackling electricity.
Dynatron became more helpful and less impatient after Beck defeated her.
Abilities[]
Dynatron has complete control over electricity. She can also send out small purple orbs with yellow spikes (called Electric Seeds) to redirect her attacks on opponents. This serves as her main weapon.
Other Appearances[]
In Mighty Gunvolt Burst, Dynatron reappears as a boss. She now has a new attack where she can create spinning electrified sticks which she can use against the player. She can also create shields that slide around the floor. When her health is low, she performs an attack similar to Gibril from Azure Striker Gunvolt 2.
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.
