Continuing from our last episode, Ikki's mom has been taken captive by the
Rubberobo gang. Their plan is to lure Ikki to their hideout so they can get
their hands on Metabee's rare medal. With only a few hours left before the
robattle finalists are announced, Ikki is forced to make a choice between
his mother or the World Robattle Championships. The choice was easy...MOM!
Using a map the Rubberobos had left at his home, Ikki and Metabee approach
the hideout. Inside Mrs. Tenryou has been charming the Rubberobo's by mending
their uniforms and cooking soup for them. This makes them more reluctant to
release her. Gilgirl is first to challenge Ikki as "Gilda Girlecova" with her
Tiger-type bot Spiritus and Dragon-type bot Seagaru. Since Ikki has never
robattled Gilgirl under her real name, he has the opportunity to gain a point
in the standings if he wins. The battle commences. Spiritus with its driver
claw attack and Seagaru with its laser attack and tough armor gain the upper
hand until Metabee learns that those two bots never got along in the past.
Metabee cleverly gets them to fight with one another distracting them long
enough to use his seeker missiles. Function Cease!
Metabee wins the battle, but is left with some damage after getting a
little too close to his own missiles. But it's not over! Now Shrimplips and
Squidguts challenge with their bots Gokudo and Gobanko. Metabee has already
battled these bots so no points will be gained, however, for the release of
Ikki's mom this battle means everything. Poor Metabee is getting trashed by
the strength of these bots.....UNTIL... The determination to save Ikki's
mother has brought out the MEDAFORCE! Again Metabee is victorious, but
he is left totally exhausted.
With the impending release of Mrs. Tenryou, the whole Rubberobo gang begins to
attack. Out of nowhere, Arcbeetle and SpaceMedafighter X appear to save Ikki,
unfortunately, the underground hideout is brought down in the process. Our
heroes escape unharmed as the Rubberobos retreat. A helicopter arrives with
Koji, Erika, and the others. Koji pleads with Ikki to find another contender
since there was still 30 minutes left before the standings were announced.
Ikki refuses claiming Metabee has already taken enough damage.
As the minutes tick away....SpaceMedafighter X taunts Ikki calling him a
quitter and dishonorable with no will to succeed. This angers Ikki into
challenging the No. 1 ranked medafighter into a robattle. Will this robattle
give Ikki a shot at the championships??? I'm biting my nails waiting....oh
the anticipation!!!

Are you sure? It looks different. (Ikki)
That's cause it's not in crayon, and there's no stick men! (Metabee)
Hear that! She won't share her soup with us! (Squidguts)
Oh no! What will we do!?! (Shrimplips)
Wait'll she wins the robattle...then when she's eating her victory soup, you
distract her....I'll soak up what I can with a breadstick!! (Seaslug)
That's right Squidguts...victories in the air....I can smell it!! (Seaslug)
