River Saucer (リバーソーサー) is a KAP-type Medabot that first appeared in the original Medarot game.
Description[]
River Saucer's design is based on a kappa, an aquatic creature from Japanese folklore. The "saucer" in his name may refer to the water-filled dish on a kappa's head, which is said to be the source of the creature's power.
River Saucer's right and left arms can be respectively translated as "Cucumber Bomb" (cucumber being the kappa's favorite food) and "Lotus Bomb". His leg parts appear to be a combination of sango shou (coral reef) and Sa Gojō (a popular character that is sometimes depicted as a kappa in Japan).
River Saucer's legs are designed for swimming, and his arms are equipped with attacks specialized for underwater combat. His signature attack is a powerful beam, which he fires from the dish on the top of his head.
In the games[]
River Saucer is an aquatic-type Medabot with a Beam attack on his head and Anti-Sea shooting attacks on both of his arms. His arms and legs have the Anti-Sea attribute, which makes him highly compatible with the Kappa Medal.
Medarot[]
In the original game, having either of River Saucer's arms equipped gives all of his attacks a bonus against other water-type Medabots. Although not the strongest Beam attack in the game, River Saucer's head part has moderately high power and can pierce multiple parts, making him useful early in the game.
River Saucer's parts can be obtained from random battles in the harbor town area at the beginning of the game.
Medarot 2[]
River Saucer's parts are not normally obtainable in Medarot 2, and instead need to be transferred over from Medarot 1. He was replaced by the new KAP-type, Kappalord.
Here, because the mechanics for Anti-Sea attacks were changed, River Saucer's arms were changed to use standard Anti-Sea shooting attacks.
River Saucer was not included in the Medabots (GBA) remake.
Medarot R[]
River Saucer is obtainable from Medarot R Parts Collection by fighting Medafighter 7, who is ranked opponent number 18.
In the anime[]
