Rockman and Forte: Challenger from the Future Theory

Remember my Organizing of the Mega Man Classic Series Era? (found here: https://gigafiction.blogspot.com/2017/08/organizing-classic-mega-man-era.html). Well,I think I found another place for 'Rockman and Forte: Challenger From The Future' (that terrible wonderswan game).

Get This,there's a decent chance that Rockman Shadow's (the villian of the game,who came from the future) era may have taken place.....Between the Original and X Series!

mind blown!

Upon his awakening and destruction of the world during his time period,Mega Man is nowhere to be found,neither is Bass. That's the main reason why he went back in time in the first place,to fight Mega Man and Bass. Now in my post I said that Bass was alive in the "False Future" and that in the "True Future" Mega Man stayed Mega Man,thus R-Shadow was never created in the first place,but that was before I realized that R-Shadow could've revived himself directly after the events of the Classic Series.

But,if Rockman Shadows re-awakening takes place past that time,then most of the "False Future" isn't so false. R-Shadow does destroy the world,but what of X and Zero?They were sealed up in capsules,hidden away,and protected from Rockman Shadow's rage.

And to add more to this theory,Dr.Cain finds X in a destroyed lab belonging to Dr.Light. Keyword: Destroyed! By Rockman Shadow many years (or decades,depending on your perspective) ago! X and his capsule remained intact while the lab was in ruin.

Rockman Shadow was clearly unaware of X and Zero's existence and only knew of Mega Man and Bass,thus believing them to be the strongest robots. So he goes back in time to challenge them.

And here's something else that I forgot about,more evidence comes from Rockman Shadow himself when he claims that in his time,there are no robots left in the world and that he was the only one. This seems to be the case,as there are ZERO mention of robots in the X Series prior to X's discovery. Meaning that Robots were decommisioned sometime prior to R-Shadow's re-awakening. Why? I really wish I knew,though it may have something to do with those "Robot Experation" Laws.

Ya gotta admit this theory holds water. Some of the enemies in the game look like a cross between Classic Series Mechanoids and X Series Mechaniloids. Plus,there's also the Batton Bone enemies,which appear in the game.

So here is how this event will play out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Future (The Real Future?)

After a final 10 year struggle,Dr.Wily Finally surrenders and is jailed. With peace restored,Mega Man is converted back into Rock again.

Dr.Wily from the Present comes to the future and quickly finds out that his future self has surrendered and that Mega Man had been converted back into Rock,Wily gets a nasty idea. He heads to his Future self's Lab to create a futuristic Robot that can help him Kill Mega Man. He creates a Mega Man clone to help him,but abandons him after a programming error.

So,instead of fixing up the Mega Man clone,Dr.Wily just finds and reprograms the Mega Man of that time period. Dr.Wily captures Future Rock and turns him into Quint,to prevent a time paradox. After Dr.Wily fixes the Time Skimmer,both he and Quint return to the Present,where the events of Mega Man II GB will take place.

Quint returns to the Future and Future!Dr.Light turns him back into Mega Man. Dr.Wily escapes prison to continue his wonderfully wicked work. Mega Man continues to fight for everlasting peace.

Protoman helps his brother when needed. Bass continues his ways,though he still opposes Wily from time to time. Bass' mission to destroy Mega Man and become the strongest Robot continues. And Roll tries her hand at fighting evil.

Protoman eventually dies due to his faulty core. Years later,Mega Man,Bass,and Roll all die of "old age".

In early-21XX(very early),Dr.Wily completes Zero,his Ultimate Creation. Upon activation,Zero goes crazy and starts destroying everything. Zero is eventually stopped thanks to a sharp pain in his head that shuts him down. Dr.Wily seals Zero up in a capsule,with plans on fixing him later. Dr.Wily grabs a nap and then dies in his sleep.

Just a single year later,Dr.Light completes His Ultimate Creation,Mega Man X. Concerned about X's potential as a threat,Dr.Light seals him up and begins a 30-year "test" of his reliability.

After delivering a message to the people of the future,Dr.Light retires. He dies a year later. Now,a month after Dr.Light's death,the abandoned Android comes to life and is angry and self loathing. He rebuilds himself into a Super Fighting Robot known as Rockman Shadow. He then recruits 7 Prototype Robot Masters that Future Dr.Wily had created,but never used.

Looking for a battle challenge,Rockman Shadow seeks out Mega Man. He fails to find him,so he seeks out Bass instead. Again,he fails to find them.

He then hears that both Mega Man and Bass have died. Pissed off about the lack of strong opponents,Rockman Shadow takes his anger out on the Planet,completely unaware of X and Zero's existence. R-Shadow decimates the World with the aid of his Robot Masters,now known as The Dimensions.

Soon after the near-destruction of Earth,Rockman Shadow decides to go back in time to fight Mega Man and Bass,who were the worlds strongest at the time. After stealing an experimental time portal creator from the Chronos Institute,Rockman Shadow and his Minions head into the Past (our present). This leads into the events of Rockman and Forte: Challanger from the Future.

Rockman Shadow never returns home. A few years later,the survivors begin rebuilding the world.

These events are a combination of the "False Future" and the "True Future". However,it should be noted,that the events of Rockman and Forte: Challenger from the Future and Rockman Shadow himself,may or may not exist within the Main Timeline.

I dunno about you,but I think Rockman Shadow's era taking place between the Classic and X series has merit. It just kinda makes sense.

Before,I wrap things up,a lot of you are wondering why I don't call Rockman Shadow,Mega Man Shadow? After all,here in the west all Rockmen are known as Mega Men.

Well,it's because he's from a Japanese-Only game on a Japanese-Only System.

Well,any other questions reguarding this topic? No? Then,I'll be going.

Until Next Time,
Stay Gold,Space Cowboy
