Synopsis[]
Doctor Man sends Fara and Psygorn to pursue Mika Koizumi about Bioman, even though she had quit the team while the other members try to win her back onto their side.
Plot[]
In Neo Grad Base, Doctor Man punishes Meison for his failures. He then orders Fara to find out who are the Biomen. Meanwhile, the Biomen are practicing flying the BioJets, with Red1 and Pink5 in BioJet-1, and Green2 and Blue3 in BioJet-2, and Peebo acting as mission control. Peebo orders them to go find Mika, whose whereabouts are unknown.
Mika is riding a motorcycle when it suddenly goes haywire, throwing her off. Fara appears, alongside her bodyguard Faracat and the Beastnoid Psygorn. Fara interrogates Mika, and when she doesn't answer Fara orders Faracat to attack Mika. Mika successfully fights off Faracat impressing Fara with her skills to ward off her bodyguard, however while she nearly gets away, Psygorn immobilizes her with his telekinesis and throws her against a mountain. BioJet-1 detects Bio Particles nearby and they find Mika running from Neo Empire Gear. As Psygorn nearly burns Mika alive with his flame thrower attack, Red1 jumps in front and protects Mika. Green2 and Blue3 arrives in the Bio Turbo, and the rest of the team jump in to escape.
The Biomen plead with Mika to come back to the team. Mika tells the story of her brother, who was also a cameraman, who died. She wants to honor his memory and photograph the wildlife in Africa that he loved so much. Shirou replies if she can be touched by that story, then she should hear out Peebo's story. Mika relents, and travels with them to the Bio Base. Entering it, Mika is amazed by the large vehicles stored in the hangar. Shirou explains Peebo came to Earth 500 years ago from the planet Bio with his world's scientific knowledge. As Peebo appears and guide them to the main room, Peebo continues that his people has progressed science in the wrong direction, resulting in the planet's destruction. But before that, the inhabitants decide to protect the Earth, as according to legend it is the most beautiful planet to have ever existed. Mika questions why was she chosen, and Peebo explains that when he arrived on Earth 500 years ago, five people were showered with Bio Particles, and the five people before him are their descendants, who have inherited the Bio Particles within them.
Fara, Faracat, and Psygorn alongside a squadron of Mechaclones drive around the town as Psygorn uses his telekinesis to destroy things like trucks and power plants. Bio Base detects the attacks and sounds the alarm. Mika, filled with determination, joins the Biomen for good. They transform, and head out in the BioDragon. Mirage Fighters shoot lasers at the BioDragon, but its tough armor manages to shrug off their attacks. The BioDragon counterattacks, destroying them with its laser cannon. Meanwhile, Doctor Man sends out the Mecha Gigan Devil Canth to wipe out the Biomen.
The Biomen arrive in front of Fara, and Fara sends out a group of Mechaclones to fight. As the Biomen gain the upper hand, Faracat and Psygorn join in. Psygorn manages to gain an advantage, with his telekinetic attacks and teleportation disorienting the Biomen. Using her electronic brain, Yellow4 creates a holograph which shows where Psygorn went, and Red1 uses his radar to find the Beastnoid's location. They find Psygorn, and defeats him with the Bio Revolver attack.
Devil Canth appear, and the Biomen board the BioDragon, which opens up to reveal the Bio Jets. The two Bio Jets combine into the Bio Robo, and battle the Mecha Gigan. Devil Canth tries to constrict the Bio Robo, but the mecha uses the Super Maser to destroy the snake-like protrusion. Devil Canth was destroyed with the Dashing Beam. The Biomen celebrate yet another victory against Neo Empire Gear.
