This article is about a monster in Power Rangers RPM. |
The Generation 12 Reflects Bot is a mirror-themed Venjix Attack Bot. There are two and they serve as the main antagonists of the episode Doctor K.
History
Venjix created two of these Attack Bots, part of his plan to have Tenaya 7 help him in his attack. In a comedic twist, the Reflects Bot revealed his mirrors to Crunch and Shifter, who claimed that the robot might be too ugly for the Rangers to handle, unaware they were looking at their own reflections.
The first Reflects Bot attacked the city in giant size. The Rangers responded with the High Octane and ValveMax Megazords. However, because the Reflects Bot was equipped with a Molecular Mirroring System, he was able to use the mirrors in his chest to copy the Megazord's weapons. He copied Rangers Dillon and Ziggy's Zords for his arms, and used them to take out the ValveMax Megazord. Then he cloned the Super Saber and took down the High Octane Megazord. Just as he was about to finish off the Rangers, the Reflects Bot suffered a complete systems failure and shut down, returning to normal size.
The Reflects Bot was restrained, even though he was offline, and taken to the Rangers' base to be studied. However, this was all part of Venjix and Tenaya 7's plan.
While the Rangers were busy dealing with the Venjix Drones in the city, Tenaya 7 was able to enter the Rangers' base through the Reflects Bot and started attacking.
Venjix then unleashed the second Reflects Bot on to the city in giant form. This one though had some upgrades, as his weapons systems were much like those of General Shifter and Crunch. The Rangers fought him with the High Octane Megazord, but they were no match.
Back in the Rangers' base, Doctor K managed to hold off Tenaya 7. When the evil villainess tried to use the offline Reflects Bot to copy Doctor K's cannon, she instead copied the Overthruster needed for the Rangers to form the new Zenith Megazord. Once Doctor K grabbed and installed the reactor, the Rangers were able to form the Zenith Megazord.
The Reflects Bot tried to copy the Zenith Megazord's weapon system, but before he could, the Megazord kicked the Reflects Bot's chest and broke the mirrors. The Rangers then used the Zenith Megazord's final blast to destroy the Reflects Bot. TV STORY-Doctor K (episode)
