- ―PharaohMan, Mega Man Network Transmission
PharaohMan.EXE (ファラオマン.ＥＸＥ Faraoman Eguze) is a solo NetNavi that appears as a boss in several games of the Mega Man Battle Network series. The legend says PharaohMan was a Navi used by the king of a super-ancient civilization. Modern NetNavi research theorizes he's a remnant that manifested in the cyberworld.[1]
Appearance[]
Whereas his Robot Master counterpart is modeled after an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, PharoahMan is modeled as a statue-like Navi. He has a golden yellow body with three teal linings on his lower body, white wings on the back, black silt on his face, white nose and red eyes. PharaohMan has two gray floating arms with red lining on each of them, cyan hands with brown fingers on each of them, and teal rings on each of his wrist.
Personality[]
PharaohMan has been mainly shown to be arrogant toward others because of his great power and ruthless towards his enemies.
History[]
Mega Man Battle Network[]
PharaohMan appears as a secret boss. To encounter him, the player must have beaten the Life Virus and reached at least Level 70. After the first fight with him in Internet Area 12, he will reappear as a random encounter in that area from then on.
Mega Man Network Transmission[]
MegaMan battles PharaohMan.
PharaohMan appears as the guardian of the data of the Legendary WWW Area when MegaMan attempts to retrieve WWW data from the area. The two engage in battle and PharaohMan is defeated, allowing MegaMan to collect the OldData.
When PharaohMan is defeated, the player either receives an Anubis Battle Chip or a PharaohMan Battle Chip.
Interestingly, before the fight, MegaMan comments how he hadn't seen that Navi type before, implying the post-events for the first are non-canon and this may be his only canon fight with MegaMan, assuming he didn’t just forget.
Mega Man Battle Network 2[]
PharaohMan appears in the WWW Area 1 and tries to stop MegaMan from advancing, but is defeated. He then reappears in that area for rematches.
Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge[]
Although PharaohMan does not physically appear in Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge, he and PlanetMan.EXE were mentioned by Mayl Sakurai in Guardian Tournament.
Other media[]
Anime[]
MegaMan NT Warrior[]
PharaohMan in the anime.
PharaohMan was given a much more notable and significant role from within the anime series as it's revealed that PharaohMan himself is an extremely powerful solo NetNavi who was created 20 years ago by Tadashi Hikari (the father of Yuichiro and grandfather of Lan), being intended to monitor and guide the flow of data across the Net and had full access to it as a result, but had to be sealed away due to him being infected by a virus that made him power-hungry and megalomaniacal.

Manga[]
MegaMan NT Warrior[]
PharaohMan in the manga.
In the manga, PharaohMan appears in Volume 3 and 4. In this version, he is portrayed a bit more comical, often falling down when getting angry and requires help to get back up although he still shows an air of authority and great wisdom along with a strict, almost no-nonsense attitude. He tests MegaMan by making him fight four great warriors which assume his image as well as style-changing to upgrade themselves. After realizing what MegaMan has that the warrior doesn't, MegaMan then gains the ability of Perfect Synchro, as well as Hub Style. PharaohMan and the four warriors then ascend into the "afterlife" after Hub Style's energy surge.

Trivia[]
- PharaohMan was conceptualized to have an operator who would wear a one-eyed mask and a green cloak. This idea was scrapped and he has no operator in the final game.[8]
- PharaohMan's Japanese voice actor, Keiji Fujiwara, also voices Mr. Famous in the anime.
- PharaohMan's stage music contains a brief portion of his Robot Master counterpart's theme. This is also the case for FireMan.EXE and GravityMan.EXE.
