Mega Man?, known as Rockman? (ロックマン？?) in Japan, is a boss from Mega Man Powered Up that the player faces when playing with a Robot Master on his own level. He is not the real Mega Man. In the dialogue exchange between the player Robot Master and Mega Man, he will tend to try and pass himself off as Mega Man and convince them to join up with Dr. Wily, frequently using lingo or terms appealing to the particular Robot Master. Most of the Robot Masters see through his façade, but Cut Man seems to be naive to the point where he believes that he is the real Mega Man (though he still does not take the bait to join up with Wily). Mega Man? is identical to the original in appearance, but wears a purple scarf, has a triangle faced down in the helmet instead of a square, and has a more hostile expression on his face.
Mega Man? attacks by shooting and sliding, and after losing half of his energy, he will also use charged shots, which counts as his super attack. Like all Robot Masters, he is invulnerable during the duration of his super attack while charging his shot, and for a brief moment after he fires. He always fires a single regular shot before he begins charging for his super attack.
Mega Man? may simply be the Copy Robot loaded with Mega Man's data.
[edit] Trivia
His actions are much like what Proto Man was trying to do in the American released cartoon show. He may in fact be a tribute to the shows variation of Proto Man, or Proto Man disguised as Mega Man. Note that in the first episode, Proto Man tries to convince Mega Man to join Wily by being brotherly and friendly. Note they are both renegades, both wear scarves, and have similar abilities. Finally look at the fact that they were both programmed by Dr. Wily (TV show and Powered Up) to be mysterious deceivers and act like brothers to the opposing sides heroes.
