Serges (サーゲス?) is one of the X-Hunters of Mega Man X2. An integral part of the trio, it seems that he came up with the Unification and leads the plan with his vast intellect.

In the hidden rooms, he rides a platform and drops mines. He'll also jump in the air and send out shots in a circular motion. But hit him when he's on the platform (and when the shield is down) and he gets knocked down.

When you encounter him again in the second X-Hunter stage, he appears in an enormous machine that takes up the whole side of a screen, with platforms moving up and down. As well as that, the floor is layered with spikes, making this a difficult battle. The best bet is to use the Giga Attack to tear the machine open, and use either Silk Shot, Sonic Slicer or Speed Burner for best results. An easy way to defeat the second part is to get on the part of the tank below Serges and then keep hitting him with fully charged Sonic Slicers,his projectiles can still hit you,but they rarely will as long as you stay below Serges.

Serges also reappears in Mega Man Xtreme. And he has the same vehicle he had in X2. His weakness to Speed Burner remains the same. However, his stage is basically the third X-Hunter stage from Mega Man X2 .

He has a short appearance in the opening scene of the PlayStation version of Mega Man X3.

Although his name was officially translated as "Serges", "Sagesse" would be more accurate, to fit in with his fellow Counter Hunters' names; it is the French word for "wisdom".

[edit] Dr. Wily?

It should be noted that there is a prominent theory that Serges is none other than Dr. Wily. This is because in the Japanese game script, Serges is the only character to have mentioned Dr. Light (Sagesse: Being defeated by the robotic memento of Right...such regret...(Rockman X2 Game Script)). It is also partly to the Manga, which claims they are the same. (Non-Game sources generally create their own theories and ideas, and thus are not normally considered canon.) This comes from the fact that Serges states that the rebuilding of Zero is a Purification. Later in MMX5, Sigma tries to reveal Zero's true power with the virus by Purifying him. Serges has worked with Sigma, seemingly understood Sigma's body and Zero's. Serges built at least one body for Sigma, and possibly the bodies that show up in X4 and X5. The theory that Serges is Dr. Wily is usually shunned because Serges seems to be a minor character, and Capcom hasn't made him a bigger villain (And aside from that, Serges seemed to try and rebuild Zero so they could fulfill a prophecy that related to Zero's original self.). Those that are for this theory simply claim he is, but was a minor character to keep the focus on the main characters, (I.E. Sigma, Zero, X) and build up a mystery.

Another theory claims that Agile, Violen and Serges are all Dr. Wily, just split amongst three minds. But, at least note the resemblance to Wily in both face design, and hairstyle.

It should also be noted that much like Dr. Wily (who usually resorted to a number of gadgets, floating saucers and oversized vehicles) he rarely fought under his own power.
