Shadow Hunter (シャドウハンター) is a classification given to weapon-wielding combat Reploids who are not Maverick Hunters, wielding their weapons for selfish means instead.[1] The term is only used in Mega Man Xtreme, describing the duo of Geemel and Zain.
Description[]
The two known Shadow Hunters, Geemel and Zain, were rumored to have been involved in a number of unsolved crimes over the years.[2] Sigma tried to convince them to join his war on the Maverick Hunters, but after they refused, he was forced to defeat them to get them to submit.[3] They were then assigned to work with Techno to hack the Mother Computer of Hunter Base. While trying to stop X in cyberspace, the Shadow Hunters were both defeated, deleting their digital forms and rendering their corporeal bodies inoperable.
