**Acid Man** (アシッドマン Ashiddo Man) is a Robot Master who appears in **Mega Man 11**. He's one of the main characters of *The Gear Heroes: Friendship is Powerful*. He's a cutting-edge scientist robot whose field is advanced chemistry. He never hesitates to leap into the chemical tanks to check the mixtures, in turn, making him an excellent swimmer. His Special Weapon, Acid Barrier, generates a shield made of acid that not only protects him from all damage, but also lets him shoot globs of acid at enemies.

Acid Man represents the **Element of Science**.

## Personality

Acid Man is the most intelligent and intellectual member of the Gear Heroes and very dedicated to his work. Described as a perfectionist by nature, he always ensures that all chemicals are measured out exactly and will throw a tantrum if any measurement is tampered with or ruined. His employees bots call him "Acid Merman" because of his flamboyant way of swimming through chemical tubes, which Acid Man gets quite upset about. He often uses his experiments and his intelligence to save the day, but sometimes he uses them to show off since he likes to receive the attention from others, although that makes him silly because he forgets how important friendship and teamwork are. However, he's still a gentle robot and always willing to help others by giving them advice, either about an experiment or life. Very few people understand his scientific vocabulary and difficult or unknown words.

## Abilities

### Special Weapons

* **Acid Barrier** - Thanks to his attack's unique chemical structure, Acid Man can create a powerful shield around himself that disintegrates enemies in seconds. He envelopes himself in a large bubble of acid that protects him from damage that has to be destroyed in order to damage Acid Man.

## Weaknesses

* **Block Dropper** - Due to the Block Dropper's unique chemical properties, it can deplete his shield rather effectively.

## Other facts and trivia

* His manufacturer, Mecha-Chuchets Institute of Robology (マチャチューチェッチュ工科大学 "Machachuchetch Institute of Technology" in Japan), is a reference to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
* Acid Man is the second acid-themed Robot Master after Toad Man.
* Acid Man's weakness to Block Dropper might be a reference to acid bricks, a type of brick that is highly resistant to chemicals. It might also reference to how earth minerals can absorb acid more effectively than other materials.
* Acid Man is the only **Mega Man 11** Robot Master that did not appear in any preview videos for the game that were released by Capcom prior to the games' official release.
