Arukoitan

**Arukoitan** (アルコイタン) is a bipedal Reaverbot from the *Mega Man Legends* series. They are commonly seen on Kattelox Island and Ryship Island.

They are very common in the Underground Ruins and Sub-Cities.

They are also very mobile and can attack with fireballs or kick the target if the enemy is within very close range to the Arukoitan.

The Arukoitan is often paired with an Orudakoitan, which transmits orders to Arukoitan. If the Orudakoitan is destroyed, the Arukoitan will cease functioning and just stand still with its head continuing to spin around. If the Orudakoitan is destroyed first, the Refractor shards it yields upon destruction are far less than if they are not disabled prior to defeating the Arukoitan.

Not all Arukoitans are paired up with an Orudakoitan and vice-versa.

In The Misadventures of Tron Bonne there is also a much faster and more powerful Arukoitan that is pink or purple in color that is called the **Koltkoitan** (コルトコイタン *Korutokoitan*)  controlling a group of invincible slower green Arukoitans called **Jeepkoitans** (ジープコイタン *Jīpukoitan*) that are the guardians of the Yellow Aurora Stone in the Shala-Kun Ruins. There is only one normal Arukoitan with an Orudakoitan in Shala-kun Ruins, and it attack with flames instead of their usual fireballs.

## Appearances

### *Mega Man Legends*

in the first *Mega Man Legends* the Arukoitan are very large reaverbots that stand upright. They have a large point sticking out from the top of their heads and large tube-like mouth that is used to shoot out fireballs as an attack. They have smaller bodies with very large, long legs with shield-like feet.

They are mostly a light blue with only their legs and mouth being white in color.

Arukoitans are frequently found throughout the underground ruins and the Sub-Cities on Kattelox Island.

They are mostly paired up with another Reaverbot that has a similar appearance to the Arukoitan that are known as Orudakoitan. The Orudakoitan act as a satellite or a control system that feeds commands off to the Arukoitan it is connected to.

If the Orudakoitan is destroyed, the Arukoitan will stop functioning completely. It will only stand motionlessly except for the head which will continue to rotate around in circles.

When the Orudakoitan is destroyed first, the amount of Refractor shards left behind the afterward destroyed Arukoitan will be significantly less then if the Arukoitan was destroyed first.

There are also Arukoitan and Orudakoitan that operate without being paired to their counterpart.

### *The Misadventures of Tron Bonne*

In *The Misadventures of Tron Bonne* there is only one Arukoitan that is found in the Shala-Kun Ruins paired up with an Orudakoitan. This Arukoitan, however, shoots a stream of fire instead of the usual fireballs that most Aryukoitans attack with.

There is another Arukoitan that is called a Koltkoitan. It is pink or purple in color. It is much faster and more powerful than an average Arukoitan and acts as the leader of a large group of green Arukoitans that are known as Jeepkoitans.

The Jeepkoitans are invincible and cannot be damaged. The only way to disable the Jeepkoitan is to first destroy the leader of the group that is known as the Koltkoitan.

The Koltkoitan and Jeepkoitan protect the Yellow Aurora Stone.
