Template:Item The Remote Robot (メカテイルス Meka Teirusu?, lit. "Mecha Tails"), is a robot used by Miles "Tails" Prower in Tails Adventure.
History
The Remote Robot is found in Poloy's Forest after defeating the game's first boss. After this, the robot is equiped to Tails' inventory and can be unequiped by visiting Tails' House. The robot can used for reconnaissance and item collecting. It's ability to tranform into the Sea Fox allows the player to access areas such as Lake Rocky. The Remote Robot is also vital for defeating Dr. Fukurokov.
In the game's end credits, Tails can be seen building a much larger version of the Remote Robot which explodes several times during creation (which is partly due to an interfering Flicky).
Appearance
The Remote Robot vaguely resembles Tails; it is coloured orange and white, and has red and white feet, which mimic Tails' shoes. The overall appearance of the Remote Robot is similar to a quadruped, however the robot only has two legs.
Functionallity
The robots' primary function is as a reconnaissance robot used for surveying areas and collection items, as such, it lacks any offensive capabilites. Its small design allows the robot to travel through small gaps that would be otherwise inacessable. The robot can also transform itself into a small, UAV drone by producing helicoptor rotor blades from its back for futher maneuverability and surveyance. The robot can be recalled at any point and will immeadiantly home into Tails when recalled, the robot also uses this function as a defence mechanism; meaning it will automatically recall when it suffers damage.
The Remote Robot also has the ability to transform itself into the Sea Fox, a small, one-manned submarine, for marine missions.
