"What? Monokuma? Lady Palutena… I think we already covered him before." Pit shrugs upon seeing the image of a Monokuma-esque teddy bear.
"Hellloooo, anything in that empty brain of yours?" Viridi yells into Pit's ear. "You blind? This bear is all black!"
Sure enough, this Monokuma unit is all black, donning a fedora, tie, a gold necklace and an eyepatch covering its button eye. This makes his menacing red eye all the more emphasized. It's almost like this teddy bear was taken from the stereotypical mindset of what a gangster would be like.
"This is Kurokuma. Originally, he was created with half of the AI made to replicate Junko Enoshima after the real self's death. He acted as an advisor to a group of homicidal children named the Warriors of Hope." Palutena introduces.
"…Wait." Pit's eyes appear shocked and bewildered. "Homocidal… children?"
"Yup. These humans are so cruel, even kids can be corrupted! They killed adults left and right thinking it's an act of justice. How barbaric!" Viridi huffs.
"We can go in depth about them later, but when all's said and done, the original Kurokuma was deactivated and his AI was used to orchestrate a new digital Killing Game." Palutena explains. "Years later, when Monokuma joined LOSE, he chose to create a new Kurokuma with a new purpose."
"This Kurokuma is LOSE's eccentric engineer and inventor, programmed with the knowledge of technology throughout the entire multiverse. He's built weaponry, cloaking devices, mechs and elaborate setups to trap the Skylanders."
"So… what did the original do?" Pit asks.
"Blabber on and barely be useful." Palutena bluntly reveals.
"Well, I can see why they made the change." Pit shrugs.
"He still yammers on in his grating accent and foul mouth, which is annoying to even LOSE themselves. But he's far too useful to take him offline. He's no slouch in a battle either, being a weapons specialist. Open his chest, and an entire arsenal of guns will pop out and fire a barrage of all kinds of ammunition." Palutena snaps her fingers.
The image changed showcasing Kurokuma with his chest open. Sure enough, protruding from it contains Gatling guns, cannons, lasers, grenade launchers and more.
"Taaaalk about overkill…" Pit mutters. "Why is it that right now I'm scared of him more than Monokuma?"
"I'm more scared about the innuendos he'd say." Palutena comments.
