Genesis Unit

The Genesis Unit is a group of Robot Masters created by Dr. Wily, and later recreated by him in the Skull Egg Zone.

History
The members of the Genesis Unit-Buster Rod G, Hyper Storm H, and Mega Water S-had previously been defeated by Mega Man, but were time-cloned by Dr. Wily and Dr. Eggman in the Skull Egg Zone. The trio, teamed with Copybot, attacked their old enemy and his allies-Sonic the Hedgehog, Proto Man, Rush, and Tails-as they made their way into the zone to search for the missing Dr. Light and Sonic's missing allies. While they proved to be formidable adversaries, they were unable to overcome their respective opponents. Once Mega Man had defeated Copybot, he joined Sonic and Tails in defeating their enemies, and Proto Man finished off his opponent. However, the trio were later recreated again as part of a massive army of Robot Masters led by Rouge Woman against the heroes and their assembled allies. (SU: #52, StH: #250)

Background Information

 * The Genesis Unit's name comes from their appearance in Mega Man: The Wily Wars, a Mega Man game released on the Sega Genesis. Ironically, this was also the system that the first Sonic the Hedgehog games were released on.
