History[]

Rockman X Giga Mission[]

Pranara DD, alongside Saktira CC, was created by Isoc using Dr. Doppler's old research on the original Nightmare Police, Bit and Byte, combined with the Extreme parasite. Pranara's design seems to be based more heavily on Byte than Bit. He and Saktira CC are deployed to search for Zero, after his disappearance following the events of Mega Man X5.

X is deployed to investigate when there are reports of Pranara DD's investigation in the remains of the Space Shuttle. Pranara summons Slash Beast EX to fight him while he departs.

Once the Extreme parasite within Saktira CC takes over her body and transforming into Nichts using Zero's Z-Saber, Pranara DD is present while X fights Nichts. When Nichts loses the fight, he forcibly absorbs Pranara DD into his body to become Chaosbrahman-Orochi. However, X is still able to destroy Chaosbrahman-Orochi.

Etymology[]

• Like the Japanese names of the original Nightmare Police, Pranara DD's name is also based on Hindu terminology as his name is derived from the word "prana", meaning vitality or life force.
