- "He's just a Haiker N, but big. In fact, I think the G stands for "Grande"."
- ―Yamato Man on the Z-Phone, Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero
Haiker G appears in Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero as the midboss of Wicked Waterworks. As the name suggests, it's a larger variation of Haiker N, with slightly different behaviour.
Strategy
It shoots 2-3 spheres of water about every second, targeting slighty in front of the player, that when land spread into 3 smaller projectiles, similarly to Salt Water. Avoid by dashing below them towards Haiker G or by jumping over said projectiles. After this, it will shoot 4 Numetall slime shots upwards twice that will rain down on the player, slightly alternating where these will land after the first shot. Stand in between these to avoid the attack, or use the rightmost corner just next to the midboss which serves as a safespot during the second wave.

Trivia
- The midboss was originally planned to be the boss of the level, as a Haiker N on wheels, using similar attacks to Nitro Man, however was converted to a midboss instead when it swapped places with CWU-41B. An object that was used by the original Haiker G for one of its attacks still remains in the game files and is never used.
- Haiker G spawns an invisible wall while its alive, rendering Icicle Buster, Icicle Burst and Zap Drive completely useless against it.
- The suffix 'G' is a reference to Mega Man Star Force series, where giant versions of enemies have a 'G' suffix attached to their names, though without spacing.
