―SRARA Joe, Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero

SRARA Joe is one of the members of SRARA, and a major antagonist in Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero. They are a blue and white Sniper Joe with a siren atop their head, and are a philosophical romantic with a predilection for flowers. They're also the most mechanically capable of the squad, having built themselves a personal armed helicopter instead of upgrading themselves.

They are first encountered with the rest of SRARA in Mega City, but don't take an active role in the story until Chapter 2, where they appear as a roaming boss on the overworld after gathering nine Energy Elements from that chapter's levels (excluding Construction of Constructions). However, if the player ignores them too many times, SRARA Joe will automatically go to wherever the player currently is, making them a mandatory fight. They are also refought in Null and Void with the rest of SRARA, where they have faster movement and altered attacks.

Battle

Like the rest of SRARA, SRARA Joe follows a set pattern that loops.

• From their helicopter, they fly back and forth while shooting aimed projectiles at Zero and dropping skull bombs. In Null and Void, the bombs are replaced with missiles that create short shockwaves on inpact.
• After flying to a lower height, SRARA Joe directly follows Zero while dropping missiles that create shockwaves. After dropping three missiles, the helicopter crashes into the ground and creates a larger set of shockwaves before rising back up. In Null and Void, the height of the shockwaves is increased.
• SRARA Joe jumps out of the helicopter and performs a series of mid-air teleports, each time creating two fluttering rose petals that damage Zero. After a certain number of times, they teleport to the right side of the arena. In Null and Void, each teleport creates four rose petals.
• Hiding behind a shield, SRARA Joe throws three small Wargates into the air, which move left while aiming projectiles at Zero. In Null and Void, they also shoot arcing projectiles.
• Finally, SRARA Joe jumps around the arena while shooting a triple shot of slow projectiles. At the same time, the helicopter drops more missiles on its own. Eventually, SRARA Joe teleports back into the helicopter, and repeats the pattern.

Trivia

• Unlike other Joes, SRARA Joe's sprites indicate they have two normal eyes behind their visor, instead of a single red one.
• SRARA Joe is the only SRARA member whose sprites weren't made by Enjl. While he did make a sprite for them (in which they resembled a purple Returning Sniper Joe in a hat), it was scrapped in favour of the final design by Cresh.
• SRARA Joe is the only SRARA member to lack sunglasses on their design (although their visor manages to pass off as a pair). They are also the only member not to perform a "sunglasses shine" effect in their intro animation.
• If SRARA Joe's helicopter falls onto Zero and/or SRARA Joe during the latter's defeat animation, it will bounce off of them before hitting the ground.
