Duo is an extraterrestrial robot who first appeared in Mega Man 8. He is a "space police" robot with a strong sense of justice and a sworn duty to preserve peace in the universe. A key part of his mission is locating and destroying the mysterious Evil Energy wherever it appears.

Duo appears in Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero as a main charater, appearing near the end of Chapter 2 in S.R.A.R.A. HQ as a boss. Afterwards, he plays a major supporting role throughout Chapter 3, particularly in Null and Void.

Duo is first seen in the form of a blue meteor that impacts the island SRARA's hideout is situated on, alerting both Agent Krantz and Zero to its location. As Zero reaches the deepest part of the base, he runs into Duo purifying an Energy Element corrupted by Evil Energy, before the latter detects his status as one of Dr. Wily's robots and attacks him. After a short battle, Duo is convinced of Zero's morality despite his origins, and explains he detected a surge of Evil Energy on Earth following SRARA's escape into Tier X. After elaborating on the nature and properties of Energy Elements, he uses Zero's Elements to open a portal to Tier X, allowing the two to chase after them. After a confrontation with SRARA in Tier X, Duo provides Zero with co-ordinates to a number of Energy Elements within Tier X, before the two decide to split up and gather as many as they can before SRARA does.

Some time later, at Null and Void, Duo stays behind to contain the numerous Energy Elements converging there while Zero pursues SRARA. During the final battle with SRARA, he flies by after each member's defeat with a large health pickup for Zero. Shortly after Zero defeats Unununium, he witnesses the resurrection of his old enemy Trio, and works together with Zero to defeat him once again. During the fight, he attacks Trio with star-shaped projectiles, forms a shield to reflect Trio's screen-wide spread of projectiles, and charges up an attack to break through Trio's shield once the latter is backed into a corner. During the fight, Trio is capable of damaging Duo, and though he is unable to be destroyed, he will be rendered immobile for several seconds if he takes enough damage.

After Trio is destroyed once again, Duo is prepared to take the Energy Elements away to fully cleanse them of the energy corrupting them, but is persuaded by Zero to temporarily leave them in his care so that he can battle Mega Man one more time. During the credits, he is seen encountering Silver the Hedgehog in the depths of space, to help him with what is implied to be a Genesis Portal/Wargate.

Battle

Duo uses a number of attacks in a specific order.

• Duo starts the battle by rising into the air, transforming into a small meteor, and bouncing across the arena. While transformed, he is completely invincible. Gradually, he slows down and stops before aiming directly at Zero for one more impact attempt before transforming back into his normal state.
• Next, he raises his fist and charges towards Zero's x-position; once reaching it, he slams his fist down and creates two shockwaves on either side of himself, as well as two arcing shots that create another set of shockwaves once landing on the ground.
• His third attack has him fly to either side of the arena and fire four stars into the sky. Four volleys of stars fall from the sky soon after, their formations altering with each other. Zero is able to avoid damage by standing in between two falling stars.
• Duo then fires a star at the centre of the arena, creating a star-shaped turret that fires up to eight small stars directly at Zero while Duo flies in the air, tracking Zero's movement. This is followed by him diving down and punching the ground, removing the turret.
• After repeating the shockwave punch attack, Duo forms a shield of ten invincible stars around himself while jumping after Zero. Every second, a star breaks off from the shield and fires itself at Zero.
• Finally, he becomes a meteor once again and bounces across the room, leaving stationary bullets in the air as he moves. Once he slows down and stops, these bullets drop to the ground, forcing Zero to find space between them. From here, Duo repeats his pattern by repeating the shockwave punch again.
