Shield Guard is an enemy from Mega Man Powered Up. Retroactively the earliest-known model of Shield Attacker, it uses a propeller to move unlike its successors, and has a far more fragile shield.

Shield Guard was first available with the release of the Megamix Engine, and thusly appears in the devkits for Make a Good Mega Man Level 3 and Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level.

Behavior

Shield Guards fly straight forward, turning around when they hit a wall or an invisible stopper. Only a select few weapons can damage it from the front, but it is fully vulnerable from behind. Notably, however, Shield Guards are roughly twice as slow as other Shield Attackers, and their shields can be knocked off with the Break Dash or even a Charge Shot, rendering them vulnerable from all sides.

Trivia

With Mega Man Powered Up being a remake of Mega Man, Shield Guard's sprites were designed to fit in with the original game's cruder artstyle (with no shine effects and limited frames).
Shield Guard is, as of MaGMML3, the only Mega Man Powered Up enemy to be included in the MaGMML series.
