Fox Kids Oct 6, 2001 Medabots S1 Ep 7 Cyandog Bites Back

Spyke and Cyandog get thrown out of the Screws after an embarrassing eleven straight losses while Samantha and Sloan have twenty-two wins together for the gang's sake. To compensate, Spyke tried to obtain at least one victory, so he challenged three preschoolers. The three little children as it turns out are all vicious Medafighters with a cute but powerful teddy bear Medabot, Churlybear, and Cyandog loses the Robattle. Erika saw what happened and published it on the news, which angered Samantha. Later on, Metabee helps Cyandog redeem himself. While futilely attempting to train Cyandog to hit things with his weapons (The poor Medabot having no aim at all), Ikki and Salty discover the reason the dog Medabot is so weak. Cyandog has a Monkey Medal (made for close combat Medabots) which is incompatible with his shooting type parts, which Spyke bought because he thought it looked cool. Ikki is stuck at what to do since Spyke won't consider getting a shooting type Medal (as this would change the personality of his friend), nor get a close combat type body. Erika runs up to them and tells them that Samantha is going to challenge the Ankle Biters. Samantha challenged the three kids that defeated Spyke and Cyandog, but her Peppercat was beaten into submission. It's up to Spyke, the last of the Screws, to win. While Spyke is initially petrified of the battle, Ikki decides to help the poor boy out and lends him an edge, a Decoy Crab Medapart that is actually compatible with his Medal. With it, for the first time in his life, Cyandog actually becomes a competent battler, hammering into his opponent, much to everyone's shock. It gets a little sketchy, but the end result is Spyke getting his first ever Robattle victory. Feeling confident, he challenges Ikki and Metabee to a Robattle, but he loses and Samantha considers throwing him out again.
