Evolves into Cat Machine Mk 2 at level 10.

Evolves into Cat Machine Mk 3 at level 30 by using Catfruit.

Pros

• Massive damage and stamina.
• Resistant to Red Enemies & Alien Enemies.
• Only knocked back when killed.
• Short recharge time for an Uber Rare.
• Good cost.
• Evolved Form is immune to Shockwave, True Form cancels Shockwaves.

Cons

• Very long attack animation.

Strategy/Usage

• Cat Machine's asset is his gargantuan attack power and stamina. Against powerful Red and Alien enemies, it will make an indestructible wall thanks to its resistance.
• Once in True Form, Cat Machine will be valuable in late Legend Stages for his ability not only to be immune to Shockwaves, but to protect units behind as well. This works especially well against Berserkory, Elizabeth the LVIth, Two Can, Youcan and Axoloty as Cat Machine only receives 1/4~1/5 damage from the direct hits of these enemies and takes no damage from their Shockwaves, effectively making it 1/8~1/10 damage.
• The first two forms have a bad combination of sluggish movement speed and a long attack animation, but in True Form, Cat Machine's movement speed is perfect for an Uber with a long attack animation. Mk 1/Mk 2 has a bad habit of lagging behind your meatshields, and don't catch up to a knocked-back enemy before your other attackers do. Mk 3 is more diligent so it can reliably arrive at the scene in time when it is needed. Once it fires a shot at its victim to knock it back, MK 3 can catch up to it before your other attackers do.
• Regardless of its form, if you plan to make use of Cat Machine's attack bursts, don't let Cat Machine's target get knocked back. In most circumstances the meatshields will gain ground, leaving this battle-bot to fire at the ground in embarrassment!
