* AnArmAndALeg: Mouse lops off Gigabyte's claw arm so Bob and Dot can escape from him.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: Gigabyte's claws tear clean through Bob's armour, forcing him to put on bulkier gear when he starts his plan. It doesn't do much better.

Gigabyte, hoping to wear him down through attrition. The Good news is, they do a pretty good job stalling for time as the sector detaches from Mainframe. The bad news is, Hack gets stabbed anyways and drained of his energy. But the good news is, they're far enough away from the city now that Gigabyte would drain himself before he could fly there...until Slash punches him back in to the city in a fit of rage.
* EnergyAbsorption: Gigabyte's main form of attack.attack and defence, but he can only drain energy with his claws.



* GodzillaThreshold: Gigabyte represents such a threat that Bob issues a Net wide alert calling all Guardians for assistance, something he's never done before now.

Added DiffLines:

** Cutting off his arm just makes him grab it and stick it back on the stump.
* RedRightHand: Gigabyte's claws reach almost to his ankle.


Added DiffLines:

* UnderestimatingBadassery: Slightly. Once Gigabyte returns from the detached sector and penetrates the Principal Office, he balks at the sight of Enzo and [=AndrAIa=] confronting him. Then they sic Frisket on him. Bob takes a while catching up, arriving just as Gigabyte tosses a drained Frisket aside. Frisket managed to stop the Supervirus dead in his tracks, even if for a few nanos.

* GoingToGiveItMoreEnergy: Bob's plan to defeat Gigabyte is to give him a tear. While this does give him access to a huge amount of energy, while he's occupied trying to absorb it, Bob is able to turn the tear into a portal with which he can use to split Gigabyte back into his component parts.

* WorfHadTheFlu: As Nullzilla existed to drain Hexdadecimal's power, she is to weak to defend herself from Megabyte. Conversely, this means Gigabyte doesn't have the energy to use any of Hexadecimal's powers.
