Overview
The Ultimate X is described as a legendary Zoid of extraordinary power, shrouded in rumour and widely considered to be nothing more than a myth. There are only two Ultimate X Zoids: the Liger Zero and the Berserk Fury. The secret of the Ultimate X lies in its Organoid System (not to be confused with literal Organoids or the Organoid System of the Battle Story). It is described as a self-supporting artificial intelligence system that allows the Zoid to learn and develop on its own. As a result, every time an Ultimate X is defeated, it emerges with even greater power than before. Ultimate X Zoids, therefore, appear to be fully sapient beings, posessing far greater intelligence and autonomy than their merely sentient, animalistic brethren.
Ultimate Xes act upon their own whims and desires and are extremely fickle. Only special "chosen ones", such as Bit Cloud and Vega Obscura, are capable of piloting an Ultimate X; character seems to matter more to them than skill, as the Liger Zero systematically rejected pilots who had greater skill and experience but chose Bit after he treated it with respect rather than a simple machine to do his bidding. (If only more humans could be so discerning about their partners!) When Bit took it for granted or tried to boss it around, the Liger Zero ignored him.
