Fanon is a portmanteau of "fan" and "canon"; that is, fanmade takes on what might be true which cannot be officially confirmed, but are popular enough in fandom to have a following as explanation or fact.
Examples of fanon within the Zoids fandom include:
- The Descendant Theory
- Fan-made Zoids mistaken for official, such as the Glow Fox
- Fan-invented terms for the various model lines: OJR ("Original Japanese Release"), NJR ("New Japanese Release"), NAR ("New American Release"), etc
- Fan assumptions about Zoid capabilities, such as the Dark Spiner's infamous Charged Particle Cannon or the Gun Sniper Leena Special's supposed inability to use its sniper rifle
- The existence of Ultimate Xes other than the Liger Zero and Berserk Fury
- Fan-invented names and terms being used in lieu of official names, such as "Geno Breaker Psychosis"; "Giga Gojulas"; "Pierce Sniper"; "Liger Zero Hailstorm"; "Crystal Saurer"; "Super Charged Particle Cannon"; "Frontal Force Shield", etc.
