MegaPod

The MegaPod is a new vehicle used by Team Lyoko in the fifth season to travel through the unprediectable Cortex sector.

Description

This new vehicle was designed by Jeremie after the use of Team Lyoko's original vehicles in the Cortex results in their devirtualization. As the Cortex is ever-changing, it required a vehicle that could adapt to the terrain as quickly as possible.

In its debut episode, it is piloted by Yumi, though she has some difficulty in controlling it due to mechanical issues. After Jeremie runs some recalculations on the MegaPod's programming, he manages to make it more easy to maneuver, as well as giving it the capability for a speed boost should it become necessary. As Yumi is occupied with other matters during the second testing of the MegaPod, Odd is voted as the pilot by Aelita and Jeremie, due to his skill in playing video games (Odd apparently has the high score in a game called Galactic Destructor).

It has two modes to accommodate for the changing floors and walls of the Cortex. Combining the front two and back two wheels together, the MegaPod is able to travel on narrow roads. With the wheels turned 90 degrees, the MegaPod is able to travel between walls in mid-air. It has a shield like the Skidbladnir to defend against enemy attacks. It has also a cannon to destroy the attacking monsters, operated by the passenger to the direct right of the driver.

Trivia

• It's been shown that it takes days to reprogram. It's just brought up regularly like any other vehicle with no safety precautions or Hangar (like the Skid has)
• The MegaPod's full name is the Cortexian Rolling Articulating Spheroid Techto-compatible Mega-Multipod Vehicle. MegaPod is an abbreviation the Lyoko Warriors adopted since its debut, just as they refer to the Skidbladnir as "the Skid".
• Odd named the MegaPod and is the main driver.
