Trivia

• The name Rahu comes from the Hindu legend of a serpent who swallows the sun and moon, causing solar eclipses.
  • This could explain why its "face" looks like a serpent.
• Despite its defense stat being listed as 5.0, it only takes 20% damage from an attack (an attack that would normally deal 100 damage on Ray 01 will only deal 20 damage to Rahu III).
  • This would make Rahu III's "true" defense stat be 11.0 (100-20 = 80, 80/10.0 = 8.0, 3.0+8.0 = 11.0)
• Rahu III suffers no knockback from attacks.
  • In addition, if knocked down somehow, it will immediately rebirth.
• Rahu III "runs" while performing a Sky Dash.
  • Rahu III has shorter Sky Dashes than Rahu I and Rahu II, but he has access to 2 of them.
  • Also, he rises a bit when using his Sky Dashes.
• Rahu III shares the same victory animations with Rahu I and Rahu II.
