Ray 01 is a Shining Fighter robo and a member of the Ray Series It is featured in Custom Robo (GameCube) where it is the mascot and Custom Robo Arena where it can be purchased in the Underground. In Custom Robo GC, Ray 01 is the first robo given to the player in-game. It is first used during the Lab burglary, after which the player must use it to fight off the thugs trying to gain possession of it. Afterwards Linda will officially give the player the robo.
Use the Ray 01 at mid-range with a mid-range gun. Once the opponent goes down, fire a bomb or run him over with your fast charge attack. Or try using a long-range such as the Sniper Gun or Dragon Gun, and use your charge attack. Also, the speed handicap may be destroyed if using Formula Legs(this will give speed, but no dodge bonus).
The novice habit of spamming Ray 01's powerful charge, though often frowned upon, can be a means of catching the enemy off-guard.
Spread your Satellites out and fire the Gemini to block off routes while the enemy is near walls or obstacles. Let loose with the Needle Gun and run him over with a charge or two.
Launch the bomb, then the pod, immediately fire the gun and complete by a dash attack. This combo can do more than 200 damage. Use the legs to escape or to approach your oppenent from the air and fire the gun.
This is a good set for advanced players; use the pods and bombs to force your opponent to move into the open, then hit him with the Dragon Gun and Ray 01's charge--good vs. Rahu III.
This A good set if you want to deal a lot of damage quickly. From a Medium rage shoot your opponent until he is knocked downed with the Dragon gun then quickly run up to him and do your collision. Immediately after your collision you opponent should be in the air. This is when you shoot with your Dragon gun once more or use a bomb.If your opponent does not allow you to get near then you should attack at a long rang with the Dragon gun and then use a bomb while they are downed.
I use the Drill Gun to bring the enemy closer (in Custom Robo Arena, the drill gun brings the enemy closer) and use either the Submarine Bomb K or Titan Pod, as they are slow and wont reach at a long distance. if the enemy has a powerful gun, i use Formula Legs to strafe the enemy
At close ranges, the Needle Gun can down most robos, and gives you time to score in a charge or two. Standard K sends the opponent down on-contact, giving you the opportunity to get some distance or score a few hits, just be sure to run away when they get up. Seekers can get a hiding opponent some motivation to move out of cover, despite their lack of speed. The Formula and the charge can make a great combination, just don't overdo it.
Down your opponent and fire the bomb AND the pod then fire the gun 3 to 4 times then use the Charge to finish the Combo (does over 160+ damage and i used this combo to pass Winchell's test and it was a piece of cake)
-At the beginning of Custom Robo GC Linda refers to Ray01 as a "Top secret robo". Despite this it still shares similar stats to the other Shining fighters within the game Glory and Splendor. This may indicate it was unfinished.
