So, anyone else wondering what Puzzle's gimmick is going to be? It'd be weird for a character with this design to be a hand-to-hand combatant, especially considering his alternate form, but he doesn't seem to have a weapon of his own.

Maybe Paradox Puzzle Gamer also can create giant puzzle to trap his opponents just like Hatena Bugster's (puzzle-themed Bugster) ability from Movie War. Paradox Fighting Gamer more likely based from boxing or fighting video games. Edit: full images: Source Last edited by Blade Fang; 12-27-2016 at 08:37 PM.. |

I really like this name.
I also really like this Rider's suit. Puzzle Gamer may have been my favorite suit in the show so far...if only Para-DX didn't have the alternate Gamer's face on the back of the other's head. That's just so terrible and it looks so terrible. Sigh. Like, ok, that's probably how the toy works. I wish they'd figured out a way to do one of those things where one head is stored in the chest and they flip during mode changing or something. Cause this is just so disappointing. |

So, I was trying to come up with more reasons as to why they'd spell the name with a "DX" when those letters aren't even remotely pronounced "DOX".
Of course there's the common Japanese usage of DX for video games and toys (in place of deluxe), but someone else suggested that in certain practices, DX is a shorthand medical term for either "disease" or "diagnosis", which got me thinking: what does Para- mean in the same context? Para- as a medical prefix can mean things like "abnormal", "the involvement of two parts or a pair", or "nearby/adjacent to" as well. Which means Para-DX's name spelling can be considered a multifaceted pun; -"Nearby-Disease" -"Abnormal-Diagnosis" -"Double-Deluxe" and, of course -"Paradox" |

Must be a reference to Nintendo DS. and Graphite already has a buckle like a Game Boy Advance. because of course Nintendo must be the "evil" counterpart to Bandai Namco.
YES, I'm being facetious. :P |

More pic: Source It seems Para-DX's Rider Gauges is on his segmented chest. Last edited by Blade Fang; 12-30-2016 at 06:10 PM.. |

That looks relatively not terrible for an Ex-Aid suit.

I think the odd naming choice actually works in this situation, it hammers in the idea of Parad being Emu's rival or opposite.
