I think assuming there's True versions of the other riders is jumping the gun a little though, we don't really have any reason to think that. Would make True Brave seem less random though, admittedly.

Him being the original Taddle Quest user...would actually make a lot of sense. After all, so far, the only Proto Gashats that have been released are Proto-Mighty Action X and Proto-BangBang Shooting, both formerly used by Dan and Taiga, and Proto-Gekitotsu Robots and Proto-GiriGiri Chanbara, both used by those two guys from Heisei Generations. In fact, the only Proto Gashat not yet released is Proto-Drago Knight Hunter Z, which was used by both Graphite and the other guy from Heisei Generations - and that clearly will be eventually.
The point is, Proto-Taddle Quest is the odd one out - it's the only Proto Gashat that has been released, but never used on-screen. Why? Maybe because this dude was planned all along.

However, I personally think the Bugster theory is much more likely. He just feels too...random. Also, it's rather obvious, I feel, that the first four Bugsters were the bosses from their games (Graphite as well, most likely. It pisses me off that they used Collabos Bugsters for the Level 3 Gashats, and, let's face it we're never even seeing a Collabos Bugster for Shakariki Sports. I can't believe JuJu Burger gets one and Robots, Beat, Chanbara, Combat and Sports don't.). I mean, Salty just bluntly is, and it would make a lot of sense, particularly regarding how the fights against Revolve and Motors went.
The Fantasy Gamer looks a fair bit like Alhambra, and gives Hiiro the ability to cast spells like Alhambra. IE, I think Alhambra is turned into the Fantasy Gamer, like how Hinata's Immature Bugster became the Hunter Gamer. Following that logic, Salty and Revolve are likely the Maximum Gamer and Simulation Gamer as well (Simulation, at least, as a lot of guns on him...). Anyway, the point is, Taddle Fantasy makes Hiiro the villain. It would make a lot of sense for a new Bugster representing Taddle Quest/Taddle Fantasy's hero to appear to defeat him.

And yeah, I agree with that last point too. True Brave does not a trend make.
After all, maybe they're just trying something new. After all, every Support Gamer barring GiriGiri Chanbara has been reused at this point: Gekitotsu Robots as Pac Adventure, DoReMiFa Beat as Famista, Jet Combat as Xevious, Drago Knight Hunter Z as Night of Safari, and I'd bet good money that BangBang Tank will be a reworked BangBang Simulation (another thing. In-Universe, if Tank, Simulation, and Shooting are all part of the same series, why the hell isn't Jet Combat?!). Reused with new paintjobs and new parts, but reused all the same.
In fact, the undersuit for True Brave looks a lot like Ghost Gamer Level 2's, just with a bronze tassel and the longcoat from Wizard Gamer Level 2.
