DiveMan.EXE is a WWW NetNavi that appears in Mega Man Battle Network 6 and operated by Captain Blackbeard.
Game History
Mega Man Battle Network 6
Blackbeard uses DiveMan to open the gates on the animals pens at the aquarium. After defeating DiveMan, MegaMan started the feeding time chime, causing the animals to return to their enclosures, and allowing for the staff to better restore order.
Afterwards, DiveMan is seen and fought when he cooperates with BlastMan in kidnapping Roll, GutsMan, and Glyde. They transport them to the Undernet and challenge MegaMan to get his friends back. Despite having a two vs. one advantage, they are both deleted.
Because of both his deletion as well as his operator, Captain Blackbeard's arrest alongside Mayor Cain, he is the only one of the anti Baryl faction of WWW to not rematch MegaMan.EXE at the Expo nearing the end of the game.
Locations
DiveMan's EX form can be found in Seaside Area 1. After defeating it, his SP form can be randomly encountered in the same place. His RV form in Graveyard 1 possesses 1900 HP.
Attacks
DiveMan's emblem
DiveMan possesses the following attacks and abilities:

- Giga Wave: DiveMan generates a massive tidal wave which hits your two front columns and his front one.
Anime History
Rockman.EXE Beast
He appears with Captain Kurohige in Beyondard. Together with Chirol and CircusMan, they control a castle that also serves as a prison for those opposing the Greiga army, since both Kurohige and Chirol are under the orders of Zoanoroid DarkMan of Greiga.
When Zoan DarkMan is beaten, DiveMan allows Chirol and Kurohige to board him and leave. They are then hired by Beyondard's Dr. Wily in order to capture Trill and bring him to Wily. DiveMan takes profit of a clash between the two Cybeasts to kidnap Trill and take him away.
When things look awry, Kurohige and Chirol make a run for it with an aerial machine, but, because of a bomb Dark Scythe placed earlier, they veer off-course and crash-land on Earth, Onibi Island, to be exacts.
Rockman.EXE Beast+
Captain Kurohige and Chirol, along with DiveMan and CircusMan, are approached by BubbleMan and try to build different versions of Copyroids, which end failing due to the efforts of both Netto and Enzan.
They then try to get help from the original Dr. Wily, but when he refuses, they steal what they think to be Synchro Chips, but are in truth Reverse Synchro Chips. They are sent to the CyberWorld and have trouble with viruses until Rockman, ShadowMan and Wily help them escape. Tired from their presence, Wily sends them to work at an aquarium. They are not seen again.
