Volt Kurageil (ボルト・クラゲール, Boruto Kuragēru) is a giant aquatic boss from Mega Man X3.

Its only purpose is to stop intruders from infiltrating Dr. Doppler's Laboratory.

Etymology

• "Kurageil" derived from kurage, the Japanese word for jellyfish, the animal that Volt Kurageil is modeled after. Despite having "Volt" in its name, Volt Kurageil does not use any electric attacks, though it is weak to Triad Thunder.

Trivia

• Volt Kurageil's weakness to Triad Thunder may be explained by the fact that jellyfish are made almost entirely of water.
• Leganchor the Gelroid from Mega Man ZX bears a resemblance to Volt Kurageil.
