Where did they get the name Bass in Megaman Battle Network?
Bass is not just in Battle Network, just as Megaman is not just
in Battle Network; he is merely that series' incarnation of the
franchised character. The name Bass is the English version of the
name, and is meant to correspond with the robowolf Treble (get
it!?). Treble is Bass's version of Megaman's robodog Rush. In
Battle Network, Treble is effectively converted into Gospel, as the
features are similar and the two team up at the end of MMBN 3 to
create the super powerful BassGS, or Bass Gospel Soul.
