Ultimate Armor X in its black color design fromX6 appears alongsideAwakened Zero on Stage 9-4 of X Challenge in Hard Mode only. X will primarily dash and jump around and can wall jump, periodically stopping to fire charge shots. Despite the animation, the plasma shots do not leave a lingering field behind.

After losing half of his energy, X will start changing between theFourth Armor,Falcon Armor, andShadow Armor. His movements remain the same, but his attacks change depending of the armor. With the Fourth Armor, he continues using charge shots, and sometimes uses a chargedGround Fire andSpike Ball. With the Falcon Armor, X will use the Spear Charge Shot and sometimes its Free Move function. With the Shadow Armor, X will try to get close to use Engetsurin and sometimes will stick to the ceiling and fire triple Shuriken Shots downwards.

If Awakened Zero is defeated first, X will return to the Ultimate Armor, and he will useYammar Option to improve his offense and defense. Besides his previous moves, Ultimate Armor X will also use the charged versions ofRay Arrow andGuard Shell.
