Hatchiyack is a character from the video game Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans. He is a supercomputer created by Dr. Lychee to enact revenge against the Saiyans, as he is a Tuffle, a race that inhabited the planet that would become Planet Vegeta after the Saiyans took it over and murdered almost all previous inhabitants.

Appearance

Hatchiyack is a machine with a unique looking design. What appears to possibly be a skin like substance is pink while the armor that covers him in parts is red. He also has blue oval shaped designs on his arms, chest and head which glow brightly when he is storing up energy. In the remake of the OVA, these were changed to green instead of blue.

Personality

Being a machine, Hatchiyack is focused on his objective to eradicate the last Saiyans and everything that stands in his way. He is also ruthless and merciless when it comes to finishing his mission. In the 2010 remake, he displays more emotion and slightly more dialogue.

During the Baby Hatchiyack Saga, Hatchiyack has a sort of kinship of sorts with Baby due to their shared origin as artificial beings created by Tuffle scientists during the Saiyan-Tuffle war who are both motivated to seek revenge on the Saiyans leading to the two to fuse after Towa summons Hatchiyack to Age 789.

Biography

Background

Hatchiyack first appears as a massive supercomputer, designed by Dr. Lychee to amplify the "power of hate" in order to help the Tuffles fight back and defeat the Saiyan menace. Unfortunately for the Tuffles, Dr. Lychee is unable to complete his machine in time to stop the Saiyan advance; instead, he allows Hatchiyack to absorb the hatred and negative energy of the fallen Tuffles before jettisoning it into outer space.

Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans

Years after the Saiyan-Tuffle war and the Genocide of the Saiyans, the machine revives Dr. Lychee, Frieza, Cooler, Lord Slug, and Turles as Ghost Warriors in order to attack the remaining Saiyans that live on Earth. After absorbing the pure hatred of Dr. Lychee's ghost, who was defeated by the Dragon Team on the Dark Planet, the machine materializes itself into a powerful fighter.

Hatchiyack first appears to be too powerful for the Z Fighters to handle, but after about 15 minutes of a one-sided fight, Goku figures out Hatchiyack's weakness. Hatchiyack only fires his Revenger Cannon after charging up for 15 seconds and doing so leaves him completely defenseless. Knowing this, Goku and the others begin powering up their strongest blasts and fire at the count of 15. And after a brief struggle, this proves to be more than enough to fully destroy Hatchiyack.

In Dragon Ball Z Side Story: True Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans - Space Saga, Hatchiyack survives the Z Fighters' attack and continues the battle. The final battle depends on the player's earlier choice: if Goku went to the first planet then the final battle is against Super Hatchiyack, who defeats the Z Fighters once more until he is taken down by an Instant Spirit Bomb. If Goku went to the second planet, the final battle is against Giant Hatchiyack, who is defeated when Goku flies inside him and destroys his core.

Super Dragon Ball Heroes

Dark Demon Realm Saga

In the trailer for "God Mission 6," Hatchiyack is summoned to Age 789 by Towa before the Neo Machine Mutant Tuffle Baby can be defeated by Super Saiyan 4 Goku. Hatchiyack calls Baby to him, and the two fuse into "Baby Hatchiyack," who then engages in battle against the Dragon Team, Time Patrol, and Dragon Ball Heroes.

Prison Planet Saga

Hatchiyack is brought to the Prison Planet by Fu and given a Special Dragon Ball. He invades the Chaos Area of the Prison Planet and attacks the Frieza Force troops using Ghost Warriors.

  • Game Version: When King Cold attempts to betray Cooler and Future Trunks, Hatchiyack ambushes and kills him. He then attacks Cooler and Future Trunks, overwhelming the latter. Before Hatchiyack can finish him, Majin Ozotto intervenes. Hatchiyack powers up to his "Super Grudge Amplification" form but is ultimately defeated by the trio, leading to the dispersal of the Ghost Warriors and the capture of his Special Dragon Ball.
  • Manga Version: Majin Ozotto discovers the machine generating the Ghost Warriors and plans to destroy it, but Hatchiyack appears, carrying a Special Dragon Ball. Although Hatchiyack initially has the upper hand, Ozotto uses deception to steal the Dragon Ball and escape.

After Oolong wishes for everyone to return to their original locations, Hatchiyack is sent away.

Supreme Kai of Time Saga

In the anime, a version of Hatchiyack is released from the Scrolls of Eternity by Dark King Demigra as part of his "game." Empowered by Demigra, Hatchiyack appears in his Giant Form and confronts Jiren alongside the Transcended Golden Great Ape Baby.

Demon Invader Saga

In one particular Space-Time, Hatchiyack is absorbed by Majin Ozotto.

Trivia

  • Hatchiyack's name is likely derived from "Hyakuhachi", which is Japanese for "One-hundred and eight", a number of great significance in Buddhism. "Eight hundred" is read as "Happyaku", and has no such notability. His name is also similar to the name of a cultivar of persimmon called the "hachiya", popular in Japan; it seems fitting due to the Tuffles' own name.
  • Hatchiyack is very similar to Dr. Gero's Super Computer, for perpetuating its creator hatred and continuing the fight even after its doctor's death. Like Hatchiyack, Future Dr. Gero's Super Computer takes the form of a mechanical fighter after its creator's death in Dragon Ball Z: Supersonic Warriors 2.
  • In his fighter form, Hatchiyack's physical appearance resembles Perfect Cell, only pink and red with green sections instead of dark on his body.
  • Hatchiyack is similar to Baby as both are machine created by Tuffles (Dr. Lychee & King Tuffle respectively) and seek revenge on the surviving Saiyans for their race's role in the Genocide of the Tuffle race.
    • Fittingly, Hatchiyack becomes Baby's host resulting in the Neo Machine Mutant becoming Baby Hatchiyack in the Dragon Ball Heroes series. Hatchiyack is also an ideal host for Baby as both were created to take revenge upon the Saiyans and would allow both of them to fulfill that goal. Hatchiyack also has the ability to take on Giant Form which would allow him to host Baby's Adult form.
  • Hatchiyack being potentially stronger than Broly might imply that Dr. Lychee knew enough about the Legendary Super Saiyan to deduce its overall combat prowess and made sure his revenge weapon against the Saiyans was capable of fighting one should the opportunity occur.
