And with my augmentations, you ain't got a chance, Mickey! I ALWAYS win here.

–Petetronic, "Epic Mickey"

Petetronic is the second boss of Epic Mickey, and is Tomorrow City's version of Pete. He was sent to the Wasteland to protect Tomorrow City, but he was scared after the Blot's attack and went mad. He is based on Tron from the film franchise of the same name though as seen in this screenshot he takes the appearance of Sark during his boss fight.

He is voiced by Jim Cummings.

In Epic Mickey[]

In the boss battle with Petetronic, he has a pump on his back. Mickey has two options: he can either spray Paint into the pump and redeem him, or spray Thinner in and destroy him. If the player chooses to use Paint and redeem Petetronic, his armor will slowly fade away, until his head apparatus disappears, breaking his mind control. He thanks Mickey for helping him, and gives him his disk, the part for the Moonliner Rocket. The player is also rewarded with higher Paint capacity, and earns the "Redeemed Petetronic" pin. In his Good Ending, he is seen riding the Rocket Ride in Tomorrow Square with some Gremlins.

If the player uses Thinner, Petetronic will become more and more vulnerable to his own disk attack, and eventually succumb to it once the Thinner side of the pump is full, and the lines on his body start to turn green. Performing the Thinner-based strategy increases Mickey's Thinner capacity, and upon return to Mean Street, Big Bad Pete will be furious, but will still give Mickey the "Defeated Petetronic" pin. In his Bad Ending, a virtual image of Petetronic, still twisted by the Blot, appears on a TV screen, scaring away some Gremlins, having survived his battle with Mickey through virtual use. Alongside the rest of the Petes, his ending represents the ways in which we treat others.

In Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two[]

Petetronic makes a return in Epic Mickey 2, suggesting that Mickey redeemed him in the canon path of the first game. He appears in Blot Alley, where he watches over the entrance of Club 13 and opens the door which slams into Oswald, making him dizzy. After explaining where Gremlin Prescott disappeared to (and confirming that no one gets past him into the Club), two Blotworx Rockers and a Blotworx Blocker arrive on the scene and Petetronic asks the heroes to get rid of them. Then the Blue Gremlin will come and help (if you rescued him in Blot Alley), repair the machine and open the doorway. You can just go to the projector screen, or stay and help fight off the Blotworx.

If you decide to help fight off the Blotworx, they will be rewarded with Scrap Metal, and a comment from Pete saying that they're 'not as bad as Big Bad Pete makes them out to be.'

If you do not help him, he'll appear in the post credit scene with all the other Petes in the Bad Ending. In the Good Ending, he is strangely absent.

Trivia[]

  • Petetronic's design is based off of the armor from the live action movie TRON.
  • Though the initial concept art clearly showed Petetronic to be an animatronic, it is more ambiguous in the finished games, where he could just as well be just a Toon wearing a TRON suit, or even a cyborg.
  • Petetronic's name is also a pun of "Pete" (the character he's based from) and "TRON" (the live action Disney movie). It is also the same time a pun between "Pete" and "Electronic".
  • If you redeem Petetronic, Gus will comment that his power will be useful for helping Wasteland.
  • Judging by his appearance in the second game, it seems that, canonically, Petetronic was redeemed in the first game.
  • The early concept art (second one from the right in the gallery) depicts him as huge, brutish, and vaguely resembling a Pete version of Iron Golems from Wizard 101, and him not even resembling Sark (evil) or Tron (good).
