The Robo-Dexo 2000 (also known as the Giant Dexo-Robo or Dex-Bot) is Dexter's giant fighting robot and one of his most used and famous inventions.

Appearance

Robo-Dexo in seasons 3 and 4 of Dexter's Laboratory.

The Robo-Dexo 2000 resembles its creator in design.

It has a white and black color scheme, blue visor-like "glasses" where the cockpit is located, white and black boot-like feet made to resemble Dexter's own boots and large purple hands that resemble Dexter's gloves.

Its main weapons are its rocket-launching hands and its "PEZ" missiles stored in its neck. It can also fire various lasers from its eyes, hands and chest. Despite being a "giant robot", however, the Robo-Dexo is often dwarfed in size by its opponents, similar to Dexter's short stature.

In seasons 3 and 4 of Dexter's Lab, the Robo-Dexo remained mostly unchanged, however its "glasses" were now black instead of blue and its "gloves" were a lighter shade of purple.

Personality

A crumbling Robo-Dexo struggles to build its replacement for Dexter.

In seasons 1 and 2 of Dexter's Lab, the Robo-Dexo 2000 appears to be a mindless mech with no AI who only moves in accordance with its pilot.

However, in the season 3 episode "RoboDexo 3000", the Robo-Dexo is actually shown to possess a very simplistic AI (although it cannot speak) and can actually perform basic tasks without the need of a pilot, such as drawing the Energy Thief into position while Dexter on the ground below set up a field of solar panels to focus on and destroy the alien.

The Robo-Dexo is also shown be incredibly loyal to Dexter despite his abuse and attempts to replace it as after it was restored by FIX-67, it willfully opened up its foot entrance for Dexter after he apologized to it for his mistreatment. After they succeeded in destroying the Energy Thief, Dexter declared the Robo-Dexo to be the greatest robot ever.

Trivia

• The Robo-Dexo 2000 is based heavily on mecha from various Japanese science-fiction shows, including the full-body flight suit Dexter wears while piloting it.
• There is no standard to the Robo-Dexo's armaments, often employing whatever weapons or equipment are necessary for the task at hand. Conversely, it is typically never shown to use the same weapon or equipment twice (the main exception being its rocket-launching hands).
• Its PEZ missiles are a reference to the famous PEZ candies.
