“	A knight on horseback that gallops across the battlefield, plunging straight into enemy lines.	”
	— US In-game description.

Pyokorider (ピョコライダ) is a Pyopyo Kibapon Uberhero first introduced in Patapon 3. Like Kibadda, Pyokorider rides upon a horse, but sacrifices his shield for greater offensive power. He can exclusively ride warhorses, which further bolsters his attack power and stamina.

Appearance

Pyokorider initially sports a pale orange mask in the form of a Pyopyo Rarepon and wears a purple cape by default.

As Pyokorider evolves, his mask turns pink and his ears grow longer, resembling a Pyokora. Finally, it turns a pinkish red and his ears grow even longer, resembling a Pyokoran.

Acquisition

Pyokorider is at level 8 when unlocked, which is when Kibadda reaches level 8.

When Pyokorider and Cannassault reach level 10, and Yarida reaches level 12, Charibasa is unlocked.

Equipment

Pyokorider can be equipped with:

Helms by default.
Halberds and Horses by default.
Warhorses at level 10.
Spears at level 15.

Uberhero Mode: Illusion

"Create a doppelganger of a hero that charges into enemy lines while the original stays safely at the rear."

Activate: , then
Combo:

During Illusion, Pyokorider charges up, then releases an afterimage of himself that charges ahead, penetrating all objects and dealing full damage to targets. Although the afterimage appear to have default equipment, it will deal the same amount of damage equal to the real Pyokorider.

The afterimage has incredibly long range, allowing it to safely defeat opponents before marching ahead. The afterimage will also collect pickups such as Ka-ching, items, Treasure Chests, and Health Potions.

Class Skills

As with all Class Skills, each skill requires 100,000 experience to master. The amount of experience gained is dependent on the skill. Pyokorider's Class Skills will be inherited by Kibadda, Cannassault, and Charibasa (if Pyokora Spirit has been unlocked).

Strategy

Pyokorider can be seen as a more offensive version of Kibadda. His attack power is usually stronger than Kibadda's but he's much more frail due to being unable to carry a shield or earn any innate Defense stats, which encourages the use of Illusion.
As Pyokorider and Kibadda are both horseback riders, consider developing both, as their Set and Class skills will compliment each other.
Pyokorider's Illusion will phase through iron doors, allowing him to defeat opponents before opening the gate.
Illusion also has largest range out of all Uberheroes Hero Mode attacks. Its range is only rivaled by Ravenous' Hero Mode.
Pyokorider's set skill Peerless Rabbit and Wondabarappa's Class Skill, Heave Ho 1, can be an ideal combination to those players who can't time the beats properly.
The Set Skill, Grass Grower, can be paired with fire-based weapons like the Fire Lance or Incensar to allow Pyokorider to generate patches of fire. However, this may ignite teammates as well.
- Grass Grower is also essential to Grass Grinding.
In VS play, Pyokorider's Hero Mode allows him to attack from afar with his doppelganger, without having to take any damage. This is useful as it could kill classes that have annoying Hero Modes, such as Ravenous' tornadoes that are hard to go through because of the tornado's knockback and stagger. Equipping Murakumon and Oohoroc's Set Skill, Lightning Master, to increase attack speed by 20%, which allows for more doppelgangers.

Trivia

Pyokorider is seen holding a Fireblessed Shield in the credits, despite it not being possible for him to equip shields.
Pyokorider's appearance is very similar to that of the Komupon Ladodon from Patapon 2, a Pyokoran Kibapon Hero.
If Ton is a Pyokorider, his horse's saddle is orange, but if the Uberhero is a Pyokorider, his horse's saddle remains white.
Pyokorider's Uberhero Mode 'Illusion' always creates a doppelganger of the 2nd evolution of Pyokorider.
