X is the so-called Tetris King in Puyo Puyo Tetris, as well as being the game's final boss. He is an odd looking fellow with a white X in his hair and vibrant, colorful clothing reminiscent of clowns. His attack phrases relate to game mechanics, such as "Speed up" and "Hard Drop" (and even Hyper Hard Drop). He is the king of the Tetrimino Planet, though he is set to be replaced by T.
Background information
Not much is known about X's past, other than that he is the King of Tetris from the Tetrimino Planet. When the Tetris Portal malfunctioned, he disappeared from the Tetrimino Planet in order to stop the portal from causing too much chaos, but ultimately failed in doing so. He is also set to be replaced by T as the king of the Tetrimino Planet, though this had not taken place prior to the events of Puyo Puyo Tetris.
Etymology
X may come from the "X" in the logo of the game itself, which features a giant "X". Furthermore, this X is white, not unlike the one in the character's hair, and may additionally represent a "cross", as in the crossover between the two different series. X also looks like the Greek letter χ (Chi), which is often pronounced similarly to "key", perhaps to signify his importance. Finally, X may refer to the X pentomino.
Trivia
- In the in-game files, he is referred to as "MST". This may be an abbreviation of "Master", and is similar to how Ecolo was called "BOSS" in Puyo Puyo 7.
- This may also be in reference to Tetris Grand Master, as well as reference to him being the so-called King of Tetris.
