3 reasons for "devolution":

1. Shao Kahn put a curse on him for turning against him in the events of MK3/UMK3/MKT

2. He's the last of his race (this is according to his MK3 ending, which means either Chameleon isn't a Saurian, or this has been retconned.)

3. He is not mentally stable enough to hold a human form

The reason he looks more human than now than he did in MKDA is because he reverted back to a human after Onaga's spirit left his body.

So that mean my theory was close... ISH?

In a sence. The only problem with yours is that Reptile is not "stuck". He's still devolving, and if MKA were to take place a year later, he would look more like he did in MKDA than he did in MK4.

If his ending is canon and he finds chameleon he will probably regain his sanity and start evolving to human again.

"As the shockwave caused by Blaze's death rattled the surrounding crater, the pyramid on which Reptile stood began to crumble.A fissure opened to reveal a sarcophagus of familiar design.
Reptile unlocked the curious artifact to find a female Zaterran.
As she awoke, Reptile felt himself slowly reverting back to his humanoid form.
The glory of Zaterra will return once more!"




It doesnt seem like it says he kills Blaze,but that someone does kill him and the shockwave causes the Pyramid to collapse.And dont forget,Reptile recently has had a true ending,so i wouldnt be suprised if he has a true ending again.

I believe some of MK's younger and newer fans should brush up on MK History a bit. MKDA is a good place to start for this discussion. And honestly, the puberty jokes are not funny; the geico ones are ok, but not so good anymore, since cavemen have become their new ad gimmick. But, it was his MK4 look that was the worst. He had lizard eyes, and the rest looked like a guy with green skin, covered in liver-spots.


So, what's your answer, slick?


It was explained in Deadly Alliance that the longer Reptile is seperated from his race/people, the more he will continue to revert to a primal state. And another reason (that I consider a possibility) is that Reptile's body reverted to a primal state thanks to Onaga, in order to prepare Reptiles body for Onaga to possess it for himself. Afterall, Onaga even manipulated Shujinko & others to set the events into action that allowed for his return, from beyond the grave.

And slick doesn't suit me, I'd prefer SOB or Jackass.

Im surprised how many people dont know, it was explained in MK Deadly Alliance. Basically he reverts back to a more primal state the longer he is away from the matriarch of his race.

No, now stop trying to hide your grades, man up, and go get beat by your parents or whatever. And stop the spam.

its a combination of his separation from the matriarch of his race for so long and the fact that he is going insane due to his tireless quest to resurect his race, and his supposed failure to protect shao kahn in the events before MK:DA




..... doh!


Anyone and Everyone should know this.
