He's only planet-level due to powerscaling, which I'm still rather skeptical about. Metal Sonic is an adaptive and ever-evolving fighting machine. Yes, Mega Man isn't an idiot, but most of his opponents are robots with highly predictable attack patterns.

At some point in the battle, Mega Man WILL be scanned. It's basically inevitable, and it's not something Mega Man could ever really see coming. It's not an attack, so dodging it isn't the first thing Mega would know to do.
