A '''Spydor''' is a pest that will teleport into a person's house at random and attack their [[Chibi-Robo]], often in packs of three to five, with only a few drops of [[oil]] to warn of their presence in an area. When first encountered in [[Chibi-Robo!]], however, there were eight Spydorz in the group, which surrounded [[Chibi-Robo]] in an attack called the Spydor Roulette. While Spydorz are a menace, they are easily taken out by a shot from a [[Chibi-Blaster]]; these shots will conveniently home in on the nearest Spydor. Destroying a Spydor will leave behind a bit of [[Scrap]], which can then be recycled in order to create [[Utilibot]]s. Even with their queen destroyed, the Spydorz continue to appear in the Sanderson household. | A '''Spydor''' is a pest that will teleport into a person's house at random and attack their [[Chibi-Robo]], often in packs of three to five, with only a few drops of [[oil]] to warn of their presence in an area.

The Spydorz were in fact created by [[Mr. Sanderson]], while he was an employee of Macroware Robotics, Inc. Though he had designed them to be friends with Chibi-Robos, the company reprogrammed them to attack. Mr. Sanderson quit as a result, taking the more dangerous Spydorz with him. When Mr. Sanderson heard from the news that Spydorz were attacking Chibi-Robos around the world, he became quite upset. | The Spydorz were in fact created by [[Mr. Sanderson]], while he was an employee of Macroware Robotics, Inc.
