"Because I wanted you to realize... that you weren't anyone's successor. I wanted you to leap towards your own dreams. To become the first of a new generation..."

―Soreo's final words^[src]

Due to Finis altering the timeline, this version of the Humagear Soreo Hiden (飛電 其雄, Hiden Soreo) had survived in 2019 as the Daybreak Town Accident never occurred. In a world ruled by Humagears, he uses the Cycloneriser to transform into Kamen Rider Ichi-Gata (仮面ライダー1型, Kamen Raidā Ichigata, lit. "Masked Rider Type-1").

History

Kamen Rider: Reiwa The First Generation

Due to the changes to Zero-One’s timeline caused by Time Jacker Finis, Soreo meets an older Aruto and continues to plan the destruction of the Ark by uploading a program that'll cause it to self-destruct. However, Will's interference cause Soreo to fully succumb to the Ark's hacking and he is forced to fight his son, Aruto.

In the present-day, Soreo gives Aruto a Forceriser to become Kamen Rider ZeroZero-One after he loses the ability to transform normally. He also denies Aruto in a vote with the other Humagears as the tiebreaker of becoming President to lead Hiden Intelligence. Aruto is ultimately forced to fight Soreo, but the latter is defeated. It is revealed that Soreo wasn't really hacked by the Ark as he wanted Aruto to leap toward his own dream, reassuring him that he isn't anyone's successor. Aruto is appointed President of Hiden Intelligence as Soreo's body deactivates, but not before giving Aruto his Rocking Hopper Zetsumerise Key. After Another 1 is destroyed, the deactivated Humagear body of Soreo dissolves as the timeline goes back to normal.

Powers and Abilities

Ichi-Gata restoring a Humagear

• Humagear Restoration: Soreo can restore a Humagear to their original programming if they have been corrupted by the Ark.
• Engineering: In addition to being the primary technician for the Ark after its construction, Soreo created several weapons, including the Cycloneriser and Rocking Hopper Zetsumerisekey, as well as prototypes of the Zetsumeriser, MetsubouJinrai Forceriser, and other Progrisekeys.

Weaknesses

• Ark: Because the Cycloneriser connects Soreo to the Ark, he is susceptible to its control.

Notes

• Kamen Rider Ichi-Gata's color scheme is based on that of Kamen Rider 1's Original 1 (旧1号, Kyu Ichigo) form and the reboot Kamen Rider 1 from Kamen Rider The First.
  • Soreo's transformation pose is similar to Takeshi Hongo's transformation pose.
  • Ichi-Gata's transformation belt, the Cycloneriser, is named after Kamen Rider 1's bike, the Cyclone.
  • Ichi-Gata's Cycled Muffler closely resembles Kamen Rider 1's red scarf.
    • This is emphasized whenever Ichi-Gata uses his finishers, as the excess energy released by the Cycloneriser produces an effect similar to Kamen Rider 1's trademark scarf.

• Kamen Rider Official states that Kamen Rider Ichi-Gata was developed as the prototype for the Kamen Rider that would protect humanity and Humagears.
  • The Kamen Rider in question is most likely Kamen Rider Zero-One
  • This confirms that Kamen Rider ZeroZero-One is not the prototype of Zero-One due to the use of the MetsubouJinrai Forceriser, specifically intended for MetsubouJinrai.net members.
• Ichi-Gata's Rocking The End attack is the second finisher to incorporate the phrase "The End" as the part of the finisher name, with the first being Kamen Rider Kikai's Fullmetal The End.
• Soreo is similar to Shinobu Katsuragi from Kamen Rider Build. Both of them are the fathers of the protagonists (in Soreo's case, a surrogate parent), created the Rider system that their sons use become Kamen Riders, and temporarily fight their sons using a prototype of the Rider system they created as part of a facade to trick a villain.
• Soreo's last words to Aruto ("Leap towards your dream") would later become the Humagear's activation sound in the series.
