- Gimlet is a Maximal Jointron from the Beast Era of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Gimlet (ギムレット Gimretto) is the youngest of the Jointron brothers and the dancing fool of the group. He loves to jump and party-about to the music of his older brother, DJ. Gimlet is a Maximal who never gets down even in the worst situation. Instead he just likes to party and have a good time and see what happens next. During peacetime he dedicates himself to competitive sports, and during wartime treats that like a sport and keeps score of the Preds he's downed. Just like his other brothers, he mixes bad Spanish in with his sentences, oftentimes making it hard to tell what he’s getting at. Instead, he lets his rhythm speak for him.
Gimlet can join with his fellow Jointrons to form Tripledacus.
