Batch-89 was a collection of animals genetically engineered by the High Evolutionary in his attempts to create a perfect race. However, he deemed them too imperfect to be part of his Counter-Earth and, once they became no more useful to him, ordered to incinerate them. After learning of this, Rocket the Raccoon decided to escape with his friends, but they were shot down by the High Evolutionary. The only survivor, Rocket managed to flee.

Trivia[]
- While it may not be included in the F-Zero timeline, as Ikran never saw Guardians Vol. 3 yet, it would be implied that Rocket still escaped from the High Evolutionary's abuse, and his friends perished before he joined the Guardians. It can also be noted that events from Guardians Vol. 3 took place after Endgame, then Peter found out about Gamora joining the Ravagers before they encountered the black hole.
