History:
(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It" - BTS) - The young mutant known as Squid-Boy moved to Genosha at an unrevealed point in time. The African island nation had become a mutant paradise, allowing all mutants like Squid-Boy to live in absolute freedom.
(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It") - The streets of Hammer Bay were filled with festivities and laughter when the United Nations had formally admitted Genosha. To celebrate the momentous event, Genosha hosted the prestigious Hellfire Gala to celebrate mutant culture an event which Squid-Boy attended. Squid-Boy was seen arriving through a water column just as Nightcrawler and Boom-Boom came down the stairs, while exiting the water column he was instantly dried. Squid-Boy. However, during the gala Genosha was targeted by the techno-organic Sentinel hybrid Bastion who send a monstrous Mastermold to destroy and kill all mutants. As chaos ensued, Mastermold and its Sentinels rendered the island nation to rubble, murdering many mutants.
(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Bright Eyes") - Like many other mutants, Squid-Boy was killed when Mastermold's attack caused the buildings to collapse, trapping his lifeless body beneath the rubble.
(X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon - "Remember It") - While the onslaught went on, Squid-Boy's body was recovered along those of Callisto, Dazzler, Moira MacTaggert and Sebastian Shaw. In the end it was X-Man Gambit who sacrificed himself to successfully destroy Bastion's Mastermold.

The Sentinel used in the attack on Genosha is generally referred to as either the Tri-Sentinel or a Wild Sentinel, however, the end credits of "Remember It" used Mastermold for it's name.
When, in 2015's Secret Wars, the Multiverse was destroyed following the incursions of planets it appeared as if Reality-92131 was drafted onto Battleworld as the Westchester domain. However, this has since been debunked. As such the reality seen in the two volumes of X-Men '92 (2015 and 2016-2017) now have their own reality-designation of Earth-15730. The X-Men '92: House of XCII (2022) series was inspired by both the animated series and Hickman's House of X run but is its own separate reality. The limited series X-Men '97 (2024), however, is Reality-92131 and bridges the gap between the original X-Men: The Animated Series cartoon and the new X-Men '97: The Animated Series cartoon.
