By slotting in a Navi Data Chip on the Navi selection screen, you will unlock that Navi if you haven't done so. This will allow early access to any of the first 2 row of Navis. This is also the only way to unlock any Navis in the 3rd row.
In-game Function
Operation Battle is changed from it was handled from 4. The Gate can now be used for the entirety of the game instead of being locked to one mode. Whenever a chip is used, its chip icon will appear in the Data Library.
The real life chip use can be depleted, and cannot be restored until you jack out, or find a Gold Program to restore it. The Gold Programs will only appear if a Battle Chip Gate is on.
