Operation Battle (MMBN4)

From The Rockman EXE Zone Wiki

Operation Battle (オペレーションバトル) is a mode is accessed through the title screen by having the BattleChip Gate attached to the GBA. An in-game save is required to play.

Modes

In this mode, the player sends real life BattleChip to their Navis while having limited control over them. The mode also goes through all version-exclusive Navis. The player is rewarded with a star on the Operation Battle screen once finished.


The following modes are available for Operation Battle.

  • Instruct:

The controls are different than normal gameplay as well:

Button Usage
Left/Right Tells the Navi which column they should be on, when they can.
Up The option to get Navi to follow the enemy in the same row as much as possible, or avoid the same row as much as possible.
Down The option for the Navi to change the tactic from either using the buster, its special weapon, or not attacking.
Holding L The Navi stands still and slotting in chips lets you perform a Program Advance.
Start Pause

The gauge increases over time and the more hits you land. It decreases if you are hit or send BattleChips. Chips you are able to send are dependent on the gauges:

Color BattleChip
Yellow Standard Chip
Blue Mega Chip
Red Giga Chip
