===Navi Change===
While you're on the Net, there are mugshots of 5 Navis on the top right of the screen. Those are the Navis of that version you can swap into.

During battle, Navi Data Chips are allowed to be slot in and perform NaviChange. In order to changeNavis, the correct chip must be slot in. The Navi will only stay in battle for one turn. Only one of each Navi Chip can be slot in per battle. The strength of the Navi is set and will become stronger as the story progress.

There are a few restrictions to this mode:
*You cannot use this function in Liberation Missions.
*You cannot slot in a Navi Data Chip of the boss you are fighting. (e.g. MagnetMan Data Chip in a fight against MagnetMan boss)
*During the scenarios where you play as other Navi, this function is totally disabled.

Like mod cards, this feature will unlock a special mode in Communications: TeamBattle. This mode lets you use NaviChange in multi-player.

===Operation Battle===
This mode is accessed through the title screen. The game uses EXE4.5 Operation Battle system. The Navi slot in must be MegaMan, or a Team Navi of that version. Nothing will happen if you slot in Colonel in Team ProtoMan.

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