Cross System

The Cross Change System (クロスシステム) is a transformation system in Mega Man Battle Network 6. It can be paired up with Beast Out for even more tricks.

How to Use

Press Up in the Custom Screen, there will a selection of Cross forms to go into. The transformation will stay until it is hit by its weakness or until it is overwritten by another Cross. If a Cross is hit by its weakness, MegaMan takes x2 damage and the form is lost for the rest of the battle.

Each Cross can only be used once per battle. These forms can't be accessed if MegaMan is in Very Tired emotion.

Cross Beast

AKA Cross Cybeast. In any order, MegaMan can go from Beast Form into a Cross, or a Cross into Beast Form. Along with the Beast Form’s abilities, he shares the same abilities as the normal Cross except they no longer have their B Button PowerAttacks. Instead, MegaMan can perform A Button PowerAttack with None chips to perform a Beast Special Move.

When MegaMan loses his Beast Form due to the turn limit, the Cross is lost as well. But if the Cross is lost due to weakness, MegaMan will become his formless Beast Form.

Cross Abilities

Although normal MegaMan’s Charge Shot PowerAttack is calculated even with 6 Attack Buster stat and above, the Crosses’ B Button PowerAttack calculations maxes out at 5 Attack Buster stat.

Trivia

• Even though the players are guided to obtain each Cross in the story, getting all Crosses is not required to complete the story mode.
• Elec and Tengu Cross are in the second slot of the Cross Menu, but if the player is getting each Cross as they are unlocked, they are the third Crosses that are obtained.
• All Gregar Cross Beast Special Moves can deal 200 damage or more in a single hit with the exception of Elec Beast.
• The Rockman EXE 6 TGS 2005 trailer showed some early versions of the Cross Change System:
  • Heat Cross’s FireArm was to go further than 3 panels.
  • Aqua Cross was to receive BubbleWrap upon transforming(?).
• In the Japanese game, there is data for for an item called "CrossBatch" and an E-Mail called "CrossChange". The CrossChange E-Mail suggests that Crosses were once needed to be equipped via Navi Customizer as a "Cross Program" and CrossBatch was required to swap during battle. In the English game, these texts were removed but the CrossChange E-Mail name still exists.
