These are the Version Differences between the two versions of Mega Man Battle Network 4, Red Sun and Blue Moon.

Story Differences

• If a Navi was traded over via Waiting Room, instead of getting the Double Soul scene in the first scenario encounter, it will play the scene of encountering the Navi scenario two or more times in its native version.

• After the Hawk/Eagle Tournament, LaserMan will appear and the Navi who come to assist MegaMan will differ. These characters are the same in each Continue regardless if you get their scenario in that playthrough or not.
  • Red Sun: GutsMan appears and GutsManDS is the opponent.
  • Blue Moon: AquaMan appears and AquaManDS is the opponent.

• During the ending cutscene, the character who shows up in the areas are different.
  • Red Sun: Mr. Match appears in Elec Town. Raoul appears in Netopia. Dark skin lady and brown hat old man appear in YumLand. Dark skin boy and big-chin bald man appear in NetFrica. Raika appears in Sharo.
  • Blue Moon: Sal appears in Elec Town. Sunglasses man appears in Netopia. Green hat old man and blues dress old lady appear in YumLand. Mr. Famous and locs hairstyle man appear in NetFrica. Chillski appears in Sharo.

Gameplay Differences

Fightable Bosses & Tournaments

The Tournament names are different between versions. Some Navis and Tournament scenarios you get are also dependent on the version. These version-exclusive bosses are the only way to obtain their chips. Beating the version Navi in the story will add them to the Waiting Room. It is impossible to get FireMan and NumberMan in the first continue, except in the opposite version via Waiting Room.

Due to the Waiting Room feature, these opposite version Navis aren't as locked away like other games. You will be able to trade Navis over from the opposite version, complete their scenarios, and battle them. This is also the only way to max out the Records of opposite version SP Navi Chips.
