Megaman Battle Network 5 and Boktai 2 Crossover Battle FAQ By Nightmare1oo(GFAQS)/CaptainCrunch(NOA) ------------ 1.-Introduction ------------ This FAQ was made because I thought many people would like to know what a Crossover Battle is, and to cut down on Crossover Battle topics on the boards.

First I will explain the crossover battle's special controls. BUTTON IN BATTLE INTERVAL SCREEN A button:not used not used B button:use weapon not used L button:use magic select magic R button:not used select weapon SELECT:not used toggle blocking on/off START:not used not used D-PAD:move not used Now on to getting ready to go. First put Boktai 2 in your game system(not DS) then, attach your wireless adapter. Power on, then go to the Link menu and select CROSSOVER BATTLE. Now it will be at another menu and you want to select CROSSOVER BATTLE here and wait while the other person does what they still need to. It will start at this point, after a confimation of the opponent. Finally, on to the part where I explain crossover battles. 1st, you will be at the "interval" screen. At this screen you will select your 1 magic for this turn. Each magic can be use once per crossover battle. You will also select your 1 weapon for the turn. You can use each weapon once, except for the bare hands, which can be used as much as you want. Oh yeah, your selection of weapons and magic will be random each time, out of a special pool of crossover battle weapons and magic. SPECIAL MAGIC EFFECT- the plant magic will heal you instead of plants. Your MP will be restored to full at each interval phase. In the battle phase, you will fight Shademan. I recommend doing the after-game quest first so you will have some experience fighting him. His attacks include dashing at you, sending 3 bats at you, and summoning squares in the middle of the arena that will shoot beams at you. If Megaman sends a red disturb icon, Shademan will send many bats at you. If a green, then Shademan will be healed. If yellow, then you will get a status effect. If blue, then a shade crow will be spawned. If you hit shademan in the back, then you will send a red disturb icon(devastating attack). Hit shademan with an enchanted sword attack, and you will send a blue disturb icon(mettaur spawn). Hit Shademan with an enchanted spear attack, and you will send a yellow disturb icon(tuby spawn). Hit Shademan with an enchanted hammer attack, and you will send a green distub icon(heal enemy's shademan). --------------------- [5d]-Crossover Points --------------------- During crossover battles, you will accumulate crossover points, which you can exchange for protectors. To exchange your points you must first purify Shademan and get the PET item within the game. Then, if it is day, then go to the second floor of the inn, and talk to the doll, which will ask whether you wish to access. If night, go to the storage building, and talk to the doll, which will give you the choice of using storage, or accessing. Either way, accessing is the one if you want to trade in your points. The protectors you can get are the following: Proto Power Toad Power Mail of Luna Cloth Armor Mega Power Guts Power Blood-Soaked Cape Thief's Clothes It is 60 points to trade for a protector. The protector you get is random each time, so you may get doubles. --------------------------- [6]-Megaman Battle Network 5 --------------------------- This section is for Megaman Battle Network 5 ----------------------------------- [6a]-Megaman Battle Network 5 basics ----------------------------------- If you don't know how to play, then you shouldn't be crossover battling.:P ---------------------------------- [6b]-How to access crossover battle ---------------------------------- After powering up the GBA with the wireless adapter in, push start at the start screen, then instead of selecting continue, select crossover battle. You do not need to be at a certain point in the game to do a crossover battle. --------------------- [6c]-Crossover Battle --------------------- Hoorah! The controls are exactly the same as in the normal game, except on the Custom screen(which opens automatically), there is a BLOCK button, which will send all disturb icons back at Django, and no soul unisons. In the crossover battle, you will not have your normal folder or NaviCustomizer, instead you will have the following: Navi Customizer: as far as I can tell, its just 2 attack+1s Folder: 1-Sword S 1-Wide Sword S 1-Long Sword S 1-Cannon A 1-Cannon B 1-Cannon C 2-Vulcan2 A 1-Guard1 * 3-Batcannon1 * 3-Batcannon2 S 2-Batcannon3 R 1-Batcannon4 Z 1-Slasher B 1-Tornado R 2-Thunder * 1-Invisible * 1-Boomerang A 1-Panel Return * 1-Attack+10 * 1-Protoman B 1-Roll R 1-Numberman N In the crossover battle, you will fight Shademan, who fights almost exactly the same as in the game. He will teleport around, shoot bats at you, shoot beams, take swipes. If Django sends a red disturb icon, Shademan will use an attack that will hit you unless you are using invisible or guard1. If a green, then Shademan will be healed. If yellow, then a tuby will be spawned. If blue, then a mettaur will be spawned. If you counter shademan, then you will send a red disturb icon (devastating attack). Hit shademan with batcannon2, and you will send a blue disturb icon (shade crow spawn). Hit Shademan with batcannon1, and you will send a yellow disturb icon (status effect). Hit Shademan with batcannon3, and you will send a green distub icon (heal enemy's shademan). Hit Shademan with all three hits of batcannon4, and you will send one of each (each hit is one icon) ---------------------- [6d]-Crossover Points ---------------------- As you crossover battle, you will accumulate crossover points, which you can use for battle chips. To trade in your points, go to Oran Area 2. The Otenko Trader is in the right corner(as seen from the perspective of the GBA screen). You can choose to trade in 10,20,30,40, or 50 points. The more you trade, the rarer the chip will be. This is a list of chips that my friends and I have found: Otenko Django DjangoSP DjangoDS Shademan ShademanSP ShademanDS Pulse Arrow 1 Pulse Arrow 2 Pulse Arrow 3 Gun Del Sol 1 Gun Del Sol 2 Gun Del Sol 3 Gun Del Sol EX Black Wing I will add more as I find more. ------------- [7]-Versions ------------- 1.0-added all info 1.01-added my new email address and changed some minor things 1.5-FAQ has been added to a new website, and have updated sites allowed ALL protectors and ALL chips now in the lists. :) ----------------- [8]-End ----------------- Thank you for reading my first guide, and I hope you found it satisfactory. bye then. :D Oh yeah, thanks goes to my friends, whose obsessive need for crossover points gave me the info I needed to give some detailed information.
