Style Information-
Once you obtain Chng.bat at the Yumland Treasury, you will be able to change
styles. A style change occurs every 280 battles you participate in. The style
you get depends on how you fight these battles. There are elements attached to
most the styles, which decide what your charged shot will be and is randomly
determined what element you get with your style.
Elements:
-Heat Charge shot is a powerful flamethrower with a 3-panel range.
-Aqua Charge shot is like a Bubbler chip, and it charges super-fast!
-Elec Charge shot is like a ZapRing chip, and it stuns.
-Wood Charge shot is like a Twister chip, with a 2-panel range.
Style Type:
-Cust You start with 7 battlechips at the start of each turn; use battlechips
a lot to get this
-Guts Your attacks don't get interrupted, getting hit doesn't affect your
Busting Level, and your Buster's Power and Rapid are changed; use your
Buster a lot to get this.
-Shld You start with a barrier and can make a shield; use defensive chips a
lot to get this.
-Team You can put 8 Navi Chips in a folder, use Navi chips a lot to get this.
-Nrml You start with this, and it has no element or abilities.
-Hub Has the power of all the styles, including starting with 10 chips, and
it has no element, but you have half your HP.
Earning HubStyle-
Earn an S Rank on all the v3 Navis except Bass (you can keep track with the
girl behind the tree in ACDC Town) and you will get HubStyle on your next
style change. It has the power of all the styles, has no element, and you
start with 10 chips, but you have half-HP. If you decline the change or later
erase it, you will never get it back.
Stars-
Yellow Star: Finish the main story.
Green Star: Complete the WWW Areas and beat the real Bass.
Red Star: Complete your Library.
Blue Star: Use all 31 Program Advances at least once.
Purple Star: Earn all 10 Secret Chips.
Duplicate Chips!-
This is a nifty trick enabling you to duplicate 'free' chips (Chips from
Mystery Data, e-Mail, trades, and Netdealers) by beating Gospel.
1. Save in front of a 'free' battlechip.
2. Get the battlechip, and WITHOUT SAVING go and beat Gospel.
3. The battlechip should still be there. Get it again if you like and
repeat the process.
4. You can string together multiple battlechips in a run to save time.
Hard Mode-
After getting all 5 Stars input the following button combination on the title
screen after highlighting New Game: Left, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left,
Right, Right. If you did it right the New Game option should be Orange. Press
A and you will start from the beginning (don't worry it didn't erase your old
one!) but the enemies will have 50% more HP and the Network option is
disabled. However once you beat it you get a awesome reward: A Sanctuary chip
in both of your save files.
Determining your Busting Level-
Busting Level is a numerical ranking on well you played out the battle. It is
ranked on a scale of 1(being the lowest) through 10(higher) then S(the
highest). The higher your level, the more often you will get a Battlechip
instead of Zenny and what code/how much money you will get. Simply put, to get
an S rank defeat an enemy fast, without getting hit, and not moving much. Here
is a chart to calculate your Busting Level yourself.
Viruses: Navis:
Time | Points Time | Points
5 s or less | 7 30 s or less| 10

12.01-36 s | 5 40.01-50 s | 6
Over 36 s | 4 Over 50 s | 4

then beefing it up immensely.
