Guide:Medarot 2 / 2 CORE / Medabots guide

This is a Guide for Medarot 2 / Medarot 2 Core or simply known as Medabots.

Here I document the differences between both games and try to explain what parts you will need during the playthrough.

Without further ado, lets go!!

Chapter 1

You start of playing as Ikki Tenryou, a boy who is a fan of Medabots. Right now, he is doing his usual routine: visiting the Lab.

You need to go to the northern room from the enterance and go to the western room of the lab. If you do this, Ikki will enter a conversation with an old man, this man is Doctor Aki, a reseacher on Medabots. He will ask what Ikki's name is, and Ikki will jog the man's memory. Dr. Aki will explain that he's busy right now, and directs Ikki to Nae's office in the lab. Once Ikki tries to go there he'l be knocked down by a rude Scientist --only for Nae to show up and talk sense into him.

For those who watched the anime for Medabots, you'll recognize that the scenario is different, and if you've seen only the first season, you might not recognize Nae.

The fool gawks at Nae, and lets Ikki pass, Nae shows Ikki her lab, and shows him 4 prototype Medabots:

• Flame Tisala, known as Saldron in the dub,

• Aquacrown,

• Wind Cecil, Known as Windsail in the engish dub,

• and Earthkrono.

Nae will explain that Ikki is free to enter her lab anytime and Ikki leaves. Ikki looks at the time and rushes home, only for his mother, Chidori to give him an errand.

You'll have to go to the shop Hopmart, and get Retort Curry / Spice-A-Roni(dub) for Ikki's mom, only for a teenage boy to get yelled at by his boss. That boy is known as Hikaru 'Henry' Agata, and he just got himself in hot water with his boss for buying expensive parts. The parts aren't his, as Hikaru is doing secret work for Doctor Aki.

Henry forces Ikki to trade in his money for the parts, and Ikki leaves.

You got:

• (Metabee ver)

KBT01-M / KBT-11220 - Metal Beetle

Head part: Missile / Meta-Missile

Right arm part: Revolver / Meta-Revolver

Left arm Part: Sub-Machinegun / Meta-Machinegun

Leg part: Ochitsuka

• (Rokusho ver)

KWG01-M / KWG-11237 - Head Scissors

Head part: Antenna

Right arm part: Chanbara Sword

Left arm part: Pipo Hammer

Leg part: Tatacker

Ikki, scolded by his mother, goes to his room and assembles his Medabot-- only to find out that it doesn't work without a medal. Ikki's father, Jouzo Tenryou arrives from work only to confront a strange man calling himself the Kaito Retort / Phantom Renegade(dub), the man gives Jouzo a Kabuto Medal / Kuwagata Medal that Jouzo gives to his son Ikki.

You got

• (Metabee ver)

Kabuto Medal.

Personality: Hot-Headed -- Aims for heavily armored or strong foes and supports others.

Metabee is hotheaded and prefers to work together with other Medabots to take down foes instead of working alone.

• (Rokusho ver)

Kuwagata Medal

Personality: Cool -- Aims for weakly armored foes and supports themselves

Rokusho is calm and likes working alone, finding it hard to work with other Medabots.

Exited to have his first Medabot, Ikki name his partner Metabee or Rokusho demending on the version.

When Ikki and Metabee / Rokusho leave, Ikki's friend Erika Amazake shows up and noticing Metabee / Rokusho offers to robattle with Ikki. Ikki looks worried, only for Erika to explain that this is a practice Robattle:

Battle 1 Erika Amazake and Brass

Opponent:Sailor-Multi (SLR01-F)

• Strategy:

This is a practice fight so nothing will be won or lost. You only gain experience.

• • (Metabee ver)

Remember Brass relies on her Variable Hair to Scan, so open with Metabee's Machinegun to do heavy damage as Brass wasted a turn. Metabee might get lucky and do a Critical, so continue by using Metabee's Meta-Revolver and Meta-Machinegun.

• • (Rokusho ver)

If you want Rokusho to do more Damage, have him Scan first, then use his Chanbara Sword to do damage. Finish with the Pipo Hammer.

After this Erika tells Ikki to go to the Medabot Tournament at school. When Ikki and Metabee / Rokusho go there, Erika complains and tells Ikki that the Screws have total control of the place,and forces Ikki to fight them.

Samantha taunts Ikki, and tells him to fight Sloan. Sloan tries to intimidate Ikki and challenges him to fight:

Battle 2- Sloan and Totalizer

Opponent: Totalizer(Model TOT01-M) Medal: Tortoise Medal- Personality: Trickster (Damages a part the foe is trying to use)

• Strategy:

• • (Metabee ver)

Totalizer is slow, and tries to damage a part the foe tries to use, and the terrain doesn't help him. Try to disable his legs as he'll just go slower. Metabee can do heavy damage if he gets lucky, and you must try to dodge, so don't Snipe at him.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Again he's slow and Rokusho is fast enough to to heavy damage to Totalizer's legs even without scanning. Be sure to use Rokusho's Chanbara Sword until you can finish Totalizer off.

Sloan will groan about his loss and Samantha will send Spike to fight Ikki.

Battle 3 - Spike and Krosserdog(original game) / Cyandog (CORE)

Opponent: Krosserdog (Model DOG-1X / DOG-01-M) / Cyandog (Model DOG-00-M / ) Medal: ? Medal Personality ???

• Strategy:

• • (Metabee ver)

You'll be facing another shooting Medabot. Cyandog is almost as fast as Metabee, and isn't compatible with his medal, so he's weaker than Metabee. Metabee can just disable Cyandog's arms and legs but has to be careful when sniping.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Rokusho should Scan and stick to the Chanbara Sword, finishing Cyandog with his Pipo Hammer.

Annoyed, Samantha challenges Ikki herself:

Battle 4 - Samantha and Peppercat

Opponent: Peppercat (Model CAT01-F) Medal: Queen Medal -- Personality ???

• Strategy:

• • (Metabee ver)

Metabee must be careful, despite the fact that being careful isn't his middle name. Peppercat is evasive and sneaky, being able to use her Thunder attacks on him at any time. Metabee must use his Meta-Missile, being able to use 100% accurate Missile attacks, and his semi-accurate Meta-Revolver if he gets lucky.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Rokusho needs to scan, and use his Chanbara Sword, because of the fact that he can evade as long as he doesn't use his Pipo Hammer, which is a Reckless skill. Once Peppercats legs are damaged, she can't evade any more and Rokusho can damage her with his Pipo Hammer.

After this, the Screws gang up on Ikki and Metabee / Rokusho, and in a heated moment Metabee / Rokusho uses the Medaforce Ultra Shot / Spiral Bolt. The Screws scatter and Ikki is free to roam the school and train. It's a good idea to reach lv10 for Metabee /Rokusho so that they master the Medaforce.

Chapter 1 - Nae event

Leave the school and and Ikki will meet Karin Junmai. after that, go to Nae's lab and select one of six medals:

• Bat Medal - good with Anti-Air parts

• Kappa Medal - Good with Anti-Sea parts

• Mouse Medal - Good with Scanning and Grapple parts

• Chameleon Medal - Good with Stealth and Shooting parts

• Rabbit Medal - Good with Time based and Shooting parts

• Monkey Medal - Good with Interrupt , Shooting and Melee parts

In the Kuwagata version, it's a good idea to get the Rabbit Medal so you can name it as and use Warbandit. Be sure to get his head part Tension Up, as Rokusho will get a speed boost, and you need a shooting Medabot, so get the Battle Rifle.

Once you get the Medal leave.

Chapter 2 - A Rival Appears

Erika gets wind of a new story involving a Medabot that tickles girls, and sends Ikki and Metabee / Rokusho to find it. The trio bump into the Medabot and Arika furiously chases it until it flees to a abandoned warehouse.

Ikki goes there and finds a strange man there. The man reveals himself to be a Rubberobo gang member and attacks Ikki:

Battle 5 -- Rubberrobo gang member

Opponent: Foxuno (CORE) / ??? (Original)

• Strategy

• • (Metabee ver)

You'll have to avoid using Metabee's Meta-Machinegun for this fight as Foxuno uses Press attacks on his head part. Only use that part when Foxuno leaves himself open.

Its a good idea to get one of Foxuno's arm parts for a Melee based Medabot that you'll need, namely a customized Sumilidon.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Scan first, and use the Chanbara Sword, until Foxuno's arms are broken or wait for him to leave himself open with a Reckless attack.

After beating the thug, the Select Force arrives and Ikki hides. The corrupt Captain leaves after hauking the thug away.

In the warehouse, you'll find a:

• (Metabee ver)

Tortoise Medal

Personality: Trickster (Damages a part the foe is trying to use)

Parts it likes: Laser and Beam parts.

• (Rokusho ver)

Snake Medal

Personality: Trickster

Parts it likes: Bug and Virus parts.

Return to Omikuji School quickly after giving Erika her skirt back, and Ikki and Metabee / Rokusho will encounter Koji Karakuchi and Sumilidon / Warbandit.

These two beat up the Screws, having sworn to get revenge on the one responsible for tickling Karin. Once you meet up with Erika, she will push you into fighting Koji:

Battle 6 -- Koji Karakuchi and Sumilidon / Warbandit

Opponent: Sumilidon (STG-19207 / STG00-M) Medal: Cat Medal Personality: Vague (No preference, balanced stats) / Warbandit (KLN-11214 / KLN00-M) Medal ? Medal Personlality: .

• Strategy

• • (Metabee ver)

Your rival is a Sumilidon, and his head part Hunter, uses a Shot Trap that damages shooting Medabots. His head is one of the parts you need to get, as in a later fight it comes in handy.

Use the Medaforce to blast Sumilidon and finish off with it again if Metabee didn't do enough damage.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Your rival is Warbandit, a high speed shooting Medabot. Have Rokusho destroy his arms with the Chanbara Sword, and finish him off with the Medaforce.

Like I said before make sure to get Sumilidon's / Warbandit's head part Hunter / Tension Up as they'll be useful later on.

After this, Erika will complain about Ikki not using the Medaforce to win and leaves.

Chapter 3 - The Mt. Odoro Incident

Go back home, Ikki's dad will give him a lunchbox with a Male Tinpet. After that, go upstairs to Ikki's room and get the Penlight. Leave and set up you second Medabot, it could be a Krosserdog (In 2 CORE you can find all his parts in rare encounters) or a customized Warbandit / Sumilidon depending if you got the head parts Tension Up(Rokusho) / Hunter(Metabee) and the left arm parts Battle Rifle(Rousho) / Rapier(Metabee) and shooting based / grapple based biped leg parts, with a Rabbit Medal(Rokusho) / Mouse Medal(Metabee).

Go to the School to see the Screws stirring up trouble and trying to go to mount Odoro. Follow Erika there and she will request a warm-up battle:

Battle 6: Erika Amazake and Brass

Opponents: Sailor-Multi (SLR01-F) Medal ??? , Pretty Prime (VAL00-F) Medal ???

• Strategy

• • (Metabee ver)

Since Metabee has the Medaforce, why not charge it up and blast Pretty Prime? You've already got the Hunter and a Medal that has Melee skill (You actually need the Spider Medal for this job!), so set up traps for Brass and then beat her up if you can. Be careful, Pretty Prime can freeze opponents with her lance, she counterattacks, and she has a heavily armored shield.

• • (Rokusho ver)

Since you've got Rokusho and Warbandit, try having Warbandit speed up Rokusho to give him time to use the Medaforce so that Pretty Prime can be knocked out as it'll take too long and too dangerous to simply barrage her with a mix of Melee and Ranged attacks. Once Pretty Prime is weakened, have Warbandit or Rokusho finish her off when she isn't trying to counter. after that you can disable Brass pretty easily.

After that Ikki is free to roam Mt. Odoro, and if you go north a screen, you should see a tree. Interact with it to find a Rubberrobo in a easy optional fight.

Go west and you'll encounter a Boy. He complains about his Medabot being stolen, and sends out his Toybox / Starpeda to fight Metabee / Rokusho:
