Guide:Medarot G and Medabots AX Guide
This is a guide for Medarot G and to a lesser extent, Medabots AX. in fact, there aren't many guides on Medarot G, but a few for AX. I'll explain a lot as I go, using data from my research (having CarlosP's playthrough of G and Medarot Dictionary to thank for that.) More is coming soon!

Version Differences
Between AX and G, there is a world of diffs -- AX is NOT canon and a weaker version of G as due to sharing the same engine, Metabee and Rokusho are weak. G continues (and sadly, concludes) the story begun in Medarot 5, while AX is an anime tie-in. In fact, AX is harder, due to Metabee/Rokusho being weaker than Dechotom/Adolphin.
AX has little story, G does have much of a story, but its moreso the last time we'll see the characters from 1 to G, until DS and 7. G has two final Bosses -- Gou, for the main story and Ikki Tenryou for the Postgame.
AX only has Sakekaasu as the final boss, and the reward for the tourney is merely Arcbeetle (Rintarou and Hikaru's partner, though Rintarou is rarely credited as the first kid to have one, in a certain continuity). G's tourney reward is the infamous Hardness 10, who was used by a certain someone...
Continuity
This Game is the sequel to Medarot 5 and the last time for a while you'll see Koishimaru Tensan and Omeda/Nekuu until Medarot 7. This story is set in 2027, like Medarot 5, being roughly 3 years after the time period of Medarot 2 - 4 and Navi (circa 2022 to 2024). However, the changes from Medarot 5 have been dropped, as Medaskill is back to being Medaforce.
Tips
When you start, go to Practice Robattles. They're represented, by blue spheres next to the attractions. Don't go to any stars, as these are real Robattles, not practice. You need to practice, as Medals early on in both AX/G are weak, having not that great SHT/GRP/EFT/DEF.
Practice Matches in G are all you get until you go through them all in any order. In AX, most everything's unlocked sans the tournament. Early on, hit at least Level 6 or more. Why? Because the partner Medal has "Anything Goes" as a Strategy Panel, and you need it to get better ones.
Story (Medarot G)
When you begin, the Densuke Land Tournament has been announced, and Koishimaru is raring to go --- if it wasn't for the fact that his Medarotch is malfunctioning, thus, Omeda/Nekuu is all he has.
Thankfully, Shigeyuki gives Koishimaru a new set of parts, as Koishimaru's old KBT-0/KWG-0 parts are unavailable -- the KBT-1 Model Dechotom, a powered shooting type / KWG-1 Model Adolphin, a speedy grappling type.
You got:
(MEDAROT G ver. KABUTO):
Kabuto Medal -- Omeda's soul. He's only good at SHT, not much on all others. the Medaforce he knows is Issei Shageki/Barrage, a Medaforce that unleashes homing fireballs to hit a foe.
KBT-11CH "Gun-Metal" (Missile attack, 3 uses)
KBT-12CH "Quick Trigger" (Rifle attack, fast, quickly reloads)
KBT-13CH "Knock Hammer" (Gatling Attack, slow and must be used after rifle attacks)
KBT-14 "Grip Frame" (mid-low speed, SHT type Biped legs)
-
(MEDAROT G ver. KUWAGATA):
Kuwagata Medal -- Nekuu's soul. He's good at GRP, not good on all others. His Medaforce is Tate Issen/Vertical Line, a shockwave that is generated by a vertical slash from his own sword.
KWG-11CH Stare (Scan action)
KWG-12CH Sewing Eye (quick, chainable Sword action)
KWG-13CH Reamer (a heavy and slow Hammer action)
KWG-14CH Keyring (high speed GRP type Biped legs)
-
Back in business, you'll have to test the parts, and, the game allows you to practice. Your second Medarot, a female one, will have Dark Wizar's head, Sanizurau's left arm and legs, and Chucky's right arm, and you only have a Medaka Medal for this body.
There are 7 attractions, or areas, in Densuke Land. Each has a a practice field and a trial match. the areas are:
Ancient Ruins
Factory
Lake
Forest
Polar Region
Seashore
Tournament Site.
You only have the Ancient Ruins and the Forest at first. clearing one of them unlocks a new Stage, as you only can practice.
Go practice the first set of times, one practice fight in each area and you'll run into Saki (Ruins/Forest), Yamato and Benii (Any second stage), Team Waru Gaki, aka, Asahi and Osamu, and Konoha (Any third stage).
