Liked the game, had some time, so this guide is born... Hope it's helpful :)
This guide is all about the cute little viruses of Megaman Battle Network 2,
where to find them, what you can get from them, their relevant stats, etc.
If anything in here is wrong or you think should be added or what not, email
me at
[email protected]. Please don't sent me attachments that requires
installing, though, I simply won't and can't open those. Btw, if you are
getting emails from a
[email protected] dating later than December 2002,
it's not from me; that account has been giving me lots of grief and I've
abandoned it.
V1.0 (22/07/2002) First draft done. No one is going to see this draft
because I'm too embarassed by its lack of stuff, but at least I got the
majority of the formatting and basic info done.
V1.1 (23/07/2002) Presentable draft. Yes, I'm pretending Koto Mansion and most
of the WWW areas don't exist.
V1.2 (25/07/2002) Finished Koto Mansion and WWW areas plus a couple of other
virus updates. Practically done now!
V1.3 (05/08/2002) Big update! Finished all HP, damage and element info. Added
a chip list for easy reference. Plus included navi viruses and Gosp
Server1 and a little bit of reformatting. Phew...
V1.4 (28/12/2002) A minor update to polish this thing up a little. Added a FAQ
section and changed my email, too.
*-*-*-ABOUT VIRUSES AND THIS GUIDE-*-*-*
Viruses and virus families are listed in this guide in alphabetical order.
For viruses in a virus family, they are listed from the wimpiest version to
the strongest. Each upgrade in a virus version equals more HP and damage,
faster movement and increased attack frequency. I don't feel like typing that
out again and again, so assume that if the virus is a tougher version, it
means *at the very least* more HP, more damage, faster movement and increased
attack rate than the previous version. Sometimes the upgraded version also
gets a new ability, which I'll run by in the Comments.
The Comments section is where I'll talk about viral movement and attacking
behavior. E.g., having the Airshoes ability means that the virus floats
above panels, allowing it to travel over squares that are empty or broken
through. Viruses not having the Airshoes ability is confined to travelling
upon filled-in panels, therefore they can be trapped to one square by using
panel-breaking attacks. When I talk about rows and columns, I mean:
if this below is the battle field
# # # | % % % <- row
# # # | % % %
# # # | % % % | = front line
^ % = Virus' panels
| # = Megaman's panels
column
Element is the special element that the virus is aligned with. There are five
elemental categories in the game: Water, Fire, Wood, Electric and None. None
has no elemental weaknesses while Water is weak to Electric, Fire is weak to
Water, Wood is weak to Fire, and Electric is weak to Wood. Viruses take twice
as much damage from attacks of the element it is weak to.
Damage is the amount of HP the virus's main attack takes away from Megaman
in normal Style on a normal panel. Beside the damage I'll give the element
of the attack. NA stands for not applicable. All virus HP and damage values
stated are for normal mode.
The 'What' secion refers to what chips you can expect to get from them. If I
don't specify busting level, it usually means that you need around 10 (more
like S) to get it. The '~' symbol is my abbreviation for 'around', give or
take a maximum of 2 busting levels. There are no guarantees that you will
receive a chip; there's about a roughly 50% chance you could get some lousy
zennies instead. When Megaman is fighting a group of different viruses, the
chip you receive at the end is random; however, one virus's chip may be more
common than the other viruses' at a specific busting level.
The 'Where' section refers to where the virus can be found.
*-*-*-VIRUS LIST-*-*-*
Beetank Family
Comments: Very annoying, especially when combined with some other viruses,
like Windboxes, like they usually are. Though the bombs are slow, they
do damage to an area when they land. Plus, you see them too often.
Beetank types always stay within their column, with no Airshoes ability.
They stop briefly to launch their bomb, a projectile attack; they aim
for the panel Megaman is on, and their range is unlimited.
-Beetank 80HP
Element: None; Damage: 15 None

Comments: makes holy panels on the virus side and lava, ice, magnet and/or
poison panels on your side. They warp randomly on the entire battle
field, including Megaman's side, and never appears alone.

Buffy: See Puffy Family.
Bunny Family
Comments: A very proliferate family of viruses, as they can be seen in many,
many places. Their only annoyance is the zap ring's stun, which, if you
get hit, locks you in place for a couple of seconds for some other
virus's cheap shots.
Bunny types hop instantaneously and erratically on all squares; have no
Airshoes ability. They stop and charge their projectile shot before
firing; the shot travels down the row and can be blocked by obstacles.

CanDevil Family
Comments: A weird virus backed by a candle which can be destroyed independent
of the virus. The candle heals the virus over time, with each upgraded
candle healing the upgraded virus faster (and harder to destroy).
They move along one column and pause briefly to toss out a fireball down
Megaman's row which can be blocked by obstacles. No Airshoes ability.

Cloudy Family
Comments: Technically, these viruses don't hurt you, they just summon a
rainstorm over your head to hurt you instead. The storm cloud moves back
and forth in one column, so they are easy to avoid, but they do last for
a few seconds.
When they jump up very high they cannot be hurt, so attack them when
they are standing still or as they are just beginning their high jump.
Movement is erratic; suspends in high air to summon raincloud.
-Cloudy 80HP
Element: Water; Damage: 30 Water

DeathFire: See MettFire Family.
Dominerd Family
Comments: StoneBod when not attacking, i.e. takes only 1 damage, it attacks
by warping into Megaman's face and biting him, the only moment it is
vulnerable to regular attacks (they are vulnerable to guard-piercing
attacks in StoneBod mode). They have Airshoes and drift slowly along
one column when not attacking.
-Dominerd 100HP
Element: None; Damage: 100 None
What: CrShld1 P, CrsShld1 S
Where: Airplane Television
Castle Comp1, Castle Comp3, Castle Comp4, Castle Comp5
-Dominerd2 130HP
Element: None; Damage: 150 None
Comments: if the battle drags on for longer than 10 seconds, they'll
use Geddon1 to break up the arena and speed up the carnage
What: CrsShld2 A, CrsShld2 O
Where: UnderKoto
-Dominerd3 200HP
Element: None; Damage: 200 None
Comments: let them live for more than 3 seconds and they'll use Geddon1,
cracking all panels
What: CrsShld3 O, CrsShld3 P
Where: Undernet 7
Fishy Family
Comments: A very common virus and a very fast one. Fishy types move quickly
up and down their column until they spot you in the same row, then they
attack by dashing down the row. It takes a few seconds to charge their
dash, perfect time to get out of the way. They have the Airshoes ability
but their dash can be blocked by obstacles, including other viruses and
the Guardian Statue which they don't activate.
-Fishy 80HP
Element: None; Damage: 50 None
What: DashAtk *, DashAtk B, DashAtk D, DashAtk G (~9), DashAtk J (~7)

Playground Broken Toy, Okuden Guardian, Okuden Bear, Okuden Gas
Stove, Flight Board
-Fishy2 150HP
Element: Fire; Damage: 100 Fire
Comments: leaves a trail of burning flames in its wake. If Megaman steps
on a flame he takes 150 fire damage. The flames burn for a few
seconds, putting the row out of commission for the time being
(unless you can stand being burned).
What: Burner A, Burner B (~8), Burner F (~8), Burner L
Where: Flight Board, Undernet 4, Undernet 5, WWW Area 1
-Fishy3 ?HP
Element: ?; Damage: ? None
What: Zennies
Where: License tests and infected ice
Flamey Family
Comments: This virus is somewhat stationary, as in if Megaman is not in
the same row, it stays where it is. If it so much as catches a peep of
Megaman invading its row, it becomes enraged, shaking with fury for a
bit, and then angrily bounces down the row, punching out all of the
panels along the way. Megaman takes damage if he was stupid enough to
stick around. It has the Airshoes ability.
-Flamey 90HP
Element: Fire; Damage: 20 Fire
What: LineOut Q, LineOut T
Where: Okuden Gas Stove, Bomb Comp2, Bomb Comp4
-Flamey2 ?HP
Element: Fire; Damage: ? Fire
What: NA
Where: License tests and/or message board help requests
-Flamey3 ?HP
Element: Fire; Damage: ? Fire
What: NA
Where: License tests and/or message board help requests
Flappy Family
Comments: These viruses have too many HP, IMO, very annoying when you are
trying to bust them at the S level. They hop around on their side of the
battlefield erratically and then suddenly disappear and turn into huge
anvils above Megaman's head, intending to make some Navi pancake. Their
attacks are slow, so easy to avoid, but cracks the panel they land on.
They are out of the attack range of many attacks when they are up high
in the middle of their hop. They fall through panels that are empty,
meaning no 'aftershock'. No Airshoes ability.
-Flappy 100HP
Element: None; Damage: 20 None
What: Quake1 A, Quake1 W
Where: Mayl's Computer, Den Area 3
-Flappy2 180HP
Element: None; Damage: 40 None
Comments: attack leaves an 'aftershock' in a column, meaning even if
Megaman avided the attack, he would still take damage if he's in
the aftershock range (in this case, the same column)
What: Quake2 B
Where: Ameroupe Hotel Refrigerator, Air Comp2, Air Comp4, Air Comp5
-Flappy3 240HP
Element: None; Damage: 100 None
Comments: attack leaves a cross-shaped 'aftershock'
What: Quake3 Q, Quake3 W

Handy Family
Comments: Its time bomb is not dodgeable, but is destroyable. Also, once the
bomb leaves the Handy's hand, it's a separate entity: if you destroy
only the virus, its bomb is not automatically destroyed. No Airshoes
ability; it warps to the front line to set a time bomb in front of it
on Megaman's side.
-Handy 80HP

HardHead Family
Comments: Invincible when its red face is not exposed; only vulnerable to
non-guard-piercing attacks when it opens its mouth to attack Megaman.
It fires slow cannonballs (at unlimited range) that break the panels
they lands on. Stationary.
-HardHead 60HP
Element: None; Damage: 50 None
What: CannBall O, CannBall Q
Where: Center Lab Monitor, Koto Area, UnderKoto
-HardHead2

-HardHead3 160HP
Element: None; Damage: ? None
Comments: always appears with lavagon in Apart Comp3
What: NA
Where: Apart Comp3, License tests and/or message board requests
KillPlant Family
Comments: They spit seeds which function like high damage bombs if they land
on Megaman; their range is restricted: the seeds can only land on the
column closest to the front line in Megaman's field. If the seeds don't
hit a target, they become implanted in the panel they land on. In a few
secs they turn into target-seeking wooden spikes that can shift a
maximum of one row per column travelled, no backtracking. One seed
cancels another seed out if they land on the same panel.
Stationary, with no Airshoes ability.
-KillPlant 100HP

Lavagon 300HP
Element: Fire; Damage: ? Fire
Comments: Pops in and out of hole panels; every once in a while it does a
fire breath attack to one panel. Rarely appears and never alone.
There's also an ice version (named aptly icegon) and an electric version
which are apparently only used for testing purposes.
What: LavaDrag G, LavaDrag R, LavaDrag Y (Around 8)
Where: Apart Comp3
Magneaker Family
Comments: They have a Fishy-like dash attack and a bomb that stuns, not a
pleasant combo. Thankfully, they don't have Fishy-like speed, and the
bombs are slow, too. No Airshoes ability, so their dash can be blocked
by an empty panel as well as obstacles.
-Magneaker 160HP
Element: Electric; Damage: 80 Electric
Comment: stunning mini bomb (one panel)

Megalian Family
Comments: They warp around randomly, eventually into Megaman's row where they
lose their heads, I mean they toss their heads at you yo-yo style. Quite
painful, actually... no, not for them, I mean for Megaman.

What: ElecAura L
Where: Undernet 7
Mettaur Family
Comments: These viruses must breed faster than bunnies, because they seem to
be everywhere. They stay in their columns, with no Airshoes; if trapped
to one square, they attack continuously in desperation. Higher versions
tend to stay in their shells/shields when not attacking, thus only
vulnerable to panel-breaking attacks.
Their wave attacks affect one row and can be blocked by empty panels.
They attack in turns if they are with buddies of the same species.

MettFire Family
Comments: It doesn't do much, just erratically warps around on its side of
the battle field and then, suddenly, squishes its body into the floor
(in the back row and/or behind obstacles whenever possible) and summons
a barrage of meteors to incinerate Megaman in a fireball frenzy. Higher
versions summon more fireballs per volley. The panel where a fireball
will land on flashes yellow.
Ironically enough, the highest version of their chip (Meteor18) is not
from them.

Mole Family
Comments: Whack-a-mole or rather shoot-a-mole, except you can't ever miss.
If you do, the mole runs away. Random movement, always alone, does no
damage whatsoever on Megaman. Appears rarely.
-Mole 10HP

Moshy: See Mushy Family.
Mushy Family
Comments: A funny-look mushroom popping out of the grass randomly... any
grass, even grass on Megaman's side. Their weakness is that they can't
travel on non-grass squares and their attack don't work on non-grass
squares. If you destroy all the grass panels, forcing them to stand on
a non-grass panel, they tremble with fear or grass withdrawal and do
nothing. They have no Airshoes ability. Spice1/2/3 is good against them
because they always appear on plenty of grass.

Null Family
Comments: It shuffles around sluggishly on its side of the battlefield,
looking slow and stupid, but suddenly springs in front of Megaman to
punch him, knocking him back. If Megaman is behind an obstacle (e.g. ice
cubes, rock cubes), it pushes the obstacle into him to injure him. And
That's just its direct attack...
It heals itself magically over time and is too heavy to be blown around
by Fan and Wind. No Airshoes ability.

Octon Family
Comments: Stationary octopi-like viruses that blow bubble bombs out into
the battlefield. A bubble starts at a set damage; any attack you do on
the bubble increases its damage by the amount of damage you did on it.
When the bubble hits something (anything, including obstacles), it blows
up and damages all panels on the side it blew up in.
These viruses are super rare, appearing once in a blue moon and never
ever alone. This sucks because there's a very good chance you'll get
the chip its companions drop instead of its chip.

Comments: Kill them all in one shot or you can't scratch them at all.
Basically the game is trying to force you to learn some PAs. Once they

PuffBall Family
Comments: Their masks protect them from all regular attacks from the front
and all non-piercing attacks when they have the mask on. They attack
by planting themselves along the front line and sticking their masks
into Megaman's side of the battle field to inject poison into the panels
around the mask (including diagonal). If you let the battle drag they'll
use Areagrab to get closer.

Comments: This virus doesn't hurt you... it does something more annoying: it
charges at Megaman to steal his chips, leaving him to face its buddies

Shadow Family
Comments: Sinister dark viruses that are invincible to all but the bite of a
blade. They seem immobile for a while, but then they warp to Megaman's
side of the battlefield, changing into daggers (from the sides), axes
(from the back) and polearms (from the front) to mince Megaman to bits.
Use sword/blade (including shurikens, scissors, etc.) type chips only,
don't bother with anything else.

Comments: A ghostly virus you should kill in one shot; otherwise they'll use
recov# and be back at full health pronto. They loathe being in the same
row as Megaman and would warp as many times as necessary to ensure that
Megaman is in a different row. They attack after a lengthy disappearance
act by reappearing in front of Megaman and licking him. They have the
Airshoes ability; warps along one column.

Twisty Family
Comments: This family comprises of stationary viruses hiding in the back row,
using some remote device to control a thingamajig which leisurely roams
above your side of the battlefield, zapping the area below it once in a
while. The zap completely destoys the panel and damages Megaman if he
didn't scoot out of the line of fire. The zapper thing is only destroyed
if the Twisty virus is destroyed.

*-*-*-NAVI VIRUSES-*-*-*
I've decided to include the V3 navis because the game treats them like any
other viruses, meaning you encounter them randomly in an area, you can use
Loc Enemy on them and you can find them in Green Mystery Data. They just
happen to be stronger and higher leveled viruses than the garden variety.

*-*-*-FAQ-*-*-*
Q: What's Ameroupe?
A: It's the place with the castle and back alley ghetto, also Electopia.
Q: I can't find ****V3. Where is it?
A: They are in the locations I've written above in the Navi Viruses section.
However, it's completely random whether you'll ran into them or not. All
I can suggest for you to find them is to just wander around in that general
location and maybe you'll get lucky (or unlucky if you weren't looking for
them, murphy's law and all). You can use LocEnemy on those viruses.
Q: How do you beat protectos?
A: There are lots of ways to do it, but the most effective-for-all-protecto-
layouts solution I've found is the UltraBomb PA. The chips for this PA are
very easy to find, for Beetank#s (which drop them) are very common, and if
you S rank them, they all drop the O code one.
Now in your folder you should have 5 BigBomb O, 5 CrosBomb O, 5 LilBomb O
and 5 FullCust * (to help you assemble the PA easier) and whatever else you
want. The PA is LilBomb+CrosBomb+BigBomb and has a blast radius of 3x3
panels around the bomb's landing point, provided that the panel it landed
on isn't empty. It won't work if it landed in an empty panel.
Q: How do I S rank ****V3?
A: This depends totally on your playing style, but an all purpose method that
I can suggest is this setup: 5 FireBlad *, 5 AquaBlad *, 5 ElecBlad *, some
panel stealing chips (for bosses that prefer to stay in the back row), a
couple of FullCust * (to make the fight go faster) and 4/5 invincibility
type cards (for most bosses, I suggest Shadow3, but obviously it won't work
for some, like ShadowmnV3).
The chips are easy to get, DreamSword does a nice 600 per slice and the
Shadow3 chips allow you ignore the virus' attack for a while. It may not be
the uber method, but it's easy to setup and easy to execute. If nothing
else, this may give you some ideas on how to find a better method.
