Part 23: Q: What's his name? A: Sunayama.
We're out of here.
Everybody hum your own elevator music. Interactive LP!!
Damn. There are more viruses in Hades Areas to show. I didn't show them last time because the potential S-ranks would have been much lower. Guess I'll come back here when I'm able.
To be stuck on an island... or catch a boat. Tough decisions
Yeah, we haven't seen him this whole time on Hades Isle, have we?
Probably would've noticed that amazing cowboy hat.
Lan has put on his smug helmet, as indicated by the best of co-commentators: Blink Animation.
Ain't nothing wrong with that
So you were in the studio the whole time? HMMM.
He was in his cowboy hat the whole time. Anything else is suspect.
These games hate foreigners. Well, actually, Tora is still in the Top 4 and he was from Swampopolis and god knows where Netbattler Q is from.
I'm not saying all Netopians suck at netbattling, but um
YOU! You've changed your tune, I see. By the end of this scenario, *I* will be the one with the fangirls!
Keep dreaming
Next lesson, class! It's time to reveal the super secret second function of ModTools.
For this to work, I need to un-equip Custom+2. I can't equip any programs that will cause errors in the NaviCust. Just click "RUN"
Now press Select once you see "OK"
We're going to enter in this code instead.
Oh, look! That gave us a free 100 HP increase! Yes, these are known as "EX Codes". If you don't have any errors in your NaviCust, you can input a different to instead give MegaMan free stats and abilities. Let's take this further and see what we can really do.
I... huh that's pretty cool.
Different code. This one gives...?
Yes. We just gave ourselves a 1000 HP increase. ModTools. Is. The. Shit.
This is exactly cheap enough to interest me greatly.
MY HP IS TOO DAMN HIGH!
Oh fuck. I forgot to equip my actual folder. WHO CARES! Our HP is so god damn high, I could buster everything. Can you just imagine if I had all the HP memories, plus additional HP+500 NaviCust parts?
I am a fucking tank of godness! You cannot kill me!
At least until your health gets so high it overflows
giving you -1000 hp
Okay, maybe you can. You see, HP+1000 has the drawback of creating Poison Panels where you step. In Battle Network 3, there is no way to nullify a poison panel's damage. There are ShadowShoes(doesn't crack panels) FloatShoes(negates panel effects EXCEPT for poison) and AirShoes (lets you walk over holes) in this game. FloatShoes is later expanded to negate Poison Panels in future games. Poison Panels won't generate if you're over a hole, so you may want to run a Geddon strategy if you really want to use this ability.
If you're pulling a sweet Geddon strat you're probably good enough at this game that you don't need +1000hp.
HP increases up to 350 don't come with a penalty. But after that, you start running into bugs. Some of the HP increases come with losing a chip on your Custom Screen. While that seems worse than Poison Panels, I'd like to remind you that you can offset that bug by putting in Custom+1 NaviCust parts in. If you ask me, Poison Panels are worse because there is jack and shit that can be done about it.
We're going to be using this code. This one gives us Super Armor and doesn't come with an attached bug. Super Armor makes it so we don't flinch which means we don't lose rank points for getting hit in battles. We also don't get our attacks interrupted. MORE S-RANKS!
So... GutsStyle is pointless? Outstanding.
There are a lot of EX Codes. Notably, there's another to give you AntiDamage NCP, which basically gives you the same effect as the chip EPM and I have in our folders. I won't be using most of them due to the attached bugs, but those of you playing along should definitely experiment with them.
Even the game itself acknowledges The Legendary Man's awesome beard. YOU CANNOT DENY!
...Brak Charge??
...awesome
BreakCharge essentially makes our buster becomes able to instantly break obstacles and shields once it's charged. This is useful, but you'll probably want to stack Charge+1's to make it worthwhile. This doesn't mean anything for ShadowStyle because our buster is Invis
Aw yeah, being taught how to hack by a dude in a beard.
Hellz yeah. MetalMan Alpha can be fought for real now. That means a new chip! Not gonna put a video up because we already saw this.
Watch out for that hairclip, man. Most dangerous thing about MetalMan.
I still haven't re-equipped my folder. This is still easy.
On one hand, I can show off the GutsPunch command code that Mr.Famous taught us!
You have no idea how hard that was to capture. It still only does 80 damage. But we just stole GutsMan's move.
: Why's a white guy always gotta copy a brother for, huh?
You're both punching each other. A Good Fight.
Not using it because it only hits one thing.
Very pretty hairclip he got, though.
Well thanks for that.
DID SOMEBODY SAY FRIENDS?!
No, they're dead.
I'M SURE THEY'RE FINE.
Why? He's a dick!Fine, we have to be nice.
Well apparently we don't have anything better to do except look for our buddy Chaud. Our pal. Our guy.
This NPC clues us in on where Chaud is. She's actually looking in the same direction that Lan is.
Aw don't worry, you'll have fangirls too someday.
See? HE'S A DICK!
HOORAY! IT'S CHAUD!
HOORAY!!!
But then we can't get ProtoMan chips. And those are top tier for S-ranking.
Only because we're probably BEST FRIENDS
Otherwise I wouldn't have given a shit, really. True story.
PROBABLY BEST FRIENDS (Chaud is a cool guy)
Bitch, why did you send us out here if you were gonna get him anyway?
I hear you're hilarious when you're annoyed. And you're easily annoyed. This TV lady knows good TV.
Not asking "what's with you now", more like "generally what is your problem".
A simplistic answer for a simplistic person. What's wrong with entering something just to have fun? That's why I took over the Let's Play!
"Fuck you" isn't a good enough reason. Now if it was something like "Fuck you, dad"...
Fuck you, asshole. I can kill this game's superbosses RIGHT now if I wanted.
"I want my Daddy's love. He never hugged me as a child."
Everything can be put down to lack of hugs.
I guess it would shock you to know you two become best friends. SPOILERZ GAIZ
EVERYBODY IS FRIENDS. even the enemies. Best frenemies.
I'm with Lan on that one.
This game continues to mock my nerdiness.
This game, man.
No, they're dead! Shut up! But hey, they made new NPC dialogue for what had to be not even 5 minutes of playtime separating the two. Kudos.
THEY'RE PROBABLY FINE.
Were you listening? THEY'RE DEAD
I WANT TO BELIEVE
I'm so glad we had this discussion.
Clown character best character.
Yeesh, pressing the Help button prompts this response from MegaMan. I get it! I suck at remembering to switch folders! It happens to everyone!
And blink animation co-commentator best co-commentator. Mega is so done with Lan's shit.
Time to kick some more ass.
"1st N1" First Number 1?
Looking at their 'logo' in the background there, I could swear it's actually the n-i.
Once again, simplicity.
"I guess I'm here, so I may as well". A motivation all of us can relate to.
He raises an excellent point.
Shots fired. It's on now. If I was on that stage I probably would have started hurling insults.
//Like this?
--or this?????
He should write a biography.
Two Chauds, a Lan and a Q. Nice tournament.
Four clowns? What we got here is a circus, not a tournament.
Awww, poor baby. We all would rather be fighting Chaud, it's ok.
You're not even worth a video anymore.
I knew the PET case should have been a knife attachment. Damn. Need to bug Daddy for that next time.
Emperor Palpatine will have words with you later.
He who spams Gater wins the battle, actually.
Dude you can't call me out in a post I'm co-commenting.
Execute!
I heard "Mutilate".
Not worth a video, guys. He'll be dropped in 3 turns.
I do appreciate the incredible cheapness of his navi, though. Heck yeah getting pawns to do all your work.
He's already almost dead after two rounds. My chips hit too fucking hard.
I am MegaMan!
User of Swords!
And the White Power Ranger.
Don't hate.
Fits the target audience.
Under 3 turns? No damage points loss(Super Armor)? That was a fucking S-rank!
Always love shutting people like that up.
Huh.
Oh. You were actually stressed out and you acted that way as a means to deal with it? I...can actually relate to that.
Is that because you was both acting the same way? Eh? EH??
Well he's no Wily, it's not like he can just pull off a completely retarded plan instead.
Your future versions aren't much better. I wouldn't say that.
Yeah, chip-farming!
Still a dickish, if true, thing to say.
Wait, Tora and Lan are friends? Since when? Oh right, if you NetBattle someone, and they don't want to hurt you, then they're friends!
BEST FRIENDS!
*Screen fade*
Chaud only loses to one clown.
With a side of MegaMan.
The puns, man.
But she is no male.
You're pregnant?
Lan's pregnant??
Oh. Damn, I thought she died.
I told you man, PROBABLY FINE!
Nothing else to do but see them, really.
Really surprised the fall itself didn't kill somebody. Battle Network characters must have a lot of calcium in their diet. Shit, man. MilkMan.exe does his job well.
LAUGH! LAUGH AT HER FAILURE!
If you think about it, it makes sense. She's got such a giant head, it's just not aerodynamic or something physics I dunno.
I tried.
LAUGH!
DAMMIT DON'T STEAL MY BIT, DEX!
But Yai didn't study.
Ba-dum tish
We can't go there because the traffic cones are too big.
Well obviously
And the traffic cones!
AND THE N1 GRAND PRIX which is more important than our BFF? Maybe??
For someone who hit their head on a huge ass fall, you're surprisingly concious.
I'm a bit disappointed I can't be very technical in this update because of all the cutscenes, but eh, what are you gonna do?
And I'm kkiiiind of running out of things to say.
But never things to draw.
Sunayama really should have opted for waivers.
I'm sure the lawyers Yai could hire could rip any such waiver apart, anyway.
Yes. Your mugshot isn't any different.
But look at how swollen her head is!
Right? Please.
Naw, that seems legit. Hospitals, man. Psssh.
Yes, win it. For Love, For Fame, FOR GLORY!
FOR YOUR BEST FRIENDS AND STUFF
Oh, you can fight GutsMan Alpha again.
GutsMan best man
Once again, not worth a video.
Time to get BugFrags. Use a time stopper chip when you see him raise his arms like that.
Cut-scenes. Cut-scenes everywhere.
You know what's really intense? Whatever the hell is going on in that poster behind. Whoah.
Hmm, maybe Chaud loses to all clowns.
A Normal Navi is holding his own against ProtoMan. Once again proving that it isn't the folder that makes you great. It's just you.
Or proving that it isn't ProtoMan that's great, it's HeelNavis that are terrible.
Someone who believes hard work wins out over cheap and noob strategies.
i don't understand
He was holding back the whole fucking time. What a badass.
He's so anime
HE SPEAKS!
No dessert until after dinner-
wait shit, no. Close enough?
Nice mugshot, dude.
Yeah, little underwhelming transformation, there.
Zoo...Gwah...Zaa
(Don't drag out the fight unnecessarily. You'll lose that way.)
Zwah...
(DesertMan's language is pretty interesting. With one word, he can say many, many things. He probably honed his language whilst trying to grow up to be a farmer, but he was kicked off his father's farm due to Brobdingnagian Metacarpus Syndrome. He thus decided to live out his days as a Navi, no doubt coming across many females whom he loved. But they could not touch him, for he is made of sand. Plus, that shit gets in your clothes and who wants that. It's a sure fire way for the pants to come UP. )
Gwah-hyuck? I kind of imagine his guy as sounding like he came out of Banjo-Kazooie.
Hmm, ratings...
Very important.
...drama. Could he be...?
A smart cool dude who knows what's good for TV?
Hey, why is MEGAMAN's HP in the top left corner? Capcom pls.
Oh. I thought it was just... 420
a good time for dessert metamorphosis
Screen goes all apeshit and starts swirling. You can see the fuckup by Capcom in the lower left corner over there.
Flicker effect! The screen starts blinking white to simulate that. I just have the
Interactive LP! Blink your eyes rapidly to simulate this effect!!
Needs more color, bro
I've seen better.
Story immersion!
He inches ever closer...
Wow yeah, excellent job there Capcom. Good try.
Can't tell if my screenshot timing is helping to represent the story or not.
ProtoMan fights with sunglasses, he doesn't have any problems whilst fighting blind, kthnx. It's cool that Chaud taught ProtoMan to fight with his other senses. If that was MegaMan in there, he would need to get saved.
IF ONLY he was wearing some sort of cool shades that could have prevented this
alas
His Desert Mirage is STILL going, you know. Hitting DesertMan doesn't stop it.
Told you. Totally not the bad guy.
Nawwwww I'm sure he's fine and a cool guy.
The game's camera actually focuses on him for this.
That's kind of hilarious
OH NO he appeared on international TV without his hat?? Oh man what a clown.
Probably a good response to somebody who asks "Why doesn't the WWW just kill Lan at his house?" Because doing so would bring unwanted attention. The bad guys are still dumb.
im pretty sure lan's mum could take 'em on.
No, Sunayama is bullshitting all of you. They all like to remain in secret until they start putting their plans together. THAT's when they publicly start terrorizing. Sunayama is just an attention whore.
Sunayama: still pretty cool.
: ..in this event, which is being broadcast live around the world, you aim to show the entire planet the power of the https://www.
Yeah, except you fucked up and revealed yourself! You realize Chaud can have the place surrounded by Officials within seconds, right?
Yeah ideally when you a pull a plan like this you make sure that you can actually take on the officals you're planning to beat.
What a clown.
Yet another valid counterpoint! "Hurr, you got beat by a gradeschooler."
Except it JUST KEEPS HAPPENING to the https://www.
Huh. Oh. I get it. If you've been paying attention, you can probably guess what Sunayama is getting at.
The dude's a master of drama. Best cowboy hat / TV dude ever.
Well, this sucks.
Totally not a trap?
And no, we can't just jump Sunayama and pummel him. He has "insurance".
I didn't catch it, but Sunayama tells Chaud to come to the editing room.
What a twist!!
Of course we're going to interfere! We're protagonists! We meddle!
It's like 90% of what we do!
Next time on Battle Network 3!
Remember that GutsImpact I chip I bought a couple of updates back? Well...
Lemme just drop this guy here as a nice hint of what I'll do.
