Rockman X DiVE/Script

Rockman X DiVE script.

Beginning
...

Weird...

I was just playing Mega Man X like I always do...

The screen got all weird... I feel light as a feather, too...

(The screen changes, showing a tunnel with screenshots from different games)

[???] Sorry I scared you! You're not dreaming. There is nothing wrong with your screen.

This is the entrance to the cyberspace. We call it the "Deep Log". It was just chance that you found the entrance to the Deep Log!

We store game data here, and there's a lot of memory storage, too. Memories of a precious gamer like you, having fun with games and loving them.

How many games are there in the world? How many gamers? Well, that's how many Deep Logs there are.

This right here is the data storage for the Mega Man X game you were just playing. This is your Deep Log.

...Hmm, was that long-winded?

(The area becomes red and the screens are damaged)

Let me explain the worldview a bit more... Does it feel different from how it was just now?

This Deep Log contains precious information about the Mega Man X Series.

It's been stored and managed like this for decades. After all this time, corruption and other problems have caused some program errors.

Look! The Mega Man X data and the Mega Man X3 data are having issues...

But we don't think it's just corruption due to age, There must be a specific cause behind all of it.

In order to recover the data, and to protect gamers' precious memories, we're going to have to come up with some solutions...

Oh, is someone coming...?

[Unknown sound] Huh? You can see me!? Woooooow! Found one at last!

(RiCO appears)

That was sudden. Must've given you a fright! But please stay calm. I know the right person for the job when I see them!

You're sure to understand the whole introduction to the worldview, right? You didn't skip anything, right?

Huh? Who's talking...?

Eesh! It's one of those things that allow talking directly to the computer... You know!

Come, Player! Over this way. Quickly! Quickly!

(The player appears as X in the Highway)

Sorry, I should've introduced myself earlier. My name is RiCO. I'm the cyberspace's - the Deep Log's... er, well, you could call me the "admin". Now, Player, your name would be...? Oh, what a nice name! How should I put this? I mean, we only just asked you to register... But to us, you are one of those loyal gamers who's alllllllllllways played the game! You were just playing Mega Man X, right? And there was that time you begged your grandparents to buy a game for you at that game store, near where you live? And even though you were strictly limited to one hour of gaming a day on weekends... and you weren't supposed to play past 8pm, you still played, right? In addition to game data, all these memories are wrapped up nice and snug in the Deep Log. So then! For the sake of simplicity, please allow me to call you Player!

(Stage 1-1 starts)

There is no time to lose. First, could you please restore the data for this stage? The Hunter Program I can currently call up is called "X". Please use X to get rid of all the Irregular Data. Just getting rid of it, repairs it! That's right! It's that Mega Man X stage you were just challenging yourself to, Player! You must feel like your head is full of cotton, right? I'm going to show you how to work the controls. Let's give it a try and get started!


 * Move forward to specified location

(X moves until he spots a Ball De Voux Shot Type)

There's a Irregular Data! Press Weapon button to attack. That's right! A long press on the attack button lets you go into an automatic mode that uses all the ammo you have left!


 * Long press Weapon

(The weapon button appears. The player uses it to destroy the Irregular Data.)

Good job! You cleared out some Irregular Data! Did you see that? Just like that, you can auto target diagonal enemies! Heehee! In order to make the data repairs go faster, we keep doing research. That's how we created the cyberspace's unique system! So, let's continue! Oh, the path up ahead has collapsed... Jump over the gap!


 * Long press forward
 * Tap Jump

(The Jump button appeared, and is used to proceed.)

See? A normal jump wouldn't have gotten you to the other side. But please stay calm. You only need to tap the Jump button again while jumping to active double jump!


 * Long press forward
 * Tap Jump

(The player must double jump to proceed, and finds a Gun Volt after walking a bit.)

Some more Irregular Data has appeared! Ah! And it's shooting missiles! Quick, crouch to avoid the missile!


 * Hold down crouch

Dodged it! Let's move on to the next stage! Let's try that Charge Shot skill of X's that everyone has waited for!


 * Tap Skill

(The first skill button appears. When tapped, X starts charging energy.)

Lives up to its name, right? The Charge Shot skill adds energy! After you tap the skill button, the shot starts automatically charging up. The more you charge, the stronger the shot. Now tap the skill button again... The shot goes out with a "boom"!


 * Tap Skill

(X fires a Charge Shot and clears the Irregular Data.)

How do you like that? Even powerful Irregular Data gets wiped out in one shot! The skill's awesome power is truly... Sor - sorry. I've been talking too much. Let's pick up the pace a little! Press the dash button to get a burst of speed. Tap dash and slide to jump can be dash jump! Also, if you hold down the dash button, and drag your finger toward the Jump button, you can do a dash jump! That'll make your movement nimble and speedy!


 * Press dash and drag toward jump

(Dash button appears and the player continues a bit.)

While I'm at it, holding down the Jump button, then dragging your finger toward the Weapon button makes it easy to do a jump attack! Remember not to pick up your finger. Just do "dash → jump → attack" in order to make quick progress! Doing it that way makes controlling your Hunter Program that much easier!


 * Hold jump and drag toward weapon

(The player continues until a Bee Blader appears)

Wait ! Irregular data is coming! The Hunter Program has 2 standard skills. X's second skill is the Seeker Missile. It's not as powerful as the Charge Shot, but it can track targets, then explode for area damage!

(The second skill is now available. The player defeats the Bee Blader and the path collapses.)

Huh. The path is collapsing. But don't worry! See what happens when you hold down the right direction button while continuing to jump. Use Wall Kick to make your way up!


 * Long press forward
 * Tap Jump

(The player climbs out and continues, finding Maoh the Giant in the end of the path.)

It's that Irregular Data called Maoh the Giant! Hmm, that data shouldn't even be in this stage. There seems to be a data fault... Ah! Careful! Do you see that line on the ground? That shows the Irregular Data's attack range. See the boss' actions and warning line? It's planning to do a wide-ranging attack! Jump to dodge!

(The player jumps to avoid the attack)

Amazing! This Irregular Data must be what's causing the program faults... Attack right away! Restore the game data! That's right, you're in charge now!

(The player defeats Maoh the Giant)

Irregular Data repair complete. Good work! You really are a Player! You must have spent some time in other games' cyberspace! See, I really do know people! You might want to blaze through it just like that, but we should go back to the base for a little rest first. Later, we'll learn about the cyberspace Deep Log in a bit more depth! We'll get to know each other better later on!

(Stage clear. The player's level increases and the remaining game data is downloaded. After completing, the player is sent to the game's main screen.)

Good work on your first mission! This is the cyberspace where we manage Mega Man game data! We're going to get you ready for all sorts of missions at the base. You can dive to prepare for mission, strengthen the power or shop...etc. at here. First, in order to take care of all the Irregular Data that might show up later on... we need a fighting skill boost. Use Capsules to get new weapons!


 * Tap Capsule

(RiCO introduces the Capsule menu)

Capsules help read Mega Man's game data, and then instantiate it into equipment within the world. Activating a Capsule requires Element Metal for energy. But this one is already ready. So it doesn't take any Element Metal! Unfortunately, the settings aren't stable. So there's no way to specify which data is going to get instantiated. You can't choose, but the data will always be helpful! Please try activating one!


 * Tap Capsule
 * Tap Start

(The High-speed Rifle is obtained)

That... is all the data about weapons! Congrats! I just got intel on some new Irregular Data. Let's go there to give it a try!


 * Tap OK
 * Tap Back
 * Tap DiVE
 * Tap Story
 * Tap 1-2
 * Tap Execute

Before you DiVE, you can choose your weapon loadout. Let's try out that new weapon you just got!


 * Tap Main Weapon
 * Choose this weapon
 * Tap Execute

(The player enters stage 1-2)

You must be pretty familiar with the controls now, right? Right?!? When you're doing a quick combo of Dash → Jump or Jump → Attack with your next action, remember not to lift your fingertip up off the screen. Slide directly to the button for the next action! If you want to control your Hunter Program well, this is super important! If you go back to 1-1, I'll show you again how to work on the controls. If you need help, just ask! Practice is the best way to learn. Let's start a mission right away, Player!

(The player proceeds until a Deep Element is spotted)

...Weird! Hold on a sec. ...This area... there's something not right about it. Please go check it out!

(The player takes the Deep Element)

Oh, oh! It's an item that was hidden before! Well, that means there must have been items hidden in every stage! Keep an eye out for them, okay? If I discover any, I'll guide you to them. But they must be hidden in a lot of places we didn't notice before. We'll have to be eagle-eyed! That's right, you're in charge now!

(The player completes the stage and returns to the main menu)

Stage clear! You knew how to use the weapon on your first try! Awesome! But this weapon doesn't seem to be as powerful as we thought... Hmm, did some data somewhere not get reset to normal? Let's go check the weapon data.


 * Tap Equip
 * Tap Weapon
 * Choose this weapon

(Details of the selected weapon are shown in the menu)

The basic weapon information will display over here. The numbers aren't very high... Ah-hah! This weapon is only at Level 1. When the data was reset, it must have gotten reinitialized. But don't worry. In that last stage, you just got a little EXP Program. Using an EXP Program will upgrade a weapon's level. Give it a try!


 * Tap Level Up
 * Choose this item
 * Tap Level Up

Weapon level up! Your fighting skill keeps getting stronger like this. Go take on a new stage! And when you get other new weapons, don't forget to upgrade them too, okay?

(Back to the story mode)


 * Tap 1-3
 * Tap Execute
 * Tap Execute

(The player enters stage 1-3 and proceeds until a Bee Blader is defeated, falling down.)

Do you remember how to use Wall Kick!? You can clime walls with it, hold down the direction button while continuing to jump.


 * Long press forward
 * Tap Jump

(Stage 1-3 is cleared and the player proceeds to 1-4)


 * Tap 1-4
 * Tap Execute

You're used to using your Main Weapon now, right? That means it's time to learn how to use a Sub-Weapon. Using two weapons at once will make it easy to take on stages! So let's equip a different weapon as your Sub-weapon.


 * Tap Sub-weapon
 * Choose this weapon
 * Tap Execute

(In this stage the player is above a moving vehicle)

There's usually no stage like this in a Mega Man X game... Please be careful not to fall off. Defeat this Irregular Data! Oh, right! If you want to switch to a Sub-weapon you just equipped, just tap the Switch button over here!

(RiCO shows that a new button is available)

During combat, when you don't have enough ammo or you want to use a different weapon, you can always switch weapons. Make good use of it, whenever you need it!

(All Ireegular Data in the area is destroyed)

Mission complete! You've reached the goal! Good work! Now, wasn't that satisfying?

(Back to the main menu)

While getting rid of Irregular Data, we recovered some materials, and we couldn't figure out what they're for. It would be a waste to just let them sit... We can use the Lab to analyze these materials, then make new item data from them. This new item data should be helpful!


 * Tap Lab
 * Tap Items

This is the Lab! Choose what you'd like to research. After the research period has elapsed, you'll see the results. During research, this will take up one Research Slot. If you have more Research Slots, you can research more things at once. Let's unlock that first Research Slot and give it a try...


 * Tap Research Slot
 * Tap Purchase

In this Research Slot, we can start doing some research. What looks like a good thing to research? The recovered materials are just right to rebuild the Saber. Let's give it a try!


 * Tap Combine

Research requires waiting until the time period is elapsed. You can also use Element Metal to speed up the process. Since this is your first research project, it wouldn't be fair to make you wait. Let me lend a hand.


 * Tap Receive
 * Tap OK

Research complete! Saber is available for use! Hmm... The research resulted in a fragmented weapon data file. The data will need to be defragged before it's usable! Please come with me -


 * Tap Back
 * Tap Equip
 * Tap Weapon
 * Choose this weapon
 * Tap Unlock

Defrag complete! The weapon is ready to be used! When there are glitchs, the data we retrieve might not be complete. Sometimes it shows up in a memory format. But once you get enough memories, you can defrag them to create complete data!

(The player is now free to continue. If the player enter stage 1-5, RiCO will inform about the transparent floors)

Huh? There seems to be no path back... But please stay calm. Do you see over there, where the ground is transparent? Please try the Crouch you learned back in 1-1. Hold down the Jump button.


 * Hold down crouch
 * Tap Jump

Hehe, how is that? When the floor is thin like this, you can go right through! There'll be a lot of floors like this later on. So this is a trick worth learning!

(In the end of the stage)

Wait just a moment! There's a huge Irregular Data signature up ahead. Rest a moment. Success is 99% preparation, right?

(Starting stage 1-6)

...Exactly right! That huge Irregular Data is right ahead! Don't worry! You've got what it takes! Do your best!

(The player defeats Maoh the Giant)

You really are a Player! You've finished the Highway stage restoration work. Oh, right! Our restorations have only made progress thanks to you. And that's why I've been able to call up a new Hunter Program. Finishing different stages gives you different amounts of stars (☆), right? And that's why new calls become available. Basically, Hunter Programs are stored in the data, and then they're displayed as figures within the Deep Log. The Deep Log's world is getting affected by bugs. Because of that, Hunter Programs that don't show up in the game script are appearing. They can even talk! So? You're not the only one progressing! I can grow, too!

(Back to the main menu)

Everything is going well! Yay! Yay! You must have noticed that the Irregular Data is getting stronger and stronger... We need a fighting skill upgrade. Next we'll upgrade your Hunter Program's skill levels!


 * Tap Character
 * Choose this character
 * Tap Skill
 * Tap Level Up

Skill level up successful! Charge Shot now causes more damage. In addition to your Hunter Program's skills, you can also up some weapon skill levels!

RiCO's explanations
(After leveling up, RiCO may ask the player to return to the main menu to give an explanation.)

Level 9
You've cleared a lot of stages, so your Weapon Mastery has built up, too. You can use Weapon Proficiency to increase your weapon's status. Let's give it a try!


 * Tap Equip
 * Tap Weapon
 * Choose this weapon
 * Tap Upgrade

Choose one from Attack, Health, Critical, Accuracy or Luck to upgrade. This time, let's pick Health to upgrade. Without your health, you have nothing!


 * Choose HP
 * Tap Upgrade

Upgrade successful! The health provided by the weapon is better now. The higher the Upgrade level, the higher the Mastery it requires. Using Mastery Convert to get it from Mastery Memory Card! Even without "Proficient memory card", equip the weapon to play through stages to acquire proficiency! See the "MP" icon? The proficiency scales with the use count of the weapon! This means that you can acquire proficiency for the weapon by equipping and using it! To gain proficiency fast, the "Proficient memory card" is the most effective way! Should you upgrade evenly, or focus on one area to upgrade in? That's up to you to decide!

Level 11
While you were battling that Irregular Data, I found some X memories. You can upgrade your its Star Rank.


 * Tap Character
 * Choose this character
 * Tap Rank Up

When your character Levels Up, it unlocks new skills!


 * Tap Rank Up

Rank Up successful! X has gained the new skills.


 * Tap Skill

These two skill cards are upgrades for Charge Shot. Charge Accelerate makes charging take less; Power Up adds more power when the charging period is done. You can choose one of these upgrades. Let's take Power Up this time.


 * Choose this skill
 * Tap Equip

Skill card equipped! X's fighting skill has improved again! Oh! By the way, one Hunter Program can equip two skill cards at the same time. You can change it at "1"&"2"button, don't forget to equip it when you unlock second skill card slot.

Level 13
I have some good news for you! We've successfully analyzed the data from that boss you just defeated, and converted the data into Chips. How about that! Am I good? Please say that I'm good! Using Chips allows you to use some of a boss' skills during battle. Let's go set up your first Chip.


 * Tap Equip
 * Tap Chip
 * Choose this Chip
 * Tap Unlock

You've received the Chip for Maoh the Giant. Putting a Chip to use first requires equipping it on your weapon.


 * Tap Equip
 * Choose this weapon
 * Tap OK

Chip successfully equipped! When you use this weapon, you can use Maoh the Giant's special Spiked Ball Attack. Now it gains a button of Boss Skill in battle! Tap to switching on off it. When it's on, you can use Boss Skill while attacking! Because it equips on weapons, it will release with tap attack button. Boss Skill is pretty powerful, don't hesitate to use it. That will be very helpful! But be careful! Each Chip works with different weapons. The Maoh the Giant Chip can only be equipped on ranged weapons. There are more chips, and you can research them in Lab. Once the research is done, you'll get the new chips.

Level 15
You can do more and more! Worried that there's something I missed? It's time to talk about this Mission thing over here. Come check it out with me!


 * Tap Mission

These Daily Missions are the missions I hope you can finish every day. When you finish them, you get EXP, Element Metal and more valuable resources. Challenge yourself every day with these missions!

Level 16
We've successfully created the Battle Network. Here, you can battle other Players. Battle Network is ready finally! Let's give it a try now!


 * Tap Versus
 * Choose Battle Mode

There are lots of battle modes to choose from here. You can use this feature to battle other Players in real time, online. During battle, all Players skiils get adjusted to the same level. So, don't worry about level limitations here! But even weapons will be adjusted to the same level, player's star rank、 skill and character's skills won't be changed in battle. I'll explain the rules to you later! Most importantly is the fight skills yourself! But since you recoveried so much satges, I trust you can do it! That's right! You can do it! If you're not familiar with the Battle yet, try warming up with a 1-on-1 practice match. When you've leveled up, try activating the other battle modes.

Level 17
The Lab has added a new function! It can now research the DiVE Trigger skill.


 * Tap Lab
 * Tap Skills

The DiVE Trigger is very powerful, but it can only be used once per combat. All characters can use it. Electric Spark skill research complete! Let's go equip this skill.


 * Tap Equip
 * Tap Change Main Skill

DiVE Trigger equipped! Now it's ready to be used in combat. You are more powerful now! This skill is very powerful, but it can only be used once per combat. Please choose carefully when to use it. Next, let's upgrade skill levels.


 * Tap Level Up
 * Tap Level Up

Leveling up DiVE Trigger will give your power a permanent boost. Leveling up will unlock new DiVE Triggers. Keep on upgrading to get more skills!

Level 18
New stage mode Challenge Stage available! Let's go check it out.


 * Tap DiVE
 * Tap Challenge

This stage will bring you right to the boss. There's a limit on how many times you can try per day. After you defeat a boss, weapons and Chips might drop. Bosses here are stronger than before. Keep on challenging yourself!

Level 20
New Armor equipment type available! Equipping armor will raise your health and defense a lot. It's time to go try on your first suit of armor! How about that! Am I good? Just say it!

Every suit of armor has six different sections. Combine different Armor Components to create the armor. Try combining the Light Upper Body Component!


 * Choose this Armor
 * Tap Start
 * Tap Yes

Armor Combination complete! The combined status will be random. If you don't like the values, try combining again! Next, let's try equipping some Armor. Armors can be strengthened too, and the level will transfer to the new armor you change! So please don't worry about it.


 * Tap OK
 * Tap Back
 * Choose this Armor
 * Tap Equip

Armor is shared by all your characters. You can create six suits in total. No matter you use X or Axl, armors you equipping won't be changed. If you want to get new Armor or components for combining, go to the Co-op Stage.


 * Tap Back
 * Tap DiVE
 * Tap Co-op

The Co-op Stage is a real-time stage where you can form groups with other Players. You're thinking about "I've never seen it in Mega Man X before", am I right? The Co-op Stage is the main source of Armor. Come challenge yourself every day!

Level 22
New stage mode "Event" has unlocked!


 * Tap DiVE
 * Tap Event

The first event unlocked is "Resetting X Database", from here you may acquire the "Self-learning system" for enhancing DiVE Trigger. You performance in the stage determines your "Level Completion Grade (LCG)". With better LCG, you get more materials at completion! While there are limited challenge counts a day, the materials can greatly improve your power. Make sure you complete it every day! At higher player levels, more events will be available!

Level 25
The time has come...! Play "Ranked match" and fight the deep record player opponents! Get famous today!


 * Tap Arena
 * Select Ranked match

You acquire rank points from wins, and your "Hunter Tier" is promoted accordingly. In the original story, X was promoted rank by rank from B! At the end of the Season, the ranking reward is sent to all participating players. The reward given depends on the Hunter Tier at the end of Season! Let's put up our effort for the best result! Note that other players of equivalent or similar tiers are prioritized in opponent searching. Start with opponents of your performance level! Losing a match may cause your Hunter Tier to go down, you will be given rewards based on your best tier in the Season, feel free to test your limit!

Level 27
Good news! The base has added the "Armor Enhancement" feature, allowing you to improve your armor stats!


 * Tap Arena (sic, actually Equip)

 * S: You are just awesome...! You have become even stronger!
 * SS: That is so amazing...! Were you also active in the computer world of other games as well?

 * Currently being researched...!

Combine Armor:
 * Please select the armor you would like to combine!
 * It doesn't look very good...
 * Not bad results!
 * Does it seem like there's room for improvement...?

Gallery
(The player starts stage 2-1)

RiCO:

Where are we off to next? Ah, yes, the Gallery Stage from Mega Man X. Don't worry, I'll guide you. I won't get you lost! Get yourself ready and go!

(The player finds a Mole Borer in stage 2-2)

RiCO:

Ah! It's dangerous! Watch out! The attack from that medium-sized Irregular Data is super super super dangerous! It's going to take a lot of concentration! Get to the evacuation point on the right side as fast as possible!

(Near an opening in stage 2-3)

RiCO:

I'm getting a medium-size Irregular Data reading at the bottom of this cave! There's something strange going on... Be careful as you head into battle.

Mole Borer:

... ...WHAT ARE YOU...  ...YOU WANNA MESS WITH ME?

RiCO:

Ah! Was that Irregular Data talking just now? That might have been caused by a bug, too... What's going on around here?

(Mole Borer is defeated and Axl appears)

Axl:

Heheh, not bad, eh? I am Axl! Or, just the manifestation of Axl's game data within this world.

RiCO:

Axl! The Hunter Program is instantiated! It looks like the fault in the Deep Log is no ordinary error...

Axl:

Exactly! This is no ordinary error. Let's cut the chit-chat. It's not just game data. Even the Players' precious memories are being overwritten. Like the Irregular Data that showed up before! If this keeps going on, then even if you blow on the cartridge or turn over the console like you used to... or hit the reset button while holding down the power button, it won't help... I'm sure you understand how serious this is! Starting now, you can control me as a Hunter Program. Let's restore the world to how it was! Okay, then it's up to you, RiCO!

RiCO:

That's one more trusty colleague! Let's go back and load up Axl as a Hunter Program!

(Starting stage 2-4)

RiCO:

This is a mine cart stage! Please be careful not to fall off!

Axl:

Did you load up me as a Hunter Program? I can use some skills that X can't, so please execute me sometimes!

(The player reaches the end of stage 2-4)

RiCO:

Mission complete! How do you feel about the mine cart, it's not bad, right?

(Starting stage 2-6)

RiCO:

...something has appeared!... There's a huge Irregular Data signature up ahead... But I'm sure you can take it, Player!

(The player passes a shutter and faces Mega Scorpio)

Mega Scorpio:

... ...JUST LIKE YOU, WE HAVE LIVES, TOO... JUST AS YOU'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT ...COME NOW, A BATTLE TO THE DEATH...

RiCO:

...As you've always thought?? That medium-size Irregular Data just now, too... What are they talking about?... This Irregular Data is enormously powerful! Please be careful!

(Mega Scorpio appears to be defeated, but...)

RiCO:

Ah! Be careful!!

(Mega Scorpio rises and steps on the player.)

Mega Scorpio:

... ...SO FOOLISH! YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT ME?!

RiCO:

Ah! How can Mega Scorpio talk?... Seems like I've heard that before somewhere...

(Mega Scorpio is about to stab the player, but a shot destroys its arm.)

Mega Scorpio:

...WHO APPROACHES?...

(A blue Zero appears.)

Mega Scorpio:

...YOU! YOU'RE...

???:

Humph! You're going to meet your doom here. I'm going to repair this error!

Mega Scorpio:

How vile. We'll wait and see...

(The blue Zero destroy Mega Scorpio)

???:

Hey, you're okay, right?

RiCO:

Huhhhhhhh? Zero?! But the color seems different. Is it because of a program fault? Th-Thank you for saving me!

???:

Zero?! Haha! The pose might be that way, but I am not Zero! My personality is totally different to him, isn't it? I used to be the administrator of the Deep Log. But now my appearance in this world... ...is also some kind of program fault. When the fault occurred, I appeared as Zero. Hah! She must be RiCO, then! You've been relying on her guidance too much! Leave it to me! I'll lend a hand! We need to return this Deep Log world, the data, and all these memories to how they originally were! We need to do a full backup first... How about this? I'll give you some new weapon data. RiCO! After you get back, please help the Player to analyze it!

RiCO:

What?! Relying on me too much? Of all the nerve! But he did help, and gave you a new weapon, so that means we've added a new ally!

???:

Oh, right... I'm not actually the Hunter Program for Zero. So from here on, I'll only be able to help with guidance. As for the real Zero data, that'll depend on how you and RiCO grow... One day, you'll be able to call on it! You can do it!

Factory
(Starting stage 3-1)

???:

The next piece of data to restore is the Factory Stage from Mega Man X! Now you understand how to control a Hunter Program, right?

RiCO:

Huh! Wait a minute, I'm the one who's supposed to introduce the stage data! The stage design here is complicated, but you have to keep bravely going forward! Go!

(Stage 3-3)

RiCO:

There's a huge Irregular Data signature up ahead.

???:

Except for its face, the huge Irregular Data up ahead is immune to attack! Keep that in mind as you go into battle!

RiCO:

Oh, that was awesome! You understood it all perfectly.

???:

Well, I'm familiar with the Deep Log, too. Anyway, it's your turn, now!

(Gigantic Mechaniloid CF-0 appears)

Gigantic Mechaniloid CF-0:

... ...ATTACK... INTRUDERS MUST... INTRUDERS MUST BE DEFEATED...

???:

Gigantic Mechaniloid CF-0, I get it. But I didn't realize you'd show up here. Get going! Start the restoration!

(Gigantic Mechaniloid CF-0 is defeated)

RiCO:

Irregular Data repair complete. That was wonderful!

???:

You listened carefully to my suggestions and didn't jump off! Okay, time to go back to base.

(Starting stage 3-5)

RiCO:

Player, are you tired? It's only been due to your help that the data restoration has made any progress. But don't forget to get some R&R, too!

???:

Oh, what's up? RiCO, you've been a guide, too. You're so sweet!

RiCO:

Oh, come on! I've heard enough from you!

(Starting stage 3-6)

RiCO:

There's a signature up ahead. It's Irregular Data, more powerful than any I've seen before! Please be careful!

(After passing the shutter, Rangda Bangda W appears)

Rangda Bangda W:

... ...MISSION... MUST PROTECT... MUST ELIMINATE INTRUDER...

???:

This must be Rangda Bangda W. Its weakness is the spherical cores. The walls on both sides will close in... But don't worry! Due to a design error, they stop halfway and won't be able to close in any further!

RiCO:

Huh, so that's how it is. Seems like I'll be able to take advantage of that somehow! That'll be a huge help!

(Rangda Bangda W is defeated)

RiCO:

Irregular Data repair complete. Good work! Just like that, the Factory Stage restoration is finished, too. The Deep Log data restoration is going great! And it's all thanks to help from you, the Player! It just seems... So cool!

???:

Yeah, you've become very reliable! It's like you're a completely different person from when I needed to help you out. But you will become even stronger! With your strength... I know you can do it!

RiCO:

Yep, you got it! I have to say again, I know the right person for the job! Okay, back to base for a bit of R&R.

Air Force
(Starting stage 4-1)

???:

Here you are! The next stage is...

RiCO:

The next stage is "Air Force"! It's the Air Force in Mega Man X4! That was close. I'll do the navigation just fine!

???:

Hahaha! That's good, I'll leave it to you. I'm glad you're helping! Player!

RiCO:

This is an air fortress with air fleet and turrets! Make sure you stay on your toes! If you find the enemies overwhelming, return to the base for enhancement!

(Sub-boss in stage 4-3)

RiCO:

Hold on! Moderate irregular data spotted ahead! Be careful when you carry out a Mission.

(RT-55J appears)

RT-55J:

The player at the east is "RT-55J"! "RT-55J"! The time's...

???:

He is "RT-55J." He can freely extend its arms, so he's not easy to deal with. He was a Yokozuna-tier Rikishi, but he gets astounding leaping power! Never let your guard down!

(RT-55J is defeated)

RT-55J:

This is... quite unexpected! The decisive "blow" works out, the player wins...

RiCO:

That's a success! Good job, player!

???:

Even he became irregular data, he lived up the spirit of a Rikishi, he should have our respect.

RiCO:

Um... I just found some terms I've never heard of... Do you know much about sumo? Tell me if you know!

(Starting stage 4-6)

RiCO:

Excuse me... I'm coming to you at this moment... and I believe you know well what I'm going to say...

???:

Hey, RiCO! You should be doing your navigator duty!

RiCO:

Ahem... my apologies... Let's get back to the topic... large irregular data spotted ahead!

???:

Huh? She has been leading the player, and now she's playing riddles.

RiCO:

I say...! That's pretty rude! This is my way, RiCO's way!

(Chill Penguin appears)

RiCO:

That's the "Chill Penguin!" Even though I was prepared, but the 8 Major Bosses from Mega Man X have become irregular data!

???:

The locations, the opponents, everything is messed up! Looks like the data is a mess.

Chill Penguin:

Shut up! You interfere us with your very presence!

RiCO:

Hey...!? Did you hear what he just said? These irregular data can understand us...

???:

Haha! You actually pissed off this guy that's a pain in the butt! I know that you're tired of life at North Pole, but did you really have to come to a place where you didn't fit in at all??

Chill Penguin:

What a horrible guy! This player will be first, and I'm going to turn you into a hockey puck!

???:

You've been called out! Be careful, this Penguin isn't like the penguins in the beginning and isn't that easy to take down!

(Chill Penguin is defeated)

RiCO:

The repairs of the irregular data has been completed. Great job! Ohh... its' quite cold, let's return to the base!

Sky
(Starting stage 5-1)

RiCO:

This is the "Sky" stage of "Mega Man X"! Have you enhanced your weapons and armor for the battle?? The correction stages are becoming more and more difficult. If you have any questions about the basic operation of the Hunter program, find me at 1-1!

(Stage 5-6)
