Search Soul



MegaMan.EXE performs Double Soul with SearchMan.EXE. In MegaMan Battle Network 4, an invisibility-elemental Battle Chip is required to be sacrificed, while in MegaMan Battle Network 5, a cursor chip (such as CircleGun) is required.

Abilities

 * Lock-on: In both games, the moment MegaMan unites with this Double Soul, it immediately locks onto the nearest enemy or boss if they've just taken a hit and flinched, leaving them open to damage again.
 * Shuffle: The Search Soul can allow the player to shuffle his current unselected Battle Chips (not including Regular chip) up to 3 times, which can be useful to use a Program Advance.
 * Removes Invis and underground enemies.
 * Charge Shot: Scope Gun (a 5-shot gun that locks on to the nearest panel the enemy is on. Enemies underground and invisible enemies are affected by the gun. In MMBN4, it hits for 10 damage per hit, and in MMBN5, it starts at 12 damage per hit and gains a 2 damage power boost for any additional levels to the Buster Power)
 * Weakness: The Scope Gun can miss if the enemy is very fast, and MegaMan is immobile while the Scope Gun is in effect, allowing the enemy to counterattack.

Search Chaos
By sacrificing the Darkchip DarkCircle, MegaMan performs a Chaos Unison with Search Soul. His Charge Shot becomes a DarkCircle attack, which locks on to 7 panels and deals 300 damage to each. A useful combo is to area steal until there is 1 column left and use DarkCircle. The cursors will overlap, resulting in multiple shots to a panel as many as three times. DarkCircle can pulverize even the strongest viruses (aside from guard-protected ones) in no more than two hits, and when used with perfect skill, waste a boss in seconds flat

MegaMan NT Warrior Axess
While investigating stolen data, SearchMan and MegaMan confront DesertMan.EXE who is using invisible Mettaur (Battle Network series)s to steal them. In the ensuing battle, SearchMan refuses to sacrifice MegaMan and they are nearly defeated. But SearchMan gives MegaMan Search Soul and DesertMan is defeated.
