GridMan.EXE

GridMan.EXE, known as FootMan.EXE (フットマン) in Japan, is a football based NetNavi owned by Mr. Famous in MegaMan battle Network 5. He wears a football uniform and his attacks are football themed. He makes several cameo appearances in the animated canon but plays only a minor role.

MegaMan Battle Network 5
GridMan is Mr. Famous's fourth and final NetNavi and can be found and fought on Oran Island. During the events of the fifth game, Mr. Famous reveals he has designed a new NetNavi partner and is in the midst of testing him - his battles with Lan and MegaMan.EXE provide him with data that he uses to make improvements to GridMan's design. Defeating him will give Lan and MegaMan.EXE the GridMan Battle Chip.

Abilities

 * GridMan starts the battle by summoning a pair of clones, forming a small GridMan team. These clones are distinctly coloured and can be destroyed, but GridMan will soon summon more.
 * Super Armour: GridMan and his clones cannot flinch.
 * Bound Throw: GridMan throws a football that will bounce about the player's area, targetting the player's current row.
 * Grid Tackle: GridMan and his clones can charge toward the player when he lines up with them.
 * Foot Mega Ball: GridMan kicks his football into the air. A 2x2 area will flash, and the ball will impact that area.
 * Death Touchdown: A goal post is set up. GridMan then charges towards that row, zigzagging along the way. If he reaches the goal post, the entire area will explode, damaging the player. He can be thwarted be being dealt enough damage to stop him.

Rockman.EXE: The Program of Light and Dark
Altough not specifically stated in the movie itself, FootMan.EXE appears as Rockman's opponent in the opening credits of the movie, which occurs during a tournament battle being held at a theme park Netto, Rockman, and their friends are attending. FootMan is Operated by another character who is also unnamed, although the character is recognizable as Meijin's apprentice, who appeared in Battle Network RockMan.EXE 3: White.

It is unknown when or how these two met, although their pairing was likely chosen as a cameo for comedic effect.

Rockman EXE Beast
FootMan doesn't make an official appearance but several NetNavis that use his model are playing football in a football stadium. They are captured by Zoanoroid PharaohMan.EXE and are placed inside sarcophagus's to be converted to Zoanoroids. Later, while most of the FootMen are destroyed, one appears in the real world, only to be dealt with by Manabe.

Battle Chip
GridMan performs the Death Touchdown which makes GridMan charge diagonally for two goalposts at the end of the battle field. If he touches down without hitting an enemy, the field explodes, dealing damage to all the enemies.
