In this action-adventure game, players assume the role of a young Medafighter who must battle tough opponents and solve local mysteries to protect the world's
future. The core gameplay involves building and customizing powerful Medabots by collecting and combining rare Medals with various structural parts. Success requires strategic planning during Robattles and extensive exploration to uncover the sources of strange disturbances.
Introduction to Medawatch
Your Medawatch is more than a way to communicate with your Medabot. It is also a valuable database containing a vast array of data on your Medals, Medaparts, and game progress. Understanding how your Medawatch works and how to program it for Robattles can help you advance quickly in the game. The tips and information on these pages will get you started.
Medabot Roles
Medabot Robattle teams feature leaders and partners. Medabots in both roles fight equally hard, but if your leader ceases to function, you'll lose the Robattle-no matter how many partners remain standing!
It is important to assign Medabots according to their roles. If you change a Medabot from a leader to a partner, verify that its Medaparts will support your team. Saving Your Game
The fastest way to win is to save your progress after every Robattle or major event. It can save you hours of work-er, play!
When prompted with "Do you want to save your game?", select Yes to confirm. The save screen displays your current Medal, Medabot, game time, and currency.

You won't get far in the game without winning Robattles. The next few pages will take you through the key elements you need to know to emerge victorious.

Match Mechanics
A Character Selected: Each character on your team has a turn during a match. You'll see their Medal name and Medafroce (MF) rating in the lower left corner of the screen.
Charge Medafroce: Medabots accumulate some Medafroce (MF) whenever they receive damage. You can collect larger amounts of Medafroce by ordering your Medabot to charge MF.
Move Selected: Medabots attack with assigned Medaparts when they reach the center of the screen. If they lose the Medapart, the attack is automatically recorded as a "miss." Stores and Inventory
The limited inventory at the local store doesn't offer the best Medaparts for matching specific Medals, but don't rely on finding all of your parts by winning Robattles. It's important to revisit this store and others in the game to check to see if you can find the last Medapart to complete your ultimate Medabot collection. Trading and Linking
The Medabots Rokusho version and Medabots Metabee version have specific Medaparts you won't find in the other game. The only way to acquire all Medaparts is to link up and trade using a Game Boy® Advance Game Link® Cable. To trade or Robattle, visit the woman in the back of a store and link up with another Medafighter. Robattles against a Medafighter are similar to computer matches, but if you lose, you'll hand over one of your hard-earned Medaparts.
