Evil Chip (Battle Chip)

For the original series chip, see Evil Chip (Wily Chip).

Evil Chips (あんこくチップ, Ankoku Chippu, lit. "Darkness Chip"), and the similar Dark Chips (やみのチップ, Yami no Chippu, "Chip of Darkness", not to be confused with Dark Chips), are Battle Chips in the Mega Man Battle Network series that can only be used under dark conditions.

Mega Man Battle Network 3

Dark Chips are Giga Chips that require a Dark Hole panel open on the field or the DarkLicense NaviCust Program equipped. A Dark Hole can be summoned with the Hole Battle Chip or the DarkMan chip series.

Mega Man Battle Network 4

Evil Chips can only be used by MegaMan.EXE when his spirit has been significantly put under control of his Dark Soul. To open the entrance to Black Earth, the player must have the following 5 Evil Chips: Muramasa, Anubis, ElemDark, BlakWing, and BugCharg/BugCurse.

These chips do not turn a NetNavi evil in themselves, but like the DS versions of Navi Chips they can only be used by Dark Navis.

All Evil Chips are present in Rockman.EXE 4.5 Real Operation, but they are no longer considered Evil Chips, the user being free to use them without these requirements. Although some were made than their original BN4 chips.

DS Navi Chips

MegaMan will receive that Navi's DS Chip when a DS Navi is defeated, when achieving the specific busting level against an SP Navi), or when MegaMan is Dark. The conditions to use DS Chips are the same as Evil Chips. Instead of using the records to fulfill its maximum attack power like SP Chips, the DS Chips require in-battle conditions to complete. The maximum power of the chips are equal to the maximum power of their SP Chip counterpart.

In Mega Man Battle Network 4, the power of these DS Navi chips also depends on the total number of open Dark Holes on the field on either player's side. Depending on the Navi Chip, this is a bonus of either +5 or +10 ATK for each Dark Hole on the field, with the bonus capping at 10 Dark Holes.

In Mega Man Battle Network 5, the power of these chips is instead increased by how many times MegaMan flinches in battle. This also means if he has Super Armor, the damage will have a harder time going up.
