Category:Mega Man
Notice that in the early titles the North American art is very different from the original Japanese, but the European box art depicts a Mega Man that is closer to the original.

The following games have no box artwork:
 * Mega Man: The Power Battle (arcade only)
 * Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters (arcade only)
 * Mega Man 9 (released online only)
 * Mega Man 10 (released online only)
 * Street Fighter X Mega Man (released online only)

=== Street Fighter X Mega Man === All this has still to be verified.


 * Unlocking Akuma and Sagat

To unlock Akuma try:
 * 4 or less perfect victories in the first 8 fighters, but NOT Boxer or Claw
 * 3 or less perfect victories in the first 8 fighters, PLUS Boxer (or Claw)

To unlock Sagat try:
 * 4 or less perfect victories in the Teleport System, but NOT Boxer or Claw
 * 3 or less perfect victories in the Teleport System, PLUS Boxer (or Claw)


 * Important Password:

4 victories (Blanka, Rose, Rolento, Urien), 3 perfect ones, 4 E-Tanks

This password allows to easily unlock Akuma, if you get one further perfect victory (e.g. against Dhalsim or the Boxer?); furthermore, it allows to maximize the number of E-Tanks, because the four stages containing E-Tanks are still to be cleared.

The password was obtained by collecting the 4 E-Tanks without beating those four stages.

Forest Whip: 1 dmg: Hockey Man, Volcano Man, Rolling Man, Lightning Man.

Scientific classification of Pokémon
From a taxonomical point of view, there are 76 Pokémon species, instead of 151.

What the Western translations of the videogames call "evolution" is actually growth from young to adult. Also, what is called "species" in the videogames is actually a life stage, e.g. young, cocoon or adult.

Of all the Pokémon species, the vast majority is inspired to real animals existing in nature, and they can be classified according to Lynnaeus method. Note that Lynnaeus lived one century before Darwin and the formulation of the scientific theory of evolution (Note also that "scientific theory" means "set of correlated theorems").


 *  Scientific Pokédex 

NOTE: Strictly speaking, "Invertebrata" is not an animal phylum, but a term of convenience including all phyla except for chordata. Here, it is used to group all the few animal pokémons that are neither Chordates/Vertebrates nor Arthropodes.
