"Mutations have occurred since life began.

It wasinevitable that eventually mutations would result inbeings with extraordinary abilities.

These are themutants: men and women whose actual genetic structureendows them with super-human powers.

A mutant namedCharles Xavier has formed a team of these mutants calledthe X-Men.

X-Men Mutant Academy Professor Charles Xavier has made it his life's work totrain the X-Men to use their powers for good.

But still,some of those born with an ordinary genome hate and fearthe X-Men. These unusual warriors learn to protect thosethat reject them.

In the X-Men: Mutant Academy, each and every mutant mustprove his or her worth in battle against the others. Theymust learn to harness their rage and utilize theirindividual special powers."

The three yellow bars under your character's health meter arethe Counter meters. Each time you counter a move will depleteone of the three bars, so you can only counter up to 3 timesper match.

1.4 - CHOOSING COSTUMES

SQUARE Button : Movie Costume

X Button : Comic Costume

O Button : 3rd Costume (HIDDEN)

Each character in X-Men: Mutant Academy has an alternate outfit thatis their appearance from the Summer 2000 X-Men motion picture.Despite the fact that Gambit and Beast are not in the movie, theyhave been given custom-designed "movie-style costumes" usedexclusively in this game.

To choose a character's Movie outfit,simply choose the character using the SQUARE button at the SelectScreen. A third outfit, once they are unlocked (see the Codes andSecrets section), can be chosen using the O button.

1.5 - SUPER MOVES

1.5.1 - Basics of the Super Move System

Each character in the game has unique Super Moves that correspondto each of the three bars (as illustrated above) at the bottom of thescreen. Whenever you connect with any attack, as long as it's notblocked, power will be added to one of the three bars.

From left to right (for Player 1) or right to left (for Player 2),the bars represent the following:

Super Move

Denoted with "[S]" in this FAQ's move lists. The Super Move canbe done as soon as the outer bar is full (an "S" will appear onthe bar to indicate this.)

Stringed Super Move

Denoted with "[M]" in this FAQ's move lists. The Stringed SuperMove can be done as soon as the middle bar is full (an arrowwill appear on the bar to indicate this.)

NOTE: Once you have performed the motion for a Stringed SuperMove, yellow arrows will appear above your bars during thebrief pause.

Press the directional pad in the directions asindicated by these arrows to multiply the strength of yourStringed Super Move.

X-Treme Super Move

Denoted with "[X]" in this FAQ's move lists. The X-Treme SuperMoves, unlike the other two, cannot be done yet when the innerbar is initially filled.

Instead, two small arrows (or half-X's)will appear at the outer edges of the bar, and you must tap theX button rapidly in order to bring them together and form an "X"at the center. Once this is done, you're allowed a limitedperiod of time in which you can perform your X-Treme Super Move.

If you use any of the above, it will deplete the corresponding barwhether it hits the opponent or not. So use them wisely.

1.5.2 - Advanced Technique: Managing Your Super Meters

At any time during a fight, you can actually transfer the power fromone bar to another. For this purpose, the Square, Triangle, and Obuttons will each represent one of the three bars:

SQUARE Button:

The bar farthest to your left. If you're Player 1,this would be your Super Move bar. Or if you'rePlayer 2, this would be the X-Treme Super Move bar.

TRIANGLE Button:

The bar at the middle. This is the Stringed SuperMove bar whether you're Player 1 or 2 since it'salways in the middle.

O Button:

The bar farthest to your right. This would bePlayer 1's X-Treme Super Move bar or Player 2'sSuper Move bar.

To perform the transfer, hold either Left or Right on the directionalpad, then press and hold the button corresponding to the bar you wantto transfer FROM, followed by the button corresponding to the bar youwant to transfer TO.

For example, if you're Player 1, and would like to transfer the powerfrom your Stringed Super (middle) meter to your X-Treme Super meter(farthest to your right), simply hold Left/Right, then press and holdthe TRIANGLE button followed by the O button.

This technique isactually much simpler than it may seem, and it really comes in handyto gain more victories.
