Translate the Dark Robottle mini-game #54

Medarot 4 has a Dark Robottle (Robattle) mini-game that resembles Battleship (ダークロバトル). Apparently it can only be played after completing the main story.

If selected from the debug menu (state 31), it is the 25th option. A numeric value can be selected from here, from 00 to 1D. There are three difficulty settings according to this guide, so it is unclear why there are more than 3 possible values, although I did notice different opponents depending on the value.

The game state for this is 42.

Below is the initial screen for this mini-game. The opponent can differ, but the background still is the same. Both the banner and background have Japanese graphics.

The guide mentioned above says you need 3 Medabots, but I was able to play this with just 1. You have to pick your Medabots' starting positions, and you can attack with either a head or arm parts, and select your destination on the other side. Also, if you select the leg part, you can move from one spot to another. On the attacking screen, you can press B to view your Medabots' HP stat, and then press A to see some more info (not sure what it is).

Here are various screens for this mini-game. Some of the text might be normal dialogue text. bgb00711 bgb00714 bgb00715 bgb00716
