Custom Robo Arena

Custom Robo Arena, known in Japan as Gekitō Custom Robo (激闘!カスタムロボ, Gekitō! Kasutamu Robo; "Custom Robo Rumble!"), is an action role-playing game released for the Nintendo DS. It is the fifth game in Custom Robo series. The game was released October 2006 in Japan.

Custom Robo Arena is the only game in the Custom Robo series that received a global release, which released in North America, Europe, and Australia in 2007. It is the only game released for the Nintendo DS to feature a two-player mode with the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection including voice chat, Multi-Card play, and DS Download Play. Custom Robo Arena uses a "Rivals" list.

The game starts with the story about a player-named male character whose father has just moved into the town of Midheart to work at NeoBrain, a robo research company. Upon arrival, the protagonist meets robo-battlers Liv and Dennis, and joins them.

Liv's interest in the robo-enhancing Soulboost will take the protagonist's team to Mt. Zephyr, where Stark will turn the protagonist away at the top. The protagonist then goes on police duty with police cadet Duncan. After an ambush with a rogue commander and a criminal, Dennis and Duncan become too weak to fight, and the protagonist is their last hope. Later, after the protagonist has defeated the criminal, the protagonist's team will return to Mt. Zephyr, having been given a note from Kris. Because of this, Stark will teach the protagonist the Soulboost.

Later, a tournament at the robocenter will allow the protagonist to compete in the Robo Cup shortly after. The protagonist's team boards a ship headed for Encephalon Isle, where the Robo Cup is to take place. The President of NeoBrain makes a statement that the preliminaries will take place on the way. This raises questions by contestants about what happens to the losers.

They arrive at Encephalon Isle. The night before the tournament, however, Liv exhibits strange behavior, walking to the nearby laboratory by herself. She quickly snaps out of it, but she is entirely confused as to how she got out there on her own. The protagonist takes her back to the hotel.

The next day's tournament starts well, with various battles taking place according to the plan. The security Robos placed around the forest go haywire. Liv and the protagonist's father go missing half-way in as the security Robos take out commanders in the tournament. A NeoBrain employee reveals himself as Scythe, leader of the Greybaum Syndicate, an international terrorist organization that intends to use Robo technology to control the world.

Upon infiltrating the nearby Research Facility, it is learned that the President ultimately regrets his decision, and he helps the protagonist. The protagonist's father is also recovered. With Dennis, the two search for Liv in the underground fortress. The protagonist reunites with Liv's brother Eddy, though Eddy is soon injured by Scythe's Katana after gloating over his victory with an autonomous decoy.
