Jasmine and Meddy (Medi.EXE in Japan) are two fictional characters from [[MegaMan Battle Network 5|MegaMan Battle Network 5: Team Protoman]]. The former is the Operator and the latter is the [[NetNavi]]. The two have also appeared in the [[Megaman NT Warrior|Megaman anime]], during the ''Stream'' season, which has currently aired in Japan only.

==Profile==
===Jasmine===
Jasmine is a student of medicine both modern and traditional, searching for a cure for her grandfather's illness. She is a bit of a hothead, but she'll brave any danger for her family. Jasmine tries very hard to deduce the identities of Team ProtoMan's members, but as a result is partly responsible for ProtoMan's disappearance. She tries against Lan's wishes with Meddy to save him. Jasmine's home country is Choina.

===Meddy===
Meddy is Jasmine's NetNavi. Her cute demeanor and gentle heart shines alongside her operator. These two medics in training go out of their way to help those in need. Meddy has adapted her knowledge of curing biological viruses to techniques for virus busting. Meddy has also developed the ability to restore corrupted Navi data.

==Video game==
{{spoilers}}
Jasmine and Meddy first appeared in [[MegaMan Battle Network 5|MegaMan Battle Network 5: Team Protoman]]. After Liberation Mission #5, Jasmine meets [[Lan Hikari|Lan]] and explains she's looking for something in the Undernet that will help her sick grandfather. Jasmine tries to get some information from Lan, but he refuses to say anything. Later on, MegaMan catches Meddy trying to enter the Undernet. Before she enters, the newly revived [[NetNavi#Battle Network 5|CloudMan]] ambushes her. Just as he was about to attack, [[ProtoMan.EXE|ProtoMan]] steps in and protects Meddy, but pays for with it with his life (or so everyone thinks).

Jasmine feels it was her fault that ProtoMan was deleted and asks Lan if she could join the team, but he declines. She decides to get revenge for ProtoMan's demise and sends Meddy into the Undernet against Lan’s request. Eventually MegaMan confronts Meddy and defeats her. Afterwards, the other Team ProtoMan navis persuade Lan to let Jasmine join. He does so and Meddy opens a nearby door to Liberation Mission #6, where the team discovers that ProtoMan wasn’t deleted after all, but turned into a Darkloid.

Later on, when MegaMan heads to UnderNet4 to shut down the transmitter, Dark ProtoMan appears and knocks out MegaMan. Before the final blow, Meddy shows up and uses her Healing Pulse to rid ProtoMan of his dark powers, and with some help from MegaMan and [[Colonel.EXE|Colonel]] succeeds.

Eventually, MegaMan, Meddy, and ProtoMan infiltrate FactoryComp4 at Nebula’s Hideout and the trio work their way through the Comp. But as MegaMan prepares to fight the revived [[NetNavi#Battle Network 5|CosmoMan]], a vortex appears and both Meddy and ProtoMan are sucked into the Dark Galaxy. Angered by the loss, MegaMan fights and deletes CosmoMan a second time. When MegaMan proceeds to fight Nebula Gray, Meddy and the other Team ProtoMan Navis reappear from the Dark Galaxy and help MegaMan advance. At the end of the game, Jasmine returns to her home country.

Meddy's biggest strength in battle are the effects of her Meddy Capsules, which yields different status ailments, including blind. However, her weakness is a lack of close-range attacks, making her extremely vunderable to Battlechips like ''TimeBom'' and ''BoyBomb''; combined with ''AreaGrab'', she is almost defenseless. Many players consider Meddy to be one of the easier bosses in the game, as well as one of the more harder characters to control, the player generally has to relay on their battlechips to win liberation battles with her.

===Attacks===
Meddy has three attacks she uses against Megaman. They are as followed:
*Meddy Capsule - Two pills are lobbed onto Megaman's side of the field and explode seconds later. The direction the explosion covers depends on the way the pill is facing when it lands. Each pill color has a different effect (see Meddy Soul).
*Chemical Flash - Two sphere-shaped capsules appear on Megaman's side and slowly move towards each other. When they make contact, Megaman's side is covered in the explosion. The blue capsule has 25HP and can be deleted.
*Healing Pulse - A slow moving ball homes in on Megaman. If hit, his HP is drained and transferred to Meddy. Fourtunetly, it's only used when Meddy's HP is low and it is easy to avoid.

===Liberation ability===
Meddy's special ability in liberation missions is called ''Twin Liberation''. She and another Navi (usually [[GyroMan]] because of his ability to travel over dark panels) attempt to liberate up to 6 panels forward between each other. The move is very useful, but does have its risks; if Meddy fails, so does the liberation, but if the other Navi fails, another one can take its place as long as they can reach the other panel. Meddy is also the only Navi besides ProtoMan that can save the game during a Liberation Mission.

===Meddy Soul===
<!-- Unsourced image removed: [[Image:Meddy Soul.JPG|thumb|200px|Meddy Soul Megaman]] -->
MegaMan receives the Meddy Soul after Liberation Mission #6. To activate this form, a Healing Chip must be sacrifice. While active, MegaMan is able to add effects to chips using different-colored pills that show up below your normal chip selection. The colors and effects of each pill are as follows:
*Black: Blind
*Pink: Recover HP when you use your chip
*Purple: HP Bug (drain HP of enemy, only works in NetBattles with other people)
*Yellow: Confusion
*White: Paralysis

===Meddy Chaos===
If Megaman sacrifices the DrkRecov Chip instead, he activates Meddy Chaos. This ability lets the Charge Shot recover 1000 HP to Megaman (the same effect as the DrkRecov Chip, but without the side effects, so long as the charge is not released when it is green).

==Anime==
===First Appearance===
<!-- Unsourced image removed: [[Image:Jasmine Meddy Anime.jpg|thumb|200px|Jasmine and Meddy in the Anime]] -->
Both Jasmine and Meddy first appeared in episode 13 of ''Megaman Stream''. Jasmine arrives from her home country to search for a certain medicinal herb at the request of her instructor. Unfortunately, the president of a medicine manufacturing company has come to follow Jasmine to try to obtain the [[nostrum]]. Jasmine is kidnapped and her captors threaten to delete Meddy without mercy if Jasmine doesn't cooperate. [[Lan Hikari|Lan]] must track her down and sneak into the medicine company's research lab to save Jasmine. In the end, Lan manages to save her, and [[MegaMan.EXE|MegaMan]] rescues Meddy from deletion.
