Mega Man X5 Secrets:

X’s Ultimate Armor: Highlight X at the
character selection screen, then press Up(2), Down(9). A sound
will confirm correct code entry. Then, press Circle. This will give you the Ultimate Armor, just
like in X4. Alternatively, go to the
third Final Zone level, and when you see a moving platform that doesn’t
actually move over a short put, slide down the right side with X (no armor).
Zero’s Black Armor: Highlight Zero at
the character selection screen, then press Down(2), Up(9). A
sound will confirm correct code entry. Then, press Circle. The Black
Armor reduces damage, reportedly in half.
Alternatively, go to the third Final Zone level, and when you see a
moving platform that doesn’t actually move over a short put, slide down the
right side with Zero.
