I.Introduction
*******************************************************************************
What will not be contained in this guide is basic information on how to play
the game, such as controls and menu options, information that can be easily
found within the game, and an outline of the storyline. I will assume that you
know the basic elements of this game. If you don't, you can go to the Onett
Library, talk to the mole creature found in the early towns in the game, or
check out the info of each PSI move contained in the "status" menu. I will also
not include basic statistical information on enemies or on PSI abilities, such
as Hit Points or PP costs; such info can be found at other websites or within
the game itself.
Hopefully this guide will help you figure out what to do when you are stuck, or
when you are having difficulty getting past a certain part of the game.

III.General Information and Strategies
*******************************************************************************
1.Party Members
a)Ness
The main character of the game is also arguably the strongest party
member. His Offense and Guts are especially high, making his "bash"
attack effective even in boss battles. His Vitality is also very good,
making him the most likely to stay alive in battles against strong
enemies. His Speed is rather low, however, and he usually attacks last
or second to the last among the party members.
In terms of PSI, I recommend you conserve his PP for recovery and status
affecting PSI moves. Ness's high Vitality makes him a reliable healer,
and he will often be the one to save the other party members in tough
battles. Only use his attack PSI when you really have to, or else you
may not have enough PP when you need to recover. His attack PSI
shouldn't be necessary for most parts of the game, and I suggest you
rely on Ness's "bash" attack instead when fighting.
Give Ness all your Guts Capsules to increase the likelihood of getting
SMAAAASH!! hits, and use Sudden Guts Pills on him when you need an extra
power boost in longer fights. Be sure to equip the Night Pendant on him
as well if you obtain it; given the effectiveness of Ness's "bash"
attack, it will significantly hinder your party if he starts
uncontrollably crying. Furthermore, you do not want him to be instantly
defeated, as he has the best chance of reviving or healing the other
party members.
b)Paula
Paula is the main PSI attacker in your party, and unlike Ness her stats
are not very balanced. Her Offense, Defense, and Vitality are all low,
making her more vulnerable in battle and limiting the effectiveness of
her "bash" attack. Therefore, I recommend you equip Paula with your best
defensive items, which will boost her Defense to the highest in your
party and offset her low HP count. This will make it much easier for you
to keep Paula alive and allow you to utilize her strengths against
powerful enemies.
Paula's strong points are her Speed and IQ. Her high PP count is
crucial, and you should not be afraid to use her PSI attacks often in
the game. Her PSI Freeze can be a great alternative to her "bash"
attack, and by recovering her PP with PSI Magnet you can have Puala use
her PSI attacks for as long as you need in most situations. Paula's high
Speed is also very useful, and she will often attack first in most
battles.
Use all of your Vital Capsules on Paula, as she will need the HP boost.
I suggest you give her IQ Capsules and Speed Capsules as well, since she
relies heavily on PSI attacks and it will be helpful if she goes first
in battle when you need a PSI Shield. She should also be equipped with
pendants that provide resistance to Fire and/or Freeze attacks for most
parts of the game. Give her the Franklin Badge as well. Take these
protective measures and you should have practically no problems keeping
Paula alive.
Paula's special ability is the "pray" command. Only use this ability
in desperate situations and as a last resort. The resulting effect is
random, and can potentially harm your party and only minimally harm
your enemies. The different prayer effects are as follows:
Subtle light: Recovers 6% of max HP for all party members. This seems
to occur the most often.
Heaven rending sound: Makes all party members and enemies feel
strange--success rate is high.
Heavy air: Slightly decreases the Defense of all party members and
enemies for the duration of the battle.
c)Jeff
Jeff's role in the party is a bit hard to define. He can be the party's
main attacker and heavy hitter, or assist the party by debilitating
enemies with status effects. His Offense stat is naturally low, but his
gun weapons can boost his Offense to the second highest or sometimes
even the highest in the party. For this reason, you should always place
any broken items you find in Jeff's inventory to ensure you obtain his
optimum weapon as soon as possible. The damage inflicted by Jeff's
"shoot" attack is not reduced by shields and it is more accurate than
the other party member's "bash" attacks, though it cannot get any
SMAAAASH!! hits.
In boss battles, his Big Bottle Rockets and Multi Bottle Rockets will
usually take the place of his "shoot" attack, as they can often inflict
huge amounts of damage and will make tough boss battles much easier. His
other tools also provide assistance in certain situations, and I will
discuss strategies on how to use them in the section "4.Jeff's Items."
Because there is no guarantee that Jeff will repair an item even if his
IQ meets or exceeds the requirement, always go to a place where the
party can rest for free when trying to get Jeff to repair an item; you
do not want to waste money repeatedly staying at a hotel. Many repaired
or broken items cannot be thrown away, so give any unneeded items to
Escargo Express.
d)Poo
Poo's stats are pretty low in the beginning, though they have naturally
high growth rates. His Speed will likely end up being the highest or the
second highest in the party, and his Vitality is usually second only to
that of Ness. His IQ is on the low side, however, and his max PP
sometimes feels low, but this can be offset with prudent use of PSI and
taking advantage of his PSI Magnet. Poo's Offense has a high growth
rate, and it can end up exceeding Jeff's Offense if you level up
enough, but his Offense can be lower than Paula's for most parts of the
game. For that reason, give any offensive items not exclusive to Jeff
to Poo.
Do not equip Poo with the same weapons and armor the other party members
use; they will actually decrease Poo's stats. There are only four items
Poo should equip: the Sword of Kings, the Cloak of Kings, the Bracer of
Kings, and the Diadem of Kings. Only the Sword of Kings can be difficult
to get; the others are found in gift boxes.
Do not give Poo most food items, since they will only recover about 6
HP. All medicinal items, such as the Cup of Lifenoodles, and PP recovery
items work on Poo, and only a few food items, such as the Brain Food
Lunch and the Bottle of Water, work better for him than for the other
party members. Here is a list of food items that are more effective for
Poo:
This section explains what each status attribute in the game means and how
they affect a character's fighting abilities.
a)Offense
b)Defense
c)Speed
Characters with higher Speed also seem to dodge enemy attacks more often
and are more resistant to Bottle Rockets. Bottle Rockets seem to inflict
less damage or not work at all on faster targets.
d)Guts
e)Vitality
Determines the amount by which a character's max HP value increases at
each level up. If Vitality does not increase when a character levels up,
he/she's max HP will increase only slightly or not at all. When Vitality
does increase, the character's max HP will increase significantly. The
relationship between Vitality increase and max HP increase is as
follows:
The above values may vary and are estimated. Generally speaking, max HP
is about 15 times the Vitality value (e.g. if Ness has 10 vitality, he
would have about 150 max HP).
f)IQ
The above values may vary and are estimated. Generally speaking, max PP
is about 5 times the IQ value (an exception to this rule is for Ness
near the end of the game, during which his max PP is about 10 times his
IQ).
g)Luck
I'm not exactly sure what this does. I think Luck determines the chance
an enemy's attack will miss hitting a character. Apparently, it also
determines the effect eating a Lucky Sandwich will have on a party
member, though I do not know how this works.
3.Status Effects
This section gives information on the different status effects that may
hinder your party and how to deal with each. The strategies I give here
only apply to the game in general and may change in some situations. The
status effects are listed in alphabetical order.
a)cold
b)crying
Ness and Jeff are hindered the most by crying. If you are fighting
normal enemies and only one party member starts crying, it is usually
unnecessary to heal. However, if Ness and/or Jeff start crying and you
are fighting more powerful enemies, use Healing[beta] on one or both of
them (have Jeff use the Heavy Bazooka if he has it when crying).
Paula and Poo can usually use their PSI as an alternative if they start
crying, or you can just have them "bash" with hopes that they will hit
at least some of the time. Note that this status effect does not seem to
reduce the accuracy of enemy attacks such as "tore into" or "lunge
forward."
c)diamondize
d)feel strange
In the late parts of game, try to defeat any enemy that can cause
multiple party members to feel strange as quickly as possible. If you
are unlucky enough to have both Ness and Poo feel strange, use Paula's
most powerful PSI attack to end the battle quickly or try to run away.
This status effect lasts for only the duration of the battle or until
the affected character is physically attacked.
e)homesick
f)mushroomize
g)nausea
h)numb/paralysis
i)poison
j)possess
Effect: a Tiny Li'l Ghost participates in every battle and attacks a
party member each round
There are very few enemies that can possess a party member, and it's
more of a nuisance than a real threat. The Tiny Li'l Ghost has two
attacks: a standard attack that usually inflicts only 1 HP of damage
and a "reach out with its icy hand" attack that can solidify a single
party member. It also has high Speed and usually attacks first in each
round, even in battles near the end of the game when the party is at
substantially high levels.
There are only a few ways to get rid of a Tiny Li'l Ghost. The easiest
way is to go to a healer, who is found in all hospitals, and selecting
the "purify" option. The price the healer charges depends on the
location; the later a location appears in the game, the higher the cost
of the healer's services. You can also go to the doctor in Saturn Valley
and have the ghost removed for free.
k)sleep
l)solidify
m)sunstroke
n)unable to concentrate
4.PSI Information
OFFENSE
Counter: There are only two enemies that can use PSI Rockin. I will
discuss them in the walkthrough sections below.
-alpha
Useful during the beginning of the game before Paula joins the party.
Use it against the Titanic Ant and in Peaceful Rest Valley when a
battle gets too tough and you are heavily outnumbered.
-beta
-gamma
-omega
b)Flash
-alpha
-beta
-gamma
-omega
c)Fire
Use Fire when you want to soften up a large row of normal enemies.
Follow that up with "bash" attacks to take out multiple enemies in a
single round. It can also be used as an alternative PSI attack against
enemies resistant to Freeze, though its PP cost may make you reconsider
in some cases. Note that some enemies are resistant to Fire while others
are more vulnerable to it.
Counter: PSI Shield[sigma] will suffice. Most enemies that can use Fire
appear after the middle part of the game, and Paula should have
learned PSI Shield[sigma] by then. Fire resistant equipment
(e.g. the Flame Pendant, etc.) can greatly help in protecting
Paula and Jeff, who have low HP, from this attack. Note that
Fire equivalent attacks, such as "breathe fire," cannot be
defended against with a PSI Shield, but their damage can be
reduced with Fire protective items.
-alpha
-beta
-gamma
-omega
d)Freeze
Quite possibly the most useful PSI attack in the game, Freeze is crucial
in effectively combating bosses and useful against many normal enemies.
Do not be afraid to use Freeze often (especially alpha and beta) as its
damage and cost-effectiveness make it a good alternative to Paula and
Poo's "bash" attacks. The only drawback to this attack is that some
enemies are resistant to it. Of course, do not use Freeze against these
enemies. Other enemies are vulnerable to Freeze and suffer higher
amounts of damage.
Counter: This move is a threat in only a few parts in the game. Use a
PSI Shield[sigma] for protection or defeat the enemy as quickly
as possible.
-alpha
-beta
-gamma
e)Thunder
Thunder can be a risky move because the target is chosen randomly, and
it has a good chance of missing when you are facing only a few enemies.
It has a low PP cost for the amount of damage it inflicts, however, and
it will eliminate any PSI shield the target may be protected with
(though PSI Shield[beta] and [omega] will reflect damage before being
eliminated). As such, Thunder can sometimes be a useful alternative to
attacks such as Fire or Rockin when you want to conserve PP and are
fighting a large group of enemies.
The estimated probability that any one bolt will successfully hit a
random target in relation to the number of enemies you are fighting are
as follows:
1 enemy: 30%
2 enemies: 60%
3 enemies: 90%
4+ enemies: 100%
Counter: A lot of enemies in the game use Thunder attacks, most of them
being Thunder[beta] or an equivalent. As the above figures
suggest, if there are three or four characters in your party,
any Thunder attack is almost guaranteed to hit somebody. PSI
Shield can be used as a counter, but its usefulness is limited
because any PSI shield is destroyed when hit by Thunder. The
best defense is the Franklin Badge, so always have this on
somebody (I recommend Paula for most parts of the game).
Luckily, one bolt doesn't inflict too much damage, and you
should be able to recover from this attack. Note that a PSI
Shield will not protect from Thunder equivalent attacks, such
as an "electrical shock attack."
-alpha
-beta
-omega
f)Starstorm
Counter: Always put up a PSI Shield[sigma] when facing an enemy that can
use Starstorm, and be sure that Paula has a sufficient amount
of Speed to go before the enemy does. If Paula does not have
enough Speed to consistently put up a shield before the enemy
attacks, equip her with the Rabbit's Foot found in the Seventh
Sanctuary Cave. If you do get hit with Starstorm, use Lifeup
[omega] or give priority to recovering Ness and Poo before
their HP counters reach 0 (Ness should be able to survive this
attack most of the time). Those two characters can then recover
Paula and Jeff.
-alpha
-omega
RECOVER
a)Lifeup
Lifeup is an absolutely essential move, and how you use it can make the
difference between victory and defeat in battle. Always save Ness and
Poo's PP for Lifeup.
Counter: Don't worry about enemies using Lifeup. Most enemies cannot use
Lifeup, and even when enemies do use this move, it does not
cause too much difficulty. There are enemies, however, that can
recover HP by other means, and some of them can be very
annoying (the worst enemies are the Atomic Power Robot and the
Nuclear Reactor Robot). In those cases, concentrate your
attacks on a single target.
-alpha
-gamma
-omega
Lifeup[omega] is useful when the entire party has been hit by a PSI
move, such as Starstorm or Fire, and you need to recover the party
quickly.
b)Healing
There are a few items that can act as an alternative to Healing. Some
items, such as the Wet Towel and the Cold Remedy, only heal certain
ailments. These items are too limited in use to be helpful, so sell them
if you obtain any. Other items, such as the Cup of Lifenoodles and the
Horn of Life, are alternatives to Healing[gamma] or Healing[omega] and
should be held on to if Ness or Poo has not learned these higher level
Healing moves.
Counter: The only time Healing should give you any trouble is when
enemies use Healing to revive an already defeated enemy.
Fortunately, this happens very rarely and only in the late
parts of the game. The best course of action is to defeat the
enemies that can use Healing first.
-alpha
-beta
-gamma
Level Learned: Ness (53)
Poo (36)
Recovery: unconscious (25% of max HP), diamondized, numb
-omega
c)PSI Magnet
Use PSI Magnet against enemies that do not pose much of a threat (e.g.
paralyzed enemies) or when Paula and Poo's "bash" attacks are
ineffective. I find that using this move and Magic Butterflies for
recovering PP is more effective than using PP recovery food items.
Counter: A substantial number of enemies in the game can use PSI Magnet.
Luckily, few of them can use PSI Magnet[omega], but Magnet
[alpha] can still be an annoyance. There is very little that
can be done to defend against PSI Magnet other then to defeat
any enemies who use this move quickly.
-alpha
-omega
ASSIST
a)Shield
Each use of Shield protects from three physical attacks (up to a maximum
of eight attacks). The only exception is a SMAAAASH!! attack, which will
eliminate a Shield with one hit. Any damage reduced by "defend" is
cumulative with any damage reduced by Shield. Using different types of
shields (such as [alpha] and [beta] or a PSI Shield) will replace the
previous shield.
Shield does not seem to reduce the damage inflicted by all physical
attacks, although [beta] and [omega] always reflect physical damage.
Attacks such as "tear into" and Jeff's "shoot" inflict the same damage
whether a character is shielded or not, but the same percentage of
damage is reflected by Shield[beta] and [omega]. Here is a list of
attacks that Shield does not affect:
Jeff's "shoot"
Jeff's Heavy Bazooka
Bottle Rockets (all types)
Bombs
Super Bombs
"peck at your eyes"
"fire a beam"
"biting attack"
"take a bite using its poisonous fangs"
"bite you hard"
"charge forward"
"tear into you"
"growl and lunge forward"
"stomp with its huge foot"
"jab with a spear"
The battle command "defend" also does not seem to reduce the damage
inflicted by the above attacks.
-alpha
-beta
-sigma
-omega
b)PSI Shield
There is only one PSI Shield move that I find helpful in this game, and
that is PSI Shield[sigma]. The other moves either do not offer enough
protection or cost too much PP. Fortunately, PSI Shield[sigma] is
sufficient to defend against PSI attacks in most situations, and the
other PSI Shield moves are only useful in special cases.
Each use of PSI Shield protects from three PSI attacks; multiple uses of
PSI Shield can provide additional protection from up to a maximum of
eight attacks. A PSI Shield[alpha] and [sigma] can be used together to
strengthen each other; likewise for [beta] and [omega].
Unlike Shield, PSI Shield absorbs all damage inflicted by PSI, and PSI
Shield[beta] and [omega] reflect 100% of damage. It does not, however,
protect against Assist or Recovery PSI attacks, such as Paralysis or PSI
Magnet. It also does not protect against PSI equivalent attacks, such as
"electrical shock attack" or "breathe fire." Here is a list of enemy
moves that are equivalent to PSI attacks but cannot be defended against
with a PSI Shield:
Counter: PSI Shield does not cause as much trouble as Shield does
because most enemies can be defeated with standard "bash"
attacks. If you ever want to eliminate an enemy's PSI Shield,
Jeff's Neutralizer is usually the most effective method.
-alpha
-beta
-sigma
Level Learned: Paula (27)
-omega
I don't recommend you use PSI Shield[omega] because it costs too much
PP. The damage reflection is mostly unnecessary and does not justify
the PP cost in most cases. Use PSI Shield[sigma] instead.
c)Hypnosis
Counter: Few enemies in the game can use Hypnosis, but a number of
enemies can put party members to sleep by other methods. You
usually shouldn't have to heal any sleeping party members if
only one person is affected.
-alpha
-omega
A mostly unnecessary move because of its high PP cost. You won't often
fight multiple enemies that are vulnerable to Hypnosis, and putting
multiple enemies to sleep is usually not necessary. Stick with Hypnosis
[alpha] for the most part.
d)Paralysis
Paralysis is a very potent move that can render even the most powerful
enemies helpless. If you manage to get an enemy paralyzed, it is almost
guaranteed you will win the battle since paralyzed enemies waste most
turns doing nothing. If you are facing an unusually powerful enemy or
boss, check and see if the enemy is susceptible to Paralysis by using
Jeff's "spy" command.
-alpha
-omega
e)Offense Up
Counter: I am not sure of any enemy that can use Offense Up, but there
are enemies that can increase their stats by other means. All
stats increasing moves in this game do not pose a threat and
can be ignored.
-alpha
-omega
Defense Down will decrease the Defense of any single target five times.
The first four times will decrease a target's Defense by 6% of its
current Defense. The decrease in Defense dips to about 4~5% for the
fifth time and drops to 0% thereafter.
The problem with Defense Down is similar to those of Offense Up, namely
that the decrease in Defense is too small and that using this move is
mostly a waste of turns.
Counter: All stats reducing attacks in this game do not pose a threat
and can be ignored.
-alpha
-omega
g)Brainshock
Brainshock is only effective against a few enemies in the game and isn't
very helpful for the most part. Enemies that are susceptible to
Brainshock are usually not too powerful to begin with, and an enemy can
easily revert back to normal if physically attacked. This move is
worthwhile to use in only a few places.
Counter: There is not much you can do to prevent Brainshock other than
to quickly defeat the enemy that can use this move or an
equivalent attack. Whether or not you want to heal an affected
party depends on the situation, though in general you will want
to have at least Ness or Paula participate unhindered in major
fights.
-alpha
-omega
a)Teleport
Note that you can control the path the party travels when teleporting
with the control pad. This can be a little tricky with Teleport[alpha]
because the party moves so quickly, but adjusting the party's path can
allow the party to use Teleport in places it otherwise could not.
-alpha
-beta
5.Jeff's Items
This section lists the items only usable by Jeff. Here you can find
general information on each item and strategies on how to use them. Items
are listed in alphabetical order.
The Bad Key Machine is not used once Jeff rescues Ness and Paula. Give
it to Escargo Express as soon as possible.
b)Bazooka
The Bazooka is not very useful since Jeff's "shoot" attack usually
inflicts more damage. It's better not to buy or keep this weapon.
The Big Bottle Rocket can make boss battles in the middle part of the
game much easier. You should not hesitate to use this item against
bosses, as its price is very cheap considering the damage it inflicts.
Always keep at least two of these in Jeff's inventory once they become
available and up until you are able to buy Multi Bottle Rockets. Note
that enemies with high Speed are resistant to this item (see Bottle
Rocket section below).
d)Bottle Rocket
Damage inflicted by this item and the Big/Multi Bottle Rocket is not
reduced by Shield, though damage can be reflected and inflict mortal
damage to Jeff unless the Shield is eliminated first. The effectiveness
of Bottle Rockets seems to depend on the target's Speed, with faster
enemies receiving less damage or even avoiding damage altogether. The
success rate against most enemies, however, is near 100%.
e)Counter-PSI Unit
The Counter-PSI Unit renders a single enemy unable to use PSI for four
rounds. Its success rate seems to vary significantly depending on the
enemy, and it does not work often against bosses or powerful PSI users.
It is mostly unnecessary, so give it to Escargo Express.
f)Defense Shower
Obtained: repair the Broken Trumpet (40 IQ required), which can be found
in the third area of the Stonehenge Base
Defense Increase: 6% of current defense the first three times
4~5% of current defense the last fourth time
0% for, and after, the fifth time
Obtained: repair the Broken Bazooka (45 IQ required), which can be found
in a trash can in the Fourside Sewers (the Fifth Sanctuary
Location)
Damage: 140~400 HP
Peripheral Damage: 70~200 HP
h)HP-sucker
i)Hungry HP-sucker
Obtained: repair the Broken Tube (36 IQ required), which can be found in
a gift box in the Monkey Cave in Dusty Dunes Dessert
HP Drain: 10~20% of target's max HP
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 70~100%)
Use the Hungry HP-sucker rather than Lifeup for recovering Jeff when
facing multiple normal enemies. Do not use during boss battles, however,
as its success rate against bosses is low.
This is the mother of all weapons. You will not find a weapon or PSI
move in the game that can inflict more damage than the Multi Bottle
Rocket. This item can make fights against powerful bosses seem like a
cakewalk, and it has a very reasonable price to boot. It's only weakness
is it's ineffectiveness against enemies with high Speed, though most
bosses do not have this characteristic.
Always keep at least two Multi Bottle Rockets in Jeff's inventory once
they become available. The best place to buy them is from the arms
dealer in Deep Darkness.
k)Neutralizer
Obtained: gift box in the Monkey Cave in the Dusty Dunes Desert
Success Rate: 100%
The Neutralizer will reset any stat changes that have occurred due to
PSI moves, such as Offense Up or Defense Down, or items, such as the
Defense Spray. By far its most useful function, however, is to remove
any shields protecting enemies or party members. Because its success
rate is 100% and affects all enemies on screen, this item is usually
more useful for removing enemy shields than the Shield Killer is. The
only drawback is that it can remove any shields your party may have, but
this is usually not a big problem. Always keep this item in Jeff's
inventory if you do not have the Shield Killer.
l)Shield Killer
Obtained: repair the Broken Pipe (30 IQ required), which can be found in
a gift box in the second floor of Dr. Andonuts's Lab
Success Rate: ~80%
m)Slime Generator
Obtained: fix the Broken Iron (10 IQ required), which can be found in a
gift box in the Brick Road dungeon in Winters and in a trash
can in the Fourside Sewers; it can also be bought at Burglin
Park or from a dealer in northern Fourside
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 60~100%)
The success rate of the Slime Generator is high enough against some
enemies to allow you to pin them down by using the Slime Generator each
round. The Slime Generator can also be used as an alternative to
"defend" if Jeff has nothing else to do.
You can sell or discard the Slime Generator once the Monkey's Love is
obtained in Deep Darkness. The Monkey's Love has the same effect as the
Slime Generator but can be used by any party member. I usually keep
both, though.
6.Inventory Management
Inventory management is one of the more annoying things about this game
because each character can only carry a limited number of items. Luckily,
it is not necessary to carry too many goods, and you should not hesitate
to sell or discard much of the items you obtain. Here are a few general
strategies that can make inventory management easier:
This convenient item can allow you to quickly and easily sell unneeded
goods whenever you need to make room in your inventory. Customers will
only approach the party outside of caves and buildings.
Since each party member has different strengths and abilities, each
member should carry different kinds of items. Here are a few general
suggestions on how to decide what kind of items each party member should
carry:
Ness: In the early parts of the game, have Ness carry most of the
party's food items and use them when his PP runs low. After about
the middle part of the game, give priority to items that can
revive unconscious party members, such as the Cup of Lifenoodles
and the Horn of Life. Use those items instead of Healing[gamma] to
revive unconscious party members in battle if Poo cannot use
Healing[omega].
Paula: Paula should carry all required items that Ness does not have to
carry, such as the Backstage Pass and the Jar of Fly Honey.
She should also carry the Franklin Badge for most parts of the
game.
Jeff: Jeff should carry all items only he can use or repair. He should
also carry at least two Big or Multi Bottle Rockets at all times.
These items will take up much of Jeff's inventory by the middle
part of the game and allow little room for much else. Give him
food and medicinal items if he has space.
Poo: Give Poo any offensive items, such as the Snake Bag, the Rust
Promoter DX, and the Monkey's Love, and use them when his "bash"
attack and PSI are not effective.

IV.Set Up
*******************************************************************************
Set text speed to "fast" when starting your game. If you set text speed to a
slower setting, you can select "set up" when opening your file to change it. A
faster text speed will allow you take better advantage of the rolling HP
counter and make it easier to survive in battles.
Also, throughout the guide I will refer to party members and your "favorite
thing" as the first suggestion offered when selecting the "don't care" option
of the naming screen. These names are as follows:
Pet: King
Food: Steak
Thing: Rockin

Outline
1.The Beginning
Recommended Level: 1 -> 4
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Cracked Bat
Don't forget the Cracked Bat. Obtain and equip it as soon as the game
starts.
b)Sound Stone
Use: required item; allows you to see which Sanctuary Locations were
visited and listen to the melodies recorded
Obtained: from Buzz Buzz, after returning Pokey and Picky to their home
The Sound Stone can only be carried by Ness and cannot be removed from his
inventory once it is obtained. However, if Ness's inventory is full at the
time Buzz Buzz tries to give this item to Ness, it will be sent to Ness's
sister, Tracy, instead. This will free up a space in Ness's inventory for
most of the game. The best way to fill up Ness's inventory is to fight
Spiteful Crows and collect the Cookies they drop. Even without the Sound
Stone, Sanctuary melodies will be recorded and you can properly progress
through the game.

ENEMIES
a)Coil Snake
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 1~4 HP
-Coil
Effect: solidify a single target for one turn
Strategy
Two or three hits from Ness and King's attacks should be enough to
defeat the Coil Snake.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 8 HP or lower
b)Runaway Dog
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 5~6 HP
Strategy
Two hits from Ness's "bash" together with two hits from King's attack
should defeat the Runaway Dog. When Ness reaches level 4, only about one
or two hits from his "bash" attack should be needed. This enemy
sometimes drops a Bread Roll when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 12 or below
c)Spiteful Crow
Attacks
Strategy
About three or four hits from Ness and King's attacks will defeat the
Spiteful Crow. One or two hits from Ness's "bash" attack should suffice
once he reaches level 4. This enemy always drops a Cookie when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 18 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
The game will begin with the sound of a meteorite landing and Ness getting
out of bed. Leave Ness's room and enter the next door in the hall into
Tracy's room. Open the gift box to obtain the Cracked Bat, Ness's first
weapon in the game. Equip it and go downstairs.
You can talk to Ness's mother and have Ness change into his regular
clothes if you want, but I personally prefer walking around in his
jammies. There is nothing else to do here so leave Ness's house.
Once you are outside, follow the path that initially leads southwest to go
to the impact site. Nothing special will happen if you talk to the people
on the way, though they can give you a sense of the quirkiness and humor
this game has to offer. There is a gift box on the way to the impact site
that contains a Bread Roll. Don't obtain it just yet, since there is a
chance it will get stolen by an enemy that will apear soon.
Talk to Pokey (the chubby kid) upon reaching the impact site. Return to
Ness's home after doing so and talk to Ness's mother, who should be
standing in front of the door. Answer "yes" when prompted; answering "no"
will cause Ness's mother to give a short lecture on the importance of a
good night's sleep.
b)Buzz Buzz
When Ness wakes up again, go downstairs and walk toward the door. Pokey
will barge in on his own and explain his predicament. Answer "yes" to his
request; answering "no" will just cause Pokey to ask again.
Talk to Tracy and she will give Ness a Cookie. The Cookie only recovers 6
HP, but it's somewhat helpful at this stage of the game for recovering
Ness after battles.
You can also talk to Ness's dog, King, to temporarily gain his help. He
has moderate Offense and will be of considerable help in battle.
The phone will suddenly ring when you try to leave the house with Pokey.
Answer the phone and talk to Ness's father (who also seems to know Ness is
going on a long adventure). Leave Ness's house.
Once outside, start fighting the enemies in front of Ness's house to level
up. Save your food items and use Lifeup[alpha] when low on HP, and talk to
Ness's mother to recover as needed. You should recover with Lifeup when
Ness's HP drops down to a point where he cannot survive two hits from the
enemy's strongest attack. For example, the Spiteful Crow can inflict about
9 HP of damage at most with its standard attack. Since the Spiteful Crow
usually attacks before Ness, you should try to keep Ness's HP above 18
when fighting this enemy. Try to estimate minimum HP values like this when
fighting enemies near the beginning of the game, as it will help you
survive battles without wasting PP and food items.
Note: Later in the game, Ness will obtain an item called the Sound Stone,
which will be required to stay in Ness's inventory at all times.
However, if Ness's inventory is full at the time he is given this
item, the Sound Stone will be sent to Ness's sister Tracy instead.
If you want to free up a space in Ness's inventory, fight the
enemies in the area and stock up on the items they drop. The best
enemy to fight is the Spiteful Crow, since it always drops a Cookie
when defeated. Whether the extra inventory space is worth the time
needed to fill Ness's inventory is up to you. Be sure not to talk to
Tracy after she gets the Sound Stone, as she will give Ness the item
if you do so.
Level up Ness to at least level 4. Once you are ready, make sure that Ness
has full HP and PP, and start walking toward the impact site.
Upon reaching the impact site, King will get scared and run away. Continue
walking forward and talk to Picky, the boy sleeping under the tree. Picky
will agree to return home with Ness and join your party.
As you try to walk back to Pokey's house, Buzz Buzz will emerge from the
meteorite and tell his story. Answer "yes" when you are prompted to
continue; answering "no" will cause Buzz Buzz to retell his story from the
beginning.
Start heading towards Pokey's house. On the way, you will be ambushed by
the Starman Jr. The battle is easy, since Buzz Buzz does all the work.
Enter Pokey's house and talk to Pokey's father, Aloysius Minch. At this
point, Pokey, Picky, and Buzz Buzz will leave the party.
Talk to Buzz Buzz and answer "yes" when prompted the first time and "no"
when prompted the second time to receive the Sound Stone; otherwise, Buzz
Buzz will repeat his explanation.
EXTRAS
a)Lier X. Agerate
Purpose: none
You will no doubt notice Lier X. Agerate's house on your way to the impact
site during the beginning part of the game. Talking to him during the
night will not do anything, but his dialogue changes between your first
and second trips to the impact site.
After daybreak, go back to his house and you'll see him standing next to a
giant hole. Talk to him and he will lead Ness down the hole and through a
short cave, at the end of which will be Lier's "treasure." Nothing will be
gained by examining the statue or talking to Lier, but the treasure itself
plays a significant role in the storyline later in the game.

2.The Sharks
Recommended Level: 4 -> 7
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Map
Use: push the X button to see a map of the town you are currently in
Obtained: librarian at Onett Library
The Map is free and can be helpful. If you decide you don't need it, give
it to Tracy or Escargo Express (call Ness's mom to obtain their phone
number).
This is the best "other" armor for Ness at this point in the game. To
obtain it, find a small recess in the edge of the grove north of the Onett
Library; there should be a shaggy haired kid walking next to it. Enter the
recess and walk north into the trees to enter a tree house. Talk to one of
the kids inside and he'll give you the Mr. Baseball Cap.

ENEMIES
a)Frank
Recommended Level: 6
Attacks
-Come out swinging
Damage: 7~9 HP
-Brandish a knife
Damage: 18~23 HP
Comments: Make sure Ness can survive two hits from this attack by
recovering with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if his HP falls
below 40.
Strategy
About four hits from Ness's "bash" attack should defeat Frank. Have at
least one Hamburger in Ness's inventory before fighting Frank.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if his HP falls to 45
or lower
b)Frankystein Mark II
Recommended Level: 6
Attacks
-Throw a punch
Damage: 12~17 HP
Strategy
About five or six hits from Ness's "bash" should be enough to defeat
the Frankystein. This battle should be easier than the first fight
against Frank, since the Frankystein wastes every other turn by
"generating a burst of steam." Take advantage of these wasted turns by
recovering with Lifeup or a Hamburger when Ness's HP reaches a point
where he cannot survive a hit from Frankystein's "tear into you" attack.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP reaches 32 or
lower
c)Pogo Punk
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~2 HP with Cheap Bracelet
7 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Charge forward
Damage: 8~11 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
14~18 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Fall down
Effect: none
Strategy
About two or three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Pogo Punk.
Defeat this enemy last if it appears in a group. The Pogo Punk will
sometimes drop a Hamburger.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 20~30 or lower
d)Skate Punk
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
5 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
Strategy
About two or three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Skate Punk.
This is the only Shark that can call for assistance in battle. If you
are at a low level (lower than 5) and do not have the Cheap Bracelet,
defeat this enemy first when it appears in a group. If you feel like you
can handle the Sharks and are leveling up, defeat this enemy last to
help you level up faster.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 20~30 or lower
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~2 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
7 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: none
Strategy
About two or three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Yes Man
Junior. This enemy is somewhat weaker than the Pogo Punk, so defeat the
Yes Man Junior before attacking any Pogo Punks.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 20 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 30 or lower if Ness
does not have the Cheap Bracelet and if the enemy is fighting
in a group
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
The path that leads south to Onett is now open, so walk south and then
west to the library. Enter the Library and talk to the librarian near the
entrance to obtain a Map, an item that lets you see the layout of all
major towns in the game. Push the X button to see a map of the town you
are in. If you decide that you don't need the map, give it to Tracy or
Escargo Express. To obtain Escargo Express's phone number, simply call
Ness's mom from a telephone.
To the north of the library should be a kid with shaggy hair. Enter the
small recess in the cluster of trees next to the kid and walk north to
enter the nearby tree house. Talk to the kid wearing the large red cap to
obtain the Mr. Baseball Cap and equip it on Ness.
When you reach the main part of town, examine the trash can next to the
Burger Shop to obtain a Hamburger. Next, go to the Drugstore and withdraw
all of your money from the ATM. Sell any Cookies or Bread Rolls you may
have and buy the Tee Ball Bat and the Cheap Bracelet. If you cannot buy
both items, give priority to the Cheap Bracelet and battle the Sharks
around the Arcade in southern Onett to accumulate more money. If you need
to recover, try to go back to Ness's house rather than staying at the
Hotel; money may be a little tight at this point of the game, so it's
important to save as much as possible.
Once you have obtained the proper items, fight the Sharks around the
Arcade in southern Onett and level up to at least level 6. Be sure to
fight the Sharks in the Arcade as well; one will approach you and
automatically fight you as you enter the Arcade, and another one can be
found guarding the door leading to Frank. Be liberal in your use of Lifeup
to help you survive in battle, and be sure to keep any Hamburgers you
obtain.
b)Frank
Make sure you have at least one Hamburger in your inventory before
approaching Frank. If you don't have any, go to the Burger Shop and buy
one.
The fight against Frank is divided into two battles: one against Frank by
himself and another one against Frankystein. There is no break between
the two battles, so make sure you do not use too much PP in the first
fight by limiting your PSI use to Lifeup[alpha].
Recover Ness if his HP falls to about 45 or lower when fighting Frank and
use "bash" for offense. The fight against Frank is the harder one, so
don't worry if it feels like Ness is spending a lot of turns recovering.
About four hits from Ness's "bash" will defeat Frank. The fight against
Frankystein is a little easier because the Frankystein will waste every
other turn to "generate a burst of steam." Take advantage of these wasted
turns to recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if Ness's HP
falls to about 32 or lower.
Once you defeat Frankystein, Frank will change his ways and become your
friend. After Frank is done talking, enter the Arcade, reenter the same
area, and talk to Frank again. He will allow you to rest and recover for
free.
EXTRAS
a)Escargo Express
Escargo Express is a company that will store any unneeded items for you in
a separate storage area. They are extremely useful when you want to get
rid of an item that you cannot throw away.
Simply call Ness's mom to learn Escargo Express's phone number. You can
call Escargo Express to have up to three items delivered to or picked up
from the party. Any deliveries or pickups requested over the phone will
cost $18. Going to Ness's house and talking to his sister will allow you
to store or pick up items for free.
If you go to southern Onett and walk west past the Hospital, you will
reach a house that is being sold for $7500. Do not buy or attempt to gain
enough money to buy this house, as there is no point. $7500 will become
much more affordable later in the game, and you can always come back later
if you want.
If you buy the house, you can "check" the drawer near the door to read a
slightly amusing story. You can also get your picture taken by the
cameraman near the middle of the house.

Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Hamburger
Have at least three Hamburgers before heading to the First Sanctuary Cave.
b)Travel Charm
The Travel Charm is useless at this point in the game because no enemies
can use Paralysis. You can obtain it for free, however, so sell it to make
some money.

ENEMIES
a)Attack Slug
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~3 HP
-Hypnosis[alpha]
Comments: Attack Slugs cannot use PSI for the first four rounds of
battle.
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
Only one or two hits from Ness's "bash" attack should defeat the Attack
Slug. This enemy sometimes drops a Bomb when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha], as needed
b)Black Antoid
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 10~13 HP
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recovers about 60 HP
Strategy
Black Antoids are the strongest enemies that lurk in this area, and they
can be very dangerous if they appear in groups. If you are facing only
one or two, "bash" them and recover with Lifeup[alpha] as necessary. If
you end up facing more Black Antoids, it can help to use Hypnosis to
put one to sleep and focus on attacking its cohorts. If you get really
desperate, then one use of PSI Rockin[alpha] will likely defeat all
Black Antoids in sight.
About two hits from Ness's "bash" will defeat this enemy. Don't be
afraid to use Hamburgers if needed, but try to leave at least two in
Ness's inventory for the upcoming boss battle.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP falls to 26 or
below
Hypnosis[alpha], if facing a group
PSI Rockin[alpha], if facing a group
c)Rowdy Mouse
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 1 HP
10~15 HP if SMAAAASH!! hit
Comments: The Rowdy Mouse will get a SMAAAASH!! hit about 50% of the
time. Other times, it will only inflict about 1 HP of damage
or miss.
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" will defeat the Rowdy Mouse. If this
enemy appears with a Black Antoid, either defeat the Black Antoid first
or use Hypnosis[alpha] on the Antoid and attack the Rowdy Mouse.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 30 or below
Recommended Level: 9
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 19~25 HP
-Biting attack
Damage: 25~45 HP
Comments: The description of this attack in the battle dialogue window
is identical to that of the Titanic Ant's weaker biting
attack.
-Shield[alpha]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by physical attacks by 50%
Comments: This is quite possibly the Titanic Ant's most annoying move.
If it uses this move, the only thing you can do is hit the
shield three times with Ness's "bash" to eliminate it.
-Defense Down[alpha]
Effect: reduces Ness's Defense by about 6%
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Effect: drains PP from its target
Comments: This move makes conserving PP almost impossible in this fight.
Use PSI moves early in the battle and use Hamburgers for HP
recovery if Lifeup[alpha] can no longer be used.
Strategy
Have Ness use PSI Rockin[alpha] until his PP is drained and use "bash"
thereafter. Save any leftover PP for Lifeup[alpha]. Once Ness cannot use
PSI anymore, use Hamburgers for recovery. You should be able to survive
the battle with at least three Hamburgers.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
b)The Shack
Exit City Hall, head north to the Library, and turn left at the fork in
the path. When you reach the shack, walk to the door and "use" the Key to
the Shack to unlock it.
Talk to one of the travelers and he will give Ness a Travel Charm, an item
that provides immunity to Paralysis on whomever it is equipped. No enemies
at this point in the game can use Paralysis, however, so sell the Travel
Charm to make some money.
c)Sanctuary Cave
Most of the enemies in this cave are not too strong and can be dealt with
by just using "bash" attacks. The Attack Slugs here tend to attack in
groups, but hardly pose a threat. The Slugs are the best enemies to fight
if you want to level up Ness, so stay close to the entrance of the cave
while fighting them and return to Frank or Ness's mom when you need to
recover.
The Rowdy Mouse is considerably more powerful, but it can also be defeated
by just using standard attacks. Its SMAAAASH!! attack can inflict about 15
HP of damage, so try to keep Ness's HP above 30 when fighting them.
The enemy to watch out for is the Black Antoid. If you face only one or
two of this enemy, use "bash" attacks and recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP
falls to about 26 or below. If you face a group, consider using Hypnosis
to put one to sleep while you focus on defeating the others. If things get
really bad, use PSI Rockin[alpha] to defeat most or all Black Antoids
you're facing. If you run low on PP, you can find a Magic Butterfly
outside the third level of the cave.
The first few cave openings that you see lead to small rooms with gift
boxes. The first opening leads to a Skip Sandwich, the second leads to
nothing, and the third leads to a Cold Remedy. The only item I worth
obtaining is the Cold Remedy in preparation for an upcoming part of the
game.
Your first goal is to reach the Magic Butterfly area. The cave opening on
the third level of the cave should lead you to a small area outside. A
Magic Butterfly frequently spawns here, so exit and reenter the area if
you do not see a Magic Butterfly. You can come back here to recover with
Lifeup as needed and use the Butterfly to restore Ness's PP. If Ness is
not at least level 9, fight the enemies in the adjacent areas to level up.
There is a gift box containing a Hamburger in the room following the Magic
Butterfly area. Obtain and save it for the upcoming boss battle.
Before talking to the Shining Spot, use a Hamburger or some other food
item to recover HP. Use PSI Rockin[alpha] against the Sanctuary Boss until
Ness runs out of PP and use "bash" thereafter in the battle. If Ness has
any leftover PP, save it for Lifeup. Once Ness's PP reaches 4 or lower,
use Hamburgers for recovery. If Ness has at least three Hamburgers, he
should be able to survive the fight.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
4.The Police
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Hamburger
Have about three of these in preparation for the fight against the Onett
police force, and use it as an alternative to Lifeup if PP runs low.
b)Exit Mouse
There is no need to obtain one of these now, so leave them to save space
in your inventory.
GIFT BOXES

ENEMIES
a)Captain Strong
Recommended Level: 11
Attacks
-Lose temper
Effect: Strong's Offense increases by 1
-Guard
Effect: decreases damage inflicted by Ness's "bash" by 50% for a single
round
Strategy
About five or six hits from Ness's "bash" will defeat Capt. Strong.
Have about three Hamburgers in preparation for this battle. You will
probably have to recover in every other round if Strong is aggressive
with his attacks.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP reaches 80 or
lower
b)Cop
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 11~15 HP
-Crushing chop
Damage: 26~32 HP
Strategy
About three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover if Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 60 or lower
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 11~14 HP
-Scatter spores
Effect: make Ness feel strange in battle; alters movement control
outside of battle
Comments: There is no PSI move or item that can cure mushroomization.
If Ness gets mushroomized, avoid fighting as much as possible
until Ness reaches Twoson Hospital and talks to the blue
haired Healer. He will remove the mushroom and pay Ness $50
for it.
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Ramblin' Evil
Mushroom. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 24 or lower
if Ness is mushroomized, recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls
to 50 or lower (Ness can inflict about 40 HP of damage to
himself)
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
Fight the enemies in the First Sanctuary cave and level up to at least
level 11. Exit the cave and a police officer will approach Ness. Whether
you answer "yes" or "no" will make no difference. Before going to the
police station, buy some Hamburgers if Ness has less than three and
recover by talking to Frank.
Enter the police station in southern Onett and talk to Captain Strong, the
one with the mustache. He will lead Ness to a room in the back of the
building.
Four regular Cops will battle Ness one at a time, with the last one
chickening out. Attack with Ness's "bash" and use Lifeup[alpha] when HP
falls to 60 or below.
Once the regular Cops are defeated, Strong himself will battle Ness. Use
Ness's "bash" attack for offense and save PP for Lifeup[alpha]. Recover
with Lifeup or a Hamburger if Ness's HP reaches 80 or lower. You may have
to spend every other round recovering if Strong is aggressive with his
attacks.
Once Strong is defeated, he will call some of his men and order the road
to Twoson be opened. Recover by talking to Frank and head south. On the
way you will come across a house with some Exit Mice. There is no need to
obtain one now, so leave them; you can get one in more convenient places
later in the game.
Further down the road, there may be some Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms lurking.
Try to avoid fighting these if you can because fighting them will likely
cause Ness to be mushroomized. If Ness gets mushroomized, he will be
confused in battle and his movement controls will be altered on the field.
If affected, avoid fighting as much as possible and go to the Hospital in
Twoson as quickly as you can. The Healer there will pay Ness $50 for the
mushroom and remove it from his head.

1.Second City
Equipment:
ITEMS
Use: summons a customer to buy an item from you; can only be used outdoors
Obtained: from the shaggy haired kid in Burglin Park
There will be many instances in the game where you will have an item that
is unnecessary or needs to be discarded. Use the For Sale Sign in those
cases to sell those unneeded items and earn some money.
b)Fresh Egg
Leave this item in your inventory for a little while and it will turn
into a Chicken, an item that can be sold for $110. The Fresh Egg can be
bought from the blonde dude in Burglin Park for $12, so buying an Egg and
waiting until it turns into a Chicken can net you $98.
c)Bicycle
d)Broken Machine
The Broken Machine can be repaired by a party member that will join Ness
in the next major town. The Counter-PSI Unit is a tool that can render an
enemy unable to use PSI for four rounds. It doesn't always work and it's
not very useful, so you can leave the Broken Machine behind.

recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 32 or below
b)Cop
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 5~6 HP
-Crushing chop
Damage: 19~25 HP

Damage: 25~30 HP
Strategy
About eight hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat Everdred. This is
one of the few battles where Shield[alpha] can be useful, though Shield
will not reduce the damage inflicted by Everdred's biting attack. Buy
the Copper Bracelet in Burglin Park before fighting Everdred. Use PSI
Rockin[alpha] if you want to inflict extra damage.

Damage: 14~18 HP
-Use a toothbrush
Effect: solidify a single party member

enemy in a group, attack and defeat it last.
Attacks
-Standard Attack
Damage: 14~19 HP
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Local Guy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 35 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
NOTE: Inside the Hotel is a man wearing glasses and a suit. Talk to him
seventeen times and he will give Ness $50.
Withdraw money from an ATM so you have about $400. Go to Burglin Park and
talk to the shaggy haired kid to obtain the For Sale Sign, an item that
allows you to sell items anywhere outside. Talk to the man on the kid's
left, buy and equip the Copper Bracelet, and sell the Cheap Bracelet.
b)Everdred
Everdred lives in a house located inside Burglin Park. If you come close
enough to his house, he will jump off of his roof and attack you. It is
not necessary to fight him to progress in the game, but he plays an
important role in the game's storyline a couple of times later on, and
this fight will serve as an introduction to him. Plus, he gives a good
amount of experience points.
If you fight Everdred, have Ness use Shield[alpha] in the first round to
defend against Everdred's standard attack and use "bash" attacks
thereafter. You can also have Ness use PSI Rockin[alpha], though I think
it is safer to save his PP for Lifeup. Recover if Ness's HP falls below
55~60.
Go to southern Twoson and enter Apple Kid's house. There is a trash can in
here that contains a Broken Machine, an item that Jeff, a future party
member, can repair into the Counter-PSI Unit. The Counter-PSI is not a
very helpful item, however, so you can leave the Broken Machine behind.
Talk to Apple Kid and he will ask for some food. Give him the cheapest
food item you have. If you do not have a food item, go to Burglin Park,
buy a Ketchup Packet for $2, and give that to him.
Next, he will ask for $200. You have no choice but to give it to him. If
you do not have the money, you can buy some Fresh Eggs in Burglin Park
from a blonde haired dude for $12, wait until the Eggs mature into
Chickens, and sell the Chickens for $110 each.
Once you pay Apple Kid, the little mouse will move in front of the door.
Talk to him and he will give Ness the Receiver Phone, an item that Ness
is required to have in his inventory at all times.
Next, go to Peaceful Rest Valley, the area east of Twoson. On the way,
you will likely encounter some Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms, Mobile Sprouts,
and Li'l UFOs. As long as Ness has at least 20 PP and a few food items,
he should be able to survive. Defeat any enemies you face with standard
"bash" attacks. If Ness catches a cold, use Healing[alpha] after the
battle is over. If you face a group of enemies, defeat the Mobile Sprouts
first. Their PSI Magnet[alpha] can be very damaging, and you will be in
trouble if Ness runs out of PP while away from town. If Ness gets
mushroomized, there is a girl near the entrance to the Valley who will
remove the mushroom from Ness's head.
Your goal is the pencil statue blocking your path in Peaceful Rest Valley.
Keep moving forward until you reach it and "check" it. Head back to
Twoson.
Apple Kid will call Ness on his Receiver Phone upon reaching Twoson. For
some reason, Apple Kid will be waiting for Ness at Burglin Park instead of
his home. Talk to Apple Kid and he will give Ness the Pencil Eraser.
Before heading back to the pencil statue, go to the Hotel and rest to
recover HP and PP.
EXTRAS
b)Paula's Parents
Purpose: none
Paula's father will start to get very worried. If Ness enters and exists
the Hotel, you will see Paula's father running through the street and
calling for Paula. He can also be found in front of the preschool and will
start raising suspicions about Everdred's involvement in Paula's
disappearance.
c)Orange Kid
Orange Kid helps Ness in no way whatsoever and, despite his popularity,
seems much more incompetent than the Apple Kid. You can invest $200 in
his work, but it will serve no purpose. He will give Ness the Suporma if
you give him money, but the item itself is useless and will break after
one use. If you do obtain this item, you can sell it for $25.
If you talk to him after rescuing Paula, Orange Kid will only ask for a
$50 investment. Doing it this way is no different from paying him before
rescuing Paula other than the fact that you lose less money.

Equipment:
ENEMIES
a)Li'l UFO
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 10~14 HP
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Li'l UFO. Defeat the
Li'l UFO before attacking any Spinning Robos.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 28 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 36 or lower and if Ness
has a cold
b)Mobile Sprout
-Standard attack
Damage: 8~11 HP
-Lifeup[alpha]
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Comments: Defeat the Mobile Sprouts before any other enemy to prevent
Ness from losing too much PP to this move. A Teddy Bear can be
a good way to divert this attack away from Ness.
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mobile Sprout.
Defeat this enemy first when it appears in a group. Keep Ness's HP above
50 or so when facing a large group.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[alpha], if overwhelmed
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 22 or lower
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 5~7 HP
-Scatter spores
Effect: mushroomize; makes Ness feel strange in battle; alters movement
control outside of battle
Comments: There is no PSI move or item that can cure mushroomization.
If Ness gets mushroomized, talk to the girl near the entrance
of Peaceful Rest Valley and she will remove the mushroom.
Strategy
About one or two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Ramblin' Evil
Mushroom. This enemy occasionally appears with Mobile Sprouts. Defeat
the Mobile Sprouts first, as they have higher Offense and their PSI
Magnet can be damaging.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 14 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 50 or lower if Ness
is mushroomized (Ness can inflict about 40 HP of damage if he
bashes himself)
d)Spinning Robo
Vulnerable: Freeze
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 15~20 HP
-Shield[alpha]
Strategy
About three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Spinning Robo.
This enemy occasionally appears with Li'l UFOs. If this happens, defeat
the Li'l UFOs first.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 40 or lower
e)Territorial Oak
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 28~35 HP
-Brainshock[alpha]
Comments: There is no practical way to heal feeling strange at this
point in the game. Just keep attacking as you normally would
and keep Ness's HP higher than usual if Ness feels strange.
-Vacuum attack
Effect: decreases Ness's Offense by 1~2 and Defense by 1~2
Strategy
About four or five hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Territorial
Oak. This enemy is the strongest foe lurking in the Valley, but it moves
slower than Ness on the field. If Ness is low on PP, try to avoid this
enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 65 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
Go to Polestar Preschool and walk upstairs into Paula's room. There, you
will find a gift box containing a Teddy Bear, a very helpful item for the
upcoming area. If you have already used up the Teddy Bear in Paula's room,
you can buy another one ($178) at the Department Store if you wish. Also,
if you have not done so already, buy a Copper Bracelet in Burglin Park and
equip it on Ness.
Colds are caused by the many Li'l UFOs and Spinning Robos found in the
Valley. Use Healing[alpha] or a Cold Remedy after battles when Ness
catches a cold, since healing during battle uses up a turn and the enemy
may just give Ness a cold again. Use up any Cold Remedies you have before
using Healing[alpha].
The first thing you have to do is remove the pencil statue with the Pencil
Eraser. Next, cross the bridge and walk all the way to the east side of
the central area and walk a little south on to the elevated area. On the
north side of this area is a gift box with a Travel Charm and on the south
side is a gift box with a Luck Capsule. Neither item is very useful and
can be sold to earn some money.
From this point on, you may encounter some Territorial Oaks, which look
like moving trees on the field. Always defeat them last in battle, as it
will burst into flames upon defeat and inflict over 250 HP of damage to
Ness. Luckily, it moves slower than Ness can walk and can be avoided.
Walk west from the central elevated area and then south along the stream
to find a gift box containing a Croissant.
Next, walk east between the two elevated areas. There is a gift box
containing a bomb below the southern elevated area, but it is not
necessary to obtain it. If you do obtain it, use it against the enemies
here or sell it for a moderate profit. Continue traveling east and head
north after crossing the bridge.
If you are in relatively good condition, travel all the way to the north
along the edge of the stream and then turn west. Continue traveling west
and you will see a gift box containing a Hard Hat. Equip this on Ness and
sell your previous "other" armor. The Hard Hat will significantly reduce
any damage inflicted by enemy attacks and make battles here much easier.
Go back east along the stream and travel south on to the elevated ridge.
Travel all the way to the southern tip of the ridge and open the gift box
to obtain the Cup of Lifenoodles, an item that can revive unconscious
party members and cure almost any status effect.
Enter the cave to the east to exit the Valley. Only Coil Snakes are found
in this cave.

battle.

Damage: 5 HP
Strategy
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Insane Cultist.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 10 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 20~30 or lower if this
enemy appears in groups
b)Mr. Carpainter
Recommended Level: 17
Attacks
-Paint attack
Damage: 25~36 HP
-Lifeup[alpha]
-PSI Shield[alpha]
Strategy
Depending on how Mr. Carpainter attacks, about eight or nine hits from
Ness's "bash" should defeat this enemy.
Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 65 or lower
c)Spiteful Crow
Spiteful Crows lurk outside the cabin in which Paula is held. There is no
difference between these enemies and the ones you faced at the beginning
of the game.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
If you are low on HP and PP, go to the house located in the southwest part
of town and talk to its owner; he will allow Ness to rest for $50.
Go to the Drugstore in the northeast part of town and sell any unnecessary
items you may have. Buy and equip the Sand Lot Bat and sell the Tee Ball
Bat.
b)Mr. Carpainter
Enter the cave to the left of the Drugstore and keep walking until you
reach the cabin. Go inside and talk to Paula in the jail cell to receive
the Franklin Badge, an item that reflects all PSI Thunder and equivalent
attacks from its wearer.
After exiting the cabin, a couple of Insane Cultists and a Spiteful Crow
will battle Ness. Just use standard "bash" attacks to defeat them.
Go back to Happy Happy Village and enter the large building in the center
of the village. Inside, there will be a bunch of cultists blocking Ness's
path. The cultists that are swaying back and forth faster than the others
can be talked to and will either move out of Ness's way or battle him (the
cultists with an empty space adjacent to them will move out of the way;
the other cultists will fight Ness). The two gift boxes in the room
contain a Croissant and a Skip Sandwich, neither of which need to be
obtained. Go to the second floor of the building.
Walk up the podium and talk to Mr. Carpainter. It does not matter whether
you answer "yes" or "no" when prompted. If Ness has the Franklin Badge,
Carpainter's lighting attack will be deflected and you will battle him. If
Ness does not have the Franklin Badge, he will be sent outside. Mr.
Carpainter is one of the easiest bosses in the game, so just use standard
"bash" attacks and use Lifeup when Ness's HP falls below about 60.
Once Mr. Carpainter is defeated, Ness will receive the Key to the Cabin.
Return to the cabin, go up to the jail cell door, and "use" the Key. Paula
will then join Ness.
EXTRAS
a)Make a Donation
Purpose: obtain a Picture Postcard or have a woman follow Ness around for
awhile
If you answer "yes" and donate some money, she will thank Ness and give
him a Picture Postcard. The Postcard serves no practical purpose and using
it will make Ness feel "sad and empty." It cannot be sold for a profit,
since it only sells for $1.
If you answer "no," she will follow Ness around until he enters a building
or a cave or talks to her again and donates something. Nothing of
importance will happen while she follows Ness; it's just for your
amusement (or annoyance).
The woman will no longer ask for donations once Mr. Carpainter is
defeated.
South of the Drugstore is a little food stand that allows you to buy a
Banana and a Fresh Egg at a price you can determine yourself. You can even
obtain them for free. A good way to make money is to "buy" Fresh Eggs for
$0, wait until they turn into Chickens, and sell the Chickens for a $110
profit.
If you buy an item at a cost lower than the listed price, the man standing
behind the tree will attack Ness if you talk to him. The man is an
Unassuming Local Guy, an enemy that should be easily defeated.
The food stand will close permanently once Mr. Carpainter is defeated.

ENEMIES
a)Mighty Bear
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 18~25 HP (Ness)
18~25 HP (Paula)
-Biting attack
Damage: 48~57 HP (Ness)
48~57 HP (Paula)
Strategy
One hit from Paula's Freeze[alpha] and a hit from Ness's "bash" should
defeat the Mighty Bear. If this enemy appears in a group, use Freeze
[beta] against it in the first round to defeat it with one attack. Be
sure to keep Paula's HP at maximum when fighting this enemy.
The Mighty Bear is good for leveling up Paula after she reaches about
level 14. Stay close to the central area of the cave and touch the Magic
Butterflies that often spawn in the area to keep PP at a sufficient
level.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 65 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls below maximum
Attacks
-Be absentminded
Effect: none
Strategy
Two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mole Playing Rough. Once
Paula reaches about level 18, one hit from Ness's "bash" and one hit
from Paula's "bash" should defeat it.
This enemy occasionally appears with Mr. Batties. Defeat the Mr.
Batties first before attacking this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 35 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 35 or lower
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Resistant: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 33~50 HP (Ness)
33~50 HP (Paula)
-Lifeup[alpha]
-PSI Shield[alpha]
-Offense Up[alpha]
Strategy
Use Paralysis as soon as you can to incapacitate the Mondo Mole. Use
"bash" thereafter until it is defeated.
d)Mr. Batty
Attacks
-Standard Attack
Damage: 12~18 HP (Ness)
12~20 HP (Paula)
Strategy
If you are leveling up Paula, have her "defend" while Ness uses "bash."
Keep Paula's HP above 20~30 or so if her level is still low. If Paula is
in danger of being KO'd, use PSI Rockin[alpha].
About one hit from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mr. Batty. Once Paula
reaches about level 18, two hits from her "bash" should defeat this
enemy. If multiple Mr. Batties appear in battle, divide Ness and Paula's
attacks and have each person attack a different target. If Paula attacks
the same Mr. Batty as Ness, her attack will most likely go to waste
since only one hit from Ness's "bash" is usually necessary.
If the Mr. Batty appears with the Mole Playing Rough, defeat the Mr.
Batty first.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rocking[alpha] if you are facing a rather large group of
enemies and Paula is in danger of being KO'd
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 25~35 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 30~40 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
Note: The second sanctuary melody does not have to be learned at this
point in the game. If you wish, you can proceed with returning Paula
to Twoson and learn the second melody later on.
Before moving on, you should spend some time leveling up and properly
equipping Paula. Go to the Drugstore and withdraw about $500 to buy a Fry
Pan, a Copper Bracelet, and a Ribbon for Paula. Also, take the Franklin
Badge from Ness's inventory and place it in Paula's. If Ness is low on HP
and PP, go to the house in the southwest part of the village and recover.
The owner will allow Ness and Paula to rest for free.
When everything is ready, enter the cave on the east side of the village.
Stay relatively close to the entrance and fight the enemies inside to
level up Paula. For the first few fights, have Paula "defend" and use
Lifeup on her if her HP falls to 15 or lower.
Once Paula reaches about level 14, it should be safe to venture even
further into the cave and start fighting Mighty Bears. The Mighty Bears
are powerful, but they have low Speed and can be defeated before they get
a chance to attack. When you are facing only one, have Paula use Freeze
[alpha] and Ness "bash." When they are in a group, have Paula use Freeze
[beta] in the first round to defeat it in one attack. Be sure to keep
Paula's HP at maximum and Ness's HP above 65 when fighting this enemy.
Also, try to stay close to the central area of the cave; Magic Butterflies
often spawn there, and you want to be able to use them to keep PP at a
sufficient level. If you see no Magic Butterflies, walk a little ways off
and come back until there is one.
Make your way to the Shining Spot once Paula reaches level 18.
The battle against Mondo Mole is the easiest boss battle in the game. Use
Paralysis[alpha] against it in the first round to incapacitate it and use
"bash" until it is defeated. Once the battle is over, exit the cave and
record the second sanctuary melody.

Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Hand-Aid
WALKTHROUGH
a)Getting to Threed
Once you rescue Paula, walk back to Twoson and reunite her with her
parents. Going through Peaceful Rest Valley should now be much easier.
Just use standard "bash" attacks and the occasional Lifeup and Healing if
necessary. The bridge that was previously broken is now fixed, allowing
for a shorter path to Twoson. There is nothing new to do in the Valley.
Outside, a man will approach Ness and Paula and ask them to meet Everdred.
Go to Burglin Park, enter Everdred's house, and talk to Everdred to obtain
the Wad of Bills.
Head to Chaos Theater and talk to the Runaway Five band member standing to
the right of the Theater. He will give Ness and Paula the Backstage Pass.
Enter the theater, approach the woman blocking your path, and "use" the
Backstage Pass to gain admission.
Once inside the music hall, walk to the left side of the room and talk to
the girl in the pink dress. She will take Ness and Paula into the Runaway
Five's dressing room.
You can talk to the band members, but nothing will happen if you do. Exit
the dressing room and watch the show.
Next, go to the manager's office and approach him from behind his desk.
"Use" the Wad of Bills while standing next to him and he will let the
Runaway Five leave.
Go outside and talk to the band member standing next to the bus. Answer
"yes" when prompted and enter the bus to go to Threed. If you answer "no,"
you can walk around and go elsewhere, but you will have to talk to him
again and answer "yes" in order to go to the next town. Once you get on
the bus to Threed, you will not be able to return to Onett or Twoson for
some time.

ENEMIES
a)Coil Snake
I don't know why this enemy lurks in Threed, but they are nothing to worry
about.
b)Handsome Tom
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 13~17 HP (Ness)
13~17 HP (Paula)
-Hypnosis[alpha]
-Brainshock[alpha]
-Reel

6~9 HP (Paula)
Strategy
About one hit from Ness's "bash" or two hits from Paula's "bash" should
defeat the No Good Fly.
If the No Good Fly appears with other enemies, attack and defeat it
last. If there are multiple No Good Flies, split up Ness and Paula's
attack. Since only one hit from Ness's "bash" is usually needed to
defeat this enemy, having Paula attack the same No Good Fly as Ness will
more likely be a waste of her turn.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 20 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 20 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
d)Putrid Moldyman

Damage: 26~38 HP (Ness)
26~38 HP (Paula)
Strategy

"bash" should defeat the Smilin' Sam. Defeat this enemy first if it
appears with a Handsome Tom.
-Ness: "bash"

h)Zombie Possessor
Attack
-Standard attack

16~20 HP (Paula)
-Possess
Effect: posses a single party member with a Tiny Li'l Ghost
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" and two hits from Paula's "bash" should
defeat the Zombie Possessor. One hit from Freeze[beta] will also defeat
this enemy.
This is one of the few enemies in the game that can possess a party
member with a Tiny Li'l Ghost, an enemy that can attack to inflict 1 HP
of damage or solidify a single party member. Possession can be cured by
talking to the blue haired healer at the Hospital and selecting the
"purify" option.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or below
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or below
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
First, go to the Drugstore and buy the Minor League Bat and the Thick Fry
Pan; sell Ness and Paula's previous weapons.
Next, call Escargo Express and store the Backstage Pass. This item will
no longer be used in the game.
After regaining control of Ness and Paula, approach the door and try to
open it.
EXTRAS
a)Insignificant Item
Note: This sidequest can only be completed after removing all the
monsters from Threed.
After the item is obtained and the monsters are gone from Threed, go back

you talk to the man and give him the Insignificant Item, he will give the
party a Magic Truffle in return.

if HP falls to 13 or lower

-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Spiteful Crow
Attacks
Strategy
About one hit from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Spiteful Crow.
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
Once you gain control of Jeff, attempt to walk out of his room. Tony,
Jeff's roommate, will wake up and join you.
Enter the room to the left of Jeff and Tony's room and open the presents
to obtain a bunch of Cookies. Cookies only recover 6 HP, but they can be
useful while Jeff is at a low level. Use this item after a battle if Jeff
loses some HP.
Walk downstairs to the first floor and enter the door on the left. Talk
to Maxwell, the man in this room, and he will give Jeff the Key to the
Locker.
Exit the room and enter the room on the right. Approach one of the lockers
and "use" the Key to the Locker. Although the Key will not work, it's
necessary to attempt to use it in order to progress in the game. Exit this
room and go back to Maxwell.
Maxwell will exchange the Key to the Locker for the Bad Key Machine. Go
back to the lockers and "use" the Bad Key Machine to open them and obtain
some items. The only item you are required to get is the Pop Gun, which is
located in the rightmost locker of the back row. You should also check the
leftmost locker of the front row and the leftmost locker of the back row
to obtain the Holmes Hat and the Broken Air Gun. Equip the Pop Gun and the
Holmes Hat before leaving the Boarding House.
Once outside of the Boarding House, walk east and enter the Drugstore.
Talk to the clerk and sell the Protractor, an item that has no practical
use whatsoever. The Ruler has a use later on in the game, but it can be
sold as well. The items being sold at this Drugstore cannot be bought
right now, assuming you do not resort to laborious methods. The earliest
these items can be bought is after Ness learns Teleport[alpha], but that
will not be for awhile. It is possible to accumulate money by battling the
enemies in the area and selling the items they drop, but I don't think the
rewards are worth the effort.
Before exiting the Drugstore, talk to the woman to the left. Answer "yes"
when prompted to obtain the Pak of Bubble Gum.
Next, talk to the monkey standing near the entrance and he will join Jeff.
The Bubble Monkey will follow Jeff around for awhile and will participate
a little in battle. His Offense is low, however, and he will often waste
his turns, but you need him to make it through Winters.
Exit the Drugstore and begin walking south. The only enemies you will
encounter are Runaway Dogs, Spiteful Crows, and Gruff Goats. The first two
should give you no problems, but the Gruff Goat can be tough. Try to keep
Jeff's HP above 13 when fighting them and recover with as many Cookies
as you need once the battle is over; save your more effective food items
for recovery during battle. There is a tent a little south of the
Drugstore where Jeff can rest to recover HP. Jeff should be able to
survive until he reaches the tent.
Keep walking south by following the wide open paths left and right. Soon,
you will reach a campsite located next to a body of water known as Lake
Tess. Enter the tent at the western end of the campsite, talk to the guy
inside, and answer "yes" when prompted to rest.
When Jeff wakes up, exit the tent and walk east to the spot of dirt on the
small peninsula sticking out into the lake.

ENEMIES
a)Attack Slug
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 3 HP
-Hypnosis[alpha]
Comments: Attack Slugs cannot use PSI for the first four rounds of
battle.
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
Only one hit from Jeff's "shoot" or about three hits from the Bubble
Monkey should defeat the Attack Slug. Defeat this enemy last if it
appears in a group.
If you want to level up Jeff, the Attack Slug is the best enemy to
fight. Stay near the entrance to the Fourth Sanctuary Cave and talk to
Brick Road when Jeff needs to recover HP.
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Cave Boy
Vulnerable: Fire
Resistant: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 18~23 HP
Comments: This attack is powerful, but it also has a pretty low accuracy
(about 40%).
Strategy
About nine hits from Jeff's "shoot" or six hits from Jeff's "shoot" and
one hit from a Bottle Rocket should defeat the Cave Boy.
Try to avoid fighting the Cave Boy at all costs. The Cave Boy moves
slower than Jeff outside of battle, so he should be easy to evade. If
you end up battling one, you should be able to win with just standard
attacks and possibly a Bottle Rocket if you have a Hamburger or a
Croissant. If you don't have either food item, try to run away or use a
Big Bottle Rocket.
c)Mad Duck
Attacks
-Fall down
Effect: none
Strategy
About three hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Mad Duck.
-Jeff: "shoot"
d)Rowdy Mouse
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 1 HP
10~15 HP if SMAAAASH!! hit (success rate is about 50%)
Comments: Rowdy Mouse will get a SMAAAASH!! hit about 50% of the time.
Other times, it will only inflict about 1 HP of damage or
miss.
Strategy
About two hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Rowdy Mouse. Be
sure that Jeff has at least 26 HP before engaging this enemy. Once you
obtain the Stun Gun at the end of Brick Road, only one hit from Jeff's
"shoot" should defeat this enemy. Defeat the Rowdy Mouse before any
Attack Slugs but after any Struttin' Evil Mushrooms it may appear with.
-Jeff: "shoot"
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 14~17 HP
-Be absentminded
Effect: none
Strategy
About two hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Struttin' Evil
Mushroom. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group.
f)Worthless Protoplasm
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 7~8 HP
Strategy
About two hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Worthless
Protopalsm.
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Brick Road
Once you regain control of Jeff, walk south and into the cave. This is
Brick Road, a simple maze where a few relatively weak enemies lurk. There
are a number of food items and tools available here and I recommend you
obtain all of them.
When you first enter the maze, there are three routes available to you.
The top route will lead to a Rowdy Mouse and a gift box containing a Bread
Roll. Fight the Rowdy Mouse and obtain the Bread Roll if you can. If Jeff
does not have any other food item, you may need to use the Bread Roll as
soon as the Rowdy Mouse is defeated, but at least Jeff will earn some
experience points.
The middle route will lead to a Mad Duck and a gift box containing an
Insecticide Spray. This item is useful against Red Antoids, an enemy that
you will encounter a little later in the game.
The bottom route is the "correct" path to take and will take you to
another fork. The path to the right will lead to a gift box containing a
Broken Iron, an item that can be fixed by Jeff into the Slime Generator.
The Slime Generator can solidify a target and be used an unlimited number
of times. It's usefulness is limited, but it's still good to have.
Go back to the junction and follow the left path. From here, the maze
should be pretty straightforward. There are two other gift boxes in this
dungeon, one containing a Croissant and the other containing a Stun Gun.
Obtain both and equip the Stun Gun.
After exiting the maze, talk to Brick Road and answer "yes" when prompted
to recover Jeff's HP. You can return to him at any time to rest.
Continue walking south and enter the next cave. This is the Fourth
Sanctuary Cave, a place the party will have to return to later. The
enemies here are not too difficult and should be easily defeated with a
few hits from Jeff's "shoot." If you want to level up Jeff, fight the
enemies near the entrance and return to Brick Road to recover.
When you enter the third section of the cave, climb up the first rope you
see to find a gift box containing a Cheap Bracelet.
Outside, the Bubble Monkey will notice a female monkey and walk away with
her, leaving Jeff's company.
WARNING: The Cave Boys that lurk in this area are very powerful and
require many hits from Jeff's "shoot" to defeat. Avoid them at
all costs. Luckily, they move slower than Jeff and are easy to
evade. If, by misfortune, you end up battling one, use the Bottle
Rocket to inflict extra damage and finish it off with standard
attacks. If you don't have enough food items to keep Jeff alive,
use a Big Bottle Rocket to win in one attack.
Do not go to the spot of dirt in the center of Stonehenge; the party will
come back here much later in the game. Walk south past Stonehenge to reach
Dr. Andonuts's lab.
Inside the lab, "check" the device that looks somewhat like a heater or a
furnace. This is the "Instant Revitalizing Device," a machine that will
fully recover all party members.
There is also a gift box upstairs containing a Broken Pipe, which can be
repaired into the Shield Killer (30 IQ needed). The Shield Killer can
remove any shield protecting a single enemy, but it periodically fails to
work. You can find another tool for Jeff later in the game that removes
everyone's shields, including any protecting the party, but always works.
I usually use the other tool and leave the Shield Killer.
Next, talk to Dr. Andonuts. It does not matter whether you answer "yes" or
"no" to his questions. After he is done talking, walk over to the Sky
Runner in the west side of the lab and approach it from the front. Jeff
should automatically get in.
After the lengthy scene, answer "yes" when prompted to have Jeff join Ness
and Paula; if you answer "no" you will just be prompted again. Approach
the door and "use" the Bad Key Machine to unlock it.
The Bad Key Machine and the Pak of Bubble Gum will no longer be used in
the game, so call Escargo Express and have them stored.

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
Once the party leaves the holding cell, go to the Drugstore and buy a Hard
Hat and a Copper Bracelet for Jeff. Sell the Pop Gun and the Defense Spray
if Jeff has them. Call Escargo Express and have them pick up the Bad Key
Machine and the Pak of Bubble Gum if you have not already done so.
Next, go the arms dealer behind the Pizza Shop and buy one or two Bottle
Rockets so that Jeff has two of these in his inventory. Buy the Toy Air
Gun only if Jeff does not have the Broken Air Gun.
b)Training Jeff
If Jeff has the Broken Air Gun, he will likely be able to repair it into
the Magnum Air Gun while he is being leveled up. Equip it on Jeff once it
becomes available.
Once Jeff is leveled up, rest at the Hotel and go to the Hospital if a
party member is possessed.
Walk south of the Pizza Shop and approach the large, purple tent from the
front. A monster's face should appear on the tent and attack the party.
This battle should not give you too much trouble. Have Paula use Fire
[beta] in every round and have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks.
Use Lifeup if a party member's HP falls to 100 or below (or in the
possible case of Paula, less than max). If Ness starts crying, either use
Healing[beta] on him or use PSI Rockin[beta].
Once the Boogey Tent is defeated, it will disappear and reveal a trash
can. Open the trash can and obtain the Jar of Fly Honey. This item is
needed to progress in the game, so hold on to it.
After defeating the Boogey Tent, walk north and past the circus tent. The
Apple Kid should call Ness once the party reaches the road in front of
the Hotel. About 5 seconds after the phone call, a Mach Pizza deliveryman
should approach Ness and give the party the Zombie Paper.
Enter the tent in central Threed and "use" the Zombie Paper. Go back to
the Hotel and rest.

ENEMIES
a)Armored Frog
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 29~42 HP (Ness)
26~34 HP (Paula)
29~42 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
If the Armored Frog appears alone, use Freeze[alpha] together with one
hit from Ness's "bash." If it appears in a group, use Freeze[beta] in
the first round to defeat it in one hit. Use Fire against this enemy
only if it is part of a long row. Defeat the Armored Frog only after any
Plain Crocodiles.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 80 or lower
-Jeff: "defend"

c)Farm Zombie
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 19~27 HP (Ness)
17~19 HP (Paula)
19~27 HP (Jeff)
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" together with one hit from either Paula or
Jeff's standard attack should defeat the Farm Zombie. Use Fire against
this enemy only if it's part of a large row. Heal any colds after the
battle is over. Defeat any Farm Zombies only before Black Antoids.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 60 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Fire[beta], if in a large row
-Jeff: "shoot"
d)Mini Barf
Recommended Level: 26
Vulnerable: Fire
Resistant: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 43~59 HP (Ness)
43~55 HP (Paula)
45~61 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
Do not heal a party member who is crying and do not use Freeze against
the Mini Barf, as it is resistant to the attack. Have Paula use Fire
[beta] instead, and use all of Jeff's Bottle Rockets (not the Big Bottle
Rocket).
If Jeff has the Slime Generator, have him use it each turn once all
Bottle Rockets are used up. The success rate of this item against the
Mini Barf is high enough to give you a good number of free rounds.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls below her max
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Paula: Fire[beta]
Attacks
-Standard Attack
Damage: 6~7 HP (Ness)
6~7 HP (Paula)
7~8 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
About one hit from Ness's "bash" or a hit from Paula and Jeff's standard
attacks should defeat the No Good Fly. Try to split up Ness's attack and
Paula and Jeff's attacks when facing multiple No Good Flies to defeat two
targets in one round.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 14 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 14 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 16 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
f)Plain Crocodile
Vulnerable: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 37~48 HP (Ness)
32~39 HP (Paula)
37~48 HP (Jeff)
-Biting Attack
Damage: 65~100 HP (Ness)
73~80 HP (Paula)
65~100 HP (Jeff)
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
A hit from Freeze[alpha] and a hit from Ness's "bash" should defeat the
Plain Crocodile. If this enemy appears in a group, have Paula use Freeze
[beta] to defeat it in one hit. Defeat this enemy first in all battles.
The Plain Crocodile moves slower than the party outside of battle, so it
is possible to evade it. If Ness and Paula are low on PP, it may be
better to avoid this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls below her max
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Jeff: "shoot"
g)Red Antoid
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 17~23 HP (Ness)
12~16 HP (Paula)
17~23 HP (Jeff)
-Defense Down[alpha]
Effect: reduce a single party member's Defense by about 5%
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" or a hit from both Paula and Jeff's standard
attacks should defeat the Red Antoid. If multiple Red Antoids appear,
split up Ness's attack and Paula and Jeff's attacks in order to defeat
two targets in one round.
One hit from Paula's Fire[beta] will also defeat the Red Antoid, though
you should only use Fire when facing a large row of enemies. Defeat Red
Antoids after any Armored Frogs or Hard Crocodiles.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 75 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 80 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Fire[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
h)Urban Zombie
Attacks
-Standard Attack: 19~28 HP (Ness)
19~28 HP (Paula)
19~28 HP (Jeff)
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: nothing
Strategy
About one hit from Ness's "bash" together with a hit from either Paula
or Jeff's standard attack should defeat the Urban Zombie. Heal any colds
after the battle is over. If this enemy appears in a group, attack it
after defeating any Zombie Dogs or Zombie Possessors and before
attacking any No Good Flies.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP reaches 56 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 56 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 56 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
i)Violent Roach
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 19~23 HP (Ness)
13~16 HP (Paula)
19~23 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
One hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the
Violent Roach.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 46 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 32 or lower
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 46 or lower

-Jeff: "shoot"
j)Zombie Dog
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 31~46 HP (Ness)
31~46 HP (Paula)
37~50 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
If the Zombie Dog appears alone, you should be able to defeat it within
two rounds by just using each party member's standard attack. A hit from
Freeze[alpha] and a hit from Ness or Jeff's standard attack should also
defeat this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 72 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 72 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 90 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[alpha]
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
k)Zombie Possessor
Vulnerable: Freeze, Flash
Resistant: Fire
Attack
-Standard attack
Damage: 16~20 HP (Ness)
16~20 HP (Paula)
16~20 HP (Jeff)
-Possess
Effect: posses a single party member with a Tiny Li'l Ghost
Strategy
About one hit from Ness's "bash" together with a hit from either Paula
or Jeff's standard attack should defeat the Zombie Possessor. One hit
from Freeze[beta] will also defeat this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or below
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or below
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or below
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
If Ness has not learned Healing[beta], buy a few Refreshing Herbs from the
Drugstore and use it when a party member becomes poisoned. If the party
does not have any food items, buy about three Calorie Sticks from the
Drugstore as well.
It will also be helpful for Jeff to bring along at least two Bottle
Rockets. Buy a few from the arms dealer behind the Pizza Shop if you need
any more. There is also a Teddy Bear contained in a trash can in the
northeast area of town, so obtain it if you want some extra protection for
the rough trip ahead.
Once the zombies are trapped in the circus tent, go to the northwest
graveyard and climb down the ladder that was previously blocked by the
two zombies.
The passage itself is very linear, and you should have no trouble
navigating through it. The difficulty comes from the powerful enemies that
lurk here and how quickly Ness and Paula's PP can be drained if you are
not careful. Use a PSI Caramel on Ness if you have any when his PP runs
low or use food items, such as Calorie Sticks and Croissants, as a
substitute for Lifeup. If you encounter any Zombie Dogs, use Freeze[alpha]
or [beta] against them in the first round to defeat them quickly. You
should also use Freeze against Zombie Possessors if you do not want to be
possessed.
You will come across a couple of caskets as you travel through the
passage. The first casket contains a Skip Sandwich DX, an item that
recovers 6~7 HP and increases walking speed for about 20 seconds. The
second casket contains a Silver Bracelet. Obtain this item and equip it on
Paula.
At the end of the passage, the party will encounter the Mini Barf. The
Mini Barf is not too difficult to defeat, but you may use up much of Ness
and Paula's PP during the battle. Have Ness and Jeff use their standard
attacks and have Paula use Fire[beta]. If Jeff has any Bottle Rockets, use
them against the Mini Barf (do not use any Big Bottle Rockets). Also, if
Jeff has the Slime Generator, have him use it in each round once all of
his Bottle Rockets are used up. Do not use Healing on a party member who
is crying and use Lifeup if anyone's HP falls below 100 or maximum,
whichever is lower.
c)Grapefruit Falls
A Magic Butterfly should spawn near the old man, so exit and reenter the
are if you do not see one. As you travel along the river you will come
across two gift boxes. The first contains a Bomb, an item is not that
useful. If you obtain it, use it against the enemies here. The second gift
box contains a Protein Drink, which recovers 80 HP.
The enemies here can be very powerful. The Red Antoids and the Farm
Zombies can be defeated with standard "bash" attacks, but the Plain
Crocodile and the Armored Frog can pose quite a threat. Use Freeze
against these two enemies to defeat them quickly. Be liberal with your
use of Lifeup when fighting the Plain Crocodile and the Armored Frog and
use food items if Ness's PP gets low.
Continue walking north along the river and the party will eventually come
across a cave. Walk a little east into the cave to find an entry that
leads to a gift box containing a Bottle Rocket. It is not necessary to
obtain this item, but since the Violent Roaches here are easy to defeat,
go ahead and take it. Save this item for the Third Sanctuary boss battle,
which is coming up soon. Continue walking east and the party will enter
Saturn Valley.

ENEMIES
a)Farm Zombie
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 19~27 HP (Ness)
17~19 HP (Paula)
19~27 HP (Jeff)
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" together with one hit from either Paula or
Jeff's standard attack will defeat the Farm Zombie. Use Fire against
this enemy only if it appears with a large row of foes. Heal any colds
after the battle is over.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 60 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Fire[beta], if in a large row
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Foppy
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 11~14 HP (Ness)
8~9 HP (Paula)
11~14 HP (Jeff)
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Comments: The Foppy cannot use PSI for the first four rounds of battle.
-Brainshock[alpha]
-Be absentminded
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" or a hit from Paula and Jeff's standard
attacks should defeat the Foppy. If multiple Foppies appear, split up
Ness's attack and Paula and Jeff's attacks to defeat two targets in one
round.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 45 or below when
facing a large group
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 45 or below when
facing a large group
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 45 or below when
facing a large group
-Paula: "bash"
PSI Magnet[alpha] or [omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Master Belch
Recommended Level: 28
Vulnerable: Hypnosis
Attacks
Strategy
Use the Jar of Fly Honey in the first round. Use standard attacks
thereafter or have Paula use Freeze[beta] to end the battle quickly.
Master Belch cannot be defeated unless you use the Jar of Fly Honey.
-Ness: "bash"
Healing[beta] on any party member who is nauseous
Lifeup[alpha] if Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb is not
available and the nauseous party member's HP falls below 48
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 16~19 HP (Ness)
14~16 HP (Paula)
16~19 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
A hit from Paula and Jeff's standard attack should defeat the Mostly Bad
Fly. Ness should be able to inflict just barely enough damage to defeat
this enemy with a single "bash" attack. If the party has any leftover
Insecticide Sprays, use it when fighting multiple Mostly Bad Flies.
This enemy occasionally appears with the Slimy Little Pile. Paralyze or
defeat the Slimy Little Pile before attacking the Mostly Bad Fly.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 40 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 32 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "bash"
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 32~46 HP (Ness)
32~40 HP (Paula)
32~46 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
If this enemy appears with another Slimy Little Pile, use Paralysis
[alpha] on one and Freeze[beta] on the other. When facing three or
more Slimy Little Piles, use Fire[beta] together with about a hit from
both Ness and Jeff's standard attacks to defeat one in each round.
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Saturn Valley
Although this place may seem odd at first, it will eventually become the
party's home away from home since the hotel and hospital services here
are free. When the party arrives here, enter the first house on the left
to rest and recover. If any party members are unconscious or possessed,
enter the house on the right and the "doctor" inside will restore the
entire party for free.
Enter the cave north of the hotel and talk to the Mr. Saturn that tells
you to wait three minutes behind the waterfall in Grapefruit Falls (an
ominous tone should play after talking to this Mr. Saturn). If this Mr.
Saturn is not talked to, waiting three minutes behind the waterfall will
do nothing.
Before leaving the village, climb the ladder leading out of the cave and
climb the next ladder outside to enter the house. This is the Saturn
Valley Drugstore. The strange machine on the left side of the room is the
ATM, so withdraw some money if needed (the party will need at least $1755
to buy the optimum equipment being sold here). Talk to the Mr. Saturn
standing south of the entrance and sell any unneeded items and old
equipment. Buy Great Charms, Silver Bracelets, and a Red Ribbon and equip
them. Do not buy any Bionic Slingshots; this weapon has a lower accuracy
than the party's standard weapons and is not very reliable. If Ness has
not learned Healing[beta] yet, buy a Refreshing Herb from the other Mr.
Saturn in preparation for the upcoming area.
b)Belch's Factory
Be sure to take the Jar of Fly Honey with you (it's needed to defeat the
upcoming boss). Exit Saturn Valley and go back to Grapefruit Falls.
When you reach the waterfall, walk west behind the water and press up on
the d-pad. An unknown voice should tell you to "Say the password!" If the
dialogue window only says "...", the party needs to go back to Saturn
Valley and talk to the Mr. Saturn mentioned above. Leave the party
standing there for three minutes without pushing the d-pad while waiting;
otherwise, you will probably have to start over. Pushing any other button
should not reset the timer.
Once the unknown voice says, "Okay...you may enter," the party will go
inside the base. Note that you do not have to wait three minutes again in
order to reenter the base if you leave.
Inside the base, a Slimly Little Pile will ask you if the party has
brought any Fly Honey. Answer "yes" to avoid a battle. If you answer "no"
and fight this enemy, use Paralysis[alpha] on it in the first round to
prevent it from making the party cry. Freeze[alpha] or [beta] is also
effective.
Walk a little more to the right and the party will come across a ladder
and a door. The door leads to a trash can containing a Bomb, an item that
is not very helpful. If you want to obtain this item, you will likely have
to fight three or four Farm Zombies.
Climb down the ladder to continue through the base. There is likely to be
a swarm of Foppies at the bottom, but these enemies should be easy to
defeat with standard attacks. If Paula is low on PP, use PSI Magnet[alpha]
or [omega] to recover a substantial amount of PP. If you want to level up
the party, this enemy is the best one to fight. Stay close to the first
ladder, as many Foppies spawn in this area.
Walk a little to the left to find a second ladder, at the bottom of which
are two trash cans that are usually guarded by three or four Farm Zombies.
The trash cans contain an IQ Capsule and the Broken Laser. Try to obtain
both. Give the Broken Laser to Jeff and use the IQ Capsule immediately on
Ness or Paula (to increase their max PP) or Jeff (to help him repair
items). I suggest Paula, since she relies the most on PSI attacks.
Continue walking west and the party will come across a third ladder. This
ladder leads up to a room containing three trash cans that are usually
guarded by two or three Mostly Bad Flies and possibly a Slimy Little
Pile. The trash cans contain a Vital Capsule, an HP-Sucker, and a Calorie
Stick. If you get the Vital Capsule, use it immediately to increase a
party member's max HP (I suggest you give it to Paula). The HP-Sucker is
a tool for Jeff that drains a portion of an enemy's HP and gives it to
Jeff. It is not a terribly helpful item, since the amount of HP it drains
is small, but it can be sold for $400.
Continue walking west and another Slimy Little Pile will talk
to and attack the party. Use Paralysis[alpha] or Freeze[beta] to defeat
it.
Master Belch will be waiting in the next room. Talk to it to start the
battle, and use the Jar of Fly Honey in the first round to render it
unable to attack in subsequent rounds. Unfortunately, Master Belch will
use his nauseating breath attack at least once even if the Jar of Fly
Honey is used before it attacks. Have Ness use Healing[beta] to cure the
affected character. If Ness has not learned Healing[beta] yet, use a
Refreshing Herb or use Lifeup to keep the affected character alive. Use
standard attacks or Freeze to win the fight.
Once Master Belch is defeated, enter the doorway it was blocking and
walk through the cave. The party will end up on the upper area of Saturn
Valley near a hot spring. The hot spring will be able to cure all party
members of any status effect but will not recover any HP or PP. If a
party member is nauseous, enter the hot spring and walk around in it
until the game tells you the party is cleansed. Go to the Hotel to rest
and recover.
EXTRAS
a)Coffee Break
Purpose: read some text that talks about the party's adventure; can only
be done after defeating Master Belch
Standing next to the hot spring is a Mr. Saturn that will offer the party
some coffee. If you answer "yes" to its offer, a funky background will
fill the screen and some scrolling text will appear. The text has a
colloquial tone, and the speaker sounds as though he is talking to Ness.
It begins by briefly summarizing Ness's adventure up to this point of the
game and warns of the difficulties to come, advising Ness to keep up his
courage and have faith in his goal. There is no need to read this speech
of sorts, but it is interesting nonetheless. Unfortunately, it is rather
long and you'll have to sit through the whole thing if you decide to read
it.

ENEMIES
a)Ranboob
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 28~42 HP (Ness)
9~10 HP (Paula)
28~42 HP (Jeff)
-Shield[alpha]
Comments: Use Paula's Freeze or Fire to bypass a Shield.
Strategy
If the Ranboob appears alone, a few hits from each party member's
standard attack should defeat it within two rounds. If appears in a
group, one hit from Paula's Freeze[beta] along with a hit from Ness and
Jeff's standard attacks should defeat this enemy. Defeat the Ranboob
last in all battles. Use PSI Magnet[omega] if Paula's PP is low.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 20 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 70 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
Fire[beta], if facing a large row
PSI Magnet[omega] or [alpha] if PP is low
-Jeff: "shoot"
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 10~13 HP (Ness)
1 HP (Paula)
10~13 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
A hit from any two party member's standard attacks or one use of Freeze
[alpha] should defeat the Struttin' Evil Mushroom. One hit from Fire
[beta] along with a hit from any party member's standard attack should
also suffice. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group. Heal any
poisoned party members after the battle is over.
The Struttin' Evil Mushroom is probably the most dangerous enemy in this
area, if only because of its ability to mushroomize the party. Don't
hesitate to use Fire[beta] or Freeze[alpha] in order to defeat it
quickly. If this enemy manages to mushroomize two or more party members,
it may be a good idea to return to Saturn Valley and recover in the hot
spring.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness and Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 25 or
lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[alpha]
Fire[beta], if facing large row
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Tough Mobile Sprout
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 16~19 HP (Ness)
1 HP (Paula)
16~19 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Strategy
A hit from any two party member's standard attacks should defeat the
Tough Mobile Sprout. Use Fire[beta] only if it appears in a large group.
Defeat this enemy after any Struttin' Evil Mushrooms and before any
Ranboobs. Use PSI Magnet[omega] if Paula's PP is low.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness and Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 36 or
lower
-Paula: "bash"
Fire[beta]
PSI Magnet[omega] or [alpha] if PP is low
-Jeff: "shoot"
Recommended Level: 29
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 56~62 HP (Ness)
35~37 HP (Paula)
39~50 HP (Jeff)
-Flash[alpha]
-PSI Shield[alpha]
-Paralysis[alpha]
Comments: This attack should not affect you if the party is equipped
with Great Charms.
-Glare with its eerie eyes
Effect: diamondize a single party member
Comments: Use a Secret Herb on a diamondized party member to revive him
or her.
Strategy
Have Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] in the first round to take care of the
two Tough Mobile Sprouts, and have Jeff use a Big Bottle Rocket and any
Bottle Rockets if he has any. Paula should use Fire[beta] as much as
possible while Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks in subsequent
rounds. Freeze[beta] is also somewhat effective against the Trillionage
Sprout, though it inflicts about 30~50 HP less damage than Fire[beta].
-Paula: Fire[beta]
"defend", if mushroomized
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
Go to the Drugstore and buy two Secret Herbs in preparation for the
sanctuary boss; have two different party members carry one each. Also,
call Escargo Express and have them pick up the Jar of Fly Honey, as it
will no longer be used in the game (you might have to be in the lower area
of Saturn Valley for the Escargo Express deliveryman to reach the party).
Next, enter the cave below the Drugstore and talk to one of the Mr.
Saturns. It will give the party a Cup of Lifenoodles, a Mr. Saturn Coin,
and a Stag Beetle. I recommend you equip the Mr. Saturn Coin on Paula and
give the Cup of Lifenoodles to Ness. The Stag Beetle is not very useful
and you can sell it if you want.
The Third Sanctuary Cave is located near the hot spring to the right of
the exit from Belch's Factory. The cave is pretty short and is easy to
navigate, but the enemies there are pretty powerful and tend to fight in
groups. Luckily, most of these plant-like creatures are vulnerable to Fire
and always arrange themselves in a single row.
Always defeat any Struttin' Evil Mushrooms first in any battle they appear
in. One hit from Fire[beta] is usually enough to defeat one, but have
another party member target it with a standard attack just in case; one
hit from Freeze[alpha] or a hit from any two party member's standard
attacks should defeat it as well.
The Tough Mobile Sprouts and the Ranboobs can be taken care of with
standard "bash" attacks, though you should use Fire[beta] if a large group
of them appears. Try to defeat any Tough Mobile Sprouts before attacking
any Ranboobs, as Tough Mobile Sprouts can drain much needed PP from Ness
and Paula with their PSI Magnet[alpha] and spawn more Tough Mobile
Sprouts by sowing its seeds.
As mentioned above, the path to the Third Sanctuary Location is short and
straightforward. The first area is the hardest, as a large group of
enemies is likely to be found here. If a party member gets mushroomized in
this cave, it may be a good idea to return to the hot spring and recover.
Outside the end of the cave is an open area. Magic Butterflys often spawn
here, so be on the lookout. Continue walking south, turn east at the bend,
and enter the last cave.
The gift box here contains a Coin of Slumber. This item does not provide
as much of a defense boost as the Mr. Saturn Coin, so equip it on Jeff.
Walk east to find the Shining Spot.
If no party member is mushroomized when the party gets to the Shining
Spot, the battle against the Trillionage Sprout should be fairly easy.
Have Paula use Fire[beta] and Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] in the first
round to take care of the Tough Mobile Sprouts. Have Paula use Fire[beta]
in subsequent turns and Ness use "bash" and Lifeup as necessary. Use any
Big Bottle Rockets and Bottle Rockets as soon as possible and have Jeff
"shoot" thereafter. If a party member becomes diamondized, use a Secret
Herb.
If Ness is mushroomized, have him only use Lifeup when necessary and use
"defend" in all other rounds. If Paula is mushroomized, have her "defend";
use PSI Rockin[beta] and [alpha] to take care of the Tough
Mobile Sprouts and a Sudden Guts Pill on Ness while he "bashes" in
subsequent rounds. If Jeff is mushroomized, don't use a Big Bottle Rocket
and just have him use the HP-Sucker or "defend." All in all, the worst
character to be mushroomized is Paula, since she is able to provide most
of the offensive power in this fight. If two or more party members are
mushroomized, you can either go back to Saturn Valley and recover, or you
can just risk the fight and rely mostly on standard attacks. Once the
Trillionage Sprout is defeated, record the third melody.
With Master Belch defeated, Threed is now back to normal and the tunnels
leading out of town are no longer be infested by ghosts. Return to Threed
and take the bus going east out of town (you may also want to do the
Insignificant Item sidequest now for a Magic Truffle; see the "Extras"
section below). If you don't want to take the bus, you can also just walk
through the tunnel to the east. As far as I know, there is nothing
important to do in Threed once it has returned to normal.
EXTRAS
a)Insignificant Item
If you are the type of player that tries to talk to everyone in an RPG,
then you may have heard a man in Twoson Hospital talk about an item he
left in Threed Hospital. To find this item, go to the second floor of the
Hospital in Threed and enter the room on the left. Approach the drawer and
"check" it to obtain the Insignificant Item. This item does absolutely
nothing and sells for only $1. After the item is obtained and the monsters
are gone from Threed, go back to Twoson Hospital and enter the room on the
left on the second floor. If you talk to the man and give him the
Insignificant Item, he will give the party a Magic Truffle, an item that
recovers about 80 PP.

ENEMIES
a)Bad Buffalo
Attacks
Strategy
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Crested Booka
Vulnerable: Hypnosis
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 37~49 HP (Ness)
33~34 HP (Paula)
37~49 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 40 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
-Paula: "bash
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Criminal Caterpillar
If you see this enemy, always chase after it. A victory against the
Criminal Caterpillar will yield a very large amount of experience points
and will almost always level up a party member. It looks like a small
green worm outside of battle.
The Criminal Caterpillar appears rarely and always runs away from the
party, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an instant
victory. You will likely never have to face this enemy in battle, though
if you do, have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against its Fire.
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 30~42 HP (Ness)
23~25 HP (Paula)
30~42 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Strategy
A hit from any two party member's standard attack should defeat the Cute
Li'l UFO. Defeat it only before any paralyzed Bad Buffalos and Smilin'
Spheres.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 50 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 30 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 50 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
e)Desert Wolf
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 50~60 HP (Ness)
37~48 HP (Paula)
50~60 HP (Jeff)
-Take a bite using its poisonous fangs
Damage: 50~60 HP (Ness)
37~48 HP (Paula)
50~60 HP (Jeff)
Effect: poison a single target
Strategy
A hit from all three party member's standard attacks should defeat the
Desert Wolf. If this enemy appears in a group, defeat it in one hit
with Freeze[beta] in the first round. Heal any poisoned party members
after the battle is over.
Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 50 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta], if facing a group
Jeff: "shoot"
This little guy will tend to bother you behind the Drugstore.
g)Skelpion
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 18~19 HP (Ness)
8~10 HP (Paula)
18~19 HP (Jeff)
-Thunder[alpha]
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
About one hit from Ness or Jeff's standard attack or one use of Freeze
[alpha] should defeat the Skelpion. I recommend you keep the Franklin
Badge in Paula's inventory to protect her from Thunder[alpha]. If this
enemy appears in a group, attack it after defeating any Desert Wolves
and before attacking any other. Heal any poisoned party member after
the battle is over.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 50 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 50 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 50 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[alpha]
-Jeff: "shoot"
h)Smilin' Sphere
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 33~38 HP (Ness)
22~24 HP (Paula)
33~38 HP (Jeff)
-Fire[alpha]
Comments: Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against this
attack.
-Laugh maniacally
Effect: makes a single target feel strange
Strategy
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against
the Smilin' Sphere's Fire[alpha]. A hit from each party member's
standard attack should yield victory. Always defeat the Smilin' Sphere
last in order to minimize damage when it explodes.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 60 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 60 or lower
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
When you reach Dusty Dunes Desert, go to the Drugstore and buy new
equipment for the party. Get the Mr. Baseball Bat for Ness, the Deluxe
Fry Pan for Paula, and the Coin of Slumber for whomever needs it. If Jeff
does not have the Laser Gun or the Broken Laser, it may be a good idea
to buy a Zip Gun from the Arms Dealer standing north of the Drugstore (if
Jeff was equipped with the Magnum Air Gun, call Escargo Express and have
them pick it up). The party should need about $2600 to be optimally
equipped.
As you walk through the desert, you may notice the screen periodically
flashing red. This is an indication that somebody in your party is
suffering from sunstroke, which causes the ailing character to suffer 2
HP of damage every 4 seconds outside of battle and 4 HP of damage per
turn in battle. The Wet Towel sold at the Drugstore can cure a single
case of sunstroke, though Healing[alpha] can cure sunstroke as well and
there is a shack in the desert where the party can rest and recover HP and
PP.
With heavy traffic blocking the road, the party will have no choice but
to walk through the desert. The only thing you'll have to do here is talk
to the miner located in the southern region of the desert and give him a
food item. Just follow the rocks lining the southern edge of the desert
and you should come across him and his shack. If you follow this path,
the party should also find a gift box containing a Big Bottle Rocket;
obtain it and give it to Jeff. The man inside the shack will allow the
party to rest for free.
The enemies here should not give you too much trouble. Use Freeze to
defeat Skelpions and Desert Wolves quickly and Paralysis on Bad Buffalos
to incapacitate them. Also, be sure to defeat any Smilin' Spheres last in
battle, as they will explode when defeated and can inflict heavy damage.
Use Paula's PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against the Smilin' Sphere's Fire.
NOTE: The Criminal Caterpillar is another enemy that can be found in the
desert. It appears rarely and always runs away from the party, but
defeating it will usually provide enough experience points to level
up somebody. The Criminal Caterpillar looks like a small green worm
outside of battle, and since it's easy to approach from behind
you'll likely get an instant victory if you catch it.
If you want to explore a bit, there are a few extra things the party can
do here. There are some gift boxes scattered about the desert, though
most of them don't contain any important or very helpful items. There are
some interesting characters the party can meet, including a sunbathing
couple, a few monkeys, and a black sesame seed and a white sesame seed
with a troubled relationship. The party can also search for a contact
lens someone lost in the desert and return it to its owner in Fourside
for a Pair of Dirty Socks (see Extras section below for details). All in
all, however, there is not a whole lot in the desert that is worth your
time, so you should just give the miner a food item and proceed to
Fourside.
The tunnel to Fourside is at the end of the road through the desert in
the southeast corner of the area.

WALKTHROUGH
There is not a whole lot for the party to do on their first visit to
Fourside. It might be a good idea to talk to the dealer in the northern
part of town and buy a Broken Gadget ($109) for Jeff. Jeff will likely not
be able to repair this item now, but you may want to hold on to it until
he can. You can also visit Pokey in the Monotoli Building, but you'll get
nothing for doing so.

Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 35~45 HP (Ness)
30~40 HP (Paula)
35~45 HP (Jeff)
-Paralysis[alpha]
Comments: This attack should not affect you if the party is equipped
with Great Charms.
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Strategy
A hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the
Gigantic Ant within three rounds. You can win within one round with a
hit from Freeze[alpha] and Ness and Jeff's standard attacks.
If Paula runs low on PP while in the mine, use Paula's PSI Magnet
against the Titanic Ant to recover her PP. Have Ness paralyze the
Gigantic Ant or have Jeff use the Slime Generator in each round while
Paula uses PSI Magnet until she has recovered enough PP.
-Ness: "bash"
Paralysis[alpha], if you want to recover Paula's PP
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 90 or lower

50~60 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
-Shield[beta]
Comments: This enemy has a Shield up from the beginning of the battle.
Avoid using standard attacks and rely on Freeze instead.
Strategy
About two hits from Freeze[beta] or one hit from Freeze[gamma] should
defeat the Guardian Digger. Have Ness use Lifeup to recover anyone whose
HP is less than 100 and have Jeff use the Slime Generator in each turn
if he has it; otherwise, have him defend. Don't use standard attacks.
-Ness: "defend"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Jeff: "defend"
Slime Generator
c)Mad Duck
These guys are only a minor nuisance. They do not inflict much damage, but
their PP affecting attacks can be annoying. Attack them only after
defeating any other enemies the Mad Duck may appear with.
d)Noose Man
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 25~40 HP (Ness)
19~21 HP (Paula)
25~40 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
A hit from Ness and Jeff's standard attacks should defeat the Noose Man.
If a group of these enemies appear, one use of Paula's Fire[beta]
followed by a hit from a party member's standard attack should defeat
this enemy. Only attack this enemy after defeating anything other than a
Mad Duck.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 50 or lower

also defeat this enemy. Be sure to heal any poisoned party member after
the battle is over.

-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
Upon reaching the mine, you should notice that the hole has gotten much
bigger. If it is not, give the miner a food item and/or return to
Fourside and talk to the theater owner in Topolla theater. Before
entering the mine, be sure that the party has max HP and PP (you can rest
in the shack for free). Also, if you obtained an Exit Mouse previously in
the game and gave it to Escargo Express, have it delivered to the party
and hold on to it while going through the mine. If you do not have an Exit
Mouse available, one can be obtained in the center of the mine.
The main objective here is to defeat five moles located in various parts
of the mine. You do not have to fight them in any order and despite what
they say, they are all of the same strength. The main problem with
navigating this mine is PP preservation. If you have any extra food items
in your inventory, use those instead of Lifeup, and return to the shack
outside with an Exit Mouse if Ness's PP runs low. Have Paula use PSI
Magnet against Gigantic Ants and the moles if you ever get the chance. If
Ness has enough PP, you can try paralyzing a Gigantic Ant and using PSI
Magnet repeatedly until enough PP is recovered.
Upon entering the mine, walk all the way north until the party reaches a
ladder. Go down this ladder, walk west and fight the first mole. These
moles have high offensive power, but should not be too difficult. They
have a Shield up from the beginning of the battle, so do not use any
standard attacks. Instead, have Paula use her strongest Freeze attack.
Ness should use Lifeup to keep everyone's HP above 100 and have Jeff use
his Slime Generator in each round if it is available. You should be able
to defeat these moles within two rounds.
Once this first mole is defeated, obtain the IQ Capsule found in the gift
box use it on Paula or Jeff (I recommend Paula). Go up the ladder to the
west and walk as far south as you can. The path should then bend up
northwest. Follow this path and the party should come across a gift box
containing a Big Bottle Rocket; obtain it and give it to Jeff. Continue
walking as far north as you can and go down the ladder to find the second
mole.
Defeat the mole and obtain the Coin of Defense from the gift box; equip it
on Jeff (or Paula if she does not have the Mr. Saturn Coin). Walk west and
go up the ladder. Follow the path south and the party should come across a
junction; the path leading east is a short one and leads to a gift box
containing a Teddy Bear. This item can be useful here so obtain it. Follow
the junction south and eventually the party will reach the center of the
mine.
If Ness's PP is low at this point, obtain an Exit Mouse and return to the
miner's shack outside to rest. Return to this location once you have done
so (from the entrance, turn west at the first junction and then south at
the next junction). Go down the south passage. On the way, the party will
come across a gift box containing a Bomb. This item is not all that useful
at this point of the game, so go ahead and leave it. Continue following
the path and eventually the party will reach the third mole. Obtain the
Luck Capsule and the Platinum Band after the battle, and equip the
Platinum Band on Paula.
Go back to the center of the mine and enter the north path to reach the
fourth mole. Defeat this mole and obtain the Guts Capsule located behind
it. Use the capsule on Ness. Take the Secret Herb located in this area as
well.
Return to the center of the mine and this time go through the southwest
passage. On the way the party will come across a ladder leading down to a
gift box containing a Super Bomb. It is not a really helpful item, but it
inflicts pretty good damage, so go ahead an obtain it if you want to.
Continue following the passage west and the party will encounter the
final mole. When all the moles are defeated, the music in the mine should
change to that of the Dusty Dunes Desert. The gift box behind this mole
is a PSI Caramel, which I do not think is worth obtaining.
After defeating the five moles, return to the surface and talk to the
miner. Go to the bus stop near the Dusty Dunes Desert Drugstore and take a
bus to Fourside. On the way, one of the miners should drive up behind the
bus and give the party a Diamond.
Once in Fourside, go the theater owner in Topolla Theater and "use" the
Diamond while standing next to her. The Runaway Five will enter the room
expressing their happiness and go off to do their last show. Enter the
music hall to watch this last performance and then leave the theater.

-Brainshock[alpha]
Strategy
The key to this fight is speed. Have Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] and Jeff
use a Big Bottle Rocket to win this battle in one round. Just make sure
that Ness and Jeff are at max HP before the battle starts.
If you don't have a Big Bottle Rocket available, conserve Ness's PP for
Lifeup and have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks.
b)Musica
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 50~55 HP (Ness)
30~35 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
As long as Ness or Jeff has the Franklin Badge, using only standard
attacks against the Musica should suffice. Don't hesitate to use PSI
Rockin[beta] if you're facing a group or otherwise get into trouble.
Attack this enemy only after defeating any Mystical Records and Scalding
Coffee Cups.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta], if facing a group
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower if he
has the Franklin Badge

recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls below max
-Jeff: "shoot"
Vulnerable: Freeze
Attacks
Strategy
A hit from Ness and Jeff's standard attacks should defeat the Scalding
Coffee Cup. Use PSI Rockin[alpha] or [beta] if this enemy appears in a
group. Defeat this enemy first before focusing your attack on any other.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[alpha] or [beta], if facing a group
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls below max
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
Before going any further, I strongly suggest you transfer some of Paula's
goods to Ness or Jeff's inventory. In particular, you should give the Mr.
Saturn Coin, the Platinum Band, and the Franklin Badge to Ness or Jeff.
It is probably better to give Jeff the best equipment to help him
survive--give him the Franklin Badge, the Mr. Saturn Coin, and the
Platinum Band and have Ness equip the Coin of Defense. Try not to sell
anything you might need later, however, since this is only a temporary
setup.
b)Mook Spook
The Fourside Dept. Store will open once the Runaway Five is free. Make
sure that the party is at max HP and PP and enter the store.
There are a few things you should buy in the Dept. Store. First, go to the
arms dealer on the second floor and get a Hyper Beam for Jeff. If Jeff
does not have at least two Big Bottle Rockets in his inventory, buy one or
two of those as well. Next, go to the Tool Shop on the third floor and buy
whatever armor you may need for Ness and Jeff (most likely a Gold Bracelet
for Ness). Don't buy anything for Paula. Altogether, you will need about
about $3600 to buy what you need. Walk back to the entrance of the Store.
Once the lights go out, head to the fourth floor of the building. On the
way the party will encounter some powerful enemies that can be difficult
to handle if you did not properly prepare Ness and Jeff. Luckily, these
enemies can be evaded; the gift boxes can only move in a straight line and
can be avoided by moving Ness and Jeff out of their line of movement.
After that, you can try to encounter them from the back to get a surprise
opening attack or continue on your way. Keep in mind that if you get a
green swirl, you are guaranteed to be successful if you choose the "Run
Away" command in the first round.
Always keep Ness and Jeff's HP at or near max while going up the Dept.
Store. If you face a group of two or more enemies, do not hesitate to use
PSI Rocking[beta]. Otherwise, use standard attacks and Lifeup for
recovery. Always defeat any Scalding Coffee Cups first and Mystical
Records second.
Once in the fourth floor office, talk to the creature behind the desk to
start the battle. Try to defeat the Dept. Store Spook as quickly as
possible. One use of PSI Rockin[beta] and a Big Bottle Rocket should be
enough to win in one round. If the boss survives, use standard attacks to
finish it off.
After the Department Store returns to normal, go back to the arms dealer
to buy a Big Bottle Rocket to replace the one you used. At this point,
you will probably want to go to the Hotel and rest. Do so before moving
on in the game.

10~20 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
You should be able to win within three rounds using Ness and Jeff's
standard attacks. Try to take advantage of the rolling HP counter when
facing the Enraged Fire Plug. If your party takes mortal damage but you
feel like you can end the battle before the HP counter reaches 0,
continue using standard attacks instead of recovering with Lifeup. If
this enemy appears in a group, defeat it first.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls below max
-Jeff: "shoot"

Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 60~80 HP (Ness)
55~75 HP (Jeff)
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
-Paralysis[alpha]
Strategy
Equip Ness with the Night Pendant before fighting the Mani-Mani Statue.
Have Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] and Jeff use a Big Bottle Rocket in the
first round. Use PSI Rockin[beta] and Jeff's "shoot" thereafter to win
in about two more rounds. If Jeff becomes paralyzed, use a Secret Herb
after the battle to cure him.
If Jeff does not have a Big Bottle Rocket available, save Ness's PP for
Lifeup and have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks. Use a Secret
Herb on a paralyzed party member as soon as possible. Do not hesitate to
use a Cup of Lifenoodles or a Horn of Life to revive an unconscious
party member.
e)Robo-Pump
Attacks
-Whisper "3..."
Effect: none
-Murmur "2..."
Effect: none
-Mutter "1..."
Effect: none
-Say "tick-tock"
Effect: none
Comments: The Robo-Pump will always attack in the above order and
start the pattern over again in the seventh round.
Strategy
You should be able to win within three rounds using Ness and Jeff's
standard attacks, just before the Robo-Pump attacks in the fourth round.
Be sure that Ness and Jeff have about 100 HP before battling the Robo-
Pump just in case it manages to throw a Bomb.
-Ness: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)The Cafe
Your next destination is the Cafe in the northwest corner of Fourside (in
the Japanese version of the game, the Cafe is actually a bar).
Inside the Cafe, talk to the woman standing along the right wall of the
room. If you go back outside, you should see a group of people crowded
around Everdred lying on the ground. Talk to the Shaggy haired kid on the
right end of the line of people and answer "yes" when prompted. Give him
a nonessential item--a simple food item will suffice--and he will move
out of the way for Ness and Jeff.
Talk to Everdred and answer "no" when prompted; answering "yes" will just
cause him to tell his story again. After he leaves, enter the Cafe again
and "check" the cabinet behind the counter.
b)Moonside
Talk to the people around this place and pretty soon you will realize "no"
means "yes" and "yes" means "no." You may also notice some blonde haired
men walking around outside. If you talk to one of these characters, Ness
and Jeff will be teleported to another part of Moonside. You will need the
help of these warping men to return to Fourside.
The only thing Ness and Jeff need to do here is get out. First, talk to
the man standing to the right of the Monotoli Building in southern
Moonside.
Next, talk to the blond haired main walking around in front of the
Hospital in northern Moonside and the party should be warped near a gift
box and another blond haired man. Open the gift box to obtain a Night
Pendant and equip it on Ness.
Talk to the blond haired man and the party will be warped near another
gift box and another blond haired man. The gift box contains a Handbag
Strap, which is not a really helpful item. Talk to the man again to warp
to a gift box containing a Secret Herb, an item that cures all status
effects (potentially handy for an upcoming battle). Finally, talk to the
man wearing glasses and answer "no" when prompted to warp to an isolated
room.
Leave the Hotel and again talk to the person standing next to the Monotoli
Building. This time, the man will move out of the party's way and let Ness
and Jeff pass.
Before proceeding, be sure that Ness is equipped with the Night Pendant
and that Ness and Jeff are close to their max HP and PP. Walk to the
entrance of the Monotoli Building and talk to the man standing in front
of it. After he disappears, "check" the statue and you will enter a boss
battle against the Mani-Mani Statue. Have Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] and
Jeff use a Big Bottle Rocket in the first round to take away most of the
Statue's HP. Use PSI Rockin[beta] and Jeff's "shoot" thereafter to win in
about two more rounds. (If you don't have a Big Bottle Rocket, save Ness's
PP for Lifeup and and have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks). If
Jeff becomes paralyzed, use a Secret Herb on him.
After getting out of Moonside, leave the Cafe and go to the Fourside Dept.
Store to buy a Big Bottle Rocket to replace the one you used. Go to Dusty
Dunes Desert and enter the Monkey cave located north of the Drugstore.

Recommended Level: 36
ITEMS
a)Pencil Eraser
You will need the Pencil Eraser to get through the Monkey Cave.
b)Flame Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage
inflicted by Fire or equivalent attacks
Obtained: basket, in the Monkey Cave
Equip the Flame Pendant on Paula when she rejoins the party. This item
will come in handy against Fire using enemies that appear later in the
game.
c)Neutralizer
Use: resets any stats changes and removes any shields from all enemies and
allies
Obtained: gift box in the Monkey Cave in the Dusty Dunes Desert
The Neutralizer will remove all shields protecting both enemies and party
members. I find it a little more useful than the Shield Killer because
the Neutralizer always works. Find the Neutralizer if you don't have the
Shield Killer or the Broken Pipe.
d)Broken Tube
The Hungry HP-Sucker drains 10~20% of all enemies' max HP and gives it to
Jeff. The success rate is good enough for the Hungry HP-Sucker to be
useful against groups of enemies when Jeff needs to recover, but it almost
never works against bosses (although it can be pretty damaging when it
does).

ENEMIES
WALKTHROUGH
a)Introduction
In order to progress through the Monkey Cave, the party will need to give
various items to a number of Monkeys. You can actually buy or obtain most
of the items you will need before going into the cave in order to speed
things up a bit, but almost all of the necessary items can be obtained
within the cave itself. To keep this walkthrough simple, I will assume
that you will be buying a minimal amount of items before entering the cave
and the party does not have any of the needed items beforehand.
This walkthrough will be divided into two sections--one that explains how
to just get to the end of the cave and another section explaining how to
get to the end of the cave while obtaining the Neutralizer (a very useful
item), a Bag of Dragonite, a Flame Pendant (another useful item), and the
Broken Tube. Read whichever section you prefer.
NOTE: When I say "go back" in the walkthrough below, I mean to walk
towards the entrance of the cave. Usually this means you should
walk towards the east.
Before entering the cave, buy a Skip Sandwich and a Picnic Lunch from the
Dusty Dunes Drugstore if the party does not have those items and make
sure you have the Pencil Eraser.
NOTE: If Paula was carrying the Pencil Eraser when she was kidnapped, call
Escargo Express and they will deliver it to the party
(thanks to: G. Pilon).
A. Enter the cave and walk west until you see two monkeys. Give the monkey
on the right a Skip Sandwich. Enter the passageway and obtain the Wet
Towel contained in the basket in this room.
B. Return to the previous room and give the monkey on the left a Picnic
Lunch. Enter the passage and obtain the Pizza in this room.
C. Walk west and give the monkey on the right a Wet Towel. Obtain the
Ruler in the next room.
D. Go back three rooms and enter the passage on the right (the one you
first opened by giving the monkey a Skip Sandwich).
E. Walk west until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the left a
Pizza and obtain the Protein Drink in the next room.
F. Go back to the previous room and give the monkey on the right the
Protein Drink.
G. Keep going until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the left
a Ruler and obtain the King Banana from the monkey in the next room.
H. Go back three rooms and enter the passage on the left (the one opened
by giving the monkey a Pizza).
I. Keep going until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the right
the King Banana. Erase the Pencil a couple rooms down to reach the end
of the cave.
Talk to Talah Rama, the man floating in the air, and obtain the Yogurt
Dispenser. Next, talk to the monkey walking around in the room to have
Ness learn Teleport[alpha]; you do not have to do so in order to progress
in the game, but I strongly recommend you do.
c)Monkey Cave: how to get to the end and obtain some good stuff
Before entering the cave, buy a Picnic Lunch and a Skip Sandwich from the
Dusty Dunes Drugstore if the party does not have those items and make
sure you have the Pencil Eraser.
NOTE: If Paula was carrying the Pencil Eraser when she was kidnapped, call
Escargo Express and they will deliver it to the party
(thanks to: G. Pilon).
THE NEUTRALIZER:
A. Enter the cave and walk west until you see two monkeys. Give the monkey
on the left a Picnic Lunch. Enter the passage and obtain the Pizza in
the next room.
B. Walk west until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the left a
Pizza and obtain the Pizza in the next room. Walk west and obtain the
Fresh Egg from the monkey.
NOTE: The Fresh Egg will turn into a Chick in about 1 minute, so you must
hurry the next part. If you do not give the Fresh Egg away in time,
another one can be obtained from the same monkey.
C. Go back four rooms and give the monkey on the right a Skip Sandwich.
Obtain the Wet Towel in the basket.
D. Walk west until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the left a
Pizza and obtain the Protein Drink in the next room.
E. Return to the previous room and give the monkey on the right a Protein
Drink. Obtain the Hamburger in the basket.
F. Walk west until you see two more monkeys. Give the monkey on the right
a Fresh Egg and obtain the Neutralizer in the next room.
G. Go back five rooms and enter the passage on the left (the one opened by
giving the monkey a Picnic Lunch at the beginning).
H. Keep going forward until you see two monkeys. Give the monkey on the
right a Wet Towel and obtain the Ruler and the Hamburger in the next
room.
I. Walk west and give both monkeys a Hamburger. Enter each passage to
obtain the Flame Pendant and the Broken Tube. For now, I suggest you
equip the Flame Pendant on Jeff, though you should equip it on Paula
when she rejoins the party.
J. Go back five rooms and enter the passage on the right (the one opened
by giving the monkey a Skip Sandwich).
K. Walk west until you see two passages and enter the one on the right.
L. Walk west until you see two more monkeys and give the one on the left a
Ruler. Enter the passage and obtain the King Banana from the monkey.
N. Walk west until you see two more monkeys. Give the one on the right the
King Banana.
If you keep going forward from here, you will reach the end of the cave.
If you want the Bag of Dragonite, you can obtain the Hamburger in the next
room, go back one room and give the Hamburger to the monkey on the left.
Talk to Talah Rama, the man floating in the air, and obtain the Yogurt
Dispenser. Next, talk to the monkey walking around in the room to have
Ness learn Teleport[alpha].

ENEMIES
a)Clumsy Robot
Recommended Level: 36
Attacks
-Is reeling
Effect: none
-Is wobbly
Effect: none
-Re-apply a bandage
Effect: none
Have Ness use Paralysis[alpha] in each round until the Clumsy Robot is
paralyzed while using Lifeup to keep the party's HP up. Once the Clumsy
Robot is paralyzed, use standard attacks to finish it off. When
recovering HP, be sure to wait until the HP counter stops moving upwards
before attacking again (provided that nobody is seriously wounded).
Avoid using Big Bottle Rockets against this enemy, as it rarely (if
ever) inflicts any damage.
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Sentry Robot
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 40~60 HP (Ness)
30~50 HP (Jeff)
-Say "tick-tock"
Effect: none
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Sentry Robot within three rounds using
standard attacks. Use PSI Rockin[beta] if you get overwhelmed by
multiple Sentry Robots.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls to 120 or
lower
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
Return to Fourside after receiving the Yogurt Dispenser from Talah Rama
in the Monkey Cave. Go to the Monotoli Building in northern Fourside and
talk to the maid standing outside. Enter the building, take the elevator
to the 47th floor, and enter the other elevator to go to the 48th floor.
Once off the elevator, walk west through the door and fight the two Sentry
Robots in the hallway. Enter one of the two doors at the left end of the
hall. If you enter through the leftmost door, it is possible to avoid the
Sentry Robot in the next room by squeezing through the desk and the wall
in the upper left-hand corner of the room. I recommend you fight the
Sentry Robot, however, since they are not too hard and give a decent
amount of experience points. Enter the door to the north of this room to
proceed.
The door to the north of the next room will lead to a gift box containing
a Sudden Guts Pill guarded by a Sentry Robot. If you do not have at least
one of these, it may be a good idea to obtain it here. If you really don't
want to fight the Sentry Robot, you can wait until after Paula rejoins the
party and all the Sentry Robots are gone. Enter the other door to the west
to proceed.
The Sentry Robot in this next room can be evaded by quickly entering the
right-hand door to the north. The left-hand door, however, leads to a
gift box containing a Vital Capsule, and I recommend you obtain this and
save it for Paula when she returns to the party. Again, you can wait
until after Paula rejoins the party to obtain this item. The right-hand
door will lead to another room with a door to the north and a door to the
west. The door to the north will lead to the maid's room, but all she
will give the party is a Trout Yogurt, a food item that recovers a paltry
30 HP. Before proceeding, be sure that Ness and Jeff are at max HP and
Ness has a decent amount of PP. Enter the door to the west and the party
will encounter the Clumsy Robot.
The Clumsy Robot is a powerful enemy than can inflict heavy damage, but
like the Mondo Mole, this powerful enemy can be rendered helpless with
Paralysis[alpha]. Paralysis is not guaranteed to work, however, though you
should eventually be successful if you keep using it in each round. Use
Lifeup to recover the party's HP as needed. Once the Clumsy Robot is
paralyzed, just use Ness and Jeff's standard attacks to finish the battle.
Enter the door to the west after the battle is over and talk to Monotoli.
Answer "no" when prompted to proceed. When Paula rejoins the party, give
her your best defense items and the Franklin Badge. I recommend you equip
Paula with a Flame Pendant, a Platinum Band, and a Mr. Saturn Coin; Equip
Jeff with a Great Charm, a Gold Bracelet, and a Coin of Defense; equip
Ness with a Night Pendant, a Silver Bracelet, and a Coin of Defense. If
you do not have some of these items, you can obtain a Gold Bracelet from
the Tool Shop in the Fourside Department Store, a Coin of Defense from
the Toy Shop in the Fourside Department Store, and the Mr. Saturn Coin
from one of the Mr. Saturns in Saturn Valley. The other items are in gift
boxes that you cannot or don't really have to go back to get.
Enter the door to the west and walk to the end of the hallway. Approach
the helicopter, watch the little scene, and return to the entrance of the
Monotoli Building.
Return to the cell where Ness and Paula were held earlier in Threed and
the Sky Runner should be fixed. "Check" the Sky Runner and the party will
be taken to Winters.
Note that after taking the Sky Runner to Winters, you should not teleport
anywhere else until after you have reached Summers, an upcoming area.
Otherwise, when you teleport back to Winters, the party will be taken to
Snow Wood Boarding House, and you will have to walk all the way south to
Dr. Andonuts's Lab while facing much stronger enemies than the first time
Jeff traveled through Winters.

a)Arachnid!
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 15~20 HP (Ness)
8~10 HP (Paula
25~35 HP (Jeff)

A hit from any two party member's standard attack should defeat the
Arachnid!. Use Healing[beta] to heal any poisoned party members after
the battle is over.
Vulnerable: Fire

Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Cave Boy within two rounds with
standard attacks.
c)Elder Batty

30~50 HP (Jeff)
-Biting attack
Damage: 80~110 HP (Ness)
80~90 HP (Paula)
100~125 HP (Jeff)
Strategy
A hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the Elder
Batty. Defeat this enemy after any Strong Crocodiles if it appears in a
group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower

Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 75~95 HP (Ness)
70~90 HP (Paula
90~100 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Strategy
Like most boss battles, the best strategy here is to have a good offense
that defeats the enemy quickly. This is particularly true against
Shrooom! because it will mushroomize most of your party if the battle
lasts too long.
If Jeff does not have any Big Bottle Rockets, do NOT Teleport to
Fourside to buy any. Instead, have Ness "bash" and save PP for Lifeup
and Healing[beta] to cure any poisoned party members. Have Paula use
Freeze[gamma] and Jeff use the Slime Generator in each round. It may
also help to use a Sudden Guts Pill on Ness if you have one.
If Ness becomes mushroomized, have him "defend" in each round and only
use Lifeup or Healing[beta] as necessary. If Jeff cannot use any Big
Bottle Rockets, however, you may want Ness to "bash" even if he is
mushroomized. If Paula is mushroomized, have her "defend" or use PSI
moves such as Defense Down[alpha] or Offense Up[alpha]. Use Freeze
[gamma] if you feel confident that you can recover a mortally wounded
party member in time with Lifeup. If Jeff becomes mushroomized, do not
have him use Big Bottle Rockets and have him "defend."
-Paula: Freeze[gamma]
"defend," if mushroomized
Offense Up[alpha] or Defense Down[alpha], if mushroomized
f)Strong Crocodile
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 50~75 HP (Ness)
50~65 HP (Paula)
60~85 HP (Jeff)
-Biting attack
Damage: 120~170 HP (Ness)
110~160 HP (Paula)
140~190 HP (Jeff)
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
Have Paula use Freeze[beta] in the first round and use standard attacks
thereafter to defeat the Strong Crocodile within two rounds. If you want
to defeat this enemy in one round, use Freeze[gamma] together with Ness
and Jeff's standard attacks. Always defeat the Strong Crocodile first
when it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls below max
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls to 150 or
lower
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
Remember the Shining Spot Jeff passed by when he first traveled through
here? That is our destination. Be warned, however, that new, more powerful
enemies are lurking in the area. The Cave Boys are still around, but they
hardly pose a threat anymore. The Mighty Bear Sevens, on the other hand,
are very powerful, but can be defeated quickly with a hit from Freeze[beta]
and Ness and Jeff's standard attacks. They can also be avoided, since they
move slower than the party.
There are new enemies inside the cave as well, though you will probably
not fight too many of them since the Shining Spot is so close to the
entrance. If you do get into a fight and lose a large amount of HP or PP,
return to the lab and recover.
Like most boss battles, the best strategy here is to have a good offense
that defeats the enemy quickly. This is particularly true against
Shrooom! because it will mushroomize most of your party if the battle
lasts too long.
If Jeff does not have any Big Bottle Rockets, do NOT Teleport to
Fourside to buy any. Instead, have Ness "bash" and save PP for Lifeup
and Healing[beta] to cure any poisoned party members. Have Paula use
Freeze[gamma] and Jeff use the Slime Generator in each round. It may
also help to use a Sudden Guts Pill on Ness if you have one.
If Ness becomes mushroomized, have him "defend" in each round and only
use Lifeup or Healing[beta] as necessary. If Jeff cannot use any Big
Bottle Rockets, however, you may want Ness to "bash" even if he is
mushroomized. If Paula is mushroomized, have her "defend" or use PSI
moves such as Defense Down[alpha] or Offense Up[alpha]. Use Freeze
[gamma] if you feel confident that you can recover a mortally wounded
party member in time with Lifeup. If Jeff becomes mushroomized, do not
have him use Big Bottle Rockets and have him "defend."
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
This section is for those who may have teleported from Winters after taking
the Sky Runner there and before going to Summers. If you saved after doing
this or saved too long ago in the game, you will have no choice but to walk
from Snow Wood Boarding House all the way south to Dr. Andonuts's Lab. This
section mostly contains suggestions on how to deal with the new enemies
found in Winters.
NOTE: It may help to have the Pencil Eraser with you, as there is a pencil
statue on the way that the party can erase and shorten the distance
they have to travel.
The enemies you will have to deal with are the Lesser Mook, the Wooly
Shambler, and the Whirling Robo. These enemies are not too tough and can be
dealt with. Do not be afraid to make liberal use of Paula's PSI moves. The
party can recover in one of the tents in northern Winters or have Paula use
PSI Magnet[omega] if her PP runs low. As usual, save Ness's PP for Lifeup.
You should also note that Brick Road is no longer in Southern Winters, so you
will not be able to recover HP and PP after crossing the lake with Tessie
until the party reaches Dr. Andonuts's Lab.
If you face a Lesser Mook, you will need to watch out for its Freeze attacks.
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round and have Ness and Jeff
use their standard attacks. If you want to inflict more damage, use Paula's
Fire[beta] rather than Freeze, which the Lesser Mook is resistant to. This
enemy can also diamondize a party member, but there is not much you can do
about this other than to have Secret Herbs on hand and defeat this enemy
quickly. If you do not have any Secret Herbs, you can buy some at Saturn
Valley or wait until reaching Dr. Andonut's Lab and recovering with the
Instant Revitalizing Device. Always defeat any Lesser Mooks before any other
enemy.
If you face a Whirling Robo, using only standard attacks should suffice. Use
Freeze[gamma] if you want to defeat this enemy in one attack. If this enemy
puts up a Shield, use Jeff's Neutralizer after any Lesser Mooks are defeated.
Defeat this enemy last if it appears in a group.

Damage: 3~5 HP (Ness)
3~5 HP (Paula)
3~5 HP (Jeff)
-Hypnosis[alpha]
-Paralysis[alpha]
Strategy
A hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the Crazed
Sign. If this enemy appears with a Mad Taxi, defeat the Crazed Sign
first.
-Ness: "bash"
Hypnosis[alpha]
-Paula: "bash
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Mad Taxi
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Attacks
Strategy
A hit from Ness and Jeff's standard attacks should defeat the Mad Taxi.
You probably will not need to use Paralysis on this enemy at this point
in the game. Defeat this enemy after any Crazed Signs.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
-Paula: "bash"

Effect: damage inflicted by "bash" attacks is reduced by 50%
Comments: Damage inflicted by Jeff's "shoot" will not be reduced by this
move.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Over Zealous Cop in one or two rounds
using standard attacks. Defeat this enemy first if it appears with a
Tough Guy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
e)Tough Guy
Attacks
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Tough Guy in one or two rounds using
standard attacks. Defeat this enemy after any Over Zealous Cops.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
Buy some new equipment upon reaching Summers. Go to the store in Summers
and buy a Big League Bat for Ness. Don't buy the Chef's Fry Pan for Paula
if you can afford an extra $292 for a better weapon (see below). The
Lucky Coin and Diamond Band should also be bought, but if you can't
afford it all, give priority to equipping Paula. Note that the Lucky Coin
is cheaper but provides the same defensive protection as the Diamond
Band. If you have the Mr. Saturn Coin, you do not have to buy a Lucky
Coin to replace it, since the Lucky Coin only provides 3 more points in
defensive protection. If you can't afford a Lucky Coin, you can also buy
a Coin of Silence in Winters for $2500 and only sacrifice 5 points of
defensive protection and 4 points of Luck. The Diamond Band, on the other
hand, provides 10 more points of defensive protection over the Platinum
Band and 20 more over the Gold Bracelet. Make your purchases depending on
what your party is equipped with and your how much money you have. The
Diamond Band and the Big League Bat can be bought at a cheaper price
later on in the game, but try to obtain these items now if you can.
b)Magic Cake
You can explore Summers a bit if you want, but there is not much to do
here. You can go to the second floor of the museum and meet the fellow
the party will have to deal with a little later in the game, but there is
no real point in that. There are also a few food items the party can buy
in the Restaurant but the only worthwhile item on sale is the Kraken Soup,
which recovers full HP.
Upon exiting the building, the party should get a call from Tony, Jeff's
roommate back in Snow Wood. He will ask you to enter your name (the
player's name, not Ness or a party member). I suggest you do so since
the game uses your name for an interesting effect a couple of times at
the end of the game. Of course, you can just put in a joke name like
"poop" or something; it's up to you.
Next, go to a phone and call the Stoic Club (the nearest phone is in the
Toto Shop).
After doing so, enter the club in Summers and talk to the mustached man
standing next to the left-hand table. He should mention Magic Cake.
Talk to the woman wearing the pink dress near the entrance and answer
"yes" when prompted; the party will have to talk to her again if you
answer "no."
Once the woman leaves the building, exit and walk to the cart located
southwest of the club. Talk to her, and the game should take you to
Dalaam.

2.Poo's Trial
ITEMS
a)Brain Stone
The Brain Stone does not help that much, so I recommend you give it to
Escargo Express. If you want to keep it, it may be best to give it to
Paula.
b)Jar of Delisauce
Use: condiment; when used in conjunction with a food item, this will
increase the amount of HP and/or PP recovered by about 50~100%.
Obtained: -chest in one of the houses in Dalaam
-Dalaam Restaurant
Hold on to the Jar of Delisauce and use it with any Rock Candies you find.

WALKTHROUGH
a)Mu
Open the chests in the Palace to obtain a Brain Food Lunch and a Cup of
Lifenoodles. The Brain Stone is also found here, but I don't find the item
to be that useful; give it to Escargo Express if you get it, or put it in
Paula's inventory when Poo joins the party.
Exit the Palace and enter some of the houses to obtain more food items.
Make your way to southeast Dalaam and talk to the man waiting for Poo.
Once the man leaves, climb the rope to the top and begin meditating. Don't
touch the control pad while sitting. Poo will stop his training if you do,
and you will have to talk to the old man back in the Palace and start all
over again.
With the training complete, return to the Palace and talk to the old man.
Poo will then gain a few levels and teleport to Summers to join Ness.

ENEMIES
a)Deadly Mouse
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
Strategy
If Poo is at a low level when you face the Deadly Mouse, have Paula use
Freeze[gamma] and follow it up with a standard attack from Ness or Jeff.
Once Poo is leveled up, using only standard attacks should suffice.
Defeat this enemy first when it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls below max
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
Freeze[gamma], when leveling up Poo

-Poo: "bash"
"mirror", for some extra attack power
Freeze[alpha], if at a low level
Freeze[beta], if at a low level
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 130 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls below max
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 25~40 HP (Ness)
35~55 HP (Paula)
35~55 HP (Jeff)
120~140 HP (Poo, level ~20)
90~100 HP (Poo, level ~40)
Strategy
A hit from Ness, Paula, and Jeff's standard attacks should defeat the
Filthy Attack Roach, although this enemy has a good chance of dodging
your attacks. A hit from Freeze[beta] followed by a hit from any party
member's standard attack should also defeat this enemy
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower

recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls below max
Attacks
Strategy
Before starting the battle, make sure that each party member has at
least 150 HP. Keeping each party member's HP above 150 should give you
enough time to recover a mortally wounded character before the HP
counter reaches 0.
Have Paula and Poo use their highest level Freeze attack and Jeff use
up any Big Bottle Rockets he may have. Follow this approach and the
Plague Rat of Doom should be defeated quickly.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] or [gamma] if HP falls to 150 or
lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower

Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 65~90 HP (Ness)
65~90 HP (Paula)
65~90 HP (Jeff)
180~190 HP (Poo)
Strategy
Have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks, Paula use Freeze[gamma],
and Poo use Freeze[beta]. If the battle does not end within one round,
finish this enemy off with standard attacks. Make sure that each party
member, particularly Poo, has enough HP to give you enough time to heal
a mortally wounded character before the HP counter reaches 0. If you
want to play it safe, have Ness use Paralysis[alpha].
-Ness: "bash"
Paralysis[alpha]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls below max
-Jeff: "shoot"
-Poo: Freeze[beta]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls below max
WALKTHROUGH
There are a few things you should know about Poo before taking him into
battle. First, most food items are ineffective for him, as they only
recover about 6 of Poo's HP. Only medicinal items, such as the Cup of
Lifenoodles, and PP recovery items are effective, and a few food items are
better for Poo than for the other party members. These items are:
Brain Food Lunch: recovers 600 HP and 100 PP
Bottle of Water: recovers 10 PP
Bottle of DXwater: recovers 40 PP
Second, Poo should not equip the same armor and weapons the other party
members use; those items will actually decrease Poo's stats. All of Poo's
equipment is either found in gift boxes or dropped by enemies. These items
are:
NOTE: You can go record the fifth and sixth sanctuary melodies once Poo
joined the party. Alternatively, you can talk to the sailor in Toto
and set sail for Scaraba, the next town, and record the melodies at
a later time. The walkthrough below will cover the fifth and sixth
sanctuary locations first.
Now that Poo has joined the party, you will probably want to level him
up. Let's put that on the back burner for now, however, and do a few
other things first.
Go to the Museum in Summers and pay the $12 admission fee. Walk up to the
second floor and talk to the man standing in front of the door. Whether
you answer "yes" or "no" to his request, the party will give him the Tiny
Ruby and gain access to the room behind him. There are two enemies here,
so be prepared for that (they aren't too hard). Defeat them with Freeze
[gamma] and [beta] or Paralysis[alpha].
"Check" the sign in front of the Hieroglyphs and attempt to leave the
room. The man will stop the party and give them the Hieroglyph Copy,
an item that repeats everything written on the Hieroglyphs when "used."
Keep it for future reference.
As the party attempts to leave the museum, the phone on the reception
desk should start ringing. Answer the phone and listen to "Mr. Spoon"
from the Fourside Museum talk about his "extraordinary," "fantastic," and
"outrageous" find. Teleport to Fourside.
Before going to the Museum, be sure that Jeff has at least two Big Bottle
Rockets in his inventory and buy a few at the Dept. Store if he does not
have any.
Enter the Museum, pay the $20 admission fee, and talk to the man standing
in front of the door on the left side of the Museum. He explains that he
will show the party his "extraordinary" thing in exchange for the
autograph of the singer Venus. Go to Topolla Theater, buy a Show Ticket,
and enter the music hall to see Venus's performance (it's about 2 and a
half minutes long).
Once the performance ends, enter the dressing room on the other side of
the music hall and talk to Venus to obtain the Signed Banana. Return to
Mr. Spoon in the Museum and "use" the Signed Banana to gain access to the
sewers underneath Fourside.
If have not done so already, spend some time to level Poo up. Stay close
to the entrance of the sewer and rest at the Fourside Hotel or at Saturn
Valley as needed. The enemies here will probably be too much for Poo to
handle, so have him "defend" while his level is still low and keep his HP
up. Try to end each battle as quickly as you can and do not skimp on
offensive PSI, particularly Freeze. Level Poo up to at least level 40;
any lower and you may find him to be too weak to be much help.
Once you are ready, venture through the sewers. To the right of the
entrance, there is a room that contains a Broken Iron. Unless Jeff
doesn't have the Slime Generator, you won't need that. Instead, go left
from the entrance, go down the ladder into the water, and walk all the way
east. Walk east into the second area of the sewer and continue forward.
Near the middle of the second area of the sewer, there is a magic
butterfly room. If the party is running low on PP, get out of the water
at the end of this area, walk west, and enter the door. There should be a
magic butterfly inside this room (if there isn't, reenter this room
repeatedly until one appears). Be sure to use Lifeup to heal any party
members before touching the butterfly. There is also a trash can located
west of the butterfly room containing a Rust Promoter DX; it can be useful
later in the game, but there's really no need to obtain it.
Walk east and enter the third and final part of the sewer. Before heading
toward the Shining Spot, get out of the water and enter the door just
ahead. Inside, there should be a trash can that contains the Broken
Bazooka, an item that Jeff can repair into the very useful Heavy Bazooka
(45 IQ required).
Leave the room, enter the water, and walk to the eastern area of the
sewer. Get out of the water and approach the Shining Spot. Before talking
to it, however, make sure that each party member has at least 150 HP.
Like all mouse enemies in this game, the Plague Rat of Doom has a high
rate of SMAAAASH!! hits. Keeping each party member's HP above 150 should
give you enough time to recover a mortally wounded character before the
HP counter reaches 0. Have Paula and Poo use their highest level Freeze
attack and Jeff use up any Big Bottle Rockets he may have. You should
hopefully be able to defeat this enemy in just a couple of rounds.
Once the Plague Rat of Doom is defeated, walk up the ladder and record
the fifth sanctuary melody. The nearby chest contains a Carrot Key, an
item needed to reach the sixth sanctuary location in Dalaam. Obtain it
and head back to the entrance of the museum (the party can't teleport
near the sanctuary spot).

_______________________________________________________________________________
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Bracer of Kings
Obtain the Bracer of Kings on your way back to the entrance after
recording the sixth sanctuary melody. This is the only item Poo should
equip on his arms for the entire game.
b)Rock Candy
Obtain the Rock Candy on your way to the Shining Spot. Use it with a Sugar
Packet or a Jar of Delisauce to boost the stat increase to 2. I recommend
you use this item on Paula or Poo.
NOTE: There is a bug in the game that allows you to use the Rock Candy an
infinite number of times. A detailed explanation on how to take
advantage of this bug can be found at starmen.net.

50~80 HP (Jeff)
100~130 HP (Poo)

70~100 HP (Paula)
70~100 HP (Jeff)
110~160 HP (Poo)
-Summon a storm
Effect: causes uncontrollable crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an
instant KO
Strategy
Before the battle begins, make sure that each party member has at least
150 HP and that Paula is carrying the Franklin Badge. Have Paula and Poo
use their strongest Freeze attack and have Jeff use up any Big Bottle
Rockets he may have. You should hopefully be able to win this battle in
about two rounds.
If Ness has learned Flash[gamma] or [omega], have him use those attacks
instead of "bash." Thunder and Storm is vulnerable to Flash, which has
a pretty good chance of instantly defeating this boss. There is some
chance that Flash[beta] will also yield an instant win, but the odds are
a little too low for me to recommend its use.
-Ness: "bash"
Flash[gamma] or [omega], if available
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower

recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
NOTE: The sixth sanctuary melody does not have to be obtained now. If you
want, the party can talk to the sailor in Toto and set sail for
Scaraba instead.
Once in Dalaam, talk to the old man in the Palace to rest if needed and
head toward the cave in the southwest. "Use" the Carrot Key while
standing next to the rabbit statues and they should all disappear.
Enter the cave and climb up the first couple of ropes you see and walk
west until you see a hole. Enter the hole and open the gift box to obtain
a Sudden Guts Pill. Enter the leftmost hole on this level. If you enter
one of the other two holes, you will have to return to the entrance and
start all over again.
After falling through the hole, open the gift box to obtain the Rock
Candy, an item that randomly increases its user's Speed, Guts, Vitality,
IQ, or Luck by one. Don't use this item just yet, unless you have a Jar
of Delisauce or a Sugar Packet. Using this item with either condiment
will boost the stat increase to two. I recommend you use this item on
Paula or Poo. Enter the hole next to the gift box to proceed.
Walk west from here and the party will soon approach the Shining Spot.
The sanctuary boss, Thunder and Storm, has some pretty powerful attacks
that can give you some trouble. Its "summon a storm" attack can instantly
KO a few party members and its "intertwine" attack can inflict up to 400
HP of damage to a single target. Therefore, it is important that you end
this battle quickly. Before the battle begins, make sure that each party
member has at least 150 HP so that you don't spend the first few rounds
recovering. Have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack and have
Jeff use up any Big Bottle Rockets he may have. You should hopefully be
able to win this battle in two rounds (If Ness has learned Flash[gamma]
or [omega], have him use those attacks instead of "bash." Thunder and
Storm are vulnerable to Flash, has a pretty good chance of defeating this
enemy).
After defeating Thunder and Storm, record the Sixth Sanctuary Melody,
walk back into the cave and enter the first hole the party comes across.
Open the gift box to obtain the Bracer of Kings and equip this on Poo's
arms (Poo should keep this item on his arms for the rest of the game).
Continue moving forward and the party will eventually reach the entrance.
Rest at the Palace if you need to and teleport to Summers.
NOTE: (G. Pilon sent the following tip) An easy way to level up the party
is to exit and reenter the Sixth Sanctuary Cave and defeat the lone
enemy that appears in front of the entrance. The enemy will run
away from the party if you have already defeated the Sanctuary
Boss, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an
instant victory to gain 2700 or 3600 exp. points.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
Equipment:
a)Kraken
Recommended Level: 50
Attacks
-Generate a tornado
Damage: 130~190 HP (Ness)
170~210 HP (Paula)
170~210 HP (Jeff)
190~250 HP (Poo)
Comments: This attack will damage the entire party.
-Breathe fire
Damage: 150~250 HP, to everyone
-Flash[beta]
Strategy
Try to defeat the Kraken in one round (it has about 1000 HP). Have Paula
and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack and Jeff use a Big Bottle
Rocket. Have Ness either "bash" or use his strongest PSI Rockin attack.
If the Kraken is not defeated in one round, repeat the process.
The Kraken's fire and tornado attacks inflict heavy damage to the entire
party, making recovery very difficult. Instead of trying to keep the
entire party's HP up, use the rolling HP counter by concentrating on
ending the battle as quickly as possible. The battle should last two
rounds at most. There is a chance that Paula and Poo's Freeze will
solidify the Kraken and prevent it from attacking, making the battle
much easier.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[gamma]
-Paula: Freeze[omega]
-Poo: Freeze[gamma]
WALKTHROUGH
a)Sailing to Scaraba
Once Poo has joined the party, you can talk to a sailor in Toto and set
sail for Scaraba. If you have not obtained the fifth and sixth sanctuary
melodies, be sure to level up Poo to at least level 40 before proceeding.
Also, make sure that your party has max HP and PP and that Jeff has at
least one Big Bottle Rocket in his inventory.
Go to Toto and talk to the sailor wearing the blue and white striped
shirt. One of them (the one on the right) is the husband of the Magic
Cake vendor and will offer the party passage to Scaraba for $20/person.
Answer "yes" when prompted when you are ready.
During the voyage, the party will be attacked by the Kraken. Try to end
this battle as quickly as possible. The Kraken's attacks can inflict
heavy damage to the entire party, making recovery difficult. Instead of
trying to keep the party's HP up, concentrate on your offense. Have Paula
and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack and Jeff use a Big Bottle
Rocket. Have Ness either "bash" or use his strongest PSI Rockin. You
should be able to defeat the Kraken within two rounds (any longer and you
may end up with unconscious party members). If you're lucky, Paula and
Poo's Freeze will solidify the Kraken and prevent it from attacking.
After defeating the Kraken, the boat will continue to sail to Scaraba
without further incident.

Outline
1.The Pyramid
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Rain Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage
inflicted by Freeze by about 96%
Obtained: casket in Pyramid, in the room behind the Guardian General
Fewer enemies use Freeze than Fire or Flash, so the Rain Pendant is not as
useful as the Night or Flame Pendant. Equip this on Jeff.
b)Snake Bag
Use: inflicts 1~4 HP of damage and has a roughly 50% chance of poisoning
its target; can be used an infinite number of times; the target of
this item is randomly determined
Obtained: merchant in Scaraba marketplace
The merchant who sells the Snake Bag will reduce the price from $290 to
$98 when you buy it. I sometimes have Jeff or Poo use this item when they
have nothing else to do.

Damage: 35~50 HP (Ness)
45~65 HP (Paula)
45~65 HP (Jeff)
60~90 HP (Poo)
-PSI Shield[alpha]
Strategy
The High-Class UFO always has a Shield up from the beginning of the
battle, but using standard attacks should be enough to defeat this
enemy. If you want to get rid of its Shield, use the Neutralizer or the
Shield Killer.
If this enemy appears with a Beautiful UFO, defeat the Beautiful UFO
first; the Beautiful UFO's offense is comparable to that of the High-
Class UFO, but the Beautiful UFO is easier to defeat.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower

recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
Always chase after this enemy if you see it. A victory against the Master
Criminal Worm will yield a very large amount of experience points and will
almost always level up a party member. This enemy looks like a small red
worm outside of battle.
The Master Criminal Worm appears very rarely and always runs away from the
party, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an instant
victory. It is rare to actually have to fight this enemy in battle, but if
you do, have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to protect the
party from Fire. This enemy has a very high Speed and will likely attack
first each round.

-Standard attack
Damage: 20~40 HP (Ness)
30~50 HP (Paula)
30~50 HP (Jeff)

Attacks
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Lethal Asp Hieroglyph in one or two

-Charge forward
Damage: 160~200 HP (Ness)
160~200 HP (Paula)
160~200 HP (Jeff)
188~220 HP (Poo)
Strategy
Have Ness use Paralysis[alpha] in the first round and use standard
attacks thereafter. If you don't want to use Paralysis, Jeff's Slime
Generator can be an effective alternative. If the Petrified Royal Guard
appears in a group, use Paralysis[alpha] on it and defeat all other
enemies first.
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Slime Generator, if enemy is not paralyzed
Hungry HP-Sucker, if enemy is paralyzed
-Poo: "bash"
Snake Bag, to poison the enemy
WALKTHROUGH
The first shop you might want to visit is the tool shop located at the
southwest corner of the market. If you did not buy any Platinum Bands or
a Big League Bat in Summers, you can buy them here at a cheaper price.
You may also want to buy a Crystal Charm, as they are a good defensive
item to use if you want protection against paralysis. The Broken Cannon
can be repaired by Jeff into the Spectrum Beam (32 IQ required), a
weapon for Jeff. The item will probably inflict less damage than the
Heavy Bazooka, however, so only buy the Broken Cannon if you do not have
the Heavy Bazooka yet.
Another item for sale is the Piggy Nose. This item can only be used in a
place called Deep Darkness, a swamp area that the party will travel
through after they clear Scaraba. Throughout Deep Darkness, the party can
find Magic Truffles, a food item that recovers about 80 PP. The Piggy
Nose is almost essential if you want to find any Truffles, but it might
be better to wait until the party reaches Deep Darkness before returning
to buy a Piggy Nose.
Most of the other merchants around here sell food items or miscellaneous
items, such as the Wet Towel or Vial of Serum. There are a couple of
merchants, however, that sell serpents that can let you poison enemies.
Standard Snakes aren't too useful, but the Viper has a 100% chance of
poisoning most enemies. One vendor will also sell the party a Snake Bag,
an item that allows you to use Snakes an infinite number of times, for
$98 (the merchant initially offers it for $290, but will reduce the price
to $98 when you actually buy it). The Snake Bag isn't a great item, but I
sometimes give it to Jeff or Poo have them use it when their standard
attacks aren't too effective.
The Pyramid is a pretty long area with lots of enemies, so make sure the
party is adequately prepared before entering. Take an Exit Mouse with you
just in case you need to escape; an Exit Mouse can still be obtained south
of Onett or in the Gold Mine in Dusty Dunes Desert. It may also be good
idea for Jeff to have the Hungry HP-Sucker, as this will help conserve
Ness and Poo's PP for Lifeup. Take the Slime Generator along as well, as
it can be effective against some of the enemies in the Pyramid.
NOTE: Poo will leave for awhile after the party travels through the
Pyramid, so make sure he's not carrying anything you might need
later on.
Leave Scaraba through its south gate and walk southeast. Remember, if the
screen starts flashing red check the party's status for sunstroke and
use Healing[alpha] on the affected party member. The party will probably
face a few enemies on their way to the Pyramid but they aren't too hard.
Once you reach the front of the Pyramid, stand on the top circle. To open
the Pyramid, the party must step on each circular switch in a particular
order.
. The top . denotes the top circle, and is the switch
the party must step on first and last. The numbers
4 3 represent the other switches and denote the order in
which the party must step on them.
2 5
NOTE: If a dialogue window containing "....." pops
up when stepping on a switch, you must return
to Summers, go to the second floor of the
Museum, and examine the Hieroglyph piece.
If you step on a wrong switch, you must start the process over from the
beginning. Enter the Pyramid once the entrance is opened.
In the first room, you will likely notice a Hieroglyph figure on the wall.
This particular figure will not come to life, but almost all figures
deeper inside the Pyramid are enemies and will attack the party. These
enemies can mostly be defeated with standard attacks. You will likely have
the most trouble with the Fierce Shattered Man and the Petrified Royal
Guard, as they are capable of inflicting the most damage. The Petrified
Royal Guard can be immobilized by Paralysis[alpha] or repeated use of the
Slime Generator. The Fierce Shattered Man can also be immobilized with
Paralysis[alpha], though these enemies are not as dangerous and can be
dealt with by just using standard attacks; Freeze[beta] or [gamma] is also
pretty effective against this enemy.
Keep moving forward into the Pyramid until the party enters a room with
a sarcophagus in the center. The top door on the left will lead to a
casket containing a Bag of Dragonite. Whether the item is worth the
enemies the party will face on the way to the casket is up to you (the
item is two rooms away). The door on the right is the one to enter to
proceed.
Open both caskets in this room to obtain a Speed Capsule and a Cup of
Lifenoodles. Use the Speed Capsule right away on a party member (I usually
give it to Paula or Poo).
Enter the door on the right and walk down the long flight of stairs.
"Check" the casket at the bottom of the stairs to start a battle with the
Guardian General.
The most effective weapon against the Guardian General seems to be the
Slime Generator; have Jeff use it in each round and the Guardian General
will likely waste almost all of its turns doing nothing. If Paula has a
sufficient amount of PP, have her use Freeze[gamma] or [omega] while Ness
uses his "bash" attack. Have Poo either "bash" or use a Snake Bag.
Once the Guardian General is defeated, enter the next room and step on the
tile with the bold outline. Open the casket in this room to obtain the
Rain Pendant. Equip this on Jeff or whomever it may benefit. If the Rain
Pendant replaces a Crystal Charm, it may be a good idea to hold on to the
Crystal Charm for when you want protection from Paralysis.
After stepping on the switch, return to the room with the sarcophagus in
the center. The sarcophagus should have disappeared and a hole should be
seen in its place. Approach the hole and fall through to land near an
altar with the Hawk Eye sitting on top. Approach the altar and "check" the
Hawk Eye to obtain it.
Go through the door on the right, walk up the stairs, and enter the next
room. The casket here contains a Diamond Band. Equip this item on whomever
it may benefit, or hold on to it and sell it once the party has gone
through the Pyramid. Fall through the hole to proceed.
This is the last stretch of the Pyramid before the exit. Enter the door
on the right and walk through the hallway. Walk up the stairs and enter
door to leave the Pyramid.
The party will now be in Southern Scaraba. Attempt to walk forward out
into the desert and the old man from Dalaam will appear in front of the
party. He will heal the party and ask Poo to come with him. Poo will
comply and will leave the party for awhile. He will not return until the
party is in Deep Darkness, the next major area.
NOTE: If Poo was carrying the Hawk Eye when he left the party, you should
get a phone call from Escargo Express telling you that they have the
Hawk Eye. To get the Hawk Eye, simply call Escargo Express and have
it delivered to the party.

You should be able to defeat the Beautiful UFO in one round by using
standard attacks. If this enemy appears with a High Class UFO, defeat
the Beautiful UFO first; the two enemies have about the same Offense,
but the Beautiful UFO is easier to defeat.

-PSI Shield[alpha]
Strategy
The High-Class UFO has a Shield up from the beginning of the battle, but
you should be safe just using the party's standard attacks to defeat
this enemy. If you want to get rid of its Shield, use the Neutralizer or
the Shield Killer.
Defeat any Beautiful UFOs before attacking the High-Class UFO; the two
enemies have about the same Offense, but the Beautiful UFO is easier to
defeat.
-Ness: "bash"

Always chase after this enemy if you see it. A victory against the Master

almost always level up a party member. This enemy looks like a small red
worm outside of battle.
The Master Criminal Worm appears very rarely and always runs away from the
party, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an instant
victory. It is rare to actually have to fight this enemy in battle, but if
you do, have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to protect the
party from Fire. This enemy has a very high speed and will likely attack
first each round.
These enemies can be dealt with by just using standard attacks. Defeat the
Scalding Cup of Coffee first and the Mystical Record second if these
enemies appear in a group.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
NOTE: If Poo was carrying the Hawk Eye when he left the party, you should
get a phone call from Escargo Express telling you that they have it.
Simply call Escargo Express and have it delivered to the party when
needed.
Talk to the native standing next to the Pyramid exit and he will give the
party the Key to the Tower, the item that will give party access into
"Dungeon Man."
Next, talk to the merchant standing a little to the north. Buy a French
Fry Pan for Paula and sell whatever her previous weapon was. If Jeff has
the Heavy Bazooka or the Spectrum Beam, you will probably not need to buy
the Crusher Beam, but be sure to buy at least two Multi Bottle Rockets and
keep them in Jeff's inventory. This powerful weapon can inflict more than
1000 HP of damage to a single enemy, making it an effective boss killer.
If you can't afford any, you can wait until the party reaches Deep
Darkness, an upcoming area, before buying some.
Walk northwest from the Pyramid exit. The party should eventually come
across what looks like a large statue of a person. This is Dungeon Man, a
giant...robot...or something...that is inactive at the moment. Approach
the front of Dungeon Man and "use" the Key to the Tower to enter.
There are some enemies inside Dungeon Man, but most of them are weak and
can be defeated with just standard attacks. Go a little into Dungeon Man
until you see a telephone and a bench. "Check" the bench to rest and
recover the party; if Jeff has any broken items, he will be able to repair
them while the party rests on the bench. To the left is a Hospital that
can provide all the services a normal Hospital provides.
From the bench, walk east and then a little north. The party should come
across a three-way junction. The right path leads to a gift box containing
a Molokheiya Soup (a food item that recovers about 80 HP), and the middle
path leads to a gift box containing a Cup of Lifenoodles. Take the left
path to proceed.
Walk forward and the party should eventually reach another junction. The
path on the right leads to gift boxes containing a Snake and a Super Plush
Bear, an item that can divert about 500 HP worth of damage from party
members. Take the path on the left to proceed.
When the party reaches four ropes, climb up the third one from the left.
The other ropes lead to dead ends and signs that say strange things.
The second floor is a little bit more dangerous than the first because
Lesser Mooks lurk here. Just have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend
against its Freeze attack and use standard attacks to defeat it.
Walk south from where the party climbed up the rope and you should come
across another junction. The path going west will lead to a gift box
containing $10 and a bench. Take the path leading south to proceed.
From here on out, it should be pretty easy to make your way to the top of
the tower. Once at the top, the party will encounter Brick Road, the guy
Jeff met in Winters previously in the game.
After talking to him, walk south and fall through the "Return Hole" and a
few other holes to return to the first floor (open the gift box on the way
down to obtain an IQ Capsule; I recommend you use it on Paula). Exit
Dungeon Man.
c)Leaving Scaraba
Dungeon Man will now be a part of your party. His standard attack can
inflict up to 400 HP of damage and his "great big hug" attack can
solidify an enemy.
While Dungeon Man makes a great ally, we need to leave it behind in order
to progress in the game. Go to the southern end of Scaraba and walk
between the trees growing on a narrow strip of land. Dungeon Man will get
stuck among the trees and the party will go on without him.
Walk to the eastern end of this narrow strip of land and talk to the
tribal native standing there. Answer "yes" when prompted.
Return to Dungeon Man and talk to it. The party will enter and will have
to go to the top floor again.
From Brick Road, walk south and fall through the "Goodbye Exit," the hole
that was previously blocked by a sign. Fall through a couple more holes
and the party will end up in a previously unreachable area on the first
floor.

ITEMS
a)Monkey's Love
b)Magic Truffle
There are five Magic Truffles hidden throughout Deep Darkness. In order to
find one, you will likely need to "use" the Piggy Nose to pinpoint its
location and "check" the area to obtain it. The Piggy Nose can be bought
in the marketplace in Scaraba. I will give rough directions to each Magic
Truffle in the walkthrough.
c)Casey Bat
The Casey Bat provides the largest boost in Offense for Ness in the game
but has an accuracy of only 25%. Considering the effects of uncontrollable
crying and the high evasion rates of some enemies, the low accuracy of the
Casey Bat is enough for me to recommend you get rid of this item.

using standard attacks. Use the Monkey's Love or the Slime Generator to
pin down this enemy to prevent it from attacking. Defeat this enemy last
if it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower

f)Manly Fish
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Manly Fish in one or two rounds by
using standard attacks. Defeat this enemy last if it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Attacks
-Freeze[beta]
-Healing[omega]
Comments: Healing[omega] is only a problem when it's used to revive a
previously defeated enemy. Prevent this from happening by
defeating this enemy before attacking any other.
-Hypnosis[alpha]
-Paralysis[alpha]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Manly Fish's Brother within two rounds
by using standard attacks. It should not be necessary to use a PSI
Shield to defend against Freeze[beta] as long as each party member has
at least 120~150 HP. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"

h)Master Barf
Recommended Level: 57
Attacks
-Continuous attack
Damage: 100~150 HP (Ness)
100~150 HP (Paula)
100~150 HP (Jeff)
Comments: Master Barf will attack twice when it uses this attack. The
above damage estimates are for one attack only.
Strategy
If Paula has a good amount of PP, have her use Freeze[omega]. Have Ness
use his standard attack and save PP for Lifeup, while Jeff either shoots
or uses the Heavy Bazooka.
Use a Multi Bottle Rocket if you want to end this battle quickly. Note
that the Jar of Fly Honey will do nothing to Master Barf.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower

Multi Bottle Rocket
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 10~20 HP (Ness)
10~20 HP (Paula)
10~20 HP (Jeff)
-Hypnosis[alpha]
Comments: The Pit Bull Slug cannot use PSI for the first four rounds of
battle.
-Vacuum attack
Effect: reduce a single target's Offense and Defense by about 6%
Strategy
One or two hits from any party member's standard attack should defeat
the Pit Bull Slug. Defeat this enemy last if it appears in a group. This
is probably the best enemy to fight if you want to level up, but they
mostly appear near the end of the swamp.
-Ness: "bash"
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
k)Zap Eel
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Zap Eel within one round by using
standard attacks. One hit from Freeze[beta] and a hit from another party
member's standard attack should also defeat this enemy. Attack the Zap
Eel only before defeating any Manly Fish's Brothers if it appears in a
group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
NOTE1 : If Poo was carrying the Hawk Eye when he left the party, you
should get a phone call from Escargo Express telling you that they
have it. To get the Hawk Eye back, simply call Escargo Express and
have it delivered to the party.
NOTE2: The party will take damage while walking through the deepest
portions of the swamp, but it is not as damaging as the frequency
of the red flashes suggests. Each party member will take 2 HP of
damage about every 5 seconds. If you see red flashes at a faster
rate than this, it is because each party member is taking damage at
different times.
NOTE3: There are five Magic Truffles (recovers 80 PP) hidden throughout
Deep Darkness growing at the base of trees. To help you find them,
buy the Piggy Nose at the Scaraba marketplace, and use it when
you're somewhat close to a Truffle to pinpoint its location.
"Check" the location to obtain the Truffle. I will give rough
directions on how to find each Magic Truffle in the walkthrough
below.
If your party needs to recover, talk to the first monkey you see to rest
for free.
Walk into the swamp and go a little to the east. There is a Magic Truffle
to the left and a little bit down of the lone tree growing out of the
water. "Use" the Piggy Nose to the left of this tree to find its exact
location and "check" the area to obtain it.
Walk all the way to the east and check behind the lone tree growing in the
dirt to obtain another Magic Truffle (thanks to: J. Pampalon).
Walk onto the elevated area of grassy land where all the monkeys are. Talk
to the monkey on the right and answer "yes" to its request and it will
give the party the Monkey's Love, an item that can solidify a single
random target in battle. This item can be used by any party member, so go
ahead and sell or store the Slime Generator if you want. I usually give
this item to Poo and have him use it when his "bash" is not very
effective.
Walk a little to the left and you will see a businessman and a doctor
standing near each other. Talk to the businessman and he will offer to
sell you either some items or the services of the doctor (if you talk
directly to the doctor, he will not do anything for you). The businessman
is not selling anything that great, though if you did not buy the Lucky
Coin from Summers you should buy the Charm Coin here. The doctor can heal
any status effect the party may have but you do not actually have to pay
him. When the businessman tells you about the $500 fee, answer "yes" when
prompted and then answer "let him pay" when prompted again to avoid paying
the fee.
If Jeff does not have at least two Multi Bottle Rockets in his inventory,
talk to the arms dealer and buy one or two before venturing into the
swamp. This is probably the most convenient place to buy Multi Bottle
Rockets in the game, so come back here whenever you need more.
Begin walking south into the swamp and the party will eventually come
across a snorkel coming out of the water. This is Deep Darkness's "ATM
Machine." Avoid withdrawing money from this man, however, as he will
charge a handling fee equal to the amount you withdraw.
The party just has to walk through Deep Darkness and reach the other side
of the swamp. The enemies here aren't too hard, but some of them can be
annoying and powerful. A lot of enemies here seem to be susceptible to the
Monkey's Love and the Slime Generator, so you can try to use those items
to pin down some enemies you are having trouble against.
Walk south into the swamp and "use" the Hawk Eye when the party is in the
darkness. The swamp will become visible and the Hawk Eye will disappear
from the party's inventory.
Keep walking south and then turn northwest. The party should enter into a
pretty wide area. There is a gift box to the northwest that contains Beef
Jerky, a food item that recovers about 150 HP.
A little further northwest of the gift box is a Magic Truffle hidden among
the trees. From the gift box, walk northwest and then a little to the left
along the edge of the trees. When the edge of the trees goes down a bit,
"use" the Piggy Nose to locate the Magic Truffle and "check" the area to
obtain it.
From the gift box containing the Beef Jerky, walk to the west and you
should see a bird talking about Tenda Village. Open the gift box here to
obtain an IQ Capsule and either use it on Paula or save it for Poo, who
will be returning to the party soon.
Go back a little to the east and then turn south. The party should
eventually come across a crashed helicopter, likely the one Pokey took off
in back in Fourside. Open the gift box here to obtain a Cup of
Lifenoodles.
Walk to the west and the party should be in a deep area of the swamp with
two lone trees growing out of the water. To the northwest of the left-hand
tree is a Magic Truffle.
Continue walking west and onto the area of dry land. Open the gift box to
obtain a Souvenir Coin and equip it on either Paula or Jeff.
To the north is another gift box containing a Rock Candy, an item that
should be used with a Sugar Packet or a Jar of Delisauce. Use the Rock
Candy on Paula or Poo with either condiment to increase a random stat by
two.
From the gift box containing the Rock Candy, walk a little south, east,
and then north into a narrow path of deep water. At the end of this narrow
path should be a character that resembles the Big Pile of Puke and Master
Belch back in Grapefruit Falls. "Talk" to it to start a mini-boss battle
against Master Barf.
Although Master Barf is the same character as Master Belch, the Jar of
Fly Honey no longer works to distract it. Have Ness use his standard
attack and save PP for Lifeup while Paula uses Freeze[omega] or Freeze
[gamma]. Have Jeff use his standard attack or the Heavy Bazooka. At the
end of the battle, Poo should join the party and finish off Master Barf.
Master Barf will drop the Casey Bat when defeated. This weapon is the
strongest weapon available to Ness in the game, but it has a very low
accuracy and often misses. It is a very unreliable weapon, so I recommend
you sell it (for $19) or discard it.
Walk north and the party should reach another wide area of the swamp.
There is one last Magic Truffle in this area but it's a bit hard to
explain where it is. There should be two floating logs in this area. From
the top log, walk directly north to the edge of the trees. The Magic
Truffle is a bit to the left from this spot (it is behind a tree). "Use"
the Piggy Nose to help you locate it.
Walk all the way to the west and onto dry land. Enter the cave in the
northwest corner to reach Tenda Village.
c)Crisis in Winters
None of the Tendas here have much to say yet, but the party can rest at
the inn for free or use the hot springs to heal any status effects.
South of the entrance is a trash can and a telephone, among other "weird
junk." Open the trash can to obtain the Death Ray, a weapon for Jeff.
If you talk to the village chief, the Tenda with the horns, it will talk
about a book that can help the Tendas overcome their shyness. Keep this
book in mind and exit the village.
Outside, the party should get a phone call from Apple Kid, talking about
an Eraser Eraser Machine. Teleport to Winters.

Outline
1.Stonehenge
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Sword of Kings
The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Sword of Kings, the
only effective weapon for Poo in the game. The Sword increases Poo's
Offense by 30, but requires a lot of luck or a lot of patience to obtain
(the first time I obtained this weapon, I had to defeat more than 100
Starman Supers; the next time, I fought only 3). Be warned that all
enemies in Stonehenge will disappear once the boss at the end of this area
is defeated, and the Sword of Kings cannot be found anywhere else.
b)Saturn Ribbon
Talk to the rescued Mr. Saturn after defeating the Starman Deluxe to
obtain the Saturn Ribbon.
c)Broken Trumpet
The Defense Shower increases the entire party's Defense by 6% each time
it's used. It's mostly unnecessary, so give it to Escargo Express.
GIFT BOXES
NOTE: The enemies in the Stonehenge base will disappear once the boss of
this area is defeated, making it easier to open any gift boxes you
missed.

-Fire a beam
Damage: 70~110 HP (Ness)
65~90 HP (Paula)
70~110 HP (Jeff)

Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Atomic Power Robot in one round with
standard attacks if it does not recover its HP. When facing a group of
enemies, concentrate the party's attack on a another target and defeat
the Atomic Power Robot last.
The Monkey's Love and the Slime Generator seem to be effective against
this enemy, so use those items if you want to prevent it from
replenishing a fuel supply.
Poo's "mirror" can be used on the Atomic Power Robot to recover your
party without using PP. This method requires some patience to use, but
it can be a cost-effective way of recovering.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower

recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
c)Mook Senior
Attacks
-Fire[alpha]
-Freeze[beta]
-Lifeup[alpha]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Mook Senior in one round by using
standard attacks. Use PSI Shield[sigma] if you face more than one Mook
Senior. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group.

Healing[gamma], if a party member is diamondized
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower

30~60 HP (Paula)
50~70 HP (Jeff)
70~100 HP (Poo)
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
-Shield[alpha]
-Guard
Effect: reduce damage inflicted by "bash" by 50% for a single round
-Use a Sudden Guts Pill
Effect: doubles target's Guts
Comments: I don't think the Starman's beam attack can hit with a
SMAAAASH!!, and I don't think enemies can survive a mortal
blow, so I'm not sure what the point of this move is.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Starman in one or two rounds with
standard attacks, provided it does not "guard." Defeat this enemy only
before any Atomic Power Robots.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower

e)Starman Deluxe
Recommended Level: 62
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 110~160 HP (Ness)
100~140 HP (Paula)
110~160 HP (Jeff)
150~200 HP (Poo)
-Starstorm[alpha]
Comments: Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend
against this attack.
-PSI Shield[beta]
Comments: Avoid using PSI against the Starman Deluxe, as it has a PSI
Power Shield up from the beginning of the battle.
Strategy
Make sure each party member's HP is above 150 before starting the
battle. If Jeff has a Multi Bottle Rocket, you should be able to win
this battle in one or two rounds. Have Paula use a PSI Shield[sigma]
just in case the Starman Deluxe uses Starstorm, and have Ness and Poo
use their standard attacks. The Monkey's Love occasionally works against
this enemy, so have Poo use it if you want to play a little more
defensively. Avoid using PSI attacks such as Freeze because this boss
has a PSI Power Shield up from the beginning of the battle.
If Jeff does not have any Bottle Rockets, have him use a Shield Killer
until it works (don't use a Neutralizer). If he doesn't have the Shield
Killer, just have him "shoot" or use the Heavy Bazooka. Have Paula use
PSI Shield[sigma] and her strongest Freeze attack if Jeff successfully
removes the shield; otherwise, have her "bash" while the Starman Deluxe
is shielded. Have Poo use the Monkey's Love in each turn, as the item
works about 25 to 50% of the time. Ness should "bash" and recover the
party as necessary; it may also help to use a Sudden Guts Pill on him.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
-Poo: "bash"
Monkey's Love
Freeze[gamma], if the Starman Deluxe is unshielded
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
f)Starman Super
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 60~90 HP (Ness)
30~70 HP (Paula)
60~90 HP (Jeff)
70~120 HP (Poo)
-Healing[omega]
-PSI Shield[beta]
-Guard
Effect: reduce the damage inflicted by "bash" by 50% for one round
-Call for help
Effect: a Starman joins the battle
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Starman Super in one or two rounds by
using standard attacks, provided it does not guard. Defeat this enemy
first if it appears in a group. Avoid using PSI attacks, as this enemy
is protected by a PSI Power Shield from the beginning of the battle.
The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Sword of Kings, the
only effective weapon for Poo in the game.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
PSI Magnet[omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
PSI Magnet[omega]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Traveling South
If Jeff doesn't have at least two Multi Bottle Rockets, teleport to Deep
Darkness and buy a couple from the arms dealer.
NOTE: Take the Pencil Eraser along with you to eliminate a pencil statue
on the way to Dr. Andonuts's Lab. This should be last pencil statue
seen in the game.
The new enemies in Winters aren't too tough and you should do all right by
just using standard attacks. If you end up fighting a group, give priority
to defeating the Lesser Mook first and use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend
against its Freeze attacks if you have to. If the party gets seriously
injured, there are a couple of tents along the way where the party can
rest for free.
At the lake, talk to the Bubble Monkey to ride Tessie to the other side.
Walk south and "use" the Pencil Eraser on the pencil statue to create a
shortcut. From here, it should be easy to get to Dr. Andonuts's Lab.
Talk to the Mouse inside Dr. Andonuts's Lab to obtain the Eraser Eraser.
"Check" the Instant Revitalizing Device to recover before going to
Stonehenge.
"Use" the Eraser Eraser on the eraser statue to eliminate it. The Eraser
Eraser will no longer be used in the game, so give it to Escargo Express
after this.
The Stonehenge Base is a pretty long area with lots of enemies, but you
should not need to make special preparations. PP may become low near the
end, but Magic Butterflies can be found within Stonehenge, and you can use
PSI Magnet to recover PP. Any Magic Truffles the party obtained in Deep
Darkness can help here as well, but it is not critical you have them. Have
Poo use Lifeup and Healing instead of Ness for the most part, as Poo can
use PSI Magnet. It may also help to have Jeff use the Hungry-HP Sucker
whenever you have the opportunity to help conserve Ness and Poo's PP.
From the eraser statue walk south and through the cave opening into the
second area. A little bit into this area, you should see two paths
available to you. Both paths lead to the same place, but the right path
may be a little shorter. Take either path and go to the next area.
Open the gift box in the third area to obtain a Spicy Jerky, a food item
that recovers about 250 HP. Walk east and into the next area.
There should be two paths available to you in the fourth area. The right
path leads to a gift box containing a Guts Capsule, an item I recommend
you use on Ness as soon as it is obtained. Take the southern path to
proceed.
Another two paths should be available to the party a little way into the
fifth area. The top path leads to a gift box containing a Cup of
Lifenoodles and the right path leads to the next part of Stonehendge.
There are no more Mook Seniors here, but you will start encountering
Starman Supers. This enemy can be dealt with by just using standard
attacks, but always defeat them first in battle, as they can revive
defeated cohorts with their Healing[omega].
NOTE: The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Sword of
Kings, the only effective weapon for Poo in the game. The Sword
increases Poo's Offense by 30, but requires a lot of luck or a lot
of patience to obtain (the first time I obtained this weapon, I had
to defeat more than 100 Starman Supers; the next time, I fought
only 3). Be warned that all enemies in Stonehenge will disappear
once the boss at the end of this area is defeated, and the Sword of
Kings cannot be found in any other part of the game.
Walk to the right from where the party enters to reach a gift box
containing a Broken Harmonica, an item Jeff can repair into the Baddest
Beam (55 IQ required). If Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka, however, you
probably won't need this item. Walk down the ladder in front of the
entrance to proceed.
Walk to the east and open the gift box to obtain a PSI Caramel. Use this
item on a party member who is low on PP.
Continue walking east to reach a room where some Exit Mouse live. You can
use them to go back outside if necessary. Otherwise, continue walking east
into the next area.
There is a new enemy lurking in this maze-like area, but it can be taken
care of with standard attacks. All the way to the right of the entrance
and a little to the north is a gift box containing a Broken Trumpet. Jeff
can repair this item into the Defense Shower, an item that can
temporarily increase the entire party's Defense by about 6% in battle.
I've never felt a need to use this item, so you can leave it behind if you
want.
Walk north from the entrance and follow the path to the northeast. At the
end of this path, there should be two gift boxes containing a Pixie's
Bracelet and a Speed Capsule. I recommend you equip the Pixie's Bracelet
on Paula and use the Speed Capsule on either Paula or Poo. Enter the door
to the east.
The party should be in a room with tubes filled with abducted people,
including the Apple Kid. Go into the next room to encounter the Starman
Deluxe, the boss of this area. Make sure each party member's HP is above
150 and "talk" to it to start the battle.
If Jeff has a Multi Bottle Rocket, you should be able to win this battle
in one or two rounds. Have Paula use a PSI Shield[sigma] just in case the
Starman Deluxe is able to use Starstorm and have Ness and Poo use their
standard attacks. If Jeff does not have a Bottle Rocket, have him use the
Shield Killer until it works to remove the Starman Deluxe's shield, and
have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack in subsequent rounds.
If Jeff does not have a Shield Killer (don't use the Neutralizer) have him
"shoot" or use the Heavy Bazooka. Have Paula "bash" and Poo use the
Monkey's Love while the Straman Deluxe is shielded. Have Ness "bash" and
use Lifeup as necessary.
The base will shut down after the Starman Deluxe is defeated and all
enemies will disappear from the area. Go into the previous room and talk
to the Mr. Saturn. It will give the party the Saturn Ribbon, an item for
Paula. If Paula had the Souvenir Coin, equip that on Jeff or Ness.
Next, talk to the Apple Kid about the Overcoming Shyness Book and head
back outside. Obtain and "use" an Exit Mouse to make things quicker,
unless there were some gift boxes you did not obtain on the way to the
Starman Deluxe.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
2.Help the Tendas
WALKTHROUGH
After defeating the Starman Deluxe and talking to Apple Kid, teleport to
Onett and go to the Library.
The party now needs to "check" the bookshelves on the first floor of the
Library for the Shyness Book. The book seems to always be located on the
left-most section of the bookshelf in the eastern room.
Teleport to Tenda Village and "use" the Shyness Book while standing next
to the Chief. The Chief will read the book to everyone in the village and
afterwards give the party the Tendakraut, an item that will help you later
in the game.
A voice will then take over and start talking to you, the player. Just as
Tony did previously in the game, this voice will ask for your name. I
recommend you give your real name, as the game uses it for an interesting
effect at the end of the game.
EXTRAS
Now that the Tendas are no longer shy, you can do a few new things here.
First, you can talk to the Tenda chief and it will give you a Bag of
Dragnoite, an item that inflicts about 250~400 HP of damage to all enemies
(Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds).
Next, talk to the villager near the Chief and answer "yes" to its offer.
A funky background will fill the screen and some scrolling text will talk
about the party's adventure (this is very similar to what happens when you
drink coffee in Saturn Valley). The text is somewhat long, however, so
read it only if you are really curious (it doesn't say anything
important).
There is also a Tenda in the northwest corner of the Village that will
trade items for Horns of Life. Each time the party gives the Tenda a Horn
of Life, the Tenda will give the party whatever item is at the top of its
list. Here is a list of what each item does:

ENEMIES
a)Conducting Spirit
Attacks
-Flash[alpha]
-Flash[beta]
-Thunder[beta]
-Thunder[gamma]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Conducting Spirit in one or two rounds
by using standard attacks. You can also have Paula use Freeze[gamma] and
follow it up with standard attacks from the other party members to
defeat this enemy before it can cause serious damage. If the Conducting
Spirit appears with an Uncontrollable Sphere, have Paula use PSI Shield
[sigma] and Poo use Freeze[beta] or [gamma]. Defeat this enemy first if
it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover any party member who does not have the Franklin badge
with Lifeup if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta] or Freeze[gamma]
PSI Shield[sigma], if facing an Uncontrollable Sphere also
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
Freeze[beta] or Freeze[gamma]
recover any party member who does not have the Franklin badge
with Lifeup if HP falls to 120 or lower
Recommended Level: 64
Attacks
-Hungry HP-Sucker
Effect: drains about 10~20% of all party members' HP and gives it to the
Electro Specter
-Neutralizer
Effect: reset stat changes and removes shields; affects all enemies and
party members
-Shield Killer
Effect: removes any shield protecting a single target
Strategy
With only one attack that inflicts a significant amount of damage, the
Electro Specter is one of the easiest Sanctuary Bosses in the game. It
is protected by a PSI Power Shield from the beginning of the battle, so
have Jeff use the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer to eliminate it.
Thereafter, have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack. You
can have Jeff use a Multi Bottle Rocket, though it probably won't be
necessary.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[omega], if unshielded
-Poo: "bash"
Freeze[gamma], if unshielded
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
c)Fobby
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 40~60 HP (Ness)
10~20 HP (Paula)
10~20 HP (Jeff)
60~80 HP (Poo)
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Comments: The Fobby can't use PSI for the first four rounds of every
battle.
-Brainshock[alpha]
-HP-Sucker
Effect: drains 10~20% of a single target's max HP and gives it to the
user
Comments: This attack has a pretty low success rate and is nothing to
worry about.
Strategy
About one hit from Ness's "bash" or two hits from any other party
member's standard attack should defeat the Fobby. Try to divide up
Ness's attack and Paula and Jeff's attack to defeat two Fobbies in one
round. Have Poo attack the same target as Ness just in case Ness fails
to defeat a Fobby in one hit. Use Lifeup to recover a party member whose
HP is lower than 100 if facing a large group of Fobbies.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
PSI Magnet[omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
PSI Magnet[omega]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
Vulnerable: Freeze
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 80~110 HP (Ness)
50~80 HP (Paula)
50~80 HP (Jeff)
90~130 HP (Poo)
-Shield[beta]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Hyper Spinning Robo in one or two
rounds by using standard attacks. If this enemy uses Shield[beta], have
Jeff use the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer, or have Paula and Poo use
Freeze[beta]. Attack this enemy after defeating any Conducting Spirits.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta], if Shielded
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Neutralizer or Shield Killer, if Shielded
-Poo: "bash"
Freeze[beta], if Shielded
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
e)Uncontrollable Sphere
-Standard attack
Damage: 70~100 HP (Ness)
40~60 HP (Paula)
40~60 HP (Jeff)
90~130 HP (Poo)
-Fire[alpha]
-Fire[beta]
Strategy
This enemy has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Broken Antenna, an item
that Jeff can repair into the Gaia Beam. The Gaia Beam is the most
powerful weapon in the game available to Jeff but requires a lot of luck
or a lot of patience to obtain.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
PSI Shield[sigma]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Lumine Hole
Before entering the Seventh Sanctuary Cave, make sure that Jeff has at
least two Multi Bottle Rockets. Teleport to Deep Darkness and buy a few
from the arms dealer if Jeff does not have any.
After curing the Tendas of their shyness, talk to the Tenda standing next
to a big rock in the southwest corner of Tenda Village. This Tenda is
very strong and will lift the rock up for the party, revealing a hole
that leads into the Seventh Sanctuary Cave.
At the bottom of this hole is a rock with a face. The party can "talk" to
this rock and a few other rocks located here and there in the Seventh
Sanctuary Cave, but none of them say anything really important. The party
has to talk to the first rock, however, as it will not let the party into
the Sanctuary Cave until it's talked to.
The enemies found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave are the Fobby, the
Uncontrollable Sphere, the Hyper Spinning Robo, and the Conducting Spirit.
The Fobbies tend to attack in large groups, and are the best enemies to
fight if you want to level the party up. Just one or two hits from a
standard attack should defeat a Fobby. The Uncontrollably Sphere and the
Conducting Spirit are found in the lower level of the Sanctuary Cave and
can use pretty powerful PSI attacks. Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] if
you want to defend against their PSI and use standard attacks to defeat
them. If you are having trouble against the Conducting Spirit, use Freeze
[beta] or [gamma]. Defeat the Uncontrollable Sphere last in any battle, as
it explodes upon defeat. Hyper Spinning Robos can be dealt with by just
using standard attacks or Freeze if it uses Shield[beta].
NOTE: The Uncontrollable Sphere has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Broken
Antenna, an item Jeff can repair into his most powerful weapon in
the game.
Walk west into the cave and the party should soon come across a ladder
going down. The ladder leads to a gift box containing a Super Bomb, an
item that does not need to be obtained.
After the first ladder, the party should come across another choice of
different paths: a hole and a ladder to the west and a path leading north.
The hole leads to a gift box containing a Super Bomb (the same one
mentioned above) and the ladder leads to two gift boxes containing an IQ
Capsule and the Diadem of Kings, an item that can be equipped on Poo. I
recommend you obtain the two items and use them as soon as they are
obtained. Follow the path leading north to proceed. At the end of this
path is a gift box containing a Luck Capsule. Use it on whomever you want.
Climb down the ladder near the gift box to move on.
Follow the lower level passage and the party should come across a gift
box containing a Rock Candy. Do not use this item unless the party has a
Sugar Packet or a Jar of Delisauce, as using the Rock Candy with either
item will increase the stat boost to two (condiments can be bought in
Twoson or Scaraba). I recommend you use this item on Paula or Poo.
Continue following the path and the party should come across a ladder.
Whether you want to go up the ladder or continue following the path
depends on what items you want. Going up the ladder will lead to two gift
boxes containing a Cup of Lifenoodles and a Luxury Jerky, a food item
that recovers about 300 HP. Staying on the same path will lead to a gift
box containing a Bottle of DXwater, an item that recovers about 40 PP for
Poo but only 1 PP for Ness and Paula. Both paths lead to the Shining
Spot, though continuing on the passage is a little shorter.
Before talking to the Shining Spot, open the gift box near it to obtain
the Rabbit's Foot. This item can be very helpful against an enemy that
appears near the end of the game, so have Paula hold on to it until then.
The Seventh Sanctuary Boss is the Electro Specter. With only one attack
that inflicts a significant amount of damage, the Electro Specter is one
of the easiest Sanctuary Bosses in the game. It is protected by a PSI
Power Shield from the beginning of the battle, so have Jeff use the
Neutralizer or the Shield Killer to eliminate it. Thereafter, have Paula
and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack. You can have Jeff use a Multi
Bottle Rocket, though it's probably not necessary. Have Ness use his
"bash" attack and use Lifeup to recover any party member whose HP falls to
150 or lower.

Outline
Equipment:
ITEMS
a)Sea Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and provides protection from Fire, Freeze, and Flash
Obtained: gift box, in the northeast corner of the Underworld
Obtain the Sea Pendant and equip it on Paula. If Paula was equipped with
the Flame Pendant, give that to Jeff.
b)Cloak of Kings
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Poo; increases Defense and Speed
Obtained: gift box, northeast of the Eighth Sanctuary Cave
The Cloak of Kings can be obtained on the way to the Eighth Sanctuary
Cave. Poo will likely end up having the highest Speed in the party after
equipping this item.
The Chomposaur has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Magic Fry Pan. The
Offense increase is small and I don't recommend you go out of your way to
obtain this weapon, but it can be used to increase the chances that Paula
gets a SMAAAASH!! hit or survive a mortal blow.

ENEMIES
a)Chomposaur
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire[alpha]
-Fire[beta]
-Fire[gamma]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Chomposaur in about four rounds with
standard attacks. Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to
defend against Fire. Use Freeze[gamma] or [omega] to inflict extra
damage.
The Chomposaur has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Magic Fry Pan, a
weapon for Paula that increases Offense by 50 and Guts by 100. The
Offense increase is small and I don't recommend you go out of your way
to obtain this weapon, but it can be used to increase the chances that
Paula gets a SMAAAASH!! hit and survive a mortal blow.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
-Paula: (first turn) PSI Shield[sigma]

recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
b)Ego Orb
Vulnerable: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 80~110 HP (Ness)
50~90 HP (Paula)
50~90 HP (Jeff)
80~110 HP (Poo)
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Ego Orb in one or two rounds by using
standard attacks.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: "bash"

recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 120 or lower
c)Wetnosaur
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 200~250 HP (Ness)
170~230 HP (Paula)
170~230 HP (Jeff)
200~250 HP (Poo)
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Wetnosaur in about three rounds using
standard attacks. Use Freeze[gamma] or [omega] to inflict extra damage.
The Monkey's Love and the Slime Generator seem to be somewhat effective
against the Wetnosaur, so use one of those items in each round to try to
pin down this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[gamma] or [omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Slime Generator
-Poo: "bash"
Freeze[gamma]
Monkey's Love
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
Located in three spots in the Underworld are Hot Springs that erupt
periodically. There are Blue Hot Springs located in the southeast and
southwest areas of the Underworld and a Red Hot Spring directly north of a
Tenda settlement. The Blue ones completely recover HP and PP, and the Red
one heals all status effects. To recover at a Hot Spring, simply have Ness
stand on top of one and wait for it to erupt.
The enemies that can be found here are the Chomposaur, the Wetnosaur, and
the Ego Orb. The Chomposaur is the one to worry about, as it can use Fire
and powerful physical attacks. If you face one, have Paula use PSI Shield
[sigma] in the first round and use Freeze[gamma] or [omega] if necessary.
The Monkey's Love and the Slime Generator also work relatively well
against the Chomposaur, so use those items in each round to try to pin
down this large dinosaur and prevent it from attacking. The Chomposaur is
protected from a Power Shield from the beginning of the battle, but only
use a Shield Killer if you want to remove it; otherwise, use three
standard attacks to eliminate the shield. The Wetnosaur and the Ego Orb
can generally be dealt with by using standard attacks. Try to keep each
party member's HP above 150 when facing these enemies.
NOTE: The Chomposaur has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Magic Fry Pan, a
weapon for Paula that increases Offense by 50 and Guts by 100. The
Offense increase is small and I don't recommend you go out of your
way to obtain this weapon, but it can be used to increase the
chances that Paula gets a SMAAAASH!! hit or survive a mortal blow.
One of the things you may find annoying about the Underworld is how
slowly the party walks here. A somewhat crude way to speed up the party
is to use Teleport[alpha] to travel over more wide open areas (you can
use the control pad to change the direction the party is moving while
using Teleport). There are many trees and other obstacles the party can
bump into in the Underworld to prevent the party from teleporting off to
another town.
Immediately upon falling into the Underworld from the Seventh Sanctuary
Location, walk a little to the south into the area with less tress and
use Teleport[beta]. Select the "Underworld" and the party should end up
in a little more convenient area of this large place.
To the left should be a small fenced in area with two Tendas (it's a
little hard to make them out, but they are Tendas) and a bird that acts as
a telephone. From this fenced in area you should be able to see a tiny,
white box with a red ribbon on the other side of the rock wall to west.
The white box is a gift box containing a Brain Food Lunch. Walk to the
other side of the wall if you want to obtain it.
Directly west of the gift box containing the Sea Pendant is a gift box
containing a Guts Capsule. If you obtain it, I recommend you use it on
Ness.
There is one more item that can be found in the Underworld, but you can
save it for later. The item I am talking about is the Cloak of Kings, a
piece of armor for Poo. It can be obtained on the way to the Eighth
Sanctuary Location in the southwest corner of the Underworld.
There is a talking rock in this village that talks about the Eight
Sanctuary Spots in the game. The rock basically summarizes the objective
of Ness's quest, but it is not necessary to talk to.
There is a Tenda here that sells some pretty good items. Buy the Ultimate
Bat and the Holy Fry Pan for Ness and Paula and a Shiny Coin for whomever
needs it. Altogether, the party will need about $9778 to buy what they
will need. There is a Tenda here that acts like a ATM, but it will charge
a handling fee if you withdraw money from it.

390~400 HP (Poo)
Comments: The description of this attack in the battle dialogue window
is identical to the biting attack above, but this attack
inflicts much more damage.
-Shield[beta]
Strategy
This battle is divided between the Carbon Dog first and the Diamond Dog
second, with no break in-between. How you fight the Carbon Dog depends
on how much PP Paula and Poo have. If they have a sufficient amount of
PP (at least 150 PP for Paula and 100 PP for Poo), have them use their
strongest Freeze attacks. Otherwise, have them use their standard
attacks. Have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks or the Heavy
Bazooka for Jeff. Have Ness (or Poo) use Lifeup to recover any party
member whose HP falls below 150.
The Diamond Dog is protected from a Power Shield from the beginning of
its appearance, so have Jeff use the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer at
the first opportunity. Thereafter, have Jeff use any Multi Bottle
Rockets he may have. Have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze
attacks and Ness use his standard attack. Have Ness (or Poo, if
necessary) use Lifeup to recover any party member whose HP falls to 150
or lower.
-Ness: "bash"

Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire[beta]
-Fire[gamma]
-PSI Shield[omega]
-Paralysis[alpha]
Strategy
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round and have the other
party members use their standard attacks. If Paula or Poo is low on PP,
use PSI Magnet[omega]. Use Healing[gamma] on a paralyzed party member as
soon as possible. Attack this enemy after defeating any Soul Consuming
Flames. Make sure that any party member unprotected from Fire has at
least 150 HP before facing the Major Psychic Psycho.
The Major Psychic Psycho has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Star
Pendant, the best "body" armor in the game. In addition to increasing
Defense, this item provides protection from Fire, Freeze, Flash, and
Paralysis, but requires a lot of luck or a lot of patience to obtain.

Attacks

Strategy
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round and have the other
party members use their standard attacks. Use PSI Manget[omega] if Paula
or Poo is low on PP. Defeat the Psychic Psycho last if it appears in a
group. Make sure that any party member unprotected from Fire has at
least 150 HP before facing this enemy.

Vulnerable: Freeze
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Breathe fire
Damage: 150~250 HP to everyone

Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Soul Consuming Flame in one round by
using standard attacks. One hit from Freeze[gamma] and a hit from any
party member's standard attack can also defeat this enemy. Defeat the
Soul Consuming Flame first in any battle. Make sure that any party
member unprotected from Fire has at least 150 HP before engaging.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower

recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
If Jeff doesn't have at least two Multi Bottle Rockets, teleport to Deep
Darkness and buy a couple from the arms dealer there. He should also have
the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer on hand.
You should also have found the Sea Pendant in the northeast corner of the
Underworld and equipped it on Paula.
There is a blue hot spring near the Eighth Sanctuary Cave that the party
can use the recover HP and PP. Just stand on top of the hot spring and
wait for it to erupt. There is also a telephone here where the party can
save. Enter the cave when the party is ready.
This place may seem confusing at first, but it's essentially divided into
two main paths. The first path leads to a gift box containing a Bag of
Dragonite. If you want it, climb up the first couple of ropes you see and
follow the path to obtain it. The second path leads to the Shining Spot
and a few gift boxes on the way.
NOTE: The Major Psychic Psycho has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Star
Pendant, the best "body" armor in the game. In addition to
increasing Defense, this item provides protection from Fire, Freeze,
Flash, and Paralysis, but requires a lot of luck or a lot of
patience to obtain.
From the entrance of the cave, walk into the first cave door you see to
find a gift box containing a Speed Capsule. I recommend you use it on
Paula or Poo. Exit this room.
Walk to the east until a puddle of lava blocks the party's path and enter
the second cave door. Go through this small room and walk all the way to
the eastern end of the Sanctuary Cave. There should be a gift box here
containing a Cherub's Band. Obtain it and equip it on Paula. If Paula was
equipped with the Pixie's Bracelet, I recommend you equip that on Jeff. Go
back a little and climb up the rope.
From here, there should be three paths available to the party: two cave
openings and a rope. The cave opening on the left leads to the Magic
Butterfly room. If there is no Magic Butterfly, exit and reenter the room
until one appears. Recover HP with Lifeup and PP as needed. The rope leads
to a Horn of Life, an item equivalent to the Cup of Lifenoodles. Enter the
cave opening on the right to proceed.
The next junction you should come across will be two cave openings. Enter
the cave opening on the right to find a gift box containing a Moon Beam
Gun, a weapon for Jeff. Equip it on Jeff if he does not have the Broken
Antenna or the Gaia Beam. Enter the cave opening on the left to proceed.
From here, it should be pretty straightforward to the Shining Spot.
Before facing the Sanctuary Boss, make sure that each party member has at
least 150 HP. This battle is divided between the Carbon Dog first and the
Diamond Dog second, with no break in-between. How you fight the Carbon
Dog depends on how much PP Paula and Poo have. If they have a sufficient
amount of PP (at least 150 PP for Paula and 100 PP for Poo), have them
use their strongest Freeze attacks. Otherwise, use their standard attacks.
Have Ness and Jeff use their standard attacks or the Heavy Bazooka. Use
Lifeup on any party member whose HP falls below 150.
The Diamond Dog is protected from a Power Shield from the beginning of
its appearance, so have Jeff use the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer the
first time it appears. Thereafter, use any Multi Bottle Rockets Jeff has.
Have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze attacks and Ness use his
standard attack. Recover any party member whose HP falls to 150 or lower.
IMPORTANT: Ness will be adventuring alone for awhile after recording all
melodies. In preparation, equip your best defensive items on
him and give him the Franklin Badge once the battle is over
(leave whatever is equipped on his "arms"; a better bracelet
can be obtained soon). It may also help for him to have a Brain
Food Lunch or a Magic Truffle. Leave at least two empty spaces
in his inventory; give away Cups of Lifenoodles or other items
to other party members if necessary.
After defeating the final sanctuary boss, enter the cave opening and
record the eighth melody.

ENEMIES
Attacks
-Bomb
Damage: 50~130 HP
-Super Bomb
Damage: 140~400 HP
Strategy
If you face only one of these things, have Ness "bash" and recover when
his HP falls to 150 or lower. If you face multiple Care Free Bombs,
you'll have to be a little more careful in how you manage the rolling HP
counter. Recover with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower, but
wait until the HP counter reaches its maximum before attacking with
standard attacks again. Even if Ness is mortally wounded, don't use
Lifeup[gamma] until the HP counter rolls down to about 150~200. If
you're fast (and lucky) enough, Ness should only have to use Lifeup once
in most battles against this enemy.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if he is mortally wounded and HP
rolls down to 200
b)Electro Swoosh
Attacks
-Send a greeting
Effect: none
-Charge forward
Damage: 190~260 HP
Comments: The Electro Swoosh will always attack in the above order,
starting the pattern over again in the fifth round.
Strategy
About three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Electro Swoosh.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
Attacks
Strategy
About three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the French Kiss of
Death. Use Healing[beta] to cure Ness after the battle is over. Defeat
this enemy only before any Mr. Molecules.
-Ness: "bash"
d)Kraken
Attacks
-Generate a tornado
Damage: 100~130 HP
-Flash[beta]
-Breathe fire
Damage: 150~250 HP
Comments: If Ness has Fire protective equipment, this attack will only
inflict about 10~20 HP of damage.
Strategy
About five hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Kraken. If Ness
starts uncontrollably crying, use Healing[beta].
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to about 120~150 or
lower
e)Loaded Dice
Attacks
Strategy
The Loaded Dice should be defeated by one or two hits from Ness's
standard attack. Defeat this enemy first in any battle. Like all gift
box enemies, this one can be evaded and easily approached from behind
outside of battle because it can only move in a straight line. If you
successfully approach the Loaded Dice from behind, you can "run away"
with a 100% chance of success.
-Ness: "bash"
f)Mr. Molecule
Attacks
-Flash[alpha]
-Fire[alpha]
-Freeze[alpha]
-Thunder[alpha]
Comments: The Mr. Molecule cannot use PSI moves for the first four
rounds of every battle.
Strategy
One or two hits from Ness's "bash" attack should defeat the Mr.
Molecule. If Ness has the Sea or Star Pendant and the Franklin Badge,
this enemy will pose no threat whatsoever. Otherwise, recover Ness if
his HP falls to 150 or lower after the fourth round. Defeat the Mr.
Molecule last if it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower and
he does not have the Sea or Star Pendant
g)Ness's Nightmare
Recommended Level: 70
Attacks
-PSI Rockin[alpha]
Comments: There is a small chance this attack will not work on Ness.
-PSI Rockin[omega]
Comments: Ditto.
-Lifeup[beta]
-Shield[beta]
Strategy
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP rolls down to about 200 or
lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
To the right of Ness's starting place is Ness's mom and Tracy. Talk to
Tracy if you want to store any items and talk to Ness's mom to rest.
To the south are two buildings. The building on the right is a store and
the building on the left contains an ATM and a telephone. If Ness does not
have a Brain Food Lunch or a Magic Truffle, enter the store and buy one or
two Magic Puddings. Also, if Ness does not have the Night Pendant, the Sea
Pendant, or the Star Pendant, buy an Earth Pendant and equip it on him.
The Earth Pendant only provides 50% protection from Fire, Freeze, and
Flash, but it can help in an upcoming boss battle.
Ness can enlist the help of "Flying Men" in the house near Buzz Buzz's
grave. Talk to one of them to get a little help in this area. The Flying
Man can inflict about 100 HP of damage with its attacks, but because you
cannot recover its HP it likely won't make it to the end of Magicant. As
far as I can tell, the Flying Man has about 300~400 HP.
The monsters in Magicant can be fairly tough, so make sure that Ness has
at least one PP recovery item. The Loaded Dice can enlist the aid of many
different enemies and should be defeated first in any battle. Because it
is a gift box enemy, the Loaded Dice can be fairly easily evaded and
approached from behind; try to do so if you have enough room to maneuver.
The other enemy that can cause trouble is the Care Free Bomb. If you face
one of these things in battle, have Ness use his "bash" attack and
recover with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower. If you face two
or more, take advantage of the rolling HP counter and recover with Lifeup
[gamma] only when the HP counter rolls down to about 150~200. When
recovering, be sure to wait until the HP counter stops rolling up before
attacking again. Most other enemies in Magicant can be dealt with by
using "bash."
Once Ness is in the area with monsters (the music should change when this
occurs), you can either walk north or east. The east path leads to a gift
box containing a Bag of Dragonite and another Ness. Talk to Ness and he
will give you a Baseball Cap, a pretty unhelpful item at this point of
the game. Take the north path to proceed.
Ness should quickly approach another junction. Take the north path to find
a gift box containing a Goddess Band. Equip this on Paula when Ness
returns to the outside world. Take the path leading east to proceed.
From here, it should be fairly straightforward. There are two other gift
boxes that contain a Magicant Bat, a weapon for Ness, and a Magic Tart, an
item that recovers 20 PP.
You should find a strange object at the end of this area. "Check" this
object to teleport to the next area, the Sea of Eden.
There are three Krakens lurking in the Sea of Eden. The Kraken should be
much easier than the last time you fought this enemy and can be defeated
by just using standard attacks. Recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] when his
HP drops to 150 or lower, especially if he does not have protection from
fire.
Before checking the statue in the center of the Sea, make sure that Ness
has at least 150 HP; recover with Lifeup[gamma] if necessary. "Check" the
the statue to start the fight against Ness's Nightmare. The Ness's
Nightmare's two most threatening moves are Shield[beta] and PSI Rockin
[omega]. Take advantage of the rolling HP counter and recover with Lifeup
[gamma] only when the HP counter rolls down to about 200, even if Ness is
mortally wounded, and wait for the HP counter to stop rolling up after
recovering before attacking. Have Ness "bash" for offense and ignore any
power shields the statue may be protected with. If Ness's PP runs low, use
a Brain Food Lunch, a Magic Truffle, or a Magic Pudding. Ness will likely
take a beating in this battle, but he can take it.
After defeating Ness's Nightmare, Ness will power up from the Sound Stone
and gain a significant stat boost.

-Paralysis[omega]
-Brainshock[omega]
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Evil Eye in one or two rounds by using
standard attacks. A hit from Freeze[gamma] or [omega] followed by one
or two hits from a standard attack should also defeat this enemy. If
the Evil Eye appears in a group, defeat it first with Freeze[gamma] or
[omega] and standard attacks. Use Healing[beta] on any party members
feeling strange and Healing[gamma] on paralyzed party members if you
need to. Use Healing[gamma] on any diamondized party member as soon as
possible.

Comments: The Ghost of Starman will always attacks in the above order,

Strategy
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against
the Ghost of Starman's Starstorm. If Paula is not consistently able to
go before this enemy attacks, try equipping her with the Rabbit's Foot,
an item found in the seventh sanctuary cave. Alternatively, you can have
Ness use Lifeup[omega] to recover the entire party after being damaged;
just be sure that each party member has at least 200~250 HP before going
into battle. Defeat the Ghost of Starman last if Paula is able to put up
a PSI Shield. Otherwise, defeat it after any Evil Eyes.
The Ghost of Starman has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Goddess Ribbon,
the best "other" armor for Paula in the game (Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds).
As far as I know, it has no special effects other than to increase
Paula's Defense.

WALKTHROUGH
NOTE 2: There are new items being sold in the Saturn Valley Store. If the
party does not have at least three items that protect from Flash
(i.e. the Night Pendant, the Sea Pendant, or the Star Pendant),
be sure to buy as many Night Pendants from the store as needed.
Protection from Flash can be helpful in the final fight of the
game. Fire protective items may also come in handy, so don't sell
any you have.
Talk to Dr. Andonuts in Saturn Valley and attempt to enter the Phase
Distorter after doing so.
If you want to recover the party, you can go to Ness's house and rest
there for free.
Upon reaching the impact site, "check" the meteorite and answer "yes"
when prompted. After obtaining the Meteorite Piece teleport to Saturn
Valley.
"Use" the Meteorite Piece while standing next to Dr. Andonuts and rest at
the house to the southwest (or any other place).
Talk to Dr. Andonuts and he will ask the party if they are ready. Whether
you answer "yes" or "no," he will tell the party to make sure they are
absolutely ready.
There are many enemies in the final area of the game, but only minor
preparations should be needed. As mentioned above, make sure that the
party has at least three items that protect from Flash (i.e. the Night
Pendant, the Sea Pendant, or the Star Pendant) for Ness, Paula, and Jeff.
Place the Franklin Badge in Paula's inventory, along with a Sea or Star
Pendant if you have one. It may also help to have a few Brain Food Lunches
or PP recovery items, but they are not necessary.
Talk to Dr. Andonuts again and answer "yes" when he asks if the party is
ready. Approach the front of the Phase Distorter and the party will be
teleported to the cave in the Lost Underworld.
NOTE: If you save after using the Phase Distorter, you will not be able
to return to any other area in the game. It is fairly easy to make
it through the last area of the game without losing a battle, so
don't save unless you really want to.
Walk east and the party will be approached by the old man from Dalaam. He
will recover the party and teach Poo Starstorm[omega].
Continue walking east and you will find a destroyed Phase Distorter,
likely the prototype Dr. Andonuts claimed was stolen from a pig in
clothing. "Check" the rubble to find a Horn of Life.
Walk a little north and west past the strange silver object. Walk to the
end of the path and go back; Dr. Andonuts, Apple Kid, and a Mr. Saturn
should appear from another Phase Distorter.
Talk to Apple Kid and then Dr. Andonuts. Answer "yes" when prompted both
times to proceed to the final area of the game; answering "no" will just
make Dr. Andonuts state the disturbing obvious in a humorously nonchalant
sort of way.

ITEMS
a)Gutsy Bat
This is the best weapon available for Ness in the game. Not only is the
Offense increase comparable to that of the Legendary Bat, the Gutsy Bat
also increases Ness's Guts by 127. This weapon requires a lot of luck or a
lot of patience to obtain, however, as the Bionic Kraken only has a 1/128
chance of carrying it. The Bionic Kraken is a pretty rare enemy, but it
seems to appear the most on the island after the first teleporting sphere
and in front of the cave leading to Giygas.

ENEMIES
a)Bionic Kraken
Attacks
-Generate a tornado
Damage: 200~350 HP to everyone
-Breathe fire
Damage: 150~300 HP to everyone
Comments: The damage inflicted by this attack can be reduced to 10~20 HP
by a Flame Pendant, a Sea Pendant, or a Star Pendant. If a
party member has a fire protective item but is not equipped
with it, select "goods" while in battle and select the item to
equip it.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Bionic Kraken in two or three rounds by
using standard attacks. Have Ness use Lifeup[omega] when needed to
recover. Freeze is also effective against this enemy, though it should
not be necessary to use for the most part.
The Bionic Kraken has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Gutsy Bat, arguably
the best weapon for Ness in the game. The increase in Offense provided
by this weapon is comparable to that of the Legendary Bat, and it also

Comments: This move is only a problem if it is used to revive a defeated
enemy.
-Shield[beta]
-Brainshock[omega]
Strategy
This is one of the few times I recommend you use PSI Shield[omega]. The
Final Starman has a good chance of using Shield[beta] and Brainshock
[omega], making it somewhat difficult to use standard attacks against
this enemy in some cases. With PSI Shield[omega], you can have Paula and
Poo use PSI Magnet[omega] while Ness and Jeff just "defend" to defeat
the Final Starman and the Ghost of Starman. Alternatively, you can
ignore the Final Starman's power shield and just use standard attacks,
though this method may be difficult if this enemy appears with a Ghost
of Starman and the Nuclear Reactor Robot. Try to defeat this enemy first
in any battle.
The Final Starman is protected with PSI Shield[beta] from the beginning
of the battle; the psychic shield is replaced if this enemy uses Shield
[beta].

Damage: 80~100 HP (Ness)
60~90 HP (Paula)
60~90 HP (Jeff)
80~100 HP (Poo)
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Nuclear Reactor Robot in one or two
rounds by using standard attacks if it does not recover its HP. If this
enemy appears in a group, focus your attacks on a single target. Always
defeat this enemy last.
You can use Poo's "mirror" on the Nuclear Reactor Robot to recover your
party without using PP. This method requires some patience to use, but
it can be a cost-effective way of recovering HP.

The Cave of the Past is a very straightforward area and there should be no
trouble traveling to the end. There are many enemies here, however, and
some of them can cause some trouble. When facing the Ghost of Starman,
have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against its
Starstorm. If Paula does not go consistently before the Ghost of Starman,
consider equipping her with the Rabbit's Foot. Alternatively, you can have
Ness use Lifeup[omega] to recover the party, but make sure that each party
member has at least 200 HP before going into battle.
When facing the Final Starman, it may be best to have Paula use PSI
Shield[omega]. This move will be enough to defeat the Final Starman and
any Ghost of Starmans it appears with, making any other attack
unnecessary. Have Paula and Poo use PSI Magnet[omega] when protected from
the psychic power shield to recover some PP and have Ness and Jeff
"defend" if they are feeling strange. Most other enemies in this area can
be dealt with by using just standard attacks. Always defeat any Nuclear
Reactor Robots last.
The only gift box item found in the Cave of the Past is the Legendary
Bat, a weapon for Ness. The gift box is very easy to find.
The Gutsy Bat can also be found in this area. This is Ness's best weapon
in the game but requires a lot of luck or a lot of patience to obtain, as
the Bionic Kraken has only a 1/128 chance of carrying this weapon. The
Bionic Kraken is a pretty rare enemy to begin with but seems to appear
the most on the island after the first teleporting sphere and just before
the cave leading to Giygas.
Eventually, the party should enter a large cave opening and end up in a
room full of tubes. This is where Giygas is located. Before proceeding,
make sure that each party member has at least 200 HP and that Ness,
Paula, and Jeff are equipped with items that protect from Flash. Give
Paula the Franklin Badge and equip her with the Sea or Star Pendant, if
available.

Recommended Level: 73
Equipment:
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Charge forward
Damage: 180~300 HP (Ness)
150~260 HP (Paula)
150~260 HP (Jeff)
180~300 HP (Poo)
Strategy
The first part of the final battle will be against Giygas and Heavily
Armed Pokey. Pokey is the target the party needs to focus on, but use
PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against Giygas's PSI
Rockin (do not use PSI Shield[omega] or [beta]). Use PSI Shield[sigma]
whenever the shield starts to weaken (each use of shield protects from
three attacks, up to a maximum of eight attacks). That should be enough
to nullify all of Giygas's attacks.
If Paula or Poo run low on PP, have them use PSI Magnet[omega] to take
some PP from both Giygas and Pokey.
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Multi Bottle Rocket
-Poo: Freeze[gamma]
PSI Magnet[omega]
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-PSI Rockin[alpha]
-PSI Rockin[beta]
Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against PSI Rockin
(do not use PSI Shield[omega] or [beta]). Use PSI Shield[sigma] again
whenever the shield starts to weaken (each use of shield protects from
three attacks, up to a maximum of eight attacks).
All damage inflicted on Giygas will reflect off of him and damage the
party. This includes any attack reflected off of a party's power shield
or any attack Giygas targets himself with (this can occur if Poo uses
Brainshock on Giygas and makes him feel strange). The only attacks that
affect Giygas are "assist" or "recover" type PSI attacks or status
affecting items such as the Slime Generator and the Monkey's Love. You
can take advantage of this by having Paula or Poo use PSI Magnet[omega]
to recover PP.
c)Giygas (Form 2)
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Attack 1
Damage: 100~210 HP to the entire party
Status Effect: chance of solidification
Comments: Freeze protective items, such as the Rain Pendant, will reduce
the damage inflicted by this attack to about ~10 HP. I suggest
you give priority to Flash protection, however, as Giygas's
Flash equivalent attack has a pretty good chance of rendering
a party member unconscious. Have Ness use Lifeup[omega] to
recover from this attack.
-Attack 2
Effect: equivalent to Thunder[beta]
-Attack 3
Effect: causes uncontrollable crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an
instant KO
Comment: Flash protective items, such as the Night Pendant, will prevent
this attack from working.
-Waste a turn
Strategy
To defeat Giygas's second form, the party will have to inflict roughly
2000 HP worth of damage. Have Ness use PSI Rockin[omega], Paula use
Freeze[omega], and Jeff use the Heavy Bazooka or his standard attack
(the Multi Bottle Rocket never seems to work against Giygas, so avoid
using it). If Poo has a good amount of PP, have him use Starstorm[alpha]
or [omega]; otherwise, have him use Brainshock[alpha] to make Giygas
feel strange and either save the rest of his PP for Lifeup and Healing
or use Freeze[gamma].
Occasionally Ness's PSI Rockin fails to work on Giygas. Use his standard
attack if you want to avoid this risk.
-Paula: Freeze[omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: Starstorm[alpha]
Starstorm[omega]
Freeze[gamma]
Brainshock[alpha]
recover with Lifeup[beta] or [gamma] as necessary
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Attack 1
Damage: 100~210 HP to the entire party
Status Effect: chance of solidification
Comments: Freeze protective items, such as the Rain Pendant, will reduce
the damage inflicted by this attack to about ~10 HP. I suggest
you give priority to Flash protection, however, as Giygas's
Flash equivalent attack has a pretty good chance of rendering
a party member unconscious. Have Ness use Lifeup[omega] to
recover from this attack.
-Attack 2
Effect: equivalent to Thunder[beta]
-Attack 3
Effect: causes uncontrollable crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an
instant KO
Comment: Flash protective items, such as the Night Pendant, will prevent
this attack from working.
-Waste a turn
Strategy
From this point forward, the role of all party members except for
Paula's should be relegated towards defensive purposes. Have Poo use
Brainshock[alpha] in the first round if Giygas is not feelings strange
and use it again if Giygas reverts back to normal. Have Ness and Poo use
Lifeup or Healing as necessary. Jeff probably won't be able to do
anything against Giygas anymore, so have him "defend."
The only way to defeat Giygas is to have Paula "pray" nine times. By
praying, Paula will telepathically contact people the party has met
throughout their adventure and draw upon their strength to damage and
eventually defeat Giygas. If Paula has the Franklin Badge and the Sea or
Star Pendant, she should have no trouble surviving. Otherwise, have Ness
or Poo use Lifeup to recover her HP if it falls below 150 or use Healing
or a recovery item if she falls unconscious.
-Ness: "defend"
Lifeup[beta], [gamma], or [omega], as necessary
-Paula: "pray"
-Jeff: "defend"
Slime Generator or the Monkey's Love (I have never seen either
item work on Giygas, but Jeff really has nothing better to do
at this point in the battle)

XXII.Item Descriptions
*******************************************************************************
This section lists the items that can be found in the game and contains
information on what each item does and strategies on how to use them. Items are
listed in alphabetical order.
Condiments are automatically used by the game. Place the condiment and
the food item in the inventory of a party member and the condiment will
be applied when the food item is used. If the two go well together, the
amount of HP and/or PP recovered will be increased by 50~100%. Otherwise,
there will be no boost and the condiment will be wasted. Different
condiments go well with different food items, with the exception of the
Jar of Delisauce which goes well with any applicable food item. Using the
condiment alone will recover only 5~7 HP.
ATM Card
The game requires the ATM Card to be in Ness's inventory at all times. It
cannot be discarded or given to any other party member. The ATM card can
be used even if Ness is unconscious.
Backstage Pass
Approach the woman blocking the entrance to the music hall and "use" the
Backstage Pass to gain access. This item has no further use outside of
Twoson but it cannot be sold or thrown away. Give it to Escargo Express
once Twoson is cleared.
Baddest Beam
The Baddest Beam is obtained by fixing the Broken Harmonica, which can be
found in a gift box in the Stonehenge Base. Give this item to Escargo
Express once a better weapon for Jeff becomes available.
The Bad Key Machine will open the lockers in Snow Wood Boarding House and
allow Jeff to obtain the items contained them. It is also used to release
Ness and Paula from their holding cell in Threed. Give this item to
Escargo Express once Ness and Paula are released, as it will not be used
in any other part of the game.
Bag of Dragonite
Use: inflicts damage on all enemies in battle; gone after one use
Bag of Fries
Banana
Baseball Cap
I don't recommend you buy the Baseball Cap because the Mr. Baseball Cap is
a better alternative.
Bazooka
You can buy the Bazooka from the merchant standing outside the Pyramid
exit in Southern Scaraba. I don't recommend you obtain this item, however,
as it will likely inflict less damage than Jeff's "shoot." The Heavy
Bazooka is a much better alternative.
Bean Croquette
Beef Jerky
Bicycle
The Bicycle would be useful if it did not become unusable so early in the
game. It cannot be used if there are more than two people in your party,
and Paula joins Ness soon after this becomes available. If you decide to
get the Bicycle, give it to Escargo Express once Paula joins Ness.
Use: damages a single target; can only be used by Jeff; gone after one use
Most enemies will take about 500 HP of damage from the Big Bottle Rocket,
but some may receive less (see description for Bottle Rocket below).
Bionic Slingshot
I do not recommend you use any Slingshot weapon, since they have a lower
accuracy than each party member's standard weapon.
Boiled Egg
The Boiled Egg is only helpful when Jeff first ventures through Winters.
It can be sold if obtained at any other part of the game.
Bomb
There is no need to use the Bomb. If you do obtain it, sell it or use it
as an alternative to a party member's "bash" if his or her Offense is low.
This item becomes obsolete somewhat early in the game.
Bottle of DXwater
Consider buying this item if you find conserving Poo's PP too difficult at
certain points in the game.
Bottle of Water
Not that useful of an item. The only advantage the Bottle of Water has
over the DXwater is that the cost per PP recovery for Poo is cheaper with
the Water ($.40 per PP vs. $4.95 per PP). This shouldn't be all that
important since money usually isn't an issue in this game.
Bottle Rocket
Use: damages a single target in battle; can only be used by Jeff; gone
after one use
The Bottle Rocket inflicts about 150 HP of damage to most targets. Damage
inflicted by this item and the Big/Multi Bottle Rocket is not reduced by
Shield, though damage can be reflected and mortally wound Jeff. The
effectiveness of Bottle Rockets seems to depend on the target's Speed,
with faster enemies receiving less damage or even avoiding damage
altogether. The success rate against most enemies, however, is near 100%.
Bracer of Kings
The Bracer of Kings can be found in the Sixth Sanctuary Cave. This is
the only item Poo should equip on his arms for the entire game.
Brain Food Lunch
A very effective item, though it should not be necessary to use them that
often. I usually save these in case I get into a tight situation, such as
when Ness and Poo's PP run low and the party is far from a place to rest.
If you want more of them, you can purchase some from Dalaam for $800 each.
Bread Roll
Not all that useful. Hold on to it for at least the very beginning part of
the game, but sell it if you need more space in your inventory. This item
is near useless after Ness reaches Twoson, so sell it once it is obtained.
The only other time this item is helpful is when Jeff first ventures
through Winters.
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Magnum Air Gun, a weapon for Jeff
IQ required: 12
Obtain the Broken Air Gun from one of the lockers before leaving Snow Wood
Boarding House. Jeff should be able to repair this item soon after he
joins Ness and Paula in Threed.
Broken Antenna
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Gaia Beam, a weapon for Jeff
IQ Required: 65
The Uncontrollable Sphere in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave has a 1/128 chance
of carrying the Broken Antenna. The Gaia Beam is the most powerful weapon
available for Jeff in the game.
Broken Bazooka
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Heavy Bazooka, a tool for Jeff
IQ required: 45
Obtain the Broken Bazooka and give it to Jeff when going through the
sewers in Fourside. The Heavy Bazooka is a powerful item that can inflict
enough damage to replace Jeff's "shoot" for awhile in the game.
Broken Cannon
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Spectrum Beam, a weapon for Jeff
IQ required: 32
Buy the Broken Cannon from the marketplace in Scaraba if Jeff does not
have the Heavy Bazooka. If he does have the Heavy Bazooka, you probably
won't need the Spectrum Beam.
Broken Gadget
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Double Beam, a weapon for Jeff
IQ Required: 34
The Broken Gadget can be bought from the dealer in northern Fourside, past
the Monotoli Building and the Department Store. Jeff will probably be able
to repair this item at around the time Poo joins the party.
Broken Harmonica
Use: Jeff can repair this item into the Baddest Beam, a weapon for Jeff
IQ Required: 55
Can be found in a gift box in the Stonehenge Base. If Jeff has the Heavy
Bazooka, it may not be necessary to obtain this item.
Broken Iron
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Slime Generator, a tool for Jeff
IQ required: 10
Obtain the Broken Iron before leaving Brick Road. Jeff should be able to
repair it once he joins Ness and Paula in Threed
Broken Laser
Use: Jeff can repair this item into the Laser Gun, a weapon for Jeff
IQ required: 24
Obtain the Broken Laser in Belch's Base and give it to Jeff. He will
probably be able to repair it after Master Belch is defeated.
Use: Jeff can repair this item into the Defense Spray
IQ required: 1
The Defense Spray simply increases a single target's Defense by 6% for one
battle. This is rarely ever helpful, and it is usually best to sell the
Defense Spray for $250 if Jeff repairs the Broken Spray Can.
Broken Tube
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Hungry HP-Sucker, a tool for Jeff
IQ Required: 36
The Hungry HP-Sucker can be a pretty useful item, so I recommend you try
to obtain the Broken Tube in the Monkey Cave. Jeff will likely be able to
repair this item by the time the party records the fifth or sixth
sanctuary melody.
Broken Machine
Use: Jeff can repair this item into the Counter-PSI Unit, a tool for Jeff
IQ Required: 1
The Broken Machine is found in the trash can in Apple Kid's house. The
Counter-PSI Unit isn't a very helpful item, however, so you can leave the
Broken Machine behind or give it to Escargo Express.
Calorie Stick
The Calorie Stick is somewhat useful when venturing to Saturn Valley for
the first time. Buy about three of these before going through the
underground passage at the Threed Drugstore if the party has no food
items.
Use: recovers 6 HP
Carrot Key
Obtain the Carrot Key after recording the fifth sanctuary melody.
Casey Bat
The Casey Bat is obtained after defeating Master Barf in Deep Darkness.
This weapon provides the largest boost in Offense for Ness in the game but
has an accuracy of only 25%. The additional effects of uncontrollable
crying and high evasion rates of some enemies can make the Casey Bat one
highly unreliable weapon. I recommend you sell it for $19.
Charm Coin
The Charm Coin can be bought from the businessman in Deep Darkness. Buy it
if you did not buy the Lucky Coin in Summers. The Charm Coin offers the
same boost in Defense and Luck as the Lucky Coin but is half the price.
Cheap Bracelet
Use: armor; equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff
Buy and equip the Cheap Bracelet on Ness before battling Frank. Sell it
after buying the Copper Bracelet in Twoson's Burglin Park.
Chef's Special
Standard food item. Hold on to it if you obtain it but discard if you need
more space in the party's inventory.
Cherub's Band
Use: armor; equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and Luck; provides protection from Hypnosis
To obtain the Cherub's Band, walk all the way to the eastern edge of the
Eighth Sanctuary Cave on the lowest level.
Chick
Use: none
The Chick will turn into a Chicken in about 30 or 40 seconds. It will run
away if it is used at any time, so try not to accidentally select the
"use" command with this item. Some claim that using a Chick can get rid of
homesickness, though this has not worked for me.
Chicken
The best use for the Chicken is to raise it from a Fresh Egg and sell it
for a $98 profit. This can be useful in the early part of the game to
earn some extra money. Like the Chick, the Chicken will run away if used.
Cloak of Kings
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Poo; increases Defense and Speed
The Cloak of Kings can be found in a gift box located northeast of the
Eighth Sanctuary Location in the Lost Underworld. This is the only item
Poo should equip on his "body" for the entire game.
Coin of Defense
Obtain the Coin of Defense in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert and at
the Fourside Department Store.
Coin of Silence
Buy the Coin of Silence by going to the Winters Drugstore once Ness learns
Teleport[alpha].
Coin of Slumber
Obtain the Coin of Slumber and equip it on Jeff when venturing through
the Third Sanctuary Cave. Buy another one for Ness upon reaching Dusty
Dunes Desert at the Drugstore (Paula should be equipped with the Mr.
Saturn Coin instead of this item).
Cold Remedy
This has some use in Peaceful Rest Valley, but becomes obsolete in
subsequent parts of the game. Sell any you may have once you are through
Peaceful Rest Valley.
Combat Yo-Yo
I do not recommend you use any Yo-yos since they have a lower accuracy
than each party member's standard weapon.
Contact Lens
The Contact Lens can be found northwest of the miner's shack in the Dusty
Dunes Desert. Return it to the man in the second floor of the Bakery in
Fourside to receive a Pair of Dirty Socks, an item that solidifies a
single target in battle (not very useful).
Cookie
Use: recovers 6 HP
The Cookie can be used for minor recovery at the very beginning of the
game. It may also be helpful to Jeff when you first gain control of him in
Winters.
Copper Bracelet
Buy and equip the Copper Bracelet on Ness before venturing through
Peaceful Rest Valley. Buy and equip this item on Paula and Jeff as soon as
they join Ness. Sell these once the Silver Bracelet becomes available in
Saturn Valley.
Counter-PSI Unit
Use: renders a single enemy unable to use PSI for four rounds
The Counter-PSI Unit does not work very often against stronger enemies. It
is mostly unnecessary, so give it to Escargo Express if you have one.
Cracked Bat
Obtain the Cracked Bat from Ness's house and equip it as soon as the game
starts. Sell it once you obtain the Tee Ball Bat at the Onett Drugstore.
Croissant
Crusher Beam
If Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka or the Spectrum Beam, you will not have to
buy the Crusher Beam.
Crystal Charm
Use: defense item; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases
speed and provides protection from Paralysis
The party can buy the Crystal Charm from a merchant in Scaraba. This is a
good item to use if you want protection from Paralysis.
Cup of Coffee
Use: recovers about 12 HP
Cup of Lifenoodles
Use: revives any unconscious party members and heals poison, nausea,
colds, sunstroke, sleep, crying, feeling strange, paralysis, and
diamondization
Cup of Noodles
Death Ray
The Death Ray can be obtained from a trash can in Tenda Village. Obtain
this weapon upon reaching Tenda Village if Jeff does not have the Heavy
Bazooka.
Defense Ribbon
I don't recommend you buy the Defense Ribbon for Paula, since she will
leave the party soon after this becomes available.
Defense Shower
Defense Spray
There is no need to use the Defense Spray. Sell or discard if you ever
obtain it.
Buy and equip this weapon on Paula upon reaching Dusty Dunes Desert.
Diadem of Kings
Obtain the Diadem of Kings while going through the Seventh Sanctuary Cave.
This item can be found by walking all the way west from the entrance to
the cave and climbing down the ladder. This is the only "other" item Poo
should equip in the game.
Diamond
To obtain the Diamond, take a bus to Fourside after defeating the five
moles in the gold mine. "Use" the Diamond while standing next to the
Topolla Theater's owner to free the Runaway Five.
Diamond Band
You will likely not be able to afford the Diamond Band for Ness, Paula,
and Jeff the first time it becomes available in Summers. It can be bought
at a cheaper price in Scaraba, so buy it there if you could not afford to
equip your party in Summers.
Double Beam
Jeff obtains the Double Beam by repairing the Broken Gadget. Sell it once
a better weapon becomes available for Jeff.
Double Burger
Earth Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and provides 50% protection from Fire, Freeze, and Flash
Buy the Earth Pendant in Magicant and equip it on Ness if he does not have
the Night Pendant, the Sea Pendant, or the Star Pendant.
Eraser Eraser
Use: eliminates the eraser statue blocking the way into Stonehenge
Obtain the Eraser Eraser from the Mouse inside Dr. Andonuts's Lab after
getting a call from Apple Kid in Deep Darkness. "Use" it on the eraser
statue to gain access into Stonehenge. This item will only be used once
and can be given to Escargo Express.
Exit Mouse
Use: use it in dungeons, such as caves; takes the party automatically back
to the entrance
The Exit Mouse can often be found in the middle of large dungeons. Use it
when Ness or Poo run low on PP and the party needs to recover.
Flame Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage
inflicted by Fire or equivalent attacks by about 96%
Equip the Flame Pendant on Paula until you get the Sea Pendant in the Lost
Underworld. This item also reduces the damage inflicted by Fire equivalent
attacks, such as "Breathe Fire."
The For Sale Sign can be bought from a shaggy haired kid in Burglin Park
in Twoson. There will be many instances in the game where you will obtain
an item that is unnecessary or needs to be discarded. Use the For Sale
Sign in those cases to sell whatever you don't need and receive a bit of
money.
Franklin Badge
Use: allows you to fight Mr. Carpainter; deflects any Thunder attacks
from the party member carrying the Badge
Obtain the Franklin Badge by talking to Paula in her holding cell. Give
the Badge to Paula once she joins Ness to make it easier for her to
survive in battle.
Buy the French Fry Pan from the merchant standing outside the Pyramid
exit in Scaraba.
Fresh Egg
Use: recovers about 80 HP; it will also turn into a Chick in about 1 min.
and then a Chicken if you wait another 30~40 sec.
The Fresh Egg will grow into a Chicken after about 1 min. and 30 sec. The
Fresh Egg can be bought for $12 while the Chicken can be sold for $110, so
buying an Egg and waiting for it to mature into a Chicken can net you $98.
Fry Pan
Buy the Fry Pan at the Happy Happy Village Drugstore once Paula joins
Ness. Sell it once the Thick Fry Pan becomes available in Threed.
Gaia Beam
The Gaia Beam can be obtained by repairing the Broken Antenna, an item
that can only be obtained from the Uncontrollable Sphere in the Seventh
Sanctuary Cave. The Uncontrollable Sphere has a 1/128 chance of carrying
the Broken Antenna, so you'll need a lot of luck or a lot of patience to
obtain it. The Gaia Beam is the most powerful weapon available to Jeff in
the game.
Gelato de Resort
Goddess Band
Obtain the Goddess Band from a gift box in Magicant. I recommend you equip
this item on Paula after Ness wakes up from Magicant.
Goddess Ribbon
The Ghost of Starman has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Goddess Ribbon. It
is the best "other" armor for Paula in the game (Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds).
Gold Bracelet
Buy the Gold Bracelet for whichever party member it will benefit once it
becomes available in the Fourside Department Store.
Great Charm
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Speed and
Defense and provides immunity to Paralysis
Unlike the Travel Charm, the Great Charm increases Defense and Speed in
addition to providing immunity to Paralysis. Obtain this item from a gift
box in the Second Sanctuary Cave and equip it on Paula. Buy and equip them
on Ness and Jeff at Saturn Valley.
Gutsy Bat
The Bionic Kraken in the Cave of the Past has a 1/128 chance of carrying
the Gutsy Bat, arguably the best weapon available for Ness in the game.
Not only is the strength of this weapon comparable to that of the
Legendary Bat, but it will also increase Ness's Guts by 127.
Guts Capsule
I recommend you give all Guts Capsules to Ness. Ness will likely benefit
the most from a high Guts stat since his "bash" attack is more useful than
the other party members'. You also want him to survive as much as possible
in most battles since he can recover the other party members with Lifeup
and Healing.
The Hall of Fame Bat can be obtained by trading seven Horns of Life with
the Tenda shopkeeper in Tenda Village. I don't recommend you obtain this
item, however, since it is quickly superseded by the Ultimate Bat in the
Lost Underworld.
Hamburger
Hand-Aid
I have never needed to use the Hand-Aid myself, but it is still good to
have just in case of an emergency.
Handbag Strap
Hard Hat
The earliest area in which the Hard Hat can be obtained is Peaceful Rest
Valley; try to obtain it there and equip it on Ness. Once Jeff joins the
party, buy one at Threed Drugstore and equip it on him.
Hawk Eye
Don't forget to obtain the Hawk Eye from the Pyramid in Scaraba. "Use"
this item once the party reaches the dark region in Deep Darkness to make
things visible. If Poo was carrying this item when he left the party, you
can get it back by calling Escargo Express.
Heavy Bazooka
The Heavy Bazooka is likely to inflict more damage than Jeff's "shoot"
command the first time it is obtained. Use this item instead of "shoot" as
long as Jeff's normal offensive power is lower. If Jeff's "shoot" starts
to inflict more damage, use the Heavy Bazooka when Jeff starts crying.
Hieroglyph Copy
Use: repeats what was written on the Hieroglyphs in the Museum in Summers
It will be helpful to keep the Hieroglyph Copy with the party until the
Pyramid in Scaraba is cleared. Give it to Escargo Express after that.
Holmes Hat
The Holmes Hat can be found in one of the lockers in Snow Wood Boarding
House. Equip it on Jeff before venturing through Winters. Sell it once the
Hard Hat becomes available in Threed.
Buy the Holy Fry Pan from the shop in the Lost Underworld and equip it on
Paula before heading to the Eighth Sanctuary Cave.
Horn of Life
Use: revives any unconscious party members and heals poison, nausea,
colds, sunstroke, sleep, crying, feeling strange, paralysis, and
diamondization
HP-Sucker
The HP drain of the HP-sucker is not significant, and it's usually better
to have Jeff "shoot" instead of using this item. You can sell it to earn
some money.
Hungry HP-sucker
Use: drains a portion of all enemies' HP and gives it to its user; can
only be used by Jeff
Use the Hungry HP-sucker rather than Lifeup for recovering Jeff when
facing multiple normal enemies. Do not use during boss battles, however,
as its success rate against bosses is low.
Insecticide Spray
The Insignificant Item can be found in one of the rooms on the second
floor of Threed Hospital. Enter the room on the left and "check" the
drawer to obtain it.
As its name suggests, the Insignificant Item does absolutely nothing and
only sells for $1. However, if you go to the second story of Twoson
Hospital and enter one of the rooms, you will find a man that will trade
this item for a Magic Truffle.
IQ Capsule
The Jar of Fly Honey needs to be used in the battle against Master Belch
in order for the battle to be won. Otherwise, Master Belch cannot be
defeated, no matter how much damage the party inflicts. This item is not
used after the battle with Master Belch and should be given to Escargo
Express once it has served its purpose.
Kabob
Standard food item. Sell or discard if you need more space in the party's
inventory.
The Key to the Cabin is required to rescue Paula and progress in the game.
Go up to the jail cell door and "use" this item to open the door.
Go up to one of the lockers in Snow Wood Boarding House and "use" the Key
to the Locker. Talk to Maxwell afterwards, and he will give Jeff the Bad
Key Machine.
Use: opens the shack leading to the First Sanctuary Cave in Onett
Obtain the Key to the Shack from the mayor of Onett after defeating Frank.
"Use" this item while standing next to the door to the shack in northern
Onett to open it. This item has no further use in the game and should
disappear after being used.
Obtain the Key to the Tower by talking to the tribal native standing
outside the Pyramid exit in Southern Scaraba. This item is required to
enter Dungeon Man and progress in the game. Give it to Escargo Express
once the party leaves Scaraba.
King Banana
Trade the King Banana with one of the monkeys in the Monkey Cave to reach
the end of the cave.
Kraken Soup
A food item worth holding on to but not necessarily worth buying. If you
do buy it, use it is as an alternative to Lifeup[gamma].
Large Pizza
Although this is a very good food item, there is really no need to go out
of your way to obtain one. You can have it delivered to the party for $238
if you have Mach Pizza's phone number (just go into a Mach Pizza store to
get the phone number).
Laser Gun
Jeff should be able to use the Laser Gun after Master Belch is defeated.
Give it to Escargo Express once a stronger weapon becomes available.
Legendary Bat
Use: weapon for Ness
This is the only gift box item in the Cave of the Past and is easy to
find. Only the Gutsy Bat is better than this weapon.
Luck Capsule
Out of all the stats increasing items in this game, I find the Luck
Capsule the least useful. None of the party members are really deficient
in Luck and there are many equippable items that increase Luck. Use these
on whomever you want or sell them.
Lucky Coin
It is possible that you will not be able to buy enough Lucky Coins to
equip Ness, Paula, and Jeff the first time it is available in Summers. A
cheaper equivalent item (the Charm Coin) will be available in Deep
Darkness.
Lucky Sandwich
I haven't tested whether a higher Luck stat will increase the chances of
getting a favorable outcome from using the Lucky Sandwich. The randomness
of this item, however, means that you'll likely need a number of them to
ensure that they will help you. You're probably better off filling your
inventory space with more reliable items.
Luxury Jerky
Standard food item. Sell or discard if you need more space in the party's
inventory.
Magicant Bat
Obtain the Magicant Bat from a gift box in Magicant. It should be easy to
find.
Magic Fry Pan
The Chomposaur has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Magic Fry Pan, a weapon
for Paula that increases Offense by 50 and Guts by 100. The Offense
increase is small and I don't recommend you go out of your way to obtain
this weapon, but it can be used to increase the chances that Paula gets a
SMAAAASH!! hit or survive a mortal blow.
Magic Pudding
Buy one or two Magic Puddings in Magicant if Ness does not have a Brain
Food Lunch or a Magic Truffle.
Magic Tart
The Magic Tart can be bought from the Magic Cake lady in Summers. They are
not worth buying; use PSI Magnet and Magic Butterflies for PP recovery
instead.
Magic Truffle
The Magnum Air Gun is obtained by repairing the Broken Air Gun. Jeff
should be able use this weapon before the party ventures through the
underground passage in Threed. Give this item to Escargo Express once a
better weapon becomes available for Jeff.
Mammoth Burger
Standard food item. Sell or discard if you need more space in the party's
inventory.
Map
Use: push the X button while carrying this item to see a map of the
current town
The Map can be helpful to have, so go ahead and obtain it from Onett
Library (it's free). If you decide that you don't need it, just give it to
Escargo Express.
Meteorite Piece
Meteornium
This rare item can only be obtained by defeating certain enemies. Sell it
for a good amount of cash.
Meteotite
This rare item can only be obtained by defeating certain enemies. Sell it
for a good amount of cash.
Buy and equip the Minor League Bat upon reaching Threed. Sell this weapon
when the Mr. Baseball Bat is bought in Dusty Dunes Desert.
Molokheiya Soup
Monkey's Love
Use: solidifies a single, random target in battle; can be used many times
The Monkey's Love can be obtained by talking to one of the monkeys found
on the grassy area at the beginning of Deep Darkness and teaching it how
to teleport. Go ahead and obtain this item and replace the Slime Generator
with it. The Monkey's Love seems to have a slightly higher success rate
than the Slime Generator against most enemies and cay be used by any party
member. I usually give this to Poo and have him use it when his "bash"
isn't very effective.
The Moon Beam Gun can be obtained from a gift box in the Eighth Sanctuary
Cave. Obtain this weapon and equip it on Jeff if he does not have the
Broken Antenna or the Gaia Beam.
This is the best "other" armor for Ness during the beginning part of the
game. To obtain it, find a small recess in the edge of the grove north of
the Onett Library; there should be a shaggy haired kid walking next to it.
Enter the recess and walk north into the trees to reach a tree house. Talk
to one of the kids inside and he'll give you the Mr. Baseball Cap. Sell
this item once you obtain a stronger item.
Talk to one of the Mr. Saturns in the cave underneath the Saturn Valley
Store after Master Belch is defeated to obtain the Mr. Saturn Coin. Equip
it on Paula.
Use: inflicts major damage to a single enemy; can only be used by Jeff;
gone after one use
The damage inflicted by the Multi Bottle Rocket varies with the target,
but it usually inflicts 500~1500 HP of damage. Keep at least two of these
in Jeff's inventory at all times once they become available. Use them
against bosses in the late parts of the game to make things easier. The
best place to buy this item is from the arms dealer in Deep Darkness.
Mummy Wrap
Neutralizer
Obtained: reset stats changes and removes shields; affects all enemies and
party members; can be used many times
The Neutralizer will reset any stat changes that have occurred due to PSI
moves, such as Offense Up or Defense Down, or items, such as the Defense
Spray. By far its most useful function, however, is to remove any shields
protecting enemies or party members. Because its success rate is 100% and
affects all enemies on screen, this item is usually more useful for
removing enemy shields than the Shield Killer is. The only drawback is
that it can remove any shields your party may have, but this is usually
not a big problem. Always keep the Neutralizer in Jeff's inventory if you
do not have the Shield Killer.
Night Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; provides immunity to
Flash
The first Night Pendant available in the game can be obtained in Moonside.
I recommend you equip it on Ness, since his "bash" attack is the most
powerful in the party, and you do not want him to get instantly KO'd by
Flash or an equivalent attack.
Non-Stick Frypan
Buy the Non-Stick Frypan by going to the Winters Drugstore once Ness
learns Teleport[alpha].
The man in the second floor of the Bakery in Fourside will give you the
Pair of Dirty Socks if you return his Contact Lens to him. Use this item
in battle to solidify an enemy.
Use: -entices the Bubble Monkey to join Jeff and allows Jeff to ride Tess
to southern Winters
-allows Jeff to get through the Fourth Sanctuary Cave
The Pak of Bubble Gum is needed to progress in the game. After obtaining
this item from the woman in Winters Drugstore, talk to the Bubble Monkey
to have him join Jeff. With the Bubble Monkey, Jeff will be able to ride
Tessie across the lake and reach southern Winters. Use the Bubble Gum
again when you reach the coiled up rope in the Fourth Sanctuary Cave to
proceed. Give this item to Escargo Express once Jeff joins Ness and Paula
in Threed.
Pasta di Summers
Pencil Eraser
The Pencil Eraser is required to progress in the game. There are a number
of pencil statues in the game, so hold on to this item until you eliminate
the last one. The last statue you are likely to erase is the one in
Winters.
Picnic Lunch
Picture Postcard
Use: none
There is no need to use the Picture Postcard. Sell or discard if you ever
obtain it.
Piggy Jelly
Standard food item. Sell or discard if you need more space in the party's
inventory.
Piggy Nose
Use: helps you pinpoint the location of Magic Truffles in Deep Darkness
The party can purchase the Piggy Nose from a merchant in Scaraba. "Use"
this item while in Deep Darkness to help you locate Magic Truffles. The
closer the party is to a Magic Truffle, the more exact the directions the
Piggy Nose will give in pinpointing its location. This can be a little
frustrating to use, but it is almost essential if you want to find a
Truffle.
Pixie's Bracelet
Use: armor; equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and Luck
Pizza
Standard food item. You can have it delivered to the party for $48 if you
have Mach Pizza's phone number.
Plain Roll
Plain Yogurt
Platinum Band
The Platinum Band can first be obtained in the gold mine in the Dusty
Dunes Desert. I recommend equipping this on Jeff or Ness when it is first
obtained, since Paula will be taken from the party soon after that part of
the game.
Pop Gun
The Pop Gun needs to be obtained in order for Tony to help Jeff get out of
the Boarding School. Sell it once the Stun Gun is obtained in Brick Road.
Protein Drink
Standard food item; somewhat helpful in the first half of the game.
Protractor
Use: I do not think there is any use for this item.
There is no need to use the Protractor. Discard if you ever obtain it.
PSI Caramel
The PSI Caramel is somewhat useful on the trek from Threed to Saturn
Valley, but other than that, it is not very useful. I recommend you sell
this item if it is obtained once you are through Threed.
Rabbit's Foot
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense by
3 and Speed by 40; provides protection from Paralysis
The Rabbit's Foot is found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave near the Shining
Spot. Keep this in Paula's inventory. It can be useful against the Ghost
of Starman if Paula's Speed is not high enough for her to put up a PSI
Shield before the enemy attacks.
Rain Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage
inflicted by Freeze by about 96%
Equip this item on Jeff until the party obtains the Sea Pendant. At that
point, equip the Sea Pendant on Paula and equip the Flame Pendant on Jeff.
Receiver Phone
Red Ribbon
Buy the Red Ribbon upon reaching Saturn Valley and equip it on Paula.
Refreshing Herb
Buy the Ribbon at the Happy Happy Village Drugstore once Paula joins the
party. Sell this when the Red Ribbon becomes available in Saturn Valley.
Rock Candy
Use: increases Speed, Guts, Vitality, IQ, or Luck by one (or two, with a
condiment)
I recommend you use the Rock Candy on Paula or Poo if you obtain it. This
item can be found in gift boxes in the Sixth and Seventh Sanctuary Caves
and in Deep Darkness. Note that using a condiment such as the Jar of
Delisauce or the Sugar Packet with the Rock Candy will boost the stat
increase to two. The party can buy a Sugar Packet in Twoson or Scaraba.
NOTE: There is a bug in the game that allows you to use the Rock Candy an
infinite number of times. A detailed explanation on how to exploit
this bug can be found at starmen.net.
Ruler
The Ruler is only used in the Monkey Cave in the Dusty Dunes Desert. Jeff
starts off with this item but sell it as soon as you can; a free one can
be obtained in a gift box within the Monkey Cave, so there is no need for
Jeff to hold on to it.
Rust Promoter
Metallic enemies appear mostly in the second half of the game, but by then
200 HP of damage is no longer very helpful. Use this item when facing a
group of robotic enemies or sell it. Note that, this item will not work on
Starman type enemies.
Rust Promoter DX
Use against a group of metallic enemies or sell. Like the Rust Promoter,
the Rust Promoter DX will not work on Starman type enemies.
Sand Lot Bat
Buy and equip the Sand Lot Bat upon reaching Happy Happy Village. Sell it
once the Minor League bat is bought in Threed.
Saturn Ribbon
Talk to the rescued Mr. Saturn after defeating the Starman Deluxe to
receive the Saturn Ribbon.
Sea Pendant
Use: armor; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and provides protection from Fire, Freeze, and Flash attacks
The Sea Pendant can be found in the northeast corner of the Lost
Underworld. This item also protects from PSI equivalent attacks, such as
"Electrical Shock Attack" and "Breathe Fire."
Secret Herb
Use: has a chance of reviving an unconscious party member with 25% of max
HP; heals poison, nausea, colds, sunstroke, sleep, crying, feeling
strange, paralysis, and diamondization
Do not use the Secret Herb to try to revive an unconscious party member.
Use it instead to cure a party member who is diamondized or paralyzed.
The only time this item should actually be bought is in preparation for
the Third Sanctuary Boss battle.
Shield Killer
Use: eliminates any shields protecting a single target; may fail to work;
can be used many times
Shiny Coin
Use: armor; equip as "other" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and Luck
Buy the Shiny Coin from the shop in the Lost Underworld and equip it on
whomever it may benefit before heading to the Eighth Sanctuary Cave.
Show Ticket
Use: allows the party to enter the music hall in Topolla Theater
The Show Ticket needs to be purchased in order for the party to enter
Topolla Theater in Fourside.
Shyness Book
Give this book to the Chief of Tenda Village to cure the Tendas of their
shyness.
Silver Bracelet
Obtain the Silver Bracelet in the underground passage in Threed and equip
it on Paula. Buy and equip it on Ness and Jeff upon reaching Saturn
Valley.
Skip Sandwich
The HP recovery the Skip Sandwich offers is useless, but the increase in
walking speed can make things a little more convenient. It may also be
used to dodge enemies in a few situations, though you shouldn't do this
unless the party is too weak to fight.
Skip Sandwich DX
Use: recovers about 6~7 HP and increases walking speed for 20 seconds
The Skip Sandwich DX can be helpful when your party is weak and you want
to avoid enemies.
Slime Generator
The success rate of the Slime Generator is high enough against some
enemies to allow you to pin them down by using the Slime Generator each
round. The Slime Generator can also be used as an alternative to "defend"
if Jeff has nothing else to do.
You can sell or discard the Slime Generator once the Monkey's Love is
obtained in Deep Darkness. The Monkey's Love has the same effect as the
Slime Generator but can be used by any party member. I usually keep both,
though.
Slingshot
I do not recommend you use any Slingshot weapon, mostly because they have
a lower accuracy compared to each party member's standard weapon.
Snake
Use: inflicts 1~4 HP of damage and has a roughly 50% chance of poisoning
its target; gone after one use; the target of this item is
automatically determined
Snake Bag
Use: inflicts 1~4 HP of damage and has a roughly 50% chance of poisoning
its target; can be used an infinite number of times; the target of
this item is automatically determined
Not a great item, but it can be useful since you can use it as many times
as you like. I sometimes give it to Jeff or Poo and have them use it when
they have nothing else to do.
Sound Stone
Use: allows you to see all the Sanctuary Locations visited and listen to
the melodies learned
The Sound Stone can only be carried by Ness and cannot be removed from his
inventory once it is obtained. However, if Ness's inventory is full at the
time Buzz Buzz tries to give this item to Ness, it will be sent to Ness's
sister, Tracy, instead. This will free up a space in Ness's inventory for
most of the game. The best way to fill up Ness's inventory is to fight
Spiteful Crows and collect the Cookies they drop. Even without the Sound
Stone, Sanctuary melodies will be recorded and you you can properly
progress through the game.
Spectrum Beam
Jeff obtains the Spectrum Beam by repairing the Broken Cannon. Sell this
item once a better weapon becomes available for Jeff.
Speed Capsule
Use: permanently increases its user's Speed by 1
Spicy Jerky
Standard food item. Sell or discard if you need more space in the party's
inventory.
Stag Beetle
Use: solidifies a single, random target for a round; gone after one use
The Stag Beetle is similar to the Slime Generator and the Monkey's Love,
only it disappears after one use. The success rate of this item is very
high (close to 100% against normal enemies), though there is really no
need to use it.
Star Pendant
Use: defense item; equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; provides
protection from Fire, Freeze, Flash, and Paralysis
The Major Psychic Psycho in the Eighth Sanctuary Cave has a 1/128 chance
of carrying this item.
Stun Gun
Obtain and equip the Stun Gun before leaving Brick Road. Sell it once you
get a better weapon for Jeff.
Use: doubles the target's Guts for the duration of the battle
The Sudden Guts Pill can be useful for Ness during boss battles if you
want to increase the chances of getting a SMAAAASH!! hit. There is not
much of a point in using this item on anybody other than Ness.
Super Bomb
Use: inflicts about 140~400 HP of damage to its target and about 70~200 HP
of damage to adjacent targets; gone after one use
Use: diverts enemy attacks from the party to itself; has about 500 HP
Enemies will often attack the Super Plush Bear instead of the party while
the Bear is in a party member's inventory. This item can be useful, but
you shouldn't have to go out of your way to buy it.
Suporma
Use: nothing
The Suporma is absolutely useless. It can be sold for $25, but this
doesn't make up for the $200 or $50 investment Orange Kid asks for before
he gives you this item.
Sword of Kings
The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Sword of Kings, the
only effective weapon for Poo in the game. The Sword increases Poo's
Offense by 30, but requires a lot of luck or a lot of patience to obtain
(the first time I obtained this weapon, I had to defeat more than 100
Starman Supers; the next time, I fought only 3). Be warned, however, that
all enemies in Stonehenge will disappear once the boss at the end of this
area is defeated, and the Sword of Kings cannot be found in any other part
of the game.
T-Rex's Bat
You can teleport to Winters to buy the T-Rex's Bat as soon as Ness learns
Teleport[alpha], but it's not worth the money since a better weapon will
become available soon afterwards.
I've heard some people suggest buying this weapon the first time Jeff goes
through Winters by fighting the enemies in the area and selling the items
they drop. I have never tried this myself, but you'll probably need some
patience to do it.
Talisman Coin
Use: armor; equip on "other" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; increases Defense
and Luck
The Talisman Coin can be obtained by trading six Horns of Life with a
Tenda in Tenda village. I don't recommend you obtain this item, however,
as it is quickly superseded by the Shiny Coin sold in the Lost Underworld.
Talisman Ribbon
Obtain the Talisman Ribbon before leaving Dungeon Man with the Submarine.
Buy and equip the Tee Ball Bat before battling Frank. Sell it once the
Sand Lot Bat is bought in Happy Happy Village.
Teddy Bear
Use: diverts enemy attacks from a party member to itself; has about 100 HP
Enemies will often attack the Teddy Bear instead of the party while the
Bear is in a party member's inventory. It can be useful when Ness first
travels through Peaceful Rest Valley and the Underground Passage in
Threed. You should be able to find all the Teddy Bears you need from gift
boxes.
Tendakraut
Use: gives access into the Tenda village in the Lost Underworld
The Tenda Chief gives the Tendakraut to the party after curing all the
Tendas of their shyness. It will be taken away when the party first enters
the Tenda village in the Lost Underworld.
Buy and equip the Thick Fry Pan upon reaching Threed. Sell this weapon
once the Deluxe Fry Pan is bought in Dusty Dunes Desert.
Tiny Ruby
Give the Tiny Ruby to the man in the second floor of the Museum in Summers
once Poo joins Ness.
Toothbrush
There is no need to use the Toothbrush. This item does not always work,
and items such as the Slime Generator and the Monkey's Love serve the
same purpose but can be used indefinitely.
Toy Air Gun
Buy the Toy Air Gun from the arms dealer behind the Pizza Shop in Threed
if Jeff does not have the Broken Air Gun.
Travel Charm
The Travel Charm is not very useful at the time it is obtained because no
enemies in the early part of the game can use Paralysis. Sell them if
obtained.
Trick Yo-yo
I do not recommend you use any Yo-yos, since they have a lower accuracy
compared to each party member's standard weapon.
Trout Yogurt
The Trout Yogurt can be obtained from the maid on the 48th floor of the
Monotoli Building. If you obtain it, discard it or sell it for $24.
Vial of Serum
Ultimate Bat
Buy the Ultimate Bat from the shop in the Lost Underworld and equip it on
Ness before heading to the Eighth Sanctuary Cave.
Viper
Use: poisons a single target; gone after one use; the target of this item
is automatically determined
Use the Viper against bosses to inflict some extra damage. The success
rate of this item is 100%.
Vital Capsule
Use the Vital Capsule on Paula as soon as it is obtained. Paula needs the
most help in surviving in battle, and the extra HP will help her the most.
Wad of Bills
Use: frees the Runaway Five and allows the party to go to Threed
After watching the Runaway Five show, go to the theater owner and "use"
the Wad of Bills. The Runaway Five will then leave the theater and take
Ness and Paula to Threed.
Wet Towel
Xterminator Spray
(Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds)
Use: inflicts about 200 HP of damage to all insects; can be used many
times
I have never obtained the Xterminator Spray and have not had a chance of
testing it out. Starmen.net claims that the Mad Taxi has a 1/128 chance
of dropping this item.
Yogurt Dispenser
Use: allows access to the 48th floor of the Monotoli Building in Fourside
Give the Yogurt Dispensor to the Maid standing in front of the Monotoli
Building to gain access to the 48th floor of the building.
Yo-yo
I do not recommend you use any Yo-yos, since they have a lower accuracy
compared to each party member's standard weapon.
Zip Gun
Zombie Paper
"Use" the Zombie Paper in the circus tent in central Threed. Stay at the
Hotel after doing so and the entrance to the Underground Passage will
open.
