II.Game Basics
*******************************************************************************
1.Controls
L-BUTTON: "Talk" to NPCs, "check" containers and objects, advances dialogue,
and selects menu options. This is a handy all-purpose button.
CONTROL PAD/DIRECTIONAL PAD (D-PAD): Moves your characters on the field and
cycles through menu options.
A-BUTTON: Opens the main menu outside of battle; selects menu options and
advances dialogue.
B-BUTTON: Shows HP/PP and money carried on hand when pressed outside of
battle. Cancels and closes menu windows or answers "no" when asked
a question. Also advances dialogue.
X-BUTTON: Displays a map of the current town. This works only after you
receive the Map in the first town.
SELECT: Same as the B-Button.
R-BUTTON: Ring your bell when on a Bicycle.
START/Y-BUTTON: No function.
2.Main Menu Options
Open the main menu by pressing A outside of battle. The menu options are as
follows:
"Talk to:" Talk to any non-player character (NPC) you're standing next to.
You can also just press the L-button to talk to people.
"PSI:" Use special psychic (PSI) abilities. PSI moves are automatically
learned as characters get stronger and cost psychic points (PP) to
use. The PSI moves usable outside of battle are Lifeup (recovers HP),
Healing (cures ailments), and Teleport (travel to another town).
"Check:" Open gift boxes and other containers to obtain any items they hold,
or examine objects to interact with them depending on the situation.
You can also press the L-button to check objects.
"Goods:" Open the inventory menu (see the next section for info).
"Equip:" Equip your party with weapons and armor. An item must be in a party
member's inventory before he or she can equip it.
"Status:" Open the status window, which shows detailed information on each
party member (see the section "4.Status Menu" for more info).
3.Inventory Menu
Press the A button outside of battle to open the main menu and select "Goods"
to view your inventory. Select an item with the A button to access some
options:
"Use:" Use the selected item, or give the item to an NPC in some
situations.
"Give:" Transfer the item to someone else's inventory, or give the item to
the same character to move the item to the bottom of the list.
"Drop:" Get rid of the item. Be warned that dropped items can't be
retrieved. Items that can be found in only one place in the game
can't be dropped but can be stored (see Escargo Express in Town
Services below).
"Help!:" View a short (and sometimes humorous) description of the selected
item.
You can access any party member's inventory outside of battle, but each
character can use only what is held in his or her inventory during a fight.
4.Status Menu
Select "Status" from the main menu to view each character's attributes and
abilities. The information shown in the status window is as follows:
Level: A character's level is a measure of his or her strength. When
characters increase in level, their attributes increase and they may
learn new PSI abilities.
Status Effect: If a character is afflicted by an ailment, such as poison or
paralysis, it will be shown beneath their level.
Hit Points: Hit points (HP) represent the amount of life a character has.
When HP reaches 0, the character falls unconscious and can't do
do anything. HP can be restored while conscious by eating food,
using the PSI move Lifeup, resting at a Hotel, or talking to
certain people. Unconscious party members can be revived by going
to a Hospital, using certain medicinal items, or using the gamma
or omega version of the PSI move Healing.
Psychic Points: Psychic points (PP) are needed to use PSI abilities. Much
like HP, PP can be recovered by resting at a Hotel, eating PP
recovery food items, or talking to certain people.
Experience Points: Experience (exp.) points are earned by fighting and
defeating enemies. When a certain amount of exp. points is
accumulated, a party member increases in level.
PSI Info: Press A while in the status window to view short descriptions of a
party member's PSI abilities. Press B to return to the status
window.
Attributes: The status window also displays each party member's attributes.
The meaning of each attribute is described in the section
"6.Status Attributes and What They Mean" below.
5.Battle System
The battle system in EarthBound is similar to turn-based fighting systems of
many RPGs. Each character takes turns attacking to decrease the enemies' HP,
and enemies are defeated when their HP reaches 0. Like your party members,
all enemies have attributes and maximum HP and PP values, but they do not
increase in level and get stronger.
When your party wins a battle, they're awarded experience points and possibly
receive an item dropped by an enemy. If the party loses a battle, they'll
lose 50% of the money they were carrying and will return to your last save
point with only Ness conscious at 0 PP.
a)Approaching Enemies
Battle begins when your party makes contact with an enemy on the field. If
the party and the enemy meet face-to-face, battle begins normally. If the
party approaches an enemy from behind, you'll have one free round where
the enemy won't attack. If the enemy approaches the party from behind, the
enemy will get one free round instead.
b)Weak Enemies
Most enemies that are significantly weaker than the party try to run away,
making it easy for you to approach them from behind or avoid fighting. If
the enemy is weak enough, you'll get an instant victory against them.
Approaching an enemy from behind increases your chances of getting an
instant victory, while no instant victory will be awarded if an enemy
approaches the party from behind.
c)Rolling HP Counter
Party members' HP are shown on a rolling drum display that counts up or
down when a character takes damage or recovers HP. A party member will fall
unconscious only if their HP counter reaches 0. Thus, if you recover
someone who has taken heavy damage quickly enough, the character will avoid
falling unconscious. The HP display rolls quickly, however, and can be
relied upon only in later parts of the game.
d)Surviving Mortal Blows
When a party member receives damage greater than the amount of HP he or she
currently has, there is a slight chance the character will survive with 1
HP remaining. The probability of this occurring is greater with a higher
Guts attribute.
e)Battle Menu Options
"Bash/Shoot:" Use a party member's standard attack. "Bash" is displayed
when equipped with a melee weapon, while "shoot" is shown
when using a projectile weapon.
"Bash" attacks have some chance of getting SMAAAASH!! hits
that inflict two to three times more damage to most targets.
The probability of getting SMAAAASH!! hits is increased with
a higher Guts attribute. "Shoot" attacks can't get SMAAAASH!!
hits, but their damage is not reduced by shields.
"PSI:" Use a party member's PSI abilities. Information on PSI moves is
given in the section "3.PSI Information."
"Goods:" Open a character's inventory. Each party member can use only items
held in their inventory during battle.
"Defend:" Spend a turn defending instead of attacking. While defending,
damage inflicted by some types of physical attacks is reduced by
50%. Damage inflicted by PSI attacks isn't affected.
"Defend" doesn't seem to work against the following attacks:
Jeff's "shoot"
Jeff's Heavy Bazooka
Bottle Rockets (all types)
Bombs
Super Bombs
Yo-yos and Slingshots
"biting attack"
"take a bite using its poisonous fangs"
"bite you hard"
"charge forward"
"tear into you"
"peck at your eyes"
"fire a beam"
"growl and lunge forward"
"stomp with its huge foot"
"jab with a spear"
"utilize a paint attack"
"burst into flames" (death action)
"explode into bits" (death action)
"Run Away:" Attempt to escape a battle. This isn't guaranteed to work, and
important fights can't be escaped. You have a greater chance of
running away from slower enemies than from faster ones, and
your odds of success increase the more rounds you spend in a
fight.
"Auto Fight:" Let the computer control your party during a battle. The
computer relies on standard attacks and uses PSI only when
someone is heavily injured or is afflicted by an ailment.
Press B to cancel.
6.Status Attributes and What They Mean
This section explains what each status attribute means and how they affect
a character's fighting abilities.
a)Offense
Determines the amount of damage the character's physical attacks
inflict. The higher the number, the greater the damage.
b)Defense
Determines the amount of damage suffered from physical attacks. The
higher the number, the less damage a character incurs. Defense doesn't
reduce damage from PSI attacks, such as Freeze or Fire.
c)Speed
Determines the order of turns in battle. Usually the character with
higher Speed attacks before a slower character, though this isn't always
the case when Speed values are close to each other.
Characters with higher Speed also seem to dodge enemy attacks more often
and are more resistant to Bottle Rockets. Bottle Rockets inflict less
damage or don't work at all on targets faster than Jeff.
d)Guts
Determines the chance a "bash" attack will be a SMAAAASH!! hit or the
chance a party member will survive a mortal blow with only 1 HP left.
The higher the value, the better the chances.
e)Vitality
Determines how much a character's max HP increases when leveling up.
When Vitality increases, the character's max HP increases significantly:
Vitality increase max HP increase
----------------- ---------------
0 0~3
1 4~20
2 20~30
3 30~45
In general, max HP is about 15 times Vitality (e.g. if Ness has 10
Vitality, he should have about 150 max HP).
f)IQ
Similar to Vitality, except it affects max PP. The relationship between
IQ increase and max PP increase is as follows:
IQ increase max PP increase
----------- ---------------
0 0~2
1 3~7
2 8~20
In general, max PP is about 5 times IQ (an exception is for Ness near
the end of the game, during which his max PP is about 10 times his IQ).
g)Luck
Luck determines the success rate of some PSI moves and items. Characters
with higher Luck are more likely to avoid taking damage or being
affected by moves such as Defense Down or items such as the Counter-PSI
Unit (source: starmen.net).
7.Town Services
Almost every town in the game offers the following services:
a)Drugstore/Shop/Marketplace
Drugstores offer not only medicine but also weapons, armor, food, and
whatever else you might want. You can also sell your items at a 50%
markdown.
When buying weapons or armor, your party members' HP/PP windows either
flash, stay the same, or dim. A flashing HP/PP window means the selected
item will improve the character's stats; otherwise, the window stays the
same. A dimmed HP/PP window means the character can't equip or use the
selected item.
b)Hotel
Conscious party members can sleep at Hotels to restore HP and PP. Hotels in
towns that appear later in the game are usually more expensive than in
earlier towns, though some places let you sleep for free.
c)Hospital
Go to a Hospital to cure any ailment or revive unconscious party members.
Hospitals in towns that appear later in the game usually charge more than
in earlier towns, though some places provide treatment for free. For a list
of ailments, see the section "2.Status Effects."
The people in a typical Hospital are:
Receptionist: Talk to the receptionist near the entrance of most Hospitals
to revive someone unconscious.
Doctor: Doctors can cure colds, poison, nausea, and sunstroke.
Healer: The blue-haired Healers cure status effects Doctors do not. Their
treatments are "soften" (cures diamondization), "restore feeling"
(paralysis), and "purify" (possession).
Healers cure mushroomization as well. When he sees a mushroom
growing on someone's head, the Healer offers to buy it for $50.
Answer "yes" to remove the mushroom.
d)ATM
Almost every Hotel and Store has an ATM. Your balance automatically
increases as you win fights and never decreases as long as you don't
withdraw any money, but cash carried on hand is cut in half when the party
loses a battle.
e)Telephone/Pay Phone
You can use a telephone to call family members or request commercial
services. Black phones found in most Hotels are free, while tan phones in
most stores cost $1 per call.
The people you can call are:
Dad: Call Ness's dad to save your game.
Mom: Call Ness's mom when Ness is homesick to make him feel better
(see section "2.Status Effects" for info).
Escargo Express: Escargo Express stores unneeded items for you. Call Ness's
mom to learn their number.
Call Escargo Express to request a deliveryman to either
pickup or drop off items. The deliveryman can carry up to
3 items and charges $18 per delivery.
Mach Pizza: Mach Pizza shops can be found in the early towns of the game.
Go inside and talk to the cashier to learn their number.
Call Mach Pizza to order either a small or large Pizza (medium
pizzas are always sold out). Small Pizzas recover 120 HP for
one person, while Large Pizzas recover 240 HP for the entire
party. Delivery takes about 3 minutes.

III.General Information and Strategies
*******************************************************************************
1.Party Members
Without special equipment, all party members are vulnerable to Fire, Freeze,
Flash, Paralysis, and Hypnosis.
a)Ness
Offense: high
Defense: medium
Speed: low
Guts: high
Max HP: high
Max PP: medium
Luck: high
The main character of the game is also arguably the strongest party
member, with good survivability and a strong standard attack. Ness's
high Offense and Guts make his "bash" attack effective even in boss
battles, and his high Vitality gives him enough HP to stay alive in most
fights without trouble.
In terms of PSI, Ness is more of a defensive and support character. He
can learn the moves Lifeup and Healing to recover HP and cure ailments,
and he has several abilities that can debilitate enemies with status
effects. He has only one PSI move that inflicts damage to enemies, but
this move can drain Ness's PP if you're not careful, and it occasionally
fails to work. It's often better to save Ness's PP for Lifeup and
Healing and use his PSI attacks only against bosses and groups of
enemies.
Ness's main weakness is his low to mediocre Speed. He usually attacks
last or second to the last among the four party members, and he may
sometimes fail to save someone's life in time if one of his friends is
low on HP or mortally wounded. You can compensate for this weakness by
having your fastest party member always carry some food.
Use any Guts Capsules you find on Ness to increase his chances of
getting SMAAAASH!! hits, and equip him with the Night Pendant to protect
him from Flash; given the effectiveness of Ness's "bash," it will hinder
your party if he starts uncontrollably crying. Furthermore, you don't
want him to be instantly defeated because he has the best chance of
reviving or healing everybody else.
b)Paula
Offense: low
Defense: low
Speed: high
Guts: medium
Max HP: low
Max PP: high
Luck: high
Paula is the main PSI attacker in your party. She acts as the main line
of attack against most bosses and can make short work of some strong
normal enemies. As such, you should keep Paula well protected, or else
you might find yourself severely handicapped in tough fights. You can
think of Ness and Paula as forming the anchor of the party, with each
character's strengths making up for the other's weaknesses well.
Unlike Ness, Paula has a weak standard attack and poor survivability.
To help Paula stay alive, equip her with your best armor and give her
any Vital Capsules you find to boost her HP. Protect her from Thunder
and Fire with the Franklin Badge and the Flame Pendant as well. Take
these measures and Paula should have no trouble surviving.
Paula's strong points are her Speed and IQ. Her high PP allows her to
use PSI attacks often, and her high Speed is critical when you need to
put up a shield to defend against powerful enemy PSI attacks. Give her
Speed Capsules or equip her with armor that increases Speed if she isn't
able to put up a shield in time to protect the party from the PSI
attacks Fire and Starstorm.
Paula's special ability is "pray," a move that causes some random effect
that can help you or hurt you. Use this ability only as a last resort.
The different prayer effects are as follows:
Subtle light: Recovers 6% of max HP for all allies. This seems to
occur the most often.
Warm light: Recovers 12% of max HP for all allies.
Golden light: Recovers some HP for a single ally. The amount recovered
is equal to the difference between the target's max HP
and Paula's current HP (source: starmen.net).
Mysterious light: Recovers minuscule PP for all allies.
Dazzling light (type 1): Flash[alpha] on all allies and enemies. The
battle dialogue window describes this light
as enveloping Ness and his friends.
Dazzling light (type 2): Moderate damage to a single enemy. The battle
dialogue window describes this light as
chasing an enemy.
Mysterious aroma: Puts all allies and enemies to sleep.
Heaven rending sound: Makes all allies and enemies feel strange.
Heavy air: Slightly decreases the Defense of all allies and enemies
for the duration of the battle.
Rainbow colored light: Revives all unconscious allies and defeated
enemies to full HP.
c)Jeff
Offense: high
Defense: medium
Speed: low
Guts: medium
Max HP: low
Luck: medium
Jeff is a scientific whizz kid who can repair broken items and use tools
that no other party member can use. He is unable to use PSI, but he is
the only party member who can utilize guns, bazookas, and Bottle
Rockets, which are one-time use weapons that can inflict 150 to over
1000 HP of damage depending on the type of rocket used.
Jeff's guns can boost his Offense to the second highest or sometimes
even the highest among his friends, making his standard attack a good
complement to Ness's "bash" against most normal enemies. His "shoot"
can't get SMAAAASH!! hits, but it's more accurate than standard "bash"
attacks, its damage isn't reduced by shields, and it doesn't revert
enemies feeling strange to normal.
In boss fights, Bottle Rockets usually make Jeff your biggest offensive
force. Bottle Rockets are sold throughout the game at a cheap price, and
they inflict enough damage to take away about a quarter to half of most
bosses' HP. None of his other items are as powerful but are useful in
other situations. I describe each of his items in the section "4.Jeff's
Tools."
Most of Jeff's best weapons can be obtained only by repairing broken
items. Each broken item requires Jeff to have an IQ above a certain
amount to be fixed, and Jeff automatically repairs something if possible
when the party rests. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee Jeff will
repair something if his IQ meets or exceeds the requirement, so try to
rest somewhere free when you want him to repair something. Many repaired
or broken items can't be thrown away and can only be given to Escargo
Express if you want to get rid of them.
Jeff's main weakness is Speed, and he almost always goes last or second
to the last among his friends. His Vitality is the second lowest in the
party, making him somewhat vulnerable against stronger enemies but still
manageable compared to Paula. Equip Jeff with your second best armor to
keep him alive.
Jeff's special ability is "spy." "Spy" reveals an enemy's Offense,
Defense, and PSI vulnerabilities and takes any item the enemy might be
carrying. Be sure to use "spy" before using status affecting PSI attacks
such as Flash or Hypnosis because those moves are unlikely to work on
enemies not vulnerable to them.
d)Poo
Offense: low (but high growth rate)
Defense: medium
Speed: high (very high with the Cloak of Kings)
Guts: low
Max HP: high
Max PP: low
Luck: low (very high with the Bracer and Diadem of Kings)
Poo is mostly a PSI specialist who has a versatile set of offensive and
recovery PSI moves but low Offense. His Freeze and Starstorm can inflict
heavy damage to most normal enemies and bosses, and his Lifeup and
Healing can keep everyone alive and healthy. Unfortunately, Poo has less
PP than Ness and Paula, so be sure to buy Bottles of DXwater (recovers
40 PP for only Poo) or use PSI Magnet when going through long dungeons.
Poo's biggest weakness is his low Offense. While his Offense has a high
natural growth rate, his "bash" will likely remain weaker than Paula's
unless you spend time leveling him up. The Sword of Kings, Poo's only
weapon, can offset this weakness, but this weapon is extremely rare and
increases Offense by just 30. To offset his weak "bash", give Poo
offensive items, such as Super Bombs, Mummy Wraps, and the Monkey's
Love, or use Freeze.
Don't equip Poo with the same weapons and armor the other party members
use; they 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.
Don't give Poo most food items because they recover only about 6 of his
HP. Only a few food items work for Poo, and they are actually better for
him than for everyone else. These items are:
Brain Food Lunch : recovers about 600 HP and 100 PP
Bottle of Water : recovers about 10 PP
Bottle of DXwater : recovers about 40 PP
Medicinal items, such as Secret Herbs, and other PP recovery items work
normally for Poo.
Poo's special ability is "mirror," which allows him to acquire an
enemy's stats and moves. Its success rate is about 50%, though it
doesn't work on bosses and on stronger enemies. The only worthwhile use
I've found for "mirror" is to use it on enemies that can recover HP
without using PP. Otherwise, most enemies susceptible to "mirror" are
weaker than Poo and not worth the effort.
2.Status Effects
This section gives information on all the status effects in the game and
how to deal with each. They are listed in alphabetical order.
The cures listed under each status effect are the most practical ways of
removing the status effect rather than all of them. Characters and objects
that cure almost everything for free such as the Saturn Valley doctor or
the Instant Revitalizing Device are generally not mentioned.
a)cold
Effects: -inflicts 4 HP of damage each turn in battle
-inflicts 2 HP of damage every four seconds outside of battle
Cures: -Healing[alpha]
-use a Cold Remedy
Catching a cold is a problem in only one place early in the game. Use
Healing[alpha] outside of battle or after you have defeated any enemies
that can give you a cold to cure this status effect. If you have Cold
Remedies, use those up before using Healing when travelling away from
town.
b)crying
Effect: reduces the accuracy of a character's standard attack by 50%
Cures: -Healing[beta]
-end the battle
Ness and Jeff are hindered the most by crying. If you're fighting normal
enemies and only one person starts crying, it can usually be ignored. If
both Ness and Jeff start crying and you're fighting more powerful
enemies, either use PSI attacks or use Healing[beta] on Ness (Jeff can
use the Heavy Bazooka if he has it).
This status effect doesn't seem to reduce the accuracy of some enemy
attacks, such as "tore into" or "lunge forward."
c)diamondize
Effect: affected person can't do anything
Cures: -Healing[gamma]
-use a Secret Herb, Cup of Lifenoodles, or a Horn of Life
Diamondization is equivalent to being unconscious, except HP isn't
depleted. Use Healing[gamma], a Secret Herb, or a Cup of Lifenoodles to
recover anyone diamondized as soon as possible.
d)feel strange
Effect: affected character sometimes targets a random character--self,
friend, or foe--with whatever move used
Cures: -Healing[beta]
-receive damage
-end the battle
Feeling strange isn't much of a problem if only one person is affected
by it. In those cases, ignore it and have the affected character
"defend" or stick to standard attacks. If multiple party members start
feeling strange, end the fight as soon as possible with your strongest
PSI attacks or use Healing[beta].
e)homesick
Effect: Ness randomly wastes turns in battle
Cure: -call Ness's mom
-go to a Sanctuary spot
This status effect occurs rarely but randomly. Call or talk to Ness's
mom to cure homesickness. Regularly calling Ness's mom doesn't prevent
homesickness.
f)mushroomize/mashroomize
Effects: -equivalent to feeling strange in battle
-rotates movement controls outside of battle *
Cures: -talk to a Healer in any Hospital
-talk to the girl in Peaceful Rest Valley
-wade in a hot spring
Mushroomization is much worse than feeling strange because it persists
outside of battle and can't be healed by PSI or items. The best course
of action is to defeat mushroom enemies first in any battle. Luckily,
this status effect is a problem at only three places in the game.
If someone becomes mushroomized, get rid of the mushroom before
venturing into dangerous territory if possible or have the affected
character stick to standard attacks, Lifeup/Healing, or food items.
* If a party member is mushroomized, your movement controls change after
a few seconds. From what I can tell, the button assignments on the
control pad seem to rotate either to the left, to the right, or by 180
degrees. For example, if the button assignments rotate to the right,
the control pad works like this:
UP = move left
RIGHT = move up
DOWN = move right
LEFT = move down
g)nausea
Effects: -inflicts 16~24 HP of damage each turn in battle
-inflicts 10 HP of damage every two seconds outside of battle
Cures: -Healing[beta]
-use a Refreshing Herb
Heal anyone nauseous with Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb outside of
battle or after all enemies that can cause nausea are defeated.
h)numb/paralysis
Effects: renders a character unable to physically attack, use items, or
"defend;" PSI is still usable
Cures: -Healing[gamma]
-use a Secret Herb
Use Healing[gamma] or a Secret Herb on anyone paralyzed as soon as
possible. Equipping items such as the Travel Charm or the Great Charm
protect from the PSI move Paralysis but not numbness caused by Flash.
i)poison
Effects: -inflicts 16~24 HP of damage each turn in battle
-inflicts 10 HP of damage every two seconds outside of battle
Cures: -Healing[beta]
-use a Refreshing Herb
Use Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb outside of battle or after any
enemies that can cause poison are defeated.
j)possess
Effect: a Tiny Li'l Ghost attacks a party member each round in battle
Cures: -Healer in any Hospital
-Saturn Valley doctor
There are very few enemies that can cause possession, and it's more of a
nuisance than a threat. The Tiny Li'l Ghost has 2 attacks: a standard
attack that usually inflicts 1 HP of damage and a "reach out with its
icy hand" attack that can solidify one person. The ghost has high Speed
and usually attacks first in each round, even in battles near the end of
the game when the party is at higher levels. The Tiny Li'l Ghost attacks
only once per round even if multiple party members are possessed.
You can cure possession by going to a Healer at a Hospital and selecting
the "purify" option. You can also go to the doctor in Saturn Valley and
have the ghost removed for free.
Special attacks or PSI moves that target the entire party, such as
Starstorm or Fire, also damage the ghost and may defeat it, though
shields that protect the entire party also protect the ghost. The Tiny
Li'l Ghost has about 100 HP.
k)sleep
Effect: affected character can't do anything for a random number of
rounds
Cures: -Healing[alpha]
-receive damage
-wait a few rounds
-end the battle
Sleep is usually nothing to worry about and can be ignored. Someone who
has fallen asleep may wake up if physically attacked.
l)solidify
Effect: incapacitates a character for a single turn (occasionally more)
Cure: -wait 1 or 2 rounds
-end the battle
Solidification poses a minor threat and can be ignored. It usually lasts
for one turn, but some attacks such as the Arachnid!'s spider silk can
immobilize a target for two or more turns. There is no way to heal
solidification.
m)sunstroke
Effects: -inflicts 4 HP of damage each turn in battle
-inflicts 2 HP of damage every four seconds outside of battle
Cures: Healing[alpha]
Check for sunstroke when in a desert by pressing the B button or SELECT
if you see the screen flash red. Sunstroke can occur only when beads of
sweat spout from the party. Don't buy or keep Wet Towels for healing
sunstrokes; Healing[alpha] is sufficient.
n)unable to concentrate
Effect: prevents PSI use for 4 rounds
Cures: end the battle
You will rarely, if ever, see a party member become unable to
concentrate. Only a few enemies can cause this status effect, and
attacks that disrupt concentration tend to have low success rates.
A person carrying the Brain Stone is immune to this status effect.
3.PSI Information
OFFENSE
a)PSI Rockin (or whatever you name as your "favorite thing")
PSI Rockin is Ness's special PSI attack. It inflicts significant damage
to all enemies on screen.
PSI Rockin is undoubtedly powerful, but it can be a drain on Ness's PP
and becomes less useful when Paula joins Ness and offers a more
versatile set of PSI attacks. Try to conserve Ness's PP for recovery PSI
instead for the most part. Don't use PSI Rockin except in boss fights
and against groups of normal enemies, and stick to PSI Rockin[beta] for
its low cost and decent damage.
This attack sometimes fails to work: the higher the target's Speed, the
more likely PSI Rockin will fail (source: starmen.net). Generally, PSI
Rockin's success rate is close to 100% and the chance of failure is
usually not a big deal.
Counter: There are only two enemies that can use PSI Rockin. I discuss
them in the walkthrough.
-alpha
Level Learned: 8 (Ness)
Damage: 40~120 HP
The alpha version of PSI Rockin is useful during the beginning of the
game before Paula joins Ness. Use it in early boss fights and when you
are overpowered by a group of enemies.
-beta
Level Learned: 22 (Ness)
Damage: 90~270 HP
This move is the most cost-effective version of PSI Rockin and is
useful against groups of enemies and bosses for much of the game. Go
with this move for general use even after PSI Rockin[gamma] and [omega]
are learned.
-gamma
Level Learned: 49 (Ness)
Damage: 190~450 HP
PSI Rockin[gamma] and [omega] are usually too costly to use until the
very end of the game. Use these attacks only once or twice against
bosses or in emergencies.
-omega
Level Learned: 75 (Ness)
Damage: 430~920 HP
b)Flash
Flash randomly causes all enemies on screen to start uncontrollably
crying, feel strange, become paralyzed, or be instantly defeated. Some
enemies are vulnerable to Flash and are always affected, while others
are resistant.
Flash will most likely cause uncontrollable crying, but in my
experience enemies aren't hindered enough by crying to help much. The
later versions of Flash have a decent chance of instantly defeating
something, but the PP cost and unreliable success rate of Flash limit
its usefulness; better alternatives are usually available.
Counter: PSI Shield[sigma] will suffice. The Night Pendant protects from
Flash and can be found near the middle of the game--equip it on
Ness. Note that enemy moves equivalent to Flash, such as "emit
a glorious light," can be defended against only with Flash
protective armor and not a PSI Shield.
-alpha
Level Learned: 18 (Ness)
Success Rate: depends on target
Status Effects: cry (~85%)
feel strange (~15%)
-beta
Level Learned: 38 (Ness)
Success Rate: depends on target

-gamma

Success Rate: depends on target
Status Effects: cry (~45%)

instant defeat (~20%)
-omega
Level Learned: 67 (Ness)
Success Rate: depends on target
Status Effects: cry (~35%)
feel strange (~10%)
paralysis (~15%)
instant defeat (~40%)
c)Fire
Fire inflicts mediocre damage to an entire row of enemies. Some enemies
are vulnerable to Fire and receive extra damage, while others are
resistant or almost immune.
Use Fire when you want to soften up a row of enemies susceptible to it.
Follow that up with "bash" attacks to defeat multiple enemies in a
single round. Fire can also be an alternative PSI attack against bosses
resistant to Freeze.
The low cost-effectiveness and underwhelming damage of Fire against
enemies not vulnerable to it makes this move less useful later in the
game. Once learned, use Thunder[gamma] instead of Fire against groups of
neutral targets.
Counter: PSI Shield[sigma] will suffice. Fire protective armor (e.g. the
Flame Pendant) can greatly help in protecting Paula and Jeff
who have low HP. Note that Fire equivalent attacks, such as
"breathe fire," can't be defended against with a PSI Shield,
but damage is reduced by Fire protective items.
-alpha
Level Learned: 3 (Paula)
Damage: 25~40 HP
60~100 HP to vulnerable targets

Level Learned: 19 (Paula)
Damage: 50~80 HP

-gamma

180~300 HP to vulnerable targets
-omega
Level Learned: 64 (Paula)
Damage: 100~160 HP
240~400 HP to vulnerable targets
d)Freeze
Freeze inflicts significant damage to a single target and has a 25%
chance of causing solidification (source: starmen.net). Some enemies are
vulnerable to Freeze and suffer extra damage, while others are resistant
or almost immune.
Freeze is arguably the most useful PSI attack in the game because of its
low PP cost and effectiveness against bosses. Use Freeze when Paula or
Poo's standard attack is weak or when facing strong enemies that give
you trouble. For enemies resistant to Freeze, Fire is usually the best
alternative.
Counter: Only a few enemies can use Freeze. Use PSI Shield[sigma] for
protection or defeat the enemy as quickly as possible.
-alpha
Level Learned: 1 (Paula)
15 (Poo)
Damage: 55~90 HP
150~230 HP to vulnerable targets
Status Effects: Solidify (25%)
The low PP cost and high offensive power of Freeze[alpha] make it
effective against normal enemies in the early and middle parts of the
game.
-beta
Level Learned: 11 (Paula)
15 (Poo)
Damage: 110~180 HP
270~450 HP to vulnerable targets

Status Effects: Solidify (25%)
-omega
Level Learned: 46 (Paula)
Damage: 230~350 HP
540~900 HP to vulnerable targets
Status Effects: Solidify (25%)
e)Thunder
Depending on what version of this attack you use, Thunder summons 1 to 4
lightning bolts that either hit a random target or hit nothing. The
probability that each bolt will strike something increases with the
number of enemies on screen (source: starmen.net):
1 enemy: 25%
2 enemies: 50%
3 enemies: 75%
4+ enemies: 100%
Thunder also eliminates any PSI Shield protecting a target in one
strike, though PSI Shield[beta] and [omega] reflect damage before
disappearing.
Thunder[alpha] and [beta] are somewhat useful for eliminating PSI
shields early in the game before Jeff gets the Neutralizer or the Shield
Killer. Unfortunately, because of the randomness of Thunder, it may
sometimes be better to repeatedly use Freeze[alpha] instead to eliminate
a PSI shield.
For inflicting damage, use Thunder[gamma] against groups of enemies not
vulnerable to Fire or as a low-cost alternative to Starstorm. Based on
the above probabilities, you should probably use Thunder only when
facing 3 or more enemies.
Thunder[gamma] is probably the only version of this move good enough for
general use. Thunder[alpha] and [beta] summon just 1 and 2 bolts
respectively and don't hit enough targets to be very reliable, while
Thunder[omega] is less damaging and less cost-effective than Starstorm
without being much cheaper in PP cost.
Counter: The best protection is the Franklin Badge, which should be kept
in Paula's inventory for the most part. PSI Shields should
usually not be necessary. Note that PSI shields don't protect
against Thunder equivalent attacks such as "Electrical shock
attack."
-alpha

Success Rate: see above
-omega
Level Learned: 55 (Poo)
Effect: summons 4 lightning bolts; eliminates PSI shields on hit
Damage: 115~280 HP per bolt
Success Rate: see above
f)Starstorm
Poo's Starstorm inflicts significant damage to all enemies on screen,
much like Ness's PSI Rockin. Starstorm is a little better than PSI
Rockin, however, since Starstorm has a 100% success rate, has smaller
damage spread, and costs less PP. Unfortunately, Poo also has less PP
than Ness does, so this attack is still costly to use. Use Starstorm
only in emergencies. It's usually better to conserve Poo's PP for Freeze
and Lifeup/Healing.
Counter: Always use PSI Shield[sigma] or [omega] when facing an enemy
that can use Starstorm, and be sure Paula has sufficient Speed
to go before the enemy attacks. If Paula doesn't have enough
Speed to put up a shield in time, equip her with the Rabbit's
Foot found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave. If you get hit by
Starstorm, use Lifeup[omega] or give priority to recovering
Ness and Poo before their HP counters reach 0 (Ness will likely
survive this attack most of the time). Those two characters can
then revive Paula and Jeff.
-alpha
Level Learned: n/a (Poo learns this at a certain point in the game)
Damage: 300~435 HP
-omega
Level Learned: n/a (ditto)
Damage: 580~860 HP
RECOVER
a)Lifeup
Lifeup restores lost HP and keeps you alive. It's an essential move, and
how you use it can make the difference between victory and defeat in
battle.
At low levels when Ness has little PP, you'll get into trouble if Ness
can't use Lifeup while in dangerous territory. To avoid wasting PP, try
to think one or two rounds ahead in battle and estimate the maximum
possible damage your enemies can inflict, taking into account the
likelihood that Ness or the enemy will attack first. Use Lifeup or eat
food when someone's HP falls below this maximum.
If you have any food items, use those up before resorting to Lifeup
while away from town. Save your best food items for recovery during
battle and use your weakest food items to recover after fights. Give
some food to your fastest party member before entering difficult fights
just in case someone gets mortally wounded.
In later parts of the game when estimating minimum HP values becomes
impractical, just use common sense and utilize Lifeup often. Once Poo
joins the party, have him use Lifeup instead of Ness when possible
because Poo has higher Speed and can recover PP with PSI Magnet or
Bottles of DXwater. Take advantage of the rolling HP counter as well,
and avoid using Lifeup until someone's HP falls at least below 150 or
200.
Counter: A lot of enemies can use Lifeup[alpha], but it's usually not a
big problem. Just concentrate your attacks on one target at a
time.
-alpha
Level Learned: 2 (Ness)
15 (Poo)
Recovery: 70~120 HP
Food items such as the Hamburger are good alternatives to Lifeup[alpha]
in the early parts of the game. Always carry some food to prepare for
major fights or for long walks away from town.
-beta
Level Learned: 20 (Ness)
15 (Poo)
Recovery: 230~370 HP
-gamma
Level Learned: 39 (Ness)
46 (Poo)
Recovery: max HP
-omega
Level Learned: 70 (Ness)
Recovery: 310~470 HP for all allies
b)Healing
Healing removes a single status effect from one person. Healing can't
cure all status effects, but the number of ailments that Healing can
cure increases with each successive version of this move.
The rule for using Healing is simple: use the move that heals an ailment
with the lowest PP cost. Listed below are the status effects each
version of Healing should be used to cure.
A few items can act as alternatives to Healing: Refreshing Herbs to cure
poison and nausea, Secret Herbs for paralysis and diamondization, and
Cups of Lifenoodles and Horns of Life for reviving someone unconscious.
Buy 1 or 2 of these items when they're available if Ness or Poo haven't
learned Healing moves that cure the above ailments.
Counter: The only time Healing should give you trouble is when enemies
use Healing[omega] to revive an already defeated enemy.
Fortunately, this happens rarely and only near the end of the
game.
-alpha
Level Learned: 10 (Ness)
15 (Poo)
Cures: cold, sleep, sunstroke
-beta
Level Learned: 24 (Ness)
15 (Poo)
Cures: poison, nausea, feeling strange, uncontrollable crying
-gamma
Level Learned: 53 (Ness)
36 (Poo)
Cures: unconscious (to 25% of max HP), diamondization, paralysis
Healing[gamma] can revive someone unconscious and restore 25% of their
HP. There is some chance of failure, however, and this move is best
used to revive someone outside of battle.
-omega
Level Learned: 52 (Poo)
Cures: unconscious (to full HP)
Healing[omega] recovers someone unconscious and restores full HP with a
100% success rate. Use this move when reviving someone in battle.
c)PSI Magnet
PSI Magnet transfers some PP from enemies to the user of this move.
Use PSI Magnet against enemies that don't pose much of a threat (e.g.
paralyzed enemies) or when Paula or Poo's "bash" is ineffective. PSI
Magnet can be useful if you find yourself short on PP recovery items
while away from a place to rest, but you'll have to use this move many
times for it to make much of a difference.
If you find this move tedious to use, you can either hunt for Magic
Truffles in Deep Darkness (if you didn't find them all already), buy
Magic Tarts in Summers, or buy Bottles of DXwater for Poo in Scaraba or
Deep Darkness. If you haven't reached these towns yet, your best
alternative to PSI Magnet may be to hunt for Magic Butterflies.
Counter: PSI Magnet is a problem when Ness is at low levels. Defeat any
enemy that can use PSI Magnet as soon as possible when away
from town to avoid being left stranded without PP.
-alpha
Level Learned: 15 (Paula)
21 (Poo)
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
-omega
Level Learned: 24 (Paula)
27 (Poo)
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from all enemies
PSI Magnet[omega] can be very effective when facing a group of weak PSI
using enemies such as Pit Bull Slugs and Foppies.
ASSIST
a)Shield
Shield protects from some forms of physical attacks. All versions of
Shield reduce damage by 50%, but [beta] and [omega] also reflect 50% of
inflicted damage. The battle command "defend" can be used with Shield to
reduce damage even further.
Each use of Shield protects from 3 physical attacks (up to a maximum of
8 attacks), but shields that reflect and shields that don't can't be
used together. For example, using Shield[alpha] and then Shield[beta] on
the same character gives you a reflecting shield that protects from 3
hits rather than 6. Note that a SMAAAASH!! hit eliminates a Shield in
one strike.
Shield doesn't reduce damage inflicted by all types of physical attacks,
though [beta] and [omega] always reflect physical damage. Damage from
the following attacks aren't reduced by Shield:
Jeff's "shoot"
Jeff's Heavy Bazooka
Bottle Rockets (all types)
Bombs
Super Bombs
Bag of Dragonite
Yo-yos and Slingshots
"biting attack"
"take a bite using its poisonous fangs"
"bite you hard"
"charge forward"
"tear into you"
"growl and lunge forward"
"fire a beam"
"peck at your eyes"
"stomp with its huge foot"
"utilize a paint attack"
"jab with a spear"
"burst into flames" (death action; no reflection)
"explode into bits" (death action; no reflection)
The battle command "defend" also doesn't seem to work against these
moves.
Counter: Some later enemies have Shield[alpha] or [beta] on them from
the beginning of battle. Attack with Freeze to bypass the
shield, or use Jeff's Neutralizer or Shield Killer.
-alpha
Level Learned: 12 (Ness)
15 (Poo)
Effect: protects a single character
-beta
Level Learned: 34 (Ness)

-omega
Level Learned: 51 (Poo)
Effect: protects all allies
Reflection: 50% of inflicted damage
b)PSI Shield
PSI Shield absorbs all damage inflicted by PSI, and PSI Shield[beta] and
[omega] reflect 100% of damage back to the PSI user. The shield doesn't
protect against Assist or Recovery PSI moves or the following PSI
equivalent attacks:
"emit a glorious light" -- equivalent to Flash[omega]
"breathe fire" -- Fire[gamma]
"shoot out a spray of fire" -- Fire[omega]
"crashing boom bang attack" -- Thunder[beta]
"electrical shock attack" -- Thunder[beta]
Only PSI protective items such as the Franklin Badge, the Night Pendant,
or the Sea Pendant protect against the above moves.
Each use of PSI Shield protects from 3 PSI attacks, up to a maximum of 8
attacks. Shields that reflect damage and shields that don't can't be
used together.
Only PSI Shield[sigma] is good for general use. The other moves either
don't offer enough protection or cost too much PP, though PSI Shield
[omega] can defeat any Starstorm user.
Counter: Use Jeff's Neutralizer or Shield Killer to eliminate an enemy's
PSI Shield; use Thunder only as a last resort. Be warned that
some enemies are protected with a reflecting PSI shield from
the start of a fight.
-alpha
Level Learned: 6 (Paula)
Effect: protects a single character
-beta
Level Learned: 51 (Paula)
Effect: protects a single character

Effect: protects all allies
I suggest you mostly use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against PSI
attacks.
-omega
Level Learned: 60 (Paula)
Effect: protects all allies
Reflection: 100% of damage
PSI Shield[omega] costs too much PP for general use. The damage
reflection can be useful against some enemies that use Starstorm, but
most enemies shouldn't require the 42 PP cost.
c)Hypnosis
Hypnosis can make someone fall asleep. Characters that are asleep can't
do anything until they wake up after a random number of rounds or after
being attacked. Some enemies are vulnerable to Hypnosis while others are
resistant or immune.
Hypnosis can be helpful when facing a group of enemies. If an enemy is
susceptible to Hypnosis, putting that enemy to sleep can reduce the
number of foes you have to deal with while you concentrate on defeating
its cohorts. As with most status affecting PSI moves, use Hypnosis only
against enemies that are vulnerable to it (use Jeff's "spy" ability to
see an enemy's PSI weaknesses). Hypnosis is not very helpful in battles
against a single enemy because a sleeping enemy can wake up if attacked.
Counter: Sleep can usually be ignored; use Healing[alpha] if you need to
wake someone up.
-alpha
Level Learned: 4 (Ness)
Effect: targets a single character
Success Rate: depends on target
-omega
Level Learned: 27 (Ness)
Effect: targets all enemies
Success Rate: depends on target
d)Paralysis
Paralysis can render someone numb and immobile. Paralyzed characters
can't physically attack or use items but can still use PSI.
Paralysis can be a potent move because paralyzed enemies waste most
turns doing nothing, and some powerful enemies are vulnerable to it.
Unfortunately, like most status affecting moves, Paralysis has a low
success rate against many enemies, and you should usually check with
Jeff's "spy" (or a guide) to see if an enemy is susceptible to Paralysis
before using it.
Counter: The Travel Charm, Great Charm, and Crystal Charm can be
equipped for protection, but those items should be replaced
with Flash or Fire protective armor later in the game. Heal any
paralyzed party member with Healing[gamma] or a Secret Herb as
soon as possible.
-alpha
Level Learned: 14 (Ness)
Effect: targets a single character
Success Rate: depends on target
-omega
Level Learned: 29 (Ness)
Effect: targets all enemies
Success Rate: depends on target
e)Offense Up
Offense Up increases someone's Offense by a small amount. The increase
in Offense is cumulative with successive uses of this move, but it stops
working once someone's Offense is increased by a certain amount.
Generally, you can use Offense Up up to 4 times on one person.
Offense Up isn't very useful because the increase in Offense it provides
doesn't make much of a difference. You're usually better off attacking
rather than investing in stats increases.
Counter: All stats increasing moves don't make much of a difference and
can be ignored.
-alpha
Level Learned: 21 (Paula)
Effect: increases the Offense of a single character
Offense Increase: 6% of current Offense the first three times
4~5% of current Offense the last fourth time
0 for the fifth time and after
-omega
Level Learned: 40 (Paula)
Effect: increases the Offense of all allies
Offense Increase: 6% of current Offense the first three times
4~5% of current Offense the last fourth time
0 for the fifth time and after
f)Defense Down
Defense Down works just like Offense Up except it lowers enemies'
Defense and sometimes fails to work. Defense Down stops working once
someone's Defense is decreased by a certain amount. In general, you can
use it up to 5 times on any single target.
The problem with Defense Down is the same as that of Offense Up, namely
the decrease in Defense is too small to make much of a difference.
Counter: All stats reducing attacks don't pose a threat and can be
ignored.
-alpha
Level Learned: 29 (Paula)
Effect: targets a single character
Success Rate: 80~100% (is lower for some targets)
Defense Decrease: 6% of current Defense the first four times
4~5% of current Defense the last fifth time
0 for the sixth time and after
-omega
Level Learned: 54 (Paula)
Effect: targets all enemies
Success Rate: 80~100% (is lower for some targets)
Defense Decrease: 6% of current Defense the first four times
4~5% of current Defense the last fifth time
0 for the sixth time and after
g)Brainshock
Brainshock can cause someone to feel strange and randomly target anyone,
including him or herself, with whatever move used. Enemies feeling
strange revert to normal if hit with "bash" but not Jeff's "shoot."
Brainshock is worthwhile to use only in a few places. Enemies
susceptible to Brainshock are usually pretty weak to begin with, and
anyone feeling strange can easily revert to normal if "bashed."
Counter: Use Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb if an important
character starts to feel strange. Otherwise, have the affected
character "defend" or use standard attacks if no one is heavily
injured.
-alpha

OTHER
a)Teleport
Teleport lets you instantly travel to any town you have already visited.
The party needs a running start to use this move, and colliding with an
obstacle results in failure. You can use the D-PAD to control the
party's running path.
-alpha

4.Jeff's Tools
This section contains information and strategies on items usable only by
Jeff. Items are listed in alphabetical order.
The main drawback of most of Jeff's weapons is a low success rate. Since
most broken or repaired items can't be discarded or sold, give things you
don't need to Escargo Express. Items Jeff should hold on to are Big/Multi
Bottle Rockets, the Slime Generator, the Neutralizer, the Shield Killer,
and the Heavy Bazooka.
a)Bad Key Machine
Effect: opens certain locked doors
Obtained: Maxwell in Snow Wood Boarding House
The Bad Key Machine is not used once Jeff rescues Ness and Paula. Give
it to Escargo Express as soon as possible.
b)Bazooka
Damage: 50~120 HP
Peripheral Damage: 20~60 HP
Obtained: merchant in southern Scaraba outside the Pyramid exit
The Bazooka is not very useful because Jeff's "shoot" usually inflicts
more damage. Don't buy this weapon.
c)Big Bottle Rocket
Effect: damages a single target (usually about 500 HP)
Obtained: -arms dealer in the Fourside Department Store
-arms dealer in Scaraba Hotel
The Big Bottle Rocket can make many boss battles much easier. Its price
is cheap considering the damage it inflicts, and you should always keep
1 or 2 of these in Jeff's inventory once they become available and until
you're 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
Effect: damages a single target (usually about 100~150 HP)
Obtained: -arms dealer in Threed
-arms dealer in Dusty Dunes Desert
-Fourside Department Store
-arms dealer in Scaraba Hotel
The Bottle Rocket is useful in a few early boss fights.
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.
The effectiveness of all types of Bottle Rockets depends on Jeff and the
target's Speed (source: starmen.net). The higher the enemy's Speed, the
less damage it receives. A few enemies are fast enough to avoid damage
altogether.
e)Counter-PSI Unit
Effect: renders a single target unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 60%)
Obtained: repair the Broken Machine (1 IQ required), which can be found
in a trash can inside Apple Kid's house
The Counter-PSI Unit doesn't work very often against bosses or powerful
PSI users. Give it to Escargo Express.
f)Defense Shower
Effect: increases the entire party's Defense
Defense Increase: 6% of current Defense the first three times
4~5% of current Defense the last fourth time
0% for the fifth time and after
Obtained: repair the Broken Trumpet (40 IQ required), which can be found
near the end of the Stonehenge Base in Winters
The Defense Shower may be helpful if you encounter an enemy you're
unprepared to fight, though I have never felt the need to use it. If you
ever do use this item, use it multiple times for a cumulative effect.
Give it to Escargo Express if you don't need it.
g)Heavy Bazooka
Damage: 140~400 HP
Peripheral Damage: 70~200 HP
Obtained: repair the Broken Bazooka (45 IQ required), which can be found
in a trash can in the Fourside Sewers (the Fifth Sanctuary
Location)
The Heavy Bazooka is very useful because it usually inflicts more damage
than Jeff's "shoot" and doesn't miss even if Jeff is crying. Unless you
take the time to level up Jeff, the Heavy Bazooka will likely be
stronger than Jeff's "shoot" until the end of the game.
h)HP-sucker
Effect: drains HP from a single target and gives it to Jeff
HP Drain: 10~20% of target's max HP
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 70~100%)
Obtained: trash can in Master Belch's Factory
The HP drain of the HP-sucker isn't significant, and it's usually better
to have Jeff "shoot" instead of use this item. You can sell it to earn
some money.
i)Hungry HP-sucker
Effect: drains HP from all enemies and gives it to Jeff
HP Drain: 10~20% of target's max HP
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 70~100%)
Obtained: repair the Broken Tube (36 IQ required), which can be found in
the Monkey Cave in Dusty Dunes Dessert
Use the Hungry HP-sucker rather than Lifeup for recovering Jeff when
facing multiple normal enemies. Use this in boss fights only when Jeff's
"shoot" doesn't inflict much damage, since the success rate of this item
against bosses is usually very low.
The HP drained by this item is added to the current amount displayed by
Jeff's HP counter even if it's rolling (source: starmen.net). Hence, you
should not press the A or L button when draining HP from multiple
enemies to recover as much as possible.
j)Multi Bottle Rocket
Effect: damages a single target (usually 1000~2000 HP)
Obtained: -merchant in southern Scaraba outside the Pyramid exit
-arms dealer in Deep Darkness
The Multi Bottle Rocket can make a few late game boss fights much
easier. Its only weakness is its ineffectiveness against enemies with
high Speed, though most bosses don't have this characteristic (the final
bosses of the game are notable exceptions).
Always keep 1 or 2 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 Dusty Dunes Desert
The Neutralizer resets any stat changes due to PSI moves, such as
Offense Up or Defense Down, or items, such as the Defense Spray. This
item also removes any shields protecting enemies and party members and
has a 100% success rate.
The most useful function of the Neutralizer is it's ability to remove
shields, since some powerful bosses and enemies are protected with
reflecting shields. The Shield Killer, another one of Jeff's tools, also
removes enemy shields, but it sometimes fails to work and affects only
one target at a time. I usually prefer the Neutralizer because of its
100% success rate, though the Shield Killer can be useful when you need
a shield yourself.
l)Shield Killer
Effect: removes any shield protecting a single target
Success Rate: ~80%
Obtained: repair the Broken Pipe (30 IQ required), which can be found in
Dr. Andonuts's Lab in Winters
As mentioned above, the Shield Killer's main drawback is it occasionally
fails to work, though I usually keep both the Shield Killer and the
Neutralizer. Use the Shield Killer against enemies that can attack with
Starstorm, Fire, or Flash, and use the Neutralizer against everything
else.
m)Slime Generator
Effect: solidifies a single random target in battle
Success Rate: depends on enemy (usually about 60~100%)
Obtained: fix the Broken Iron (10 IQ required), which can be found in a
gift box in Brick Road's maze in Winters and in a trash can in
the Fourside sewers; the Broken Iron can also be bought at
Burglin Park or from a dealer in northern Fourside
The success rate of the Slime Generator can be pretty high against some
strong enemies. Use this item in each round to pin down those enemies
and prevent them from attacking.
5.Inventory Management
Inventory management is one of the more annoying things about this game
because each character can carry a limited number of items. Here are some
steps that can make inventory management easier:
a)Use Escargo Express
If an unneeded item can't be sold or discarded, call Escargo Express and
have it stored. You can learn Escargo Express's phone number by calling
Ness's mom over any telephone outside of Ness's house. Required items
that are used only once, such as the Backstage Pass, and many of Jeff's
repaired items should be given to Escargo Express.
b)Don't horde your food
Food is common in the game and should be used when far from a place to
rest to conserve Ness and Poo's PP. Save good food items for recovery
during fights and use weak food items to recover after fights. Give your
best food to your fastest party member to improve your chances of saving
someone mortally wounded.
c)Get the "For Sale Sign"
Obtained: from the shaggy haired kid at Burglin Park in Twoson
This convenient item summons a customer to buy an item from you.
d)What each character should carry
Here are a few general suggestions on what kind of items to give to each
party member:
Ness: Have Ness carry most of the party's food while at low levels. Once
you start finding items that can revive someone unconscious or
cure status effects such as paralysis and diamondization, give
priority to those items and transfer your food to Paula or whoever
has the highest Speed.
Paula: Paula should carry all required items that Ness doesn't have to
carry, such as the Backstage Pass and the Jar of Fly Honey. Give
her most of your food after the middle part of the game.
Jeff: Give Jeff offensive items such as Bombs and Insecticides when at
low levels. Jeff's inventory will likely become full with gadgets
only he can use or repair after a while, but give him food and
medicine if he has space.
Poo: Give Poo offensive items, such as Super Bombs and the Monkey's
Love, and use them when his "bash" and PSI are not effective.
*******************************************************************************
IV.Set Up
*******************************************************************************
Set text speed to "fast" when starting your game to help you take maximum
advantage of the rolling HP counter. If you set text speed to a slower setting,
you can select "set up" when opening your file to change it.
Also, throughout the guide I refer to characters and your "favorite thing" as
the first suggestion offered by the "don't care" option on the naming screen.
These names are as follows:
Main Character: Ness
Girl: Paula
Friend: Jeff
Second Friend: Poo
Pet: King
Food: Steak
Thing: Rockin

1.The Beginning
Recommended Level: 1 -> 3
Equipment:
Ness: Cracked Bat
(nothing)
(nothing)
(nothing)
ITEMS
a)Cracked Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +4
Obtained: gift box in Tracy's room
Don't forget the Cracked Bat. Obtain and equip it before leaving Ness's
house.
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't be removed from Ness's inventory once obtained.
However, if Ness's inventory is full at the time Buzz Buzz tries to give
this item to Ness, it is sent to Ness's sister Tracy instead. This frees a
space in Ness's inventory for most of the game.
The best way to fill 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.

Attacks
-Biting attack

recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 12 or below
c)Spiteful Crow
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Flash, Paralysis
Attacks

Comments: Make sure Ness has enough HP to survive two hits from this
attack.
-Try to steal something
Effect: steals a random, nonessential item
-Has a big grin on his face
Effect: none
Strategy
About 3 or 4 hits from Ness and King's attacks should defeat the
Spiteful Crow. This enemy always drops a Cookie when defeated; eat the
Cookie after fights if Ness receives more than 6 HP of damage.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 18 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)The Impact Site
The game begins with the sound of a meteorite landing and Ness getting out
of bed. Leave Ness's room and enter the next door into Tracy's room. Open
the gift box to find the Cracked Bat, Ness's first weapon. 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 prefer walking around in his jammies. Leave
Ness's house.
Follow the path that initially leads southwest to go to the impact site.
Nothing special happens if you talk to the people on the way, though they
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 containing a Bread Roll.
Don't grab the Bread Roll just yet because there is a chance it will get
stolen by an enemy that appears 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; answer "yes" to her
suggestion.
b)Buzz Buzz
When Ness wakes up again, go downstairs and walk toward the door. Pokey
barges in on his own and explains his predicament. Answer "yes" to his
request; answering "no" just causes Pokey to ask again.
Talk to Ness's mother (who mysteriously seems to know Ness is about to go
on a long adventure) and have Ness change into his regular clothes.
Talk to Tracy and she will give Ness a Cookie. The Cookie recovers only 6
HP, but it can be useful for recovering after battles.
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 suddenly rings 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
about to go on a long adventure). Leave Ness's house.
The neighborhood is now infested with wild animals. Eat 1 or 2 Cookies
after fights if Ness sustains about 6 to 12 HP of damage; use Lifeup to
heal more serious damage. During battle, you should recover with Lifeup
when Ness's HP drops down to a point where he can't 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 main 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 near
the beginning of the game to help you survive battles without wasting PP
and food items.
Note: Later in the game, Ness receives an item called the Sound Stone,
which is required to stay in his inventory at all times. However, if
Ness's inventory is full at the time he is given this item, the
Sound Stone is sent to Ness's sister Tracy instead. If you want to
free up a space in Ness's inventory, fight the enemies around Ness's
house and collect the items they drop. The best enemy to fight is
the Spiteful Crow because it always drops a Cookie.
Don't talk to Tracy if the Sound Stone was sent to her; she gives
Ness the item if you do.
Upon reaching the impact site, King gets scared and runs back home. Talk
to Picky, the boy sleeping beside a tree.
As you try to walk back to Pokey's house, Buzz Buzz emerges from the
meteorite and tells his story. Answer "yes" when prompted to continue;
answering "no" causes 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 because 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 leave Ness's company.
Talk to Buzz Buzz and answer "yes" when prompted the first time and "no"
the second time to receive the Sound Stone; otherwise, Buzz Buzz repeats
his explanation.
Dawn will break when you leave Pokey's house.
EXTRAS
a)Lier X. Agerate
Purpose: none
You will no doubt notice Lier X. Agerate's house on your way to the impact
site. Talking to him during the night does nothing, 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
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 is gained by
examining the statue or talking to Lier, but this treasure plays an
important role in the storyline later in the game.

section below).
b)Mr. Baseball Cap
Use: armor for Ness; equip as "other;" Defense +6
Obtained: kid in tree house north of the Library
The Mr. Baseball Cap is the best "other" armor Ness can get until the next
town. To obtain this item, look for a shaggy haired kid north of the
Library. Enter the recess in the trees next to this kid and walk north 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: 5
Attacks
-Come out swinging
Damage: 7~9 HP
-Brandish a knife
Damage: 18~24 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 48.
-Say something nasty
Effect: lower Guts by 1 or 2 for the duration of the battle
Strategy
About four or five hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat Frank. Carry at
least one Hamburger before fighting him.
If Ness is at level 4 or 5, you'll probably have to recover in every
other round just in case Frank uses his knife attack twice in a row.
You'll need a bit of luck to win this fight if you don't spend some time
leveling up or stocking up on Hamburgers. Frank should be easy if Ness
is above level 6 or you have more than 3 Hamburgers.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP falls to 48 or
lower
b)Frankystein Mark II
Recommended Level: 5
Attacks
-Generate a burst of steam
Effect: none
Comments: Frankystein uses this move in the first round and every other
round thereafter.
-Throw a punch
Damage: 12~17 HP
-Tear into you
Damage: 25~34 HP
Comments: Be sure that Ness has enough HP to survive a hit from this
attack.
Strategy
About five or six hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Frankystein.
This battle should be easier than the first fight against Frank because
the Frankystein wastes every other turn to "generate a burst of steam."
Take advantage of these wasted turns by recovering with Lifeup or a
Hamburger when Ness may not survive a hit from the Frankystein's "tear
into you" attack.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP reaches 34 or
lower
c)Pogo Punk
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~3 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
7~9 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Charge forward
Damage: 8~12 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. Avoid fighting this
enemy without the Cheap Bracelet or below level 5.
The Pogo Punk often drops a Hamburger.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 25 or lower when
facing a group
d)Skate Punk
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
5~8 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Shred fiercely on a skateboard
Damage: 5~8 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
11~15 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Call for help
Effect: either a Yes Man Junior or a Pogo Punk might join the battle;
success rate is roughly 75%
Strategy
About two or three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Skate Punk.
Avoid fighting this enemy without the Cheap Bracelet or below level 5.
This is the only Shark that can call for help. If you're below level 5,
defeat this enemy first when it appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 25 or lower when
facing a group
e)Yes Man Junior
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~3 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
7~8 HP without the Cheap Bracelet
-Swing his hula hoop
Damage: 8~12 HP with the Cheap Bracelet
14~19 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. Defeat this enemy before any Pogo Punks but after any Skate
Punks. Avoid fighting this enemy without the Cheap Bracelet or below
level 5.
The Yes Man Junior sometimes drops a Bag of Fries when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] when HP reaches 25 or lower when
facing a group
WALKTHROUGH
a)Going to Town
Walk south and then west to the Library. Enter the Library and talk to the
librarian near the entrance to receive a Map, an item that lets you see
the layout of all major towns in the game. Press the X button to see a map
of the town you are in. If you decide you don't need the Map, give it to
Tracy or call Escargo Express. To learn Escargo Express's phone number,
simply call Ness's mom from a telephone (see EXTRAS section below).
To the north of the library is 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 receive
the Mr. Baseball Cap and equip it on Ness.
Follow the trail south to the main part of town and examine the trash can
next to the Burger Shop to find a Hamburger.
Go to the Drugstore and withdraw all of your money from the ATM. Sell any
Cookies you may have and buy the Tee Ball Bat and the Cheap Bracelet. If
you can't buy both items, give priority to the Cheap Bracelet and fight 2
or 3 Sharks around the Arcade in southern Onett to accumulate more money
(if you can't buy anything, battle the animals to the north). If you need
to recover, go back to Ness's house rather than staying at the Hotel to
save money.
The Sharks can be brutal if you aren't equipped with the Cheap Bracelet;
they aren't too bad otherwise. Always defeat the Skate Punk first when
facing a group to prevent him from calling for help. If you're trying to
level up or earn money, fight the couple of Sharks in the Arcade to get
them out of the way for later. In general, you should recover with Lifeup
when HP falls to 25 or lower. Save any Hamburgers you get for some
upcoming boss battles.
b)Frank
Frank, the leader of the Sharks, is behind the Arcade in southern Onett.
He can be difficult, and you'll need a bit of luck to defeat him if Ness
is at level 4 or 5. (I was at level 4 when writing this guide; I was able
to defeat Frank most of the time, but I lost once or twice when Frank was
aggressive with his knife attack and Ness's "bash" missed several times.
Victory is practically guaranteed if Ness is at least level 6 or you have
more than 3 Hamburgers.)
Carry at least one Hamburger before approaching Frank. Recover with any
Cookies, Cans of Fruit Juice, or Bread Rolls in your inventory before
talking to him.
The fight against Frank is divided into two battles: one against Frank and
another against Frankystein with no break in-between.
Recover if Ness's HP falls to about 48 or lower when fighting Frank. The
fight against Frank is the harder one, so don't worry if Ness has to
recover in every other round. Use up Ness's PP before resorting to food
items. About four or five hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat Frank.
The fight against Frankystein is a little easier because the Frankystein
wastes every other turn to "generate a burst of steam." Recover with
Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if Ness's HP falls to about 34 or lower.
Once you defeat the Frankystein, Frank changes his ways and becomes your
friend. After Frank is done talking, enter the Arcade, reenter the yard,
and talk to Frank again. He lets Ness rest and recover for free.
EXTRAS
a)Escargo Express
Purpose: learn Escargo Express's phone number
Escargo Express is a company that stores any unneeded items for you in a
separate storage space. They can be extremely useful because you'll often
find yourself with useless items that can't be thrown 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 for $18. You can also go to Ness's house and talk to his
sister to store or pick up items for free.
b)House for Sale
Purpose: -lose $7500
-read a humorous story
-get ambushed by the photographer
If you go to southern Onett and walk west past the Hospital, you'll find
a house being sold for $7500. Don't try to gain enough money to buy this
house because there is no point. $7500 becomes 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
photographer near the middle of the house.

ENEMIES
a)Attack Slug
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 1~3 HP
-Hypnosis[alpha]
Effect: might put a single target to sleep
Comments: Attack Slugs cannot use PSI for the first 4 rounds of battle.
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
One or two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Attack Slug. The
Attack Slug is pretty weak and tends to fight in groups. They are the
best enemies to fight if you want to level up.
Defeat the Attack Slug last if it appears with anything else. This enemy
sometimes drops a Bomb when defeated; save the Bomb for the Sanctuary
Boss.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha], as needed
b)Black Antoid
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Hypnosis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 10~14 HP
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-Call for help
Effect: a Black Antoid might join the battle
Strategy
Black Antoids are the strongest enemies that lurk in this cave, and they
can be dangerous if they appear in a group. When facing only one or two,
"bash" and recover with Lifeup[alpha] as necessary. When facing more,
use PSI Rockin[alpha] to likely defeat all Black Antoids in sight.
This enemy can summon a long chain of other Antoids to overwhelm you. If
Ness is lower than level 8 and hasn't learned PSI Rockin[alpha] yet, you
might want to spend some time leveling up on the lowest level of the
Sanctuary cave where Black Antoids don't appear.
About two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat this enemy. The Black
Antoid sometimes drops a Cookie. Eat Cookies between fights if Ness
isn't at max HP.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 28 or below
PSI Rockin[alpha], if facing a group
c)Rowdy Mouse
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 1 HP
10~15 HP if SMAAAASH!! hit
Comments: The Rowdy Mouse gets a SMAAAASH!! hit about 50% of the time.
Other times, it inflicts only about 1 HP of damage or misses.
Strategy
Two or three hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Rowdy Mouse. If
this enemy appears with a Black Antoid, defeat the Black Antoid first.
The Rowdy Mouse sometimes drops a Bread Roll when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 30 or below
d)Titanic Ant (Sanctuary Boss)
Recommended Level: 9
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 17~25 HP
-Biting attack
Damage: 25~45 HP
Comments: The Titanic Ant's two biting attacks have the same description
in the battle dialogue window.
-Shield[alpha]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50%
Comments: Damage from the Yo-yo sold at the Drugstore isn't reduced by
this shield. Without the Yo-yo, you have to hit the shield 3
times (or more if the Titanic Ant uses Shield[alpha] again) to
eliminate it.
-Defense Down[alpha]
Effect: reduces a single target's Defense by about 6%
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
Comments: This move can make preserving PP difficult in this fight. Use
PSI early before Ness's PP gets drained by PSI Magnet.
Strategy
Have at least 4 Hamburgers in preparation for this fight, and buy the
Yo-yo from the Onett Drugstore. The Yo-yo has a slightly lower accuracy
than the Tee Ball Bat and can't get SMAAAASH!! hits, but its damage is
not reduced by the Titanic Ant's shield (you can equip the Yo-yo during
this fight, but it costs you a turn). Level up Ness so that he has about
90 HP as well.
Use PSI Rockin[alpha] as much as possible, and recover with Lifeup or a
Hamburger when HP falls below 60.
-Ness: (first few rounds) PSI Rockin[alpha]
"bash/shoot"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] or a Hamburger if HP falls below 60
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
Recover at Frank's hideout or at Ness's house if needed and carry at least
3 Hamburgers. The Hamburgers are in preparation for the First Sanctuary
Boss battle and should be saved until then; go to the Burger Shop and buy
a few if you need to.
Buy a Yo-yo from the Drugstore as well, but don't equip it yet. The damage
inflicted by the Yo-yo is not reduced by shields, and the upcoming boss
sometimes uses Shield[alpha] often. Keep the Tee Ball Bat equipped until
then because the Yo-yo has a slightly lower accuracy and cannot get
SMAAAASH!! hits.
b)The Shack
After defeating Frankystein, head to City Hall located roughly in the
center of Onett. Go upstairs to the mayor's office and talk to Mayor
Pirkle. Be his yes-man to receive the Key to the Shack.
Exit City Hall, head north to the Library, and turn left at the fork in
the path. When you reach the shack, approach 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 protects its wearer from Paralysis. No enemies around the first
couple towns can use Paralysis, so sell the Travel Charm for $30.
c)Sanctuary Cave Enemies
The Attack Slugs are too weak to pose a threat, but they tend to attack in
groups and are the best enemies to fight if you want to level up. One or
two hits from a standard attack should defeat them.
The Rowdy Mouse is a little more powerful, but it can also be defeated
with just standard attacks. They get a SMAAAASH!! hit about 50% of the
time but inflict only 1 HP of damage otherwise. 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, "bash" and recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to
about 28 or below. When facing a group, use PSI Rockin[alpha] (learned at
level 8) to likely defeat all Black Antoids in sight.
The Black Antoid can summon a long chain of other Antoids and overwhelm
you. To prepare for this risk, you may want to spend some time leveling up
if Ness has not learned PSI Rockin[alpha]. Stay on the lowest level of the
Sanctuary Cave where Black Antoids don't appear.
If you run low on PP, you can find a Magic Butterfly outside the third
level of the cave.
d)Getting Through the Cave
The first few cave openings you see lead to small rooms with gift boxes.
The first room holds a Skip Sandwich, the second has nothing, and the
third holds a Cold Remedy. Obtain the Cold Remedy in preparation for the
next town (get it after defeating the boss to avoid fighting enemies).
Your first goal is to reach the Magic Butterfly area. The exit on the
third level of the cave leads to a small terrace outside. A Magic
Butterfly often spawns here, so exit and reenter this place if you do not
see one. You can return to recover with Lifeup as needed and use the
Butterfly to restore PP.
There is a gift box containing a Hamburger in the room following the Magic
Butterfly area. Save it for the upcoming boss.
e)Sanctuary Boss
Level up Ness until he has about 90 HP. You should be able to survive this
fight with at least 4 Hamburgers. Before the fight, equip the Yo-yo and
use weak food items to recover HP.
Use PSI Rockin[alpha] until Ness's PP is depleted. The Sanctuary Boss can
surprise you with a powerful biting attack that can inflict over 40 HP of
damage, so recover when Ness's HP falls below 60 just in case.

when Ness receives moderate damage.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup or a Hamburger if HP reaches about 75 or
lower
b)Cop
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 11~15 HP

Damage: 26~29 HP
Strategy
Carry at least 4 Hamburgers before fighting the Onett Police force.

HP falls below 45.
This enemy sometimes drops a Hamburger when defeated.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with a Hamburger if HP reaches 55 or lower
recover with Lifeup if HP falls to 45 or lower
c)Ramblin' Evil Mushroom
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 you reach Twoson Hospital. Talk to the blue-haired
Healer inside to cure Ness.
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 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
You might want to be at level 10 or 11 before leaving the First Sanctuary
Cave. Stay near Giant Step or the Magic Butterfly area and fight the
enemies in the cave if you want to level up.
A police officer approaches Ness when you exit the First Sanctuary Cave.
Whether you answer "yes" or "no" makes no difference. Before going to the
police station, buy some Hamburgers if Ness has less than 4.
b)The Onett Police Force
Enter the police station in southern Onett and talk to Captain Strong, the
one with the mustache. He leads Ness to a room in the back of the
building.
Four regular Cops will battle Ness one at a time, with the fifth one
chickening out. Attack with Ness's "bash" and recover with a Hamburger if
HP falls below 55 or Lifeup if HP falls below 45.
After the regular Cops are defeated, Strong himself battles Ness. Recover
with Lifeup or a Hamburger if Ness's HP reaches about 75 or lower. You may
have to spend every other round recovering if Strong is aggressive with
his attacks.
c)Road to Twoson
When Strong is defeated, he calls his men to open the road to Twoson.
Recover by talking to Frank and head south.
There is a house on the way that belongs to some Exit Mice. Exit Mice are
treated as items and can be "used" while in a cave to instantly travel to
the entrance. They aren't necessary right now and can be found in more
convenient places later.
You may find some Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms further down the road. Try to
avoid them as much as possible because they can mushroomize/mashroomize
Ness. Mushroomization causes Ness to be confused in battle and alters his
movement controls outside of battle. If affected, go to the Hospital in
northeast Twoson and talk to the blue-haired Healer inside.

[alpha] (learned at level 12) to protect Ness from Everdred's standard
attack (Shield does not affect Everdred's biting attack).

-Ness: "bash"

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
If Ness has been mushroomized, go to the Hospital in northeast Twoson and
talk to the blue haired healer.
NOTE: Inside the Hotel is a man wearing glasses and a suit. Talk to him 17
times to receive $50.
Withdraw money from an ATM so you have about $500. If you don't have that
much money, go to Burglin Park south of the Hotel (avoid the creepy guy on
his roof for now) and buy some Fresh Eggs from the blonde dude. Wait about
1 min. 30 sec. for the Fresh Eggs to hatch into Chickens, then sell the
Chickens for a $98 profit.
Talk to the guy with braids in Burglin Park to buy a Copper Bracelet, and
sell the Cheap Bracelet.
The shaggy haired kid to the guy's right can sell you a For Sale Sign, an
item that summons a customer when you're outside. I find the item useful,
since you'll often find yourself with unneeded items. The Sign costs $98,
though, so don't buy it unless you have some extra cash.
b)Everdred
Everdred lives in Burglin Park. If you come close enough to his house,
he jumps off his roof and attacks. You're not required to fight him, but
he plays an important role in the storyline a couple of times later on.
If you fight Everdred, use Shield[alpha] (if learned) in the first round
to defend against Everdred's standard attack, and "bash" thereafter. PSI
Rockin can help, though I think it's safer to save Ness's PP for Lifeup.
Recover if Ness's HP falls below 55~60.
c)Apple Kid and the Pencil Statue
If Ness doesn't have a Cookie or a Can of Fruit Juice, buy a Ketchup
Packet from the hippie in Burglin Park.
You also need at least $200 with you. If you don't have the money, buy
some Fresh Eggs and sell Chickens as mentioned above.
Head south and enter Apple Kid's house. There is a trash can in here
containing a Broken Machine, an item that Jeff, a future party member, can
repair into the Counter-PSI Unit. The Counter-PSI Unit is not a very
helpful item, so you can leave the Broken Machine behind.
Talk to Apple Kid and give him the cheapest food item you have (the
aforementioned Ketchup Packet is good enough).
Next, he asks for $200. You have no choice but to give it to him.
Once you pay Apple Kid, the little mouse moves in front of the door. Talk
to him and he will give Ness the Receiver Phone, an item required to be in
Ness's 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 25 PP and a few food items,
he should be able to survive. There is a girl in Peaceful Rest Valley who
can cure mushroomization for you.
Always defeat Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms first and avoid them as much as
possible. Mobile Sprouts are also dangerous because they can drain Ness's
PP with PSI Magnet and sprout more Mobile Sprouts. If you encounter 2 or
more of these enemies and have some food items, consider using PSI Rockin
[alpha]. The attack isn't guaranteed to defeat anything in 1 hit, but it
might help you avoid getting mushroomized or having too much of Ness's PP
drained.
The Li'l UFO isn't very dangerous, but they can give Ness a cold. If Ness
catches a cold, use Healing[alpha] after fights (save any Cold Remedies
you have for later).
Keep heading forward into Peaceful Rest Valley until you reach a pencil
statue. "Check" the statue and return to Twoson.
Apple Kid calls Ness on his Receiver Phone when you reach Twoson. For some
reason, Apple Kid is waiting for Ness at Burglin Park instead of his home.
Talk to Apple Kid to receive the Pencil Eraser.
Go to the Hotel and rest.
EXTRAS
a)Mach Pizza's Phone Number
Purpose: learn Mach Pizza's phone number to order delivery Pizza
There is a Pizza Shop in southern Twoson next to Polestar Preschool. Enter
the shop and talk to the clerk to learn Mach Pizza's phone number.
You can now call Mach Pizza and have a small or large Pizza delivered to
the party (medium Pizzas are always sold out). Small Pizzas recover about
120 HP for one person, and Large Pizzas recover about 240 HP for the
entire party. Delivery takes about 3 minutes.
b)Orange Kid
Purpose: -lose $200 or $50
-receive the Suporma, which is useless
Orange Kid helps Ness in no way whatsoever and is much more incompetent
than the Apple Kid. If you invest $200 in his work, he gives Ness the
Suporma, a useless device that breaks after one use and sells for only
$25.
If you talk to him after rescuing Paula, Orange Kid asks for only a $50
investment. Doing it this way is no different from paying him before
rescuing Paula except you lose less money.

ENEMIES
a)Li'l UFO
Vulnerable: Fire, Brainshock
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 10~14 HP
-Shoot a beam that causes night-time stuffiness
Effect: gives a single target a cold
Comments: The success rate of this attack is nearly 100%. Use Healing
[alpha] or a Cold Remedy after fights if Ness catches a cold.
Using Healing during battle costs a turn, and the Li'l UFO
might give Ness a cold again.
Strategy
About 2 hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Li'l UFO. Defeat the
Li'l UFO before only Territorial Oaks.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 28 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP reaches 36 or lower and Ness has
a cold
b)Mobile Sprout
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 8~11 HP
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
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.
-Sow some seeds around itself
Effect: another Mobile Sprout might join the battle
Comments: The success rate of this move is rather high and is another
reason why you should defeat this enemy first when it appears
in a group.
Strategy
About 2 hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mobile Sprout. Use PSI
Rockin[alpha] if you face 3 or more Mobile Sprouts. PSI Rockin is not
guaranteed to defeat this enemy in 1 hit, so you'll have to weigh this
risk against getting Ness's PP drained with PSI Magnet.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[alpha], if facing 3+ Mobile Sprouts and no Teddy Bear
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 22 or lower
c)Ramblin' Evil Mushroom
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
to Peaceful Rest Valley to remove the mushroom.
Strategy
About 1 or 2 hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Ramblin' Evil
Mushroom. Defeat this enemy after any Mobile Sprouts it may appear with;
the Mobile Sprouts have higher Offense and can drain Ness's PP, while
mushroomization can be cured when you reach Peaceful Rest Valley.
-Ness: "bash"
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 14 or lower
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 50 or lower and Ness is
mushroomized (Ness can inflict about 40 HP of damage to
himself)
d)Spinning Robo
Vulnerable: Freeze
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 15~20 HP
-Shield[alpha]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50%
-Shoot a beam that causes night-time stuffiness
Effect: gives a single target a cold
Comments: The success rate of this attack is nearly 100%. Use Healing
[alpha] or a Cold Remedy after fights if Ness catches a cold.
Using Healing during battle costs a turn, and the Spinning
Robo might give Ness a cold again.
Strategy
About 3 hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Spinning Robo. Defeat
this enemy before any Li'l UFOs it may appear with.
-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]
Effect: might make a single target feel strange
Comments: There is no practical way to heal feeling strange at this
point in the game. Just keep Ness's HP higher than usual if he
feels strange.
-Vacuum attack
Effect: decreases Ness's Offense by 1~2 and Defense by 1~2
-Burst into flames (death action)
Damage: 240~330 HP
Comments: Defeat this enemy last in any fight and tap the A or L button
as fast as you can to end the battle. If you are fast enough
(and if text speed is set to "fast"), Ness should suffer only
about 30 HP of damage.
Strategy
About 4 or 5 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 outside of battle. Try to avoid this enemy if Ness is
low on PP.
-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 to find a
Teddy Bear, an item that sometimes diverts attacks away from Ness. If
you've already used the Teddy Bear in Paula's room, you can buy another
one for $178 at the Department Store. Also, buy a Copper Bracelet in
Burglin Park if you don't already have one.
If Ness is mushroomized on the way to Peaceful Rest Valley, talk to the
girl near the entrance to the Valley to remove the mushroom.
b)Making It Through the Valley
The main challenge in Peaceful Rest Valley is preserving Ness's PP. The
biggest threat is the Mobile Sprout's PSI Magnet, so defeat any Sprouts
first when they appear in a group. If you face 3 or even 2 Mobile Sprouts,
consider using PSI Rockin; the attack isn't guarenteed to defeat any
Sprouts in one hit, but it can help prevent Ness's PP from being drained
or more Mobile Sprouts from joining a battle.
If you have any food items, use those to recover moderate damage after
fights. Use any Cold Remedies you have to cure colds after fights before
using Healing. Always be on the lookout for Magic Butterflies and use
Lifeup before touching them.
After removing the pencil statue with the Pencil Eraser, cross the bridge
and follow the river until Ness is on elevated land. To the north is a
gift box containing a Travel Charm and to the south is a gift box with a
Luck Capsule. The Travel Charm is mostly useless and can be sold for $30.
The Luck Capsule should either be used on Ness or on Paula when she joins
him.
You will likely start encountering Territorial Oaks, which look like
moving trees on the field. Always defeat them last in battle because they
burst into flames when defeated and inflict over 250 HP of damage to Ness.
If you set text speed to "fast," Ness should receive only about 30 HP of
damage from the flames. Territorial Oaks move slower than Ness and can be
avoided.
Walk west from the central elevated area and then south along the river to
find a gift box containing a Croissant.
Next, walk east between the two cliffs. There is a gift box holding a Bomb
to the south, but this item isn't very useful. Continue east and head
north after crossing the bridge.
If you are in relatively good condition, walk north along the river and
then turn west for a Hard Hat. Equip this on Ness and sell your previous
"other" armor. The Hard Hat should make the enemies here much easier. Go
back east along the river and turn south onto the elevated ridge.
Walk to the southern tip of the ridge and open the gift box to find a Cup
of Lifenoodles, an item that can revive someone unconscious and cure
almost any status effect.
Enter the cave to the east to exit the Valley. Only Coil Snakes are found
in this cave.

Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-PSI Shield[alpha]

"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 Spiteful Crows and the ones you faced in Onett.
Defeat them first to avoid getting your items stolen.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
If you are low on HP/PP, go to the southwest part of town and enter the
house with the cow in the yard. Talk to the man inside to rest for $50.
Nest, go to the Drugstore in the northeast part of town and buy the Sand
Lot Bat for $98.
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 electrical attacks from its
carrier.
After exiting the cabin, a couple of Insane Cultists and a Spiteful Crow
fights Ness. Just use standard "bash" attacks to defeat them. Defeat the
Spiteful Crow first to prevent your items from getting stolen.
Enter the large building in the center of Happy Happy Village. Inside are
a bunch of cultists blocking Ness's path. The cultists moving faster than
the others can be talked to and either move out of the way or attack. (The
cultists with an empty space next to them move out of the way.) The two
gift boxes in the room contain a Croissant and a Skip Sandwich. 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 reflected and the battle will start.
Without the Franklin Badge, Ness will be sent outside by the lightning.
Mr. Carpainter is one of the easiest bosses in the game. Just keep Ness's
HP above 60 and use standard attacks while Mr. Carpainter hurts himself
with lightning.
After Mr. Carpainter is defeated, he gives Ness the Key to the Cabin.
Return to the cabin, go up to the jail cell door, and "use" the Key to
free Paula.
EXTRAS
a)Self-Service Food Stand
Purpose: -buy a Banana or a Fresh Egg at your own price
-fight an Unassuming Local Guy
South of the Drugstore is a food stand that lets you name your own price
for Bananas or Fresh Eggs. A good way to make money is to "buy" Fresh Eggs
for $0, wait until they turn into Chickens, then 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 attacks Ness if you talk to him. The man is an Unassuming
Local Guy, an easy enemy.
The food stand closes once Mr. Carpainter is defeated.

ENEMIES
a)Mighty Bear
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 18~25 HP (Ness)
18~25 HP (Paula)
-Claw with his sharp nails
Damage: 45~63 HP (Ness)
45~63 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] in the first round to defeat it in 1 hit. Keep Paula's HP at max
when fighting this enemy.
The Mighty Bear moves slower than Ness and Paula on the field and can be
avoided.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 65 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls below max
-Paula: (first turn) Freeze[alpha]
(first turn) Freeze[beta], if facing a group
(subsequent turns) "defend"
b)Mole Playing Rough
Vulnerable: Flash, Paralysis
Attacks
-Scratch with its claws
Damage: 6~10 HP (Ness)
6~14 HP (Paula)
-Claw with his sharp nails
Damage: 18~34 HP (Ness)
18~35 HP (Paula)
Comment: This attack is used rarely, but it can be a devastating
surprise if you are not ready for it. Have Paula "defend" if
she is at a low level to prevent her from getting mortally
wounded.
-Size up the situation
Effect: makes itself feel strange
-Be absentminded
Effect: none
Strategy
If Paula is at a low level, have her "defend" and use Lifeup[alpha] on
her if her HP falls below maximum.
Two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mole Playing Rough.
This enemy sometimes appears with Mr. Batties. Defeat the Mr. Batties
first before attacking this enemy. Use PSI Rockin[alpha] if Paula is at
a low level and you're facing a large group.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[alpha], if facing a large group
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if someone's HP falls to 35 or lower
-Paula: "defend" if at a low level
"bash"
c)Mondo Mole (Sanctuary Boss)
Recommended Level: 17 (Ness)
11 (Paula)
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Resistant: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 33~50 HP (Ness)
33~50 HP (Paula)
-Tear into you
Damage: 57~95 HP (Ness)
57~95 HP (Paula)
-Claw with his sharp nails
Damage: 35~90 HP (Ness)
35~90 HP (Paula)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-PSI Shield[alpha]
Effect: nullifies all damage from offensive PSI moves
-Offense Up[alpha]
Effect: increases Offense by 6%
Strategy
Use Paralysis as soon as you can to immobilize the Mondo Mole. Use PSI
Rockin[alpha] and Thunder[alpha] thereafter or just select "Auto Fight."
Thunder[alpha] has only a 25% chance of striking, but it's more cost-
effective than Fire[alpha], and it can eliminate PSI Shields in one hit.
-Ness: (first turn) Paralysis[alpha]
PSI Rockin[alpha]
"Auto Fight"
-Paula: (first turn) "defend"
Thunder[alpha]
d)Mr. Batty
Vulnerable: Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard Attack
Damage: 12~18 HP (Ness)
12~20 HP (Paula)
-Become friendly and affectionate
Effect: solidify a single target
-Size up the situation
Effect: makes itself feel strange
Strategy
If you're 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. Use PSI
Rockin[alpha] if facing a large group to keep Paula safe.
About 1 hit from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mr. Batty.
If the Mr. Batty appears with the Mole Playing Rough, defeat the Mr.
Batty first.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rocking[alpha] when facing a large group
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
-Paula: "defend" if she is at a low level
"bash"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Second Sanctuary Cave
Note: The Second Sanctuary Melody does not have to be learned right now.
If you wish, you can return Paula to Twoson and learn the Second
Melody later.
Go to the Drugstore and withdraw about $500 to buy a Fry Pan, a Copper
Bracelet, and a Ribbon for Paula. Give the Franklin Badge to her as well.
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
20 or lower.
South of the entrance to the cave is a gift box containing a Great Charm.
Give it to Paula and equip it on her "body." If you encounter a group of
Mr. Batties, have Paula "defend" and keep her HP above 25. Use PSI Rockin
if you get overwhelmed.
Start making your way to the Shining Spot when Paula learns Freeze[beta]
at level 11.
You will find Mighty Bears lurking further inside the cave. Mighty Bears
are powerful, but they have low Speed and can be defeated before they get
a chance to attack. When facing only one, have Paula use Freeze[alpha] and
Ness "bash." When they are in a group, use Freeze[beta] in the first round
to defeat it in 1 hit. Keep Paula's HP at max and Ness's HP above 65 when
fighting this enemy.
Magic Butterflies often spawn near the center of the cave next to two
pools of water. If you don't find any, walk a little ways off and come
back until there is one.
The Sanctuary Boss is the Mondo Mole, the easiest boss in the game. Be at
max HP before starting the fight, and use Paralysis[alpha] in the first
round to immobilize the Mondo Mole. Use PSI Rockin and Thunder[alpha]
thereafter. Thunder[alpha] has only a 25% chance of striking, but it's
more cost-effective than Fire[alpha] (Freeze is useless against the Mondo
Mole).

ITEMS
a)Hand-Aid
Use: recovers max HP
Obtained: Paula's mother
WALKTHROUGH
a)Getting to Threed
Walk back to Twoson. Going through Peaceful Rest Valley should now be much
easier. When facing a group, use Freeze[alpha] against Mobile Sprouts,
Ramblin' Evil Mushrooms, and Spinning Robos and Fire[alpha] against
Territorial Oaks.
In Twoson, go to Polestar Preschool and talk to Paula's mother. She gives
Ness the Hand-Aid, an item that recovers max HP.
Outside, a man approaches Ness and Paula and asks them to meet Everdred.
Go to Burglin Park and talk to Everdred to receive the Wad of Bills.
Head to Chaos Theater and talk to the Runaway Five band member standing to
the right of the Theater. He gives Ness and Paula the Backstage Pass.
Enter the theater, approach the woman blocking your path, and "use" the
Backstage Pass to gain admission.
Inside the music hall, walk to the left side of the room and talk to the
girl in the pink dress. She takes Ness and Paula into the Runaway Five's
dressing room.
Exit the dressing room and watch the show.
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. Once in Threed, you
won't be able to return to Onett or Twoson for some time.

of damage or solidify a single person. Possession can be cured by
talking to the blue haired healer at any Hospital and selecting the
"purify" option.

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 (call Ness's mom
to learn their phone number). This item no longer has any use.
b)Not much to do here yet...
Go to the graveyard in northwest Threed. Walk to the northwest corner of
the graveyard and enter the small opening in the forest. Approach the two
zombies standing in front of a ladder leading underground. You can't fight
these zombies and there is no way to get them out of the way right now,
but you need to approach them to progress.
After approaching the zombies, go to the Hotel in central Threed. You
should see a strange woman wearing sunglasses in front of the Hotel.
Follow her inside and go into the room she enters. (You can catch up to
her with a Skip Sandwich, but she doesn't say anything.)
EXTRAS
a)Insignificant Item
Purpose: receive a Magic Truffle, a food item that recovers about 80 PP
(160 PP with a Ketchup Packet)
Note: This sidequest can be completed only after all monsters are gone
from Threed.
If you're the type of player that talks to everyone in an RPG, you may
have met a man in the hospital in Twoson talking about an item he left in
the hospital in Threed. To find this item, go to the second floor of
Threed Hospital and enter the room on the left. Approach the drawer and
"check" it to get the Insignificant Item. This item does nothing and sells
for only $1.
After the monsters are gone from Threed, go to the second floor of Twoson
Hospital and enter the room on the left. Approach the man inside and "use"
the Insignificant Item to receive a Magic Truffle.

Attacks
-Ram and trample you
Damage: 4 HP
-Tear into you
Damage: 12~13 HP
Comments: Recover HP with a food item if Jeff's HP falls to 13 or lower.
Be sure that Jeff has at least 26 HP before engaging this
enemy.
Strategy
About 3 hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Gruff Goat. Use a
Boiled Egg or Bread Roll to recover during battle if needed. Use Cookies
to recover after fights.
There is a tent a little south of the Drugstore where Jeff can rest for
free. Jeff should be able to reach it before being defeated by this
enemy.
-Jeff: "shoot"
recover with a Bread Roll or Boiled Egg if HP falls to 13 or
lower
b)Runaway Dog
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Flash, Paralysis, Hypnosis
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 1 HP
-Make a loud, piercing howl
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Runaway Dog.
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Spiteful Crow
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Flash, Paralysis
Attacks
-Peck at your eyes
Damage: 1 HP
-Try to steal something
Effect: steals a random, nonessential item
-Has a big grin on his face
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Spiteful Crow.
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)The Boarding House
When you gain control of Jeff, attempt to walk out of his room. Tony,
Jeff's roommate, wakes up and joins you.
Before doing anything else, open Jeff's inventory and discard the Ruler
and Protractor; these items do nothing and sell for only $1 each.
Enter the room to the left of Jeff and Tony's room and open the presents
to grab a bunch of Cookies. Cookies recover only 6 HP, but they can be
useful for recovering after fights.
Walk downstairs and enter the door on the left. Talk to Maxwell to receive
the Key to the Locker.
Exit Maxwell's room and enter the room on the right. Approach one of the
lockers and "use" the Key to the Locker. Although the Key doesn't work,
you're required to use it. Return to Maxwell.
Maxwell exchanges the Key to the Locker for the Bad Key Machine. Return to
the lockers and "use" the Bad Key Machine to open them and take the items
inside:
Back Row:
Rightmost Locker -- Pop Gun (weapon; Offense +16)
Leftmost Locker -- Broken Air Gun (repaired into Magnum Air
Gun; 12 IQ needed)
Front Row:
Leftmost Locker -- Holmes Hat (armor; Defense +10)
b)Going Through Winters
Once outside the Boarding House, walk east and enter the Drugstore. The
items being sold at the Drugstore are too expensive for you right now.
Some people have earned enough money to buy the T-Rex's Bat (Offense +48)
by selling items enemies drop, but this will take a while.
Inside the Drugstore, talk to the woman on the left and answer "yes" when
prompted to buy the Pak of Bubble Gum.
Next, talk to the monkey to have him join Jeff. The Bubble Monkey follows
Jeff around for a while and participates a little in battle. His Offense
is low and he often wastes his turns, but you need him to make it through
Winters.
Exit the Drugstore and begin walking south. The enemies found here 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 Gruff Goats and recover with as many Cookies as you
need after battles; save your more effective food items for recovery
during battle. There is a tent a little south of the Drugstore where Jeff
can rest for free. Jeff should be able to survive until he reaches the
tent.
Keep walking south until you reach a campsite next to Lake Tess. Enter the
westernmost tent, 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.

3.Winters (South)
Recommended Level: 3 -> 9 (Jeff)
Equipment:
Jeff: Pop Gun
(nothing)
(nothing)
Holmes Hat
ITEMS
a)Broken Iron
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Slime Generator
Obtained: gift box in Brick Road
IQ Required: 10
The Slime Generator can solidify a random target for 1 turn. It can be
used an infinite number of times. It's usefulness is limited, but it can
prevent some enemies from doing anything if repeatedly used.
b)Broken Pipe
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Shield Killer
Obtained: gift box on the second floor of Dr. Andonuts's Lab
IQ Required: 30
The Shield Killer can remove any type of shield from a single target. It
can periodically fail to work.
An alternative to the Shield Killer is the Neutralizer, another one of
Jeff's tools that can be found later in the game. The Neutralizer always
works but removes everyone's shield, including those protecting the party.
I usually carry both because the Shield Killer can be useful against some
powerful PSI users.
Jeff likely won't be able to repair the Broken Pipe for a while, but
you'll be able to get this item later in the game at a more convenient
time.

Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 3 HP
-Hypnosis[alpha]
Effect: might put a single target to sleep
Comments: Attack Slugs cannot use PSI for the first 4 rounds of battle.
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
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.
Strategy
About 9 hits from Jeff's "shoot" or 6 hits from Jeff's "shoot" plus a
Bottle Rocket should defeat the Cave Boy.
Try to avoid fighting the Cave Boy. The Cave Boy moves slower than Jeff
outside of battle and should be easy to walk past. If you end up
fighting one, you should be able to win with standard attacks and
possibly a Bottle Rocket if you have a Hamburger or Croissant. If you
don't have either food item, try to run away or use a Big Bottle
Rocket.
-Jeff: "shoot," if you have both a Hamburger and a Croissant
Bottle Rocket
"run away," if you have no food items
Big Bottle Rocket, if you have no food items
recover with a Hamburger or Croissant if HP falls to 40 or lower
c)Mad Duck
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze
Attacks
-Peck at your eyes
Damage: 8~9 HP
-Make something spin around
Effect: lose 4~11 PP
-Disrupt your senses
Effect: renders a target unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
-Fall down
Effect: none
Strategy
About 3 hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Mad Duck.
-Jeff: "shoot"
d)Rowdy Mouse
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 10~15 HP if SMAAAASH!! hit
Comments: The Rowdy Mouse gets a SMAAAASH!! hit about 50% of the
time. Other times, it inflicts only about 1 HP of damage or
misses.
Strategy
About 2 hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Rowdy Mouse. Have at
least 26 HP before engaging this enemy. Once you get the Stun Gun, only
1 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"
e)Struttin' Evil Mushroom
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 14~17 HP
-Be absentminded
Effect: none
Strategy
About 2 hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Struttin' Evil
Mushroom. Defeat this enemy first if it appears in a group.
Unlike other mushroom enemies, this one cannot cause mushroomization.
-Jeff: "shoot"
recover with a food item if HP falls to 34 or lower
f)Worthless Protoplasm
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 7~8 HP
-Call for help
Effect: a Worthless Protoplasm might join the battle
-Size up the situation
Effect: makes itself feel strange
Strategy
About 2 hits from Jeff's "shoot" should defeat the Worthless
Protoplasm.
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Brick Road
After crossing the lake on Tessie, walk south and enter 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 found here and you should try to get
them all.
When you first enter the maze, there are three routes available to you.
The top route leads to a Rowdy Mouse and a gift box containing a Bread
Roll. The middle route leads to a Mad Duck and an Insecticide Spray. The
Insecticide Spray is useful against Red Antoids, an enemy you'll encounter
a little later.
Take the bottom route to move on to the next fork. The path to the right
leads to a Broken Iron, an item Jeff can fix into the Slime Generator. The
Slime Generator can solidify a single random target and be used an
unlimited number of times. Its usefulness is limited, but it should be
kept.
Take the left path to proceed. From here, the maze is pretty
straightforward. There are two other gift boxes containing a Croissant and
a Stun Gun. Grab 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 Brick Road at any time to rest.
b)Fourth Sanctuary Cave
Enter the next cave to the south. This is the Fourth Sanctuary Cave, a
place Jeff will have to return to later with Ness. The enemies here are
not too difficult, but you might want to level up a bit if you're low on
food. Fight the enemies near the entrance and return to Brick Road to
recover.
The first two sections of the cave are straightforward. When you enter the
third section of the cave, climb up the first rope to find a Cheap
Bracelet.
To the left of the first rope is an unreachable coiled up rope and a gift
box. Open the gift box to obtain a Bottle Rocket, an item you should save
for later. "Use" the Pak of Bubble Gum to have the Bubble Monkey float up
to the rope and drop it down.
Climb this rope and another to reach the Shining Spot. You can talk to the
Shining Spot, but Jeff isn't allowed to fight the boss. Walk to the left
and exit the cave.
Outside, the Bubble Monkey notices a female monkey and walks away with
her, leaving Jeff's company.
And now for a word of warning...
WARNING: The Cave Boys that lurk here are 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 walk past. If you end
up fighting one, use the Bottle Rocket to inflict extra damage
and finish him off with standard attacks. If you don't have at
least a Croissant or Hamburger, try to "run away" or 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 furnace.
This is the "Instant Revitalizing Device," a machine that fully recovers
everyone.
There is a gift box upstairs containing a Broken Pipe, which Jeff can
repair into the Shield Killer (30 IQ needed). The Shield Killer can remove
a 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
keep both and use the Shield Killer against powerful PSI users. Jeff
likely won't be able to repair the Broken Pipe for a while, but you'll be
able to get this item later in the game at a more convenient time.
Talk to Dr. Andonuts. It does not matter whether you answer "yes" or "no"
to his questions.
Walk over to the Sky Runner to the left and approach it from the front.
Jeff automatically gets in.
After the scene, approach the cell door and "use" the Bad Key Machine to
unlock it.
The Bad Key Machine and the Pak of Bubble Gum are no longer used; call
Escargo Express and store them.

split up Ness's attack and Paula and Jeff's attacks to defeat multiple
targets in one round.

-Vent a terrible odor
Effect: reduce a single target's Offense by about 6%
-Has a big grin on its face
Effect: none
Strategy
Use Paralysis[alpha] to incapacitate this enemy. The Smelly Ghost has
pretty high Defense, and only Ness's "bash" and Freeze are likely to
inflict much damage.
If the Smelly Ghost appears in a group, use Paralysis[alpha] on it and
take care of the other enemies first. Use PSI Magnet while this enemy is
paralyzed to recover some of Paula's PP.

Damage: 31~46 HP (Ness)
31~46 HP (Paula)
37~50 HP (Jeff)
Effect: poisons target
Comments: This attack inflicts the same amount of damage as the Zombie
Dog's standard biting attack. The chance of poisoning its
target is close to 100%.
-Make a loud, piercing howl
Effect: none
Strategy
If the Zombie Dog appears alone, you should be able to defeat it within
2 rounds with just standard attacks. A hit from Freeze[alpha] and a hit
from Ness or Jeff's standard attack should also defeat this enemy.
If the Zombie Dog appears in a group, use Freeze[beta] in the first
round to defeat it in 1 hit. Heal any poisoned party members after the
battle is over with Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb, which can be
bought at the Drugstore.

defeat the Zombie Possessor. One hit from Freeze[beta] also defeats this
enemy.
This is one of the few enemies in the game that can possess someone with
a Tiny Li'l Ghost, an enemy that can attack to inflict 1 HP of damage or
solidify a single person. Possession can be cured by talking to the blue
haired healer at any 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
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 52 or below

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
After leaving 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, and call Escargo Express to store the Bad Key Machine and the
Pak of Bubble Gum.
Next, go to the arms dealer behind the Pizza Shop and buy 1 or 2 Bottle
Rockets so that Jeff has at least two of these. Buy the Toy Air Gun only
if Jeff doesn't have the Magnum Air Gun or if you don't want to wait until
he repairs the Broken Air Gun (12 IQ required).
b)The Boogey Tent
Walk south of the Pizza Shop and approach the large, purple tent from the
front. A monster's face will appear on the tent and attack.
Use PSI Rockin[alpha], Fire[alpha], and Bottle Rockets to defeat the
Boogey Tent. Recover with Lifeup if someone's HP falls below 100 or max,
whichever is lower.
The Boogey Tent disappears when defeated. Open the trash can to find the
Jar of Fly Honey, an item you'll need in a later boss fight.
c)The Zombie Paper
After defeating the Boogey Tent, walk north past the circus tent. The
Apple Kid calls Ness when he reaches the road in front of the Hotel. About
5 seconds after the call, a Mach Pizza deliveryman approaches Ness and
gives him the Zombie Paper.
Enter the tent in central Threed and "use" the Zombie Paper. Go to the
Hotel and rest.

26~34 HP (Paula)
29~42 HP (Jeff)
-Make something spin around
Damage: 4~11 PP
Strategy
If the Armored Frog appears alone, use Freeze[alpha] and Ness's "bash."
If it appears in a group, use Freeze[beta] to defeat it in 1 hit. Use
Fire against this enemy only if it's part of a long row. Defeat the
Armored Frog after any Plain Crocodiles and groups of Red Antoids.
-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

17~19 HP (Paula)
19~27 HP (Jeff)
-Exhale its arctic-cold breath
Effect: a single target catches a cold
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: none
Strategy
One hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the Farm
Zombie. Use Fire against this enemy only if it's part of a long row.

43~55 HP (Paula)
45~61 HP (Jeff)
-Exhale a blast of stinky breath
Effect: makes the entire party uncontrollably cry
Comments: The Mini Barf uses this attack often, so don't bother healing
anyone crying.
-Spit out a sticky mucus
Effect: solidify a single target
-Vent a terrible odor
Effect: decrease a single target's Offense by about 5%
Strategy
Don't heal anyone crying and don't use Freeze against the Mini Barf. Use
Fire[alpha] instead, and use up all of Jeff's Bottle Rockets (not the
Big Bottle Rocket).
If Jeff has the Slime Generator, use it in each round once out of Bottle
Rockets. The success rate of the Slime Generator against the Mini Barf
is high enough to give you some free rounds.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[alpha], if crying
recover with Lifeup[alpha] if someone's HP falls to 60 or lower
-Paula: Fire[beta]
-Jeff: (first few turns) Bottle Rocket

-Say something nasty
Effect: reduce a single target's Guts by about 30%
Strategy
About 1 hit from Ness's "bash" or 1 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.
Defeat this enemy last if it appears in a group.
-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)
-Swing its tail very hard
Damage: 65~100 HP (Ness)
70~78 HP (Paula)

-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, use Freeze[beta] to
defeat it in 1 hit. Defeat this enemy first in all battles.
The Plain Crocodile moves slower than the party outside of battle and
can be avoided.
-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

17~23 HP (Jeff)
-Use a biting attack
Damage: 38~50 HP (Ness)
37~47 HP (Paula)
38~50 HP (Jeff)
-Defense Down[alpha]
Effect: reduce a single target's Defense by about 5%
-Call for help
Effect: a Red Antoid might join the battle
Strategy
One hit from Ness's "bash" and a hit from either Paula or Jeff's
standard attack should defeat the Red Antoid.
One hit from Paula's Fire[beta] also defeats the Red Antoid, though you
should use Fire only when facing a large row of enemies. Defeat Red
Antoids after any Armored Frogs or Plain Crocodiles.
If you have any Insecticide Sprays, use those against the Red Antoids to
damage all of them on screen. The Spray likely won't defeat a Red Antoid
in 1 hit, but it can weaken a Red Antoid enough to be defeated with 1
hit from any party member's standard attack. The Insecticide Spray is
not very useful after Grapefruit Falls and should be used up here.
-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

Comments: I have no idea what this attack does. The Urban Zombie uses
this attack rarely and it never seems to work.
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: nothing
Strategy
About 1 hit from Ness's "bash" and 1 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 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
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 19~23 HP (Ness)
13~16 HP (Paula)
19~23 HP (Jeff)
-Vent a terrible odor
Effect: reduce a single target's Offense by 5~6%
-Leap forward and spread its wings
Effect: solidify a single target
-Knit its brow
Effect: none
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
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
j)Zombie Dog
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Flash, Hypnosis
Attacks
-Biting attack
Damage: 31~46 HP (Ness)
31~46 HP (Paula)
37~50 HP (Jeff)
-Take a bite out of its poisonous fangs
Damage: 31~46 HP (Ness)
31~46 HP (Paula)
37~50 HP (Jeff)
Effect: poisons target
Comments: As far as I can tell, this attack inflicts the same amount of
damage as the Zombie Dog's standard biting attack. The chance
of poisoning its target is close to 100%.
-Make a loud, piercing howl
Effect: none
Strategy
If the Zombie Dog appears alone, you should be able to defeat it within
two rounds with just standard attacks. A hit from Freeze[alpha] and a
hit from Ness or Jeff's standard attack should also defeat this enemy.
If the Zombie Dog appears in a group, use Freeze[beta] in the first
round to defeat it in 1 hit.
Heal any poisoned party members after the battle is over. If Ness has
not learned Healing[beta] (level 24), buy a couple of Refreshing Herbs
at the Drugstore before heading into the Underground Passage.
-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)
-Reach out with its icy hand
Effect: solidify a single target
-Possess you in a frightening manner
Effect: posses a single party member with a Tiny Li'l Ghost
-Call for help
Effect: a Zombie Possessor might join the battle
Strategy
A hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the Zombie
Possessor. One hit from Freeze[beta] also defeats 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] (level 24), buy a couple of
Refreshing Herbs from the Drugstore and use it after a fight if someone
gets poisoned. Buy about 3 Calorie Sticks as well if you don't have any
food.
Next, talk to the arms dealer behind the Pizza Shop and buy 1 or 2 Bottle
Rockets for Jeff; save these for a mini-boss fight coming up soon. You
should also obtain the Teddy Bear from a trash can in the northeast part
of town.
b)The Underground Passage
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 is very linear with no branches. If you encounter any Zombie
Dogs, use Freeze[alpha] or [beta] to defeat them in the first round. Use
Freeze against Zombie Possessors as well to prevent someone from getting
possessed. Use food instead of Lifeup to heal moderate damage after
fights.
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, which should be equipped on
Paula.
The Mini Barf is waiting at the end of the passage. Use Fire and any
Bottle Rockets you have to end the battle quickly. The Mini Barf often
causes uncontrollable crying, so have Ness use PSI Rockin instead of
"bash" if he's affected. Have Jeff use the Slime Generator once out of
Bottle Rockets to give you some free rounds. Keep everyone's HP above 60.
c)Grapefruit Falls
Leave the underground passage to emerge in Grapefruit Falls, another
straightforward area where powerful enemies lurk. A Magic Butterfly often
spawns a little north of the entrance, so exit and reenter Grapefruit
Falls until your HP/PP are replenished. Further up along the river are two
gift boxes containing a Bomb and a Protein Drink. Give the Bomb to Jeff.
The enemies here can be difficult. If you face any Plain Crocodiles,
defeat them first with 1 hit from Freeze[beta]. If you encounter a large
group of Red Antoids, defeat them with Fire or Insecticide Sprays followed
by standard attacks. Armored Frogs have incredibly high Defense, and only
Freeze and Ness's "bash" are likely to inflict much damage. Use Lifeup to
keep everyone's HP above 100.
Keep walking north along the river to eventually find a short cave. This
cave leads to Saturn Valley, a village where the Hotel and Hospital
services are free. Open the gift box near the middle of the cave to obtain
a Bottle Rocket, which should be saved for the Third Sanctuary boss.
When you reach Saturn Valley, enter the house on the right to cure
possession or revive anyone unconscious. Enter the left house to rest.

Resistant: Freeze
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 19~27 HP (Ness)
17~19 HP (Paula)
19~27 HP (Jeff)
-Exhale its arctic-cold breath
Effect: a single target catches a cold
-Laugh hysterically
Effect: none
Strategy
A hit from any 2 party member's standard attack should defeat the Farm
Zombie. Use Fire against this enemy if it appears in a long row. 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

-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Foppy
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 11~14 HP (Ness)
8~9 HP (Paula)
11~14 HP (Jeff)
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
Comments: The Foppy cannot use PSI for the first 4 rounds of battle.
-Brainshock[alpha]
Effect: might make a single target feel strange
-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.
If Paula is low on PP, use PSI Magnet[alpha] or [omega] to recover.
-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: "shoot"
PSI Magnet[alpha] or [omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Master Belch
Recommended Level: 24
Vulnerable: Hypnosis
Attacks
-Burp and blow his nauseating breath at you
Effect: one target becomes nauseous
Comments: Master Belch uses this attack in the first round (unless he's
asleep) even if you use the Jar of Fly Honey first. Use
Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb to cure nausea.
Strategy
Use the Jar of Fly Honey in the first round to render Master Belch
unable to attack. Master Belch is immune to most forms of damage if you
don't use the Fly Honey.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta]
Healing[beta] on anyone nauseous
Lifeup[alpha], if Healing[beta] or a Refreshing Herb is not
available
-Paula: "shoot"
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
d)Mostly Bad Fly
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 16~19 HP (Ness)
14~16 HP (Paula)
16~19 HP (Jeff)
-Say something nasty
Effect: lower Guts of a single target by about 25%
Strategy
A hit from Paula and Jeff's standard attacks should defeat the Mostly
Bad Fly. Ness should be able to inflict just barely enough damage to
defeat this enemy in 1 hit. Use any leftover Insecticide Sprays when
fighting multiple Mostly Bad Flies.
This enemy sometimes 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: "shoot"
-Jeff: "bash"
e)Slimy Little Pile
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 32~46 HP (Ness)
32~40 HP (Paula)
32~46 HP (Jeff)
-Exhale a blast of stinky breath
Effect: causes the entire party to start uncontrollably crying
Comments: The Slimy Little Pile uses this attack often, so don't bother
healing anyone crying.
-Spit out a sticky mucus
Effect: solidifies a single target
-Call for help
Effect: another Slimy Little Pile might join the battle
Strategy
If the Slimy Little Pile appears alone, use Paralysis[alpha] or Freeze
[alpha] to win easily.
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] with a hit from both Ness and
Jeff's standard attacks to defeat one in each round.
Defeat or paralyze this enemy first before attacking any other.
-Ness: (first turn) Paralysis[alpha], if Freeze is not used
"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[alpha] if HP falls to 80 or lower
-Paula: Freeze[alpha], if Paralysis is not used or if everybody is
crying
Freeze[beta], if Paralysis is not used
Fire[beta], if facing a large row of enemies
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Saturn Valley
Enter the cave north of the Hotel and talk to the Mr. Saturn that tells
you to wait 3 minutes behind the waterfall in Grapefruit Falls (an ominous
tone plays after talking to this Mr. Saturn). If this Mr. Saturn isn't
talked to, waiting 3 minutes behind the waterfall does nothing.
Climb the ladder leading out of the cave and the next ladder outside to
reach the upper house. This is the Saturn Valley store. Check the strange
machine on the left side of the room to withdraw some money. Talk to the
Mr. Saturn standing south of the entrance and buy Silver Bracelets and
Great Charms. Buy a Red Ribbon and a Bionic Slingshot for Paula as well.
The Bionic Slingshot has a lower accuracy than the party's standard
weapons and cannot get SMAAAASH!! hits, but the Bionic Slingshot is a good
enough improvement over the Thick Fry Pan to be worthwhile.
If Ness has not learned Healing[beta] (level 24), buy a Refreshing Herb
from the other Mr. Saturn in preparation for an upcoming boss.
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.
Walk further north along the river and into 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 says "...", return to
Saturn Valley and talk to the Mr. Saturn mentioned above. Stay behind the
waterfall for 3 minutes without pressing the D-PAD; otherwise, you'll have
to start over. Pressing any other button doesn't reset the timer.
When the unknown voice says, "Okay...you may enter," the party goes inside
the base. You don't have to wait 3 minutes again to reenter the base if
you leave.
Inside the base, a Slimy Little Pile asks 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] to prevent it from making everyone cry. Freeze
[alpha] or [beta] is also effective.
To the right is a ladder and a door. The door leads to a trash can
containing a Bomb, an item that is not very helpful. Three or four Farm
Zombies usually guard this trash can.
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 take some PP from them. If you want to level up, the Foppy
is the best enemy to fight.
To the left is a second ladder that leads to an IQ Capsule and a Broken
Laser. Use the IQ Capsule on Ness or Paula to increase their max PP or on
Jeff to help him repair items. I usually use it on Paula because she
relies the most on PSI attacks. Give the Broken Laser (24 IQ to repair) to
Jeff.
Continue walking west to find a third ladder. This ladder leads to three
trash cans usually guarded by two or three Mostly Bad Flies and a Slimy
Little Pile. The trash cans hold a Vital Capsule, an HP-Sucker, and a
Calorie Stick. Use the Vital Capsule on Paula to increase her max HP. The
HP-Sucker is a tool for Jeff that drains roughly 10 to 20% of an enemy's
max HP and gives it to Jeff. It drains little HP from normal enemies and
rarely works on bosses, so I usually sell it for $400.
To the left of the third ladder is the Magic Butterfly room. Use Lifeup on
each person before touching the Butterfly, and exit and reenter the room
until HP/PP are replenished.
Continue walking west and another Slimy Little Pile will attack. Use
Paralysis[alpha] or Freeze[alpha] to defeat it.
Master Belch is waiting in the next room. Use the Jar of Fly Honey in the
first round to render him unable to attack. Unfortunately, Master Belch
uses his nauseating breath attack at least once (unless he's asleep) even
if the Jar of Fly Honey is used before he attacks. Use Healing[beta] or a
Refreshing Herb to cure nausea.
Once Master Belch is defeated, enter the doorway he was blocking and walk
through the cave. The party ends up in the upper part of Saturn Valley
near a hot spring. The hot spring cures all status effects but doesn't
restore any HP or PP. If someone is nauseous, enter the hot spring and
walk around in it for a few seconds.
The Jar of Fly Honey is no longer used and can be stored. Also, talk to
the Mr. Saturn in the cave below the store to receive a Mr. Saturn Coin, a
Cup of Lifenoodles, and a Stag Beetle. Equip the Mr. Saturn Coin on Paula,
give the Cup of Lifenoodles to Ness, and sell the Stag Beetle.
EXTRAS
a)Coffee Break
Purpose: read some text that talks about the party's adventure; can be
done after defeating Master Belch
Next to the hot spring is a Mr. Saturn who offers some coffee. If you
answer "yes" to its offer, a funky background fills the screen and
scrolling text appears. The text has a colloquial tone, and the speaker
sounds as though he is talking to Ness. It begins by summarizing Ness's
adventure up to this point and warns of the difficulties ahead.
There is no need to take this "coffee break." If you decide to read the
speech, you'll have to sit through the whole thing.

ENEMIES
a)Ranboob
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 28~42 HP (Ness)
9~10 HP (Paula)
28~42 HP (Jeff)
-Shield[alpha]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50%
Comments: Damage from the Bionic Slingshot and Jeff's guns are not
reduced by Shields.
-Sprinkle around some wonderful-smelling powder
Effect: puts a single target to sleep
Strategy
If the Ranboob appears alone, use standard attacks to defeat it within
two rounds. Use Fire[beta] if this enemy appears in a long row. Always
defeat the Ranboob last. Use PSI Magnet against this enemy to maintain
Paula's PP while heading to the Shining Spot.
-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: "shoot"
Fire[beta], if facing a large row
PSI Magnet[omega] or [alpha]
-Jeff: "shoot"
b)Struttin' Evil Mushroom
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 10~13 HP (Ness)
1 HP (Paula)
10~13 HP (Jeff)
-Scatter some spores
Effect: mushroomize a single target
-Scatter some spores
Effect: poison a single target
Strategy
The Struttin' Evil Mushroom is the most dangerous enemy in this area
because it can mushroomize someone. One hit from Freeze[alpha] usually
defeats it. Use Fire[beta] along with standard attacks when facing more
than one. If this enemy manages to mushroomize two or more people, it
might 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 26 or
lower
-Paula: "shoot"
Freeze[alpha]
Fire[beta], if facing more than one
-Jeff: "shoot"
c)Tough Mobile Sprout
Vulnerable: Fire, Freeze, Paralysis, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 16~19 HP (Ness)
1 HP (Paula)
16~19 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-PSI Magnet[alpha]
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
-Sow some seeds around itself
Effect: a Tough Mobile Sprout might join the battle
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 if Paula's PP is low.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness and Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 38 or
lower
-Paula: "shoot"
Fire[beta], if facing a large row
PSI Magnet[omega] or [alpha] if PP is low
-Jeff: "shoot"
d)Trillionage Sprout (Sanctuary Boss)
Recommended Level: 26
Vulnerable: Fire
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 56~62 HP (Ness)
35~40 HP (Paula)
39~50 HP (Jeff)
-Flash[alpha]
Effect: might cause crying or feeling strange
Comments: If you have any Refreshing Herbs, give them to Jeff before the
fight. Use Refreshing Herbs if Jeff starts crying or if Ness
or Paula feels strange because of Flash. Healing[beta] also
cures crying or feeling strange.
-PSI Shield[alpha]
Effect: nullifies all damage from offensive PSI moves
Comments: One hit from Thunder eliminates a PSI Shield. If you don't
like the randomness of Thunder, 3 hits from any other PSI
attack eliminates a shield as long as the Trillionage Sprout
doesn't use PSI Shield again.
-Paralysis[alpha]
Effect: might paralyze a single target
Comments: Great Charms increase resistance to Paralysis but don't
provide immunity. Use a Secret Herb if someone gets paralyzed.
Secret Herbs can be bought in Saturn Valley.
-Glare with its eerie eyes
Effect: diamondize a single target
Comments: Use a Secret Herb to cure diamondization.
Strategy
If no one is mushroomized, use PSI Rockin[beta] and Fire[beta] in each
round. Have Jeff use up any (Big) Bottle Rockets and Bombs he has. If
you're low on food or Ness is low on PP, "bash" and conserve PP for
Lifeup.
Have anyone mushroomized stick to standard attacks, Lifeup/Healing, and
food items. Note that Ness can inflict a little over 100 HP of damage to
himself and about 70 HP of damage to Paula or Jeff. Paula can also use
Offense Up[alpha] or even Freeze if everyone in the party has at least
120 HP and you can move fast enough to save anyone mortally wounded.
-Ness: PSI Rockin[beta]
"bash," if mushroomized or low on PP
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 80 or lower
recover Ness with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Paula: Fire[beta]
Offense Up[alpha], if mushroomized
-Jeff: (first turn) Big Bottle Rocket
"shoot," Bottle Rockets, or Bombs if available
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
This is probably the hardest Sanctuary location to complete if you try to
record the Third Melody now. If you find the enemies in the Third
Sanctuary Cave are too hard, you can come back later.
If you don't have the Mr. Saturn Coin, talk to the Mr. Saturn in the cave
below the store to receive the Coin, a Cup of Lifenoodles, and a Stag
Beetle. Equip the Mr. Saturn Coin on Paula, give the Cup of Lifenoodles to
Ness, and sell the Stag Beetle.
Go to the store and buy 2 Secret Herbs in preparation for the Sanctuary
boss; have two different party members carry one each. If you have any
Refreshing Herbs, give them to Jeff. Stock up on Peanut Cheese Bars if
you're low on food and give them to Paula and Jeff.
b)Third Sanctuary Area Enemies
The Third Sanctuary Cave is located near the hot spring. The biggest
threat here is the Struttin' Evil Mushroom's ability to mushroomize
someone. There's a good chance one person will get mushroomized by the
time you reach the Shining Spot, but it's unlikely that any more will be
affected if you fight aggressively. Have anyone mushroomized use standard
attacks or "defend" if someone in your party is injured (Ness can inflict
a little over 100 HP of damage to himself or Jeff).
Always defeat any Struttin' Evil Mushrooms first. One hit from Freeze
[alpha] usually defeats it; use Fire[beta] and standard attacks when
facing more than one.
The Tough Mobile Sprouts and the Ranboobs can be taken care of with Fire
[beta] if a large group of them appears. Defeat any Tough Mobile Sprouts
before attacking any Ranboobs, since Tough Mobile Sprouts can use PSI
Magnet and grow more Sprouts by sowing their seeds. Use PSI Magnet against
the Ranboobs to recover Paula's PP.
The path to the Third Sanctuary Location is short and straightforward. The
first two rooms in the cave are the hardest because a large group of
enemies is likely to be found here. If Paula gets mushroomized in this
cave, return to the hot spring.
Past the first cave is an outdoor area where Magic Butterflies often
spawn. 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 protection as the Mr. Saturn Coin and should be equipped on Jeff.
Walk east to reach the Shining Spot.
d)Sanctuary Boss Battle
If you reach the Shining Spot without anyone getting mushroomized, the
Trillionage Sprout should be fairly easy. Use Fire[beta] and PSI Rockin
[beta] in each round while Jeff uses up any (Big) Bottle Rockets and Bombs
he has. Use a Secret Herb to cure anyone diamondized or paralyzed, and
have Jeff use a Refreshing Herb if he starts crying or if Ness or Paula
starts feeling strange because of Flash[alpha]. Healing[beta] also cures
crying or feeling strange.
Have anyone mushroomized stick to standard attacks and use food items or
Lifeup to keep everyone's HP up. Paula can also use Offense Up[alpha] or
even Freeze if everyone in the party has at least 120 HP and you can move
fast enough to save anyone mortally wounded.
e)Leaving Threed
With Master Belch defeated, Threed is now back to normal and the tunnels
leading out of town are no longer infested by ghosts. Return to Threed and
take the bus going east out of town (you may want to do the Insignificant
Item sidequest now for a Magic Truffle; see the "Extras" section below).
EXTRAS
a)Insignificant Item
Purpose: receive a Magic Truffle (recovers 80 PP; 160 PP with a Ketchup
Packet)
If you're the type of player that talks to everyone in an RPG, you might
have met a man in the hospital in Twoson talking about an item he left in
the hospital in Threed. To find this item, go to the second floor of
Threed Hospital and enter the room on the left. Approach the drawer and

outside of battle. (See the video walkthrough for ways to find this
enemy.)
The Criminal Caterpillar appears rarely and always moves away from the
party, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an instant
victory. On the off chance you get into a fight with this enemy, use

Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] (level 27) in the first round to defend against

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
When you reach Dusty Dunes Desert, go to the Drugstore and buy a Mr.
Baseball Bat for Ness, a Deluxe Fry Pan for Paula, and a Coin of Slumber
for whoever needs it. Buy a food item to give away if you don't have one.
If Jeff does not have the Laser Gun or the Broken Laser, buy a Zip Gun
from the Arms Dealer north of the Drugstore (if Jeff was equipped with the
Magnum Air Gun, call Escargo Express and store it). If the Broken Laser
has not been repaired yet (24 IQ needed), don't rest at the Drugstore to
get it fixed; there is a place you can sleep for free coming up soon.
As you walk through the desert, you may notice the screen flash red. This
happens when somebody is suffering from sunstroke, which inflicts 2 HP of
damage every 4 seconds outside of battle and 4 HP of damage per turn in
battle. Use Healing[alpha] or a Wet Towel to cure sunstroke.
b)Detour
With heavy traffic blocking the road, the party has no choice but to walk
through the desert. The only thing you have to do here is talk to the
miner to the east and give him a food item. Just follow the rocks lining
the southern edge of the desert to find him and his shack. There is a gift
box along the way containing a Big Bottle Rocket; take it and give it to
Jeff. The man inside the miner's shack lets the party rest for free.
The enemies here should not give you too much trouble. Use Freeze to
defeat Skelpions and Desert Wolves quickly, and use Paralysis on Bad
Buffalo to immobilize them. Defeat any Smilin' Spheres last in battle
because they explode when defeated. Use Paula's PSI Shield[sigma] (level
27) to defend against the Smilin' Sphere's Fire, and keep everyone's HP
above 60 to ensure everyone survives the explosion.
NOTE: The Criminal Caterpillar is another enemy that can be found in the
desert. It appears rarely but awards a little over 10,000 exp.
points. The Criminal Caterpillar looks like a small green worm
outside of battle, and because it always tries to move away, it's
easy to approach from behind and get an instant victory. (See the
video walkthrough for ways to find this enemy.)
If you want to explore a bit, there are some gift boxes you can find and a
few characters you can meet in the desert. You can also search for a
contact lens someone lost and return them to their owner in Fourside for a
Pair of Dirty Socks (see Extras section below). All in all, though, there
isn't much in the desert worth your time, and you should just give the
miner a food item and proceed to Fourside.
The tunnel to Fourside is to the southeast at the end of the road through
the desert.
EXTRAS
a)Contact Lens
Purpose: receive a Pair of Dirty Socks, an item that solidifies a random
enemy in battle; can be used only once
North-northwest of the miner's shack is a sign that offers a reward for
finding and returning a contact lens someone lost in the desert. To find
the contact lens, just look for something shining on the ground a little
bit northeast of the sign.
Take the lens to a man living in the second floor of the Bakery in
Fourside (the Bakery is near the eastern edge of the city). The man gives
the party a Pair of Dirty Socks in return. This item can solidify a random
enemy when used in battle but can be used only once.
b)The Sanchez Brothers and their Friend
Purpose: play a slot machine mini-game
Once the traffic on the road is clear, walk along the road running through
Dusty Dunes Desert. Eventually, you'll come across a broken slot machine
and 3 men wearing sombreros. "Check" the slot machine and insert $1 to set
the 3 men spinning. If all 3 men face the same direction when they stop,
you'll win one of the following items:
All facing front - PSI Caramel (recovers 20 PP)
All facing right - Skip Sandwich (increases walking speed for 10 sec.)
All facing back - Chick (grow into Chicken and sell for $110)
All facing left - Can of Fruit Juice (recovers 6 HP)

defeat the Crazed Sign first.
According to starmen.net, this enemy has a 1/128 chance of dropping the

WALKTHROUGH
a)To the City and Back
There's not a lot to do on the first visit to Fourside. You can visit
Pokey in the Monotoli Building, but you get nothing for doing so. No good
equipment is sold here yet either, but if you don't have the Slime
Generator, buy a Broken Iron from a guy with a mohawk in northeast
Fourside.
Go to Topolla Theater in central Fourside. Buy a Show Ticket for $30 and
go into the manager's office to the left. Talk to the manager and return
to the miner's shack in Dusty Dunes Desert. You can watch the Runaway
Five's performance by entering the music hall if you want.

WALKTHROUGH
a)The Five Moles
The gold mine that was previously just a hole should now be much bigger.
If it is not, give the miner a food item and/or return to Fourside and
talk to the manager of Topolla theater. If you obtained an Exit Mouse
earlier in Onett, carry it with you; otherwise, you can get one inside 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 imply they are all of the same strength. To preserve your PP, use
food items instead of Lifeup to recover moderate damage after fights.
Return to the shack outside with an Exit Mouse if Ness's PP runs low. You
can also use PSI Magnet against Gigantic Ants while Jeff uses the Slime
Generator in each round to recover Paula's PP.
My walkthrough here gives a suggestion on how to navigate this mine, but
you don't have to follow it by any means.
Upon entering the mine, walk all the way north and go down the ladder.
From the ladder, walk west and fight the first mole. These moles have high
Offense and are protected with a reflecting shield from the beginning of
battle. Two hits from Freeze[beta] or one hit from Freeze[gamma] (level
31) defeats them. Ness should "defend" and use Lifeup to keep everyone's
HP above 100, while Jeff uses the Slime Generator in the first round if
Paula hasn't learned Freeze[gamma]. Don't use standard attacks.
Open the gift box behind the mole to find an IQ Capsule. Use it on either
Paula or Ness to increase their max PP at the next level up.
Climb the left ladder and walk as far south as you can. The path bends
northwest. Follow this path to find a gift box containing a Big Bottle
Rocket; give it to Jeff.
Continue north and go down the ladder to find the second mole.
Defeat the mole and take the Coin of Defense from the gift box; equip it
on Jeff (or Paula if she's not wearing the Mr. Saturn Coin).
Walk west and climb the ladder. Go a bit south to find a fork; to the east
is a Teddy Bear. Go south and a little to the east to reach the center of
the mine.
If Ness's PP is low at this point, receive an Exit Mouse and go back to
the miner's shack to rest. Return to this location afterwards (from the
entrance, turn west at the first fork and south at the next).
Go down the south passage to find the third mole. Obtain the Luck Capsule
and the Platinum Band after the battle, and equip the Platinum Band on
Paula.
Return to the center of the mine and go north to reach the fourth mole.
Use the Guts Capsule behind the mole on Ness.
Return to the center of the mine and head southwest. The ladder on the way
leads to a Super Bomb, an item that should be given to Jeff and saved for
Fourside.
Continue following the passage west to the final mole. When all the moles
are defeated, the music in the mine changes.
b)Free the Runaway Five
After defeating the five moles, return to the surface and talk to the
miner. Make your way to Fourside to receive the Diamond on the way.
Go to the manager of Topolla Theater and "use" the Diamond while standing
next to her.

ENEMIES
a)Dept. Store Spook
Recommended Level: 31
Attacks
-Freeze[alpha]
Damage: 150~220 HP
Effect: solidification (25% chance)
-Fire[alpha]
Damage: 60~100 HP to all
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-PSI Magnet[omega]
Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from each party member
-Brainshock[alpha]
Effect: might make a single target feel strange
Strategy
Use PSI Rockin[beta] and a Big Bottle Rocket to win in one round.
If you don't have a Big Bottle Rocket, give all your food items and
Bombs to Jeff before the fight. Use PSI Rockin[beta] while Jeff keeps
everyone alive. If you don't have that much food, your best options are
to either buy Picnic Lunches at Dusty Dunes Desert or order Large Pizzas
from Mach Pizza (enter Mach Pizza in Threed or Twoson to learn their
phone number).
-Ness: PSI Rockin[beta]
-Jeff: (first turn) Big Bottle Rocket
(subsequent turns) "shoot", if battle is not over in one round
Picnic Lunch or Large Pizza, if someone's HP falls below 150
Bombs and Super Bombs
b)Musica
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 50~55 HP (Ness)
30~35 HP (Jeff)
-Electrical shock attack
Effect: summon 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Play a haunting melody
Effect: puts multiple targets to sleep
Comments: This attack has a very high success rate and can leave Ness
and Jeff helpless without the Franklin Badge.
Strategy
The Musica is manageable with the Franklin Badge but still dangerous.
Defeat this enemy after Scalding Coffe Cups. Use PSI Rockin[beta] and a
Super Bomb if you have one when they appear in a group and you don't
have the Franklin Badge.
Like all gift box enemies, the Musica can move only in a straight line
on the field and can be avoided or approached from behind.
-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[alpha] if HP falls to 70 or lower if he
has the Franklin Badge
-Jeff: (first turn) Slime Generator, when facing only one
"shoot"
c)Mystical Record
Vulnerable: Fire, Brainshock
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 30~45 HP (Ness)
15~25 HP (Jeff)
-Charge forward
Damage: 75~120 HP (Ness)
60~95 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Mystical Record in 2 rounds using
standard attacks. Use the Slime Generator in the first round if the
Mystical Record appears alone. Use PSI Rockin[beta] when facing a group.
Defeat this enemy last.
Like all gift box enemies, the Mystical Record can move only in a
straight line on the field and can be avoided or approached from behind.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta], when 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: (first turn) Slime Generator, when facing only one
"shoot"
d)Scalding Coffee Cup
Vulnerable: Freeze
Attacks
-Spill some scalding hot espresso
Damage: 60~100 HP to all party members
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. Always defeat this enemy first.
Like all gift box enemies, the Scalding Coffee Cup can move only in a
straight line on the field and can be avoided or approached from behind.
-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, transfer some of Paula's goods to Ness or Jeff's
inventory. Equip Jeff with your best defensive items--give him the
Franklin Badge, the Mr. Saturn Coin, and the Platinum Band if you have
them and give Ness the Coin of Defense. Don't sell anything you might need
later because this is a temporary setup.
b)Mook Spook
The Fourside Dept. Store opens once the Runaway Five is free. Be at max
HP/PP before entering the store.
Go to the arms dealer on the second floor and get a Hyper Beam for Jeff.
If Jeff does not have a Big Bottle Rocket, buy one or two of those as
well. Next, go to the Tool Shop on the third floor and buy whatever armor
you need for Ness and Jeff (most likely a Gold Bracelet for Ness). Don't
buy anything for Paula. Walk back to the entrance.
Once the lights go out, head towards the fourth floor of the building. The
enemies on the way are powerful but can be avoided--the gift boxes can
move only in a straight line and can be sidestepped. After that, you can
try to approach them from behind to get a surprise opening attack or
continue on your way. Keep in mind that if you get a green swirl, you have
a 100% chance of running away in the first round.
Use PSI Rockin[beta] when facing a group. When facing only 1 Mystical
Record or Musica, have Jeff use the Slime Generator in the first round;
the Slime Generator has a decent success rate against those enemies and
can give you a free round. Always defeat Scalding Coffee Cups first and
Musicas second. Eat food after battles to keep Ness and Jeff's HP near
max.
If you didn't prepare Ness and Jeff before the lights went out and Jeff
doesn't have a Big Bottle Rocket, you should probably buy some Picnic
Lunches at Dusty Dunes Desert or order Large Pizzas and give them to Jeff.
Use food to recover moderate damage after battles to conserve Ness's PP
for the boss fight.
Enter the fourth floor office and talk to the creature behind the desk to
start the battle. Use PSI Rockin[beta] and a Big Bottle Rocket to win in 1
or 2 rounds.
If you don't have a Big Bottle Rocket, have Jeff use food to keep everyone
alive while Ness uses PSI Rockin[beta]. Have Jeff throw Bombs and Super
Bombs when he has the chance.
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.

Strategy
You should be able to win within three rounds using standard attacks.
Use PSI Rockin[beta] when facing a group. Make sure Jeff is always
carrying some food just in case both Ness and Jeff are mortally wounded.
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.

Comments: The Night Pendant provides near immunity to this attack.
-Emit a pale green light
Effect: resets any stats changes and removes all shields
Strategy
Equip Ness with the Night Pendant before fighting the Mani-Mani Statue.
Use Big Bottle Rockets and PSI Rockin[beta] as much as possible to win
in two or three rounds. Cure anyone paralyzed with a Secret Herb.
If Jeff does not have a Big Bottle Rocket, transfer all of your food and
offensive items to Jeff's inventory before the fight. Use PSI Rockin
[beta] in each round while Jeff uses any Bombs or Super Bombs he's
carrying. Have Jeff use food to keep everyone alive so that Ness can
focus on attacking rather than recovering. If you don't have any food,
buy some Double Burgers at the Hotel.

just before the Robo-Pump attacks in the fourth round. Ness and Jeff
should ideally have over 100 HP before starting this fight in case the
Robo-Pump manages to throw a Bomb.
-Ness: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)The Cafe
Buy 2 Big Bottle Rockets at the Dept. Store if Jeff doesn't have any. Go
to 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. Go back outside to find a group of people crowding 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 suffices--and he will move out of the way for
Ness and Jeff.
Talk to Everdred and answer "no" when prompted; answering "yes" causes him
to tell his story again.
After he leaves, enter the Cafe and "check" the cabinet behind the
counter.
b)Moonside
Talk to the people here and you'll realize "no" means "yes" and "yes"
means "no." If you talk to one of the blonde haired men wearing sunglasses
outside, 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 you have to do here is find a way out. First, talk to the
man standing to the right of the Monotoli Building in southern Moonside.
You can teleport to the Monotoli Building by talking to one of the blonde
men southeast of the Cafe.
Next, talk to the blond man walking in front of the Hospital in northern
Moonside to warp to a gift box. Open the gift box to find a Night Pendant
and equip it on Ness.
You need to talk to two more blond haired men to progress. Get a Secret
Herb from one of the gift boxes on the way. Give it to Jeff or whoever
doesn't already have one in preparation for the next boss.
Your final warp comes from a man wearing glasses. Answer "no" to his
question when you talk to him.
Talk to the mysterious black silhouette in this room and answer "no" when
prompted. Next, talk to the other man to escape from the room.
Rest at the Hotel if Ness and Jeff are not at max HP/PP. If Jeff doesn't
have a Big Bottle Rocket, buy some Double Burgers for him.
Leave the Hotel and talk to the person standing next to the Monotoli
Building again. This time, the man moves out of the way and lets Ness and
Jeff pass.
Walk to the entrance of the Monotoli Building and "check" the statue to
start the fight. Use PSI Rockin[beta] and Big Bottle Rockets to win in 2
or 3 rounds.
If you don't have a Big Bottle Rocket, give all of your food and offensive
items to Jeff. Have Ness use PSI Rockin[beta] as much as possible while
Jeff keeps everyone alive with food. Use a Secret Herb if someone gets
paralyzed.
Leave the Cafe and go to the Dept. Store to buy Big Bottle Rockets to
replace the ones you used. Go to Dusty Dunes Desert and enter the Monkey
cave north of the Drugstore.

6.Monkey Cave
Recommended Level: 33
ITEMS
a)Pencil Eraser
Use: eliminates any pencil shaped statues
You need the Pencil Eraser to get through the Monkey Cave. If Paula had
the Pencil Eraser when she was kidnapped, call Escargo Express to have it
delivered to the party (thanks to: G. Pilon).
b)Flame Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage from Fire or
equivalent attacks by 96%; Defense +15
Obtained: chest in the Monkey Cave
Equip the Flame Pendant on Paula when she rejoins the party. This item
comes in handy against the many fire using enemies that appear later.
c)Neutralizer
Use: resets any stats changes and removes any shields from all enemies and
allies
Obtained: trash can in the Monkey Cave
The Neutralizer removes all shields protecting both enemies and party
members. Some enemies later in the game are protected with reflecting
shields, and the Neutralizer is often the most reliable way to remove
them.
d)Broken Tube
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Hungry HP-Sucker
Obtained: trash can in the Monkey Cave
IQ Required: 36
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 (though it can be pretty damaging when it
does).

ENEMIES
The enemies in the Monkey Cave should give you no problems.
WALKTHROUGH
a)Introduction
NOTE: A map may be easier to follow. A map can be found at starmen.net.
To get to the end of the Monkey Cave, the party needs to give various
items to a number of Monkeys. You can buy or obtain most of the items
you'll need before entering the cave, but almost all of the necessary
items can be found within the cave itself. I assume in the walkthrough
that you'll be buying a minimal amount of items before entering the cave
and that the party doesn't have any of the needed items beforehand.
Some very useful items can be found in the Monkey Cave. The Neutralizer is
an item for Jeff that can eliminate all enemy shields (as well as your
own) and resets any stats changes; the Flame Pendant is armor that reduces
damage inflicted by Fire and equivalent attacks by 96%. Both items come in
handy at several points in the game. The walkthrough below describes how
to get to the end of the Monkey Cave while getting all the important items
found inside.
b)The Trading Game
Before entering the cave, buy a Picnic Lunch and a Skip Sandwich from the
Dusty Dunes Drugstore if the party does not have them. Bring the Pencil
Eraser with you also.
NOTE: If Paula had the Pencil Eraser when she was kidnapped, call Escargo
Express and have them 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 doorway 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 get the Pizza in the next room.
C. Walk west and receive the Fresh Egg from the monkey.
NOTE: The Fresh Egg turns into a Chick in about 1 minute, so you must
hurry the next part. If you don't give the Fresh Egg away in time,
the same monkey gives you another one.
D. Go back four rooms and give the monkey on the right a Skip Sandwich.
Obtain the Wet Towel in the chest.
E. Walk west and give the monkey on the left a Pizza. Obtain the Protein
Drink in the next room.
F. Return to the previous room and give the monkey on the right a Protein
Drink. Obtain the Hamburger in the chest.
G. Walk west and give the monkey on the right a Fresh Egg. The Neutralizer
is in the next room.
THE FLAME PENDANT AND THE BROKEN TUBE:
H. Go back five rooms and enter the doorway on the left (the one opened by
giving the monkey a Picnic Lunch at the beginning).
I. Keep going forward until you see two monkeys. Give the monkey on the
right a Wet Towel and get the Ruler and the Hamburger in the next room.
J. Walk west and give both monkeys a Hamburger. Enter each doorway to find
the Flame Pendant and the Broken Tube. Equip the Flame Pendant on Jeff
for now, but equip it on Paula when she rejoins the party.
THE BAG OF DRAGONITE and THE END OF THE CAVE:
K. Go back five rooms and enter the doorway on the right.
L. Walk west until you see two doorways and enter the one on the right.
M. Walk west until you see two more monkeys and give the one on the left a
Ruler. Enter the doorway and receive the King Banana from the monkey.
N. Go back three rooms and enter the doorway on the left.
O. Walk west and give the monkey on the right the King Banana.
Keep moving forward to reach the end of the cave. If you want the Bag of
Dragonite, 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 receive the Yogurt
Dispenser.
Next, talk to the monkey to have Ness learn Teleport[alpha].
d)Don't Teleport to Winters
With Teleport[alpha], you can go to Winters to buy some of the equipment
from the Drugstore there. You shouldn't do this, however, because better
equipment will be available soon, and you should save as much money as
possible to buy the best gear in the next town.

ENEMIES
a)Clumsy Robot
Recommended Level: 33
Attacks
-Fire a missile, making itself dizzy
Damage: 150~350 HP (Ness)
150~350 HP (Jeff)
Peripheral Damage: 90~170 HP
-Stumble, but fire a strange beam
Effect: solidifies one target
-Eat a bologne sandwich
Effect: none
Comments: The battle dialogue window says that the Clumsy Robot recovers
full HP after eating the sandwich, but from my experience this
move doesn't seem to delay the end of the fight.
-Clean the area
Effect: none
-Is reeling
Effect: none
-Is wobbly
Effect: none
-Lose a gear and some bolts
Effect: none
-Re-apply a bandage
Effect: none
-Want to go and get a battery
Effect: none
Strategy
Use Paralysis[alpha] in each round until the Clumsy Robot is paralyzed,
while Jeff uses food items to keep everyone's HP up. When recovering
HP, try to wait until the HP counter stops moving upwards before
attacking again (provided nobody is seriously wounded).
Don't use Big Bottle Rockets against this enemy because it rarely (if
ever) inflicts any damage.
-Ness: Paralysis[alpha], until successful
"bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls to 150 or
lower
-Jeff: "shoot"
recover with a food item if anyone's HP falls to 150 or lower
b)Sentry Robot
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 40~60 HP (Ness)
30~50 HP (Jeff)
-Fire a Bottle Rocket
Damage: 100~150 HP (Ness)
100~150 HP (Jeff)
-Call for help
Effect: a Sentry Robot might join the battle
-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 facing multiple Sentry Robots.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta], when facing more than one
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
a)The 48th Floor
Return to Fourside after receiving the Yogurt Dispenser from Talah Rama
in the Monkey Cave. Buy a few Double Burgers for Jeff at the Dept. Store
if you have no food. Buy a couple of Big Bottle Rockets as well if Jeff
doesn't have any, and save them for the next Sanctuary boss.
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.
The 48th floor is guarded by Sentry Robots patrolling different areas.
There is no "secret code" you can tell the Sentries to let Ness and Jeff
pass. You should be able to defeat this enemy within three rounds using
standard attacks. Use PSI Rockin[beta] when facing more than one. Recover
with Lifeup if Ness or Jeff's HP falls below 120.
Once off the elevator, walk west through the door and fight the two Sentry
Robots in the hallway. Enter the leftmost door at the end of the hallway.
You can avoid the Sentry Robot in the next room by squeezing between the
desk and the wall in the upper left corner of the room. Enter the upper
door.
The door at the top of the next room leads to a gift box containing a
Sudden Guts Pill guarded by a Sentry Robot. If you don't have at least one
of these, it may be a good idea to obtain it here. If you don't want to
fight the Sentry Robot, you can come back after talking to Mr. Monotoli
and all the Sentry Robots disappear.
Enter the other door to proceed. The Sentry Robot in the next room can be
avoided by quickly entering the right-hand door to the north. The left
door leads to a Vital Capsule, which should be saved for Paula when she
rejoins the party. Again, you can wait until after talking to Monotoli to
get this item.
The upper door in the next room leads to the maid's room, but all she
gives the party is Trout Yogurt, a food item that recovers a paltry 30 HP.
b)Clumsy Robot
Before proceeding, be at max HP and give your best food to Jeff. Enter the
door on the left to encounter the Clumsy Robot.
The Clumsy Robot's only attack can inflict mortal damage to either Ness or
Jeff in one hit, but Paralysis can render this enemy helpless. Paralysis
isn't guaranteed to work, but you should eventually be successful if you
keep using it in each round. Have Jeff use food to keep everyone's HP
above 120.
c)Monotoli
Enter the door to the left after the battle is over and talk to Monotoli.
When Paula rejoins the party, give her your best defensive items and the
Franklin Badge. Paula should be equipped with the Flame Pendant, a
Platinum Band, and the Mr. Saturn Coin; Jeff with a Great Charm, a Gold
Bracelet, and a Coin of Defense; and Ness with a Night Pendant, a Silver
Bracelet, and a Coin of Slumber. If you don't have the Mr. Saturn Coin,
teleport to Saturn Valley and talk to one of the Mr. Saturns in the cave
below the Store. The Gold Bracelet and the Coin of Defense can be bought
at the Department Store, but you should save your money until you get to
the next town.
Enter the door to the left and walk to the end of the hallway. Approach
the helicopter, watch the scene, and return to the entrance of the
Monotoli Building.
d)Flying to Winters
Make sure Jeff has Big Bottle Rockets and there's nothing else you want to
do around here before proceeding. Return to the cell where Ness and Paula
were held earlier in Threed to find the Sky Runner fixed. "Check" the Sky
Runner to fly to Dr. Andonuts's Lab.
Don't teleport away from Winters until you reach the next town. Otherwise,
when you teleport back to Winters the party will be taken to Snow Wood
Boarding House, and you'll 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.

30~50 HP (Jeff)
-Biting attack
Damage: 90~140 HP (Ness)
80~90 HP (Paula)
90~130 HP (Jeff)
-Become friendly and affectionate
Effect: solidify a single target
-Size up the situation
Effect: makes itself feel strange
Strategy
A hit from each party member's standard attack should defeat the Elder
Batty. If this enemy appears in a group, use Freeze[beta] and a hit from
Ness or Jeff's standard attack. Defeat this enemy after any Strong
Crocodiles it may appear with.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 100 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] or [beta] if HP falls to 120 or
lower

-Claw with his sharp nails
Damage: 160~210 HP (Ness)

60~90 HP (Paula)
65~100 HP (Jeff)
-Lifeup[alpha]
Effect: recover 70~120 HP
-Scatter some spores
Effect: mushroomize a target
-Scatter some spores
Effect: poison a target
-Disrupt your senses
Effect: a target becomes unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
Comments: The success rate of this attack is too low to pose much of a
threat.
Strategy
Like most boss battles, the best strategy here is to be aggressive and
defeat the enemy quickly. This is especially true against Shrooom!
because it will likely mushroomize most of your party if the battle
lasts too long.
Assuming nobody is mushroomized, use up all Big Bottle Rockets and
attack with PSI Rockin[beta] and Fire[beta] as much as possible. Keep
everyone's HP above 120 and don't bother to cure anyone poisoned.
If Jeff doesn't have any Big Bottle Rockets, do not teleport to Fourside
to buy any. Instead, buy some Beef Jerky for Paula and Jeff from the
Cave Boy in Dr. Andonuts's Lab, and use them to keep everyone alive. The
Bag of Dragonite is effective as well, though you may want to save it
for a later boss (the Kraken).
If Ness becomes mushroomized, have him use only Lifeup or Healing[beta].
If Paula is mushroomized, have her use food items and Offense Up[alpha]
on Jeff and Ness if he runs out of PP. If both Ness and Paula get
mushroomized, have Paula use Freeze[beta] and have Jeff recover any
mortally wounded party member with food.
-Ness: PSI Rockin[beta]
"defend," if mushroomized
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 90 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[alpha] if HP falls to 120 or lower
-Paula: Fire[beta]
Offense Up[alpha], if mushroomized
Freeze[beta], if both Ness and Paula are mushroomized
-Jeff: (first few turns) Big Bottle Rocket
food items
"defend," if mushroomized
f)Strong Crocodile
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 80~110 HP (Ness)
60~70 HP (Paula)
70~85 HP (Jeff)
-Swing its tail very hard
Damage: 170~200 HP (Ness)
110~170 HP (Paula)
125~180 HP (Jeff)
-Biting attack
Damage: 160~200 HP (Ness)
110~160 HP (Paula)
150~190 HP (Jeff)
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
Use Paula's strongest Freeze attack and standard attacks to defeat the
Strong Crocodile as soon as possible.
-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
-Paula: Freeze[gamma]
Freeze[beta]
-Jeff: "shoot"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Fourth Sanctuary Location
After reaching Winters, "check" the Instant Revitalizing Device to recover
HP/PP (the Device is the machine that resembles a furnace).
If Jeff doesn't have Big Bottle Rockets, do not teleport to Fourside to buy
any. Instead, buy some Beef Jerky for Paula and Jeff from the Cave Boy. If
you don't have any money and food either, you can still survive but be sure
to save your game.
Go to the Shining Spot Jeff passed by on his first trip through Winters.
There are new, more powerful enemies around Stonehenge and inside the cave,
but the way to the Shining Spot is short, and you shouldn't have to fight
too many enemies. The Cave Boys and the Mighty Bear Sevens both move slower
than the party on the field, but use Freeze to defeat any Bears as soon as
possible if you get into a fight. The Cave Boys hardly pose a threat
anymore.
b)Sanctuary Boss
Like most boss battles, the best strategy here is to be aggressive and
defeat the enemy quickly. This is especially true against Shrooom! because
it will likely mushroomize most of your party if the battle lasts too long.
Assuming nobody is mushroomized, use up all Big Bottle Rockets and attack
with PSI Rockin[beta] and Fire[beta] as much as possible. Keep everyone's
HP above 120 and don't bother to cure anyone poisoned.
If Jeff doesn't have any Big Bottle Rockets, use PSI Rockin[beta] and Fire
[beta] as much as possible while Jeff keeps everyone alive with food.
If Ness becomes mushroomized, have him use only Lifeup or Healing[beta]. If
Paula is mushroomized, have her use food items and Offense Up[alpha] on
Jeff and Ness if he runs out of PP. If both Ness and Paula get
mushroomized, have Paula use Freeze[beta] and have Jeff recover any
mortally wounded party member with food.
After defeating Shrooom!, record the Fourth Sanctuary Melody, return to
the lab, and ride the Sky Runner.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
9.Winters's New Enemies
This section is for those who teleported away from Winters after taking the
Sky Runner there and before recording the Fourth Sanctuary Melody. If you
saved after doing this or saved too long ago, you'll have to walk from Snow
Wood Boarding House to Dr. Andonuts's Lab while facing some new enemies.
Before making your way south, equip Paula with the Great Charm to increase
her Speed. Buy 1 or 2 Secret Herbs at Saturn Valley if you don't have any in
case someone gets diamondized and bring the Pencil Eraser with you. If you
don't have any food, buy some Double Burgers for Paula and Jeff in Fourside.
The enemies you'll face are the Lesser Mook, the Wooly Shambler, and the
Whirling Robo. The Lesser Mook is the most powerful because it can use Freeze
and cause diamondization. Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round and use
Fire[beta] until the Lesser Mook is defeated. Use Hypnosis[omega] while in
northern Winters to put the Lesser Mook and maybe its cohorts to sleep.
The Whirling Robo can use a Neutralizer to remove your shields and leave you
exposed to the Lesser Mook's Freeze, so always have your fastest party member
carry some food in case someone gets mortally wounded. Use Freeze[beta] and a
standard attack to defeat the Whirling Robo after any Lesser Mooks.
The Wooly Shambler can use PSI Shield and Flash, but they aren't likely to
cause much trouble. If the Wooly Shambler uses PSI Shield on a Lesser Mook,
you should usually be alright using standard attacks instead of Fire against
the Lesser Mook.
Don't worry about PP in northern Winters because you can rest in a couple of
tents on the way to Lake Tess. Brick Road is no longer in southern Winters to
let you rest, so you'll have to conserve your PP until you get to Dr.
Andonuts's Lab after crossing the lake. Don't use Hypnosis[omega] and use PSI
Magnet when facing only 1 Wooly Shambler or Whirling Robo to recover Paula's
PP. Use food to recover moderate damage after fights.

the Xterminator Spray, an item that inflicts about 200 HP of damage to
all bugs. The in-game description states the spray can be used "many

WALKTHROUGH
a)Shopping in Summers and Winters
Buy some new equipment upon reaching Summers. The store is northeast of
the party's starting point.
Merchandise here is expensive, and you may not be able to afford the best
equipment. If that's the case, you can buy some slightly inferior
equipment at a much lower cost in Winters (the Winters Drugstore actually
sells a better weapon for Paula). Note that the Big League Bat and the
Platinum Band are sold at roughly half the price in the next town, which
you can reach pretty soon.
As usual, give priority to maximizing Paula's Defense. To help you decide
what to buy, here is a table comparing some of the equipment available to
you (old equipment is shown as well):
______________________________________
| STATS BOOST | COST | LOCATION |
__________________|_______________|________|_____________|
| Big League Bat | +54 Offense | $3080 | Summers |

| Platinum Band | +40 Defense | $6899 | Summers |
|__________________|_______________|________|____________|
| Gold Bracelet | +30 Defense | $2799 | Fourside |
|__________________|_______________|________|____________|
The Big League Bat and Platinum Band are sold in the next town (Scaraba)
for $1380 and $3899 respectively. You can get to Scaraba after the fourth
party member joins Ness, but you have to fight a boss on the way.
At the very least, buy a Diamond Band and a Lucky Coin for Paula and equip
the Mr. Saturn Coin on whomever you can't afford a Lucky Coin for. It
costs about $50,000 to buy the best equipment available.
b)Magic Cake
Head for Toto, the town east of Summers. There is a Store here as well,
but it does not sell anything very useful. Enter the fourth door from the
start of Toto and talk to the man inside to learn the phone number of the
Stoic Club, a place in Summers.
After exiting the building, the party gets a call from Tony, Jeff's
roommate back in Snow Wood. He asks you to enter your name (the player's
name, not Ness or a party member). Your name appears a few times at the
end of the game.
Next, enter the Toto Shop and call the Stoic Club.
Enter the club in Summers and talk to the mustached man standing next to
the table on the left side of the room.
Talk to the woman wearing the pink dress near the entrance and answer
"yes" when prompted.
Follow the woman out of the building and walk to the cart to the southwest
of the club. Talk to her to eat some Magic Cake.

2.Poo's Trial
ITEMS
a)Brain Stone
Use: prevents its holder from being unable to concentrate
Obtained: chest in Dalaam Palace
Most attacks that disrupt concentration have a low success rate, so you
can give the Brain Stone to Escargo Express.
b)Jar of Delisauce
Use: condiment; when used with a food item, this increases the amount of
HP and/or PP recovered by about 50~100%
Obtained: -chest in one of the houses in Dalaam
-Dalaam Restaurant
The Jar of Delisauce works well with any food item, but it's much more
expensive ($300) than other condiments ($2 to $4). Good items to use
condiments with are Rock Candies and PP recovery items such as Magic
Truffles.

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
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 find more food. Head
southeast.
Climb the rope to the top and begin meditating. Don't touch the control
pad while sitting. Poo stops his training if you do, and you'll have to
talk to the old man back in the Palace and start all over again.
Continue to meditate and a spirit will eventually appear and test Poo.
Answer "yes" to all of its questions to complete the trial. If you answer
"no" to any of them, you'll have to talk to the old man back in the Palace
and start again.
With the training complete, return to the Palace and talk to the old man.
Poo gains a few levels and teleports to Summers to join Ness.
b)The Fourth Party Member
There are a few things you should know about Poo before taking him into
battle. First, most food items recover only about 6 of his HP. Only
medicinal items, such as the Cup of Lifenoodles, and PP recovery items
work normally, but 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, equipping the same weapons and armor the other party members use
actually decreases Poo's stats. All of Poo's equipment is either found in
gift boxes or dropped by enemies. These items are:
Weapon: Sword of Kings (dropped by a later enemy; can be hard to get)
Body: Cloak of Kings (gift box; found before Eighth Sanctuary Cave)
Arms: Bracer of Kings (gift box; found in Sixth Sanctuary Cave)
Other: Diadem of Kings (gift box; found in Seventh Sanctuary Cave)

powerful item that can inflict more damage than Jeff's "shoot" for almost
the rest of the game. Plus, it can never miss, making Jeff practically
immune to crying.

Comments: The chance that this attack will poison its target seems to
be much lower (possibly 0%) when it hits with a SMAAAASH!!.
-Has a big grin on its face
Effect: none
Strategy
Before starting the battle, give your fastest party member some food and
make sure everyone has at least 150 HP. Keeping everyone's HP above 150
should give you enough time to recover someone mortally wounded before
the HP counter reaches 0.
Have Paula and Poo use their strongest Freeze attack and Jeff use up any
Big Bottle Rockets he has to defeat the Plague Rat of Doom quickly.
-Ness: PSI Rockin[beta]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] or [gamma] if HP falls to 150 or
lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] 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
-Paula: Freeze[gamma]
-Jeff: (first few turns) Big Bottle Rocket
(subsequent turns) "shoot"
-Poo: Freeze[gamma]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] 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
d)Stinky Ghost
Vulnerable: Fire, Flash, Paralysis, Hypnosis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 50~80 HP (Ness)
40~65 HP (Paula)
50~80 HP (Jeff)
120~170 HP (Poo)
-Possess you in a frightening manner
Effect: possesses the target with a Tiny Li'l Ghost
-Vent a terrible odor
Effect: reduces the target's Offense by about 6%
-Has a big grin on his face
Effect: none
Strategy
Use Paralysis[alpha] in the first round. If the Stinky Ghost appears in
a group, Paralyze it and defeat all other enemies first. If you want to
inflict extra damage, both Fire and Freeze are effective.
-Ness: (first turn) Paralysis[alpha]
(subsequent turns) "bash"
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
-Poo: "bash"
e)Shattered Man
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Attacks
-Standard attack
Damage: 65~90 HP (Ness)
65~90 HP (Paula)
65~90 HP (Jeff)
180~190 HP (Poo)
-Growl and lunge forward
Damage: 160~200 HP (Ness)
170~215 HP (Paula)
170~215 HP (Jeff)
250~315 HP (Poo)
-Give you a great big hug
Effect: solidify a single target
-Reach out with its icy hand
Effect: solidify a single target
Strategy
Have Paula use Freeze[gamma] and Poo use Freeze[beta] to end the battle
in one or two rounds. The Slime Generator seems to work pretty well
against the Shattered Man and can prevent this enemy from attacking at
all.
-Ness: "bash"
Paralysis[alpha]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] 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
-Paula: (first round) Freeze[gamma]
(subsequent rounds) "bash"
-Jeff: Slime Generator
-Poo: Freeze[beta]
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 150 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[alpha] 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
a)Sailing to Scaraba
You can go record the Fifth and Sixth Sanctuary Melodies once Poo joins
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.
You should go to Scaraba first if you could not afford the Big League Bat
and the Platinum Band in Summers. You can also buy a Broken Cannon (32 IQ
needed) so Jeff can repair it into the Spectrum Beam. Assuming Ness and
Paula are equipped with the Night and Flame Pendants, you can also buy a
Crystal Charm for Jeff to increase his Speed by 15. This Speed increase
can be useful for recovering someone mortally wounded in upcoming boss
fights if you give Jeff some food.
If you decide to go to Scaraba, teleport to Fourside first and buy a
couple of Big Bottle Rockets at the Department Store if Jeff doesn't have
any. You might want to order a Large Pizza and give it to Ness as well
(enter a Mach Pizza store in Twoson or Threed to learn their phone
number). If you have a Bag of Dragonite, give it to Poo.
Be at max HP/PP. Talk to one of the sailors in Toto east of Summers to set
sail for Scaraba.
On the way, the ship is attacked by the Kraken. Use your most powerful
attacks on the sea monster to end the battle in 1 or 2 rounds (it has
about 1000 HP). Have Ness use a Large Pizza in the first round just in
case everyone gets injured.
See the section "5.Sailing to Scaraba" for more details on the Kraken.
b)Fifth Sanctuary Melody
Go to the Museum in Summers and pay the $12 admission fee.
Go to the second floor and talk to the man standing in front of the door.
There are two enemies in the next room that have high Offense, so be near
max HP before entering. They can be easily defeated with Freeze or
Paralysis.
NOTE: Leave one of the enemies alive to see a strange glitch at the end of
the game.
"Check" the sign in front of the Hieroglyphs and attempt to leave the
room. The man stops the party and gives them the Hieroglyph Copy, an item
that repeats everything written on the Hieroglyphs when "used." Keep it
for future reference.
Answer the phone as you exit the museum. Teleport to Fourside.
If you didn't buy a Broken Cannon in Scaraba, buy a Broken Gadget from the
guy with a mohawk in northeast Fourside. Teleport to Saturn Valley to have
Jeff repair it into the Double Beam (34 IQ needed).
Enter the Fourside Museum and talk to the man blocking the door on the
left side of the Museum. He explains he will show his "extraordinary"
thing in exchange for an 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 receive the Signed Banana.
c)Fifth Sanctuary Sewer Enemies
Before going to the Museum, buy a couple of Big Bottle Rockets from the
Department Store if Jeff doesn't have any. Return to Mr. Spoon in the
Museum and "use" the Signed Banana to gain access to the sewers underneath
Fourside.
If you don't want to spend time leveling up Poo, you'll have to be
aggressive with your attacks to prevent Poo from being KO'd. Use Freeze
[gamma] against the Deadly Mouse, Freeze[beta] against the Filthy Attack
Roach, and Paralysis[alpha] against the Stinky Ghost to quickly defeat or
immobilize the enemies here. None of the enemies have PP you can drain
with PSI Magnet, but there is a Magic Butterfly room in the second section
of the sewer.
d)Through the Sewers
To the right of the entrance is a Broken Iron. Take it if Jeff doesn't
have the Slime Generator.
Walk left from the entrance, down the ladder into the water, and all the
way east into the next part of the sewers.
There is a Magic Butterfly room near the middle of the second section. If
the party is running low on PP, get out of the water at the east end of
this area, walk west, and enter the door. Repeatedly reenter this room as
much as you need to recover HP/PP.
There is also a trash can to the west of the butterfly room containing a
Rust Promoter DX; it can be useful against the many metallic enemies that
appear later (though it doesn't work on Starmen).
Walk east and enter the third and final part of the sewer. The door here
leads to a trash can containing a Broken Bazooka, which can be repaired
into the Heavy Bazooka (45 IQ needed). The Heavy Bazooka can inflict more
damage than Jeff's "shoot" for almost the rest of the game, so be sure to
get it.
e)Sanctuary Boss
Before talking to the Shining Spot, give your fastest party member some
food and make sure everyone 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 everyone'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 strongest Freeze attack and Jeff
use up any Big Bottle Rockets he has. You should hopefully be able to win
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
that opens the Sixth Sanctuary Cave in Dalaam. Obtain it and head back to
the entrance of the museum (teleport can't be used by the Sanctuary spot).
Before teleporting, go to the Department Store to replenish Jeff's supply
of Big Bottle Rockets.

make sure everyone has at least 150 HP. Give Paula the Franklin Badge if
she doesn't have it. Use Paula and Poo's strongest Freeze attacks, while
Jeff uses up any Big Bottle Rockets he has. You should hopefully win in
about two rounds.
Have Ness use his strongest Flash attack in each round. Flash[beta] has
a 25% chance of either instantly defeating or paralyzing Thunder and
Storm. Flash[gamma] and [omega] have a 37.5% and 50% chance of causing
either respectively.

WALKTHROUGH
a)Feed the Rabbit Statues
NOTE: The Sixth Sanctuary Melody does not have to be recorded now. If you
want, the party can talk to the sailor in Toto and set sail for
Scaraba instead.
Before going to Dalaam, buy a couple of Big Bottle Rockets at Fourside for
Jeff if he does not have any.
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 to make them disappear.
b)Sixth Sanctuary Cave Enemies
If Poo is at a low level (level 30 or so), you might want him to "defend"
when facing the Tangoo or the Kiss of Death to protect him from their
standard attacks. Poo's standard attack isn't likely to inflict much
damage to any enemy, and he can suffer over 100 HP of damage from physical
attacks. If you want to play more offensively, Poo's Freeze[alpha]
inflicts decent damage to any enemy in the cave.
The other two enemies in the cave--the Thunder Mite and the Conducting
Menace--use only PSI attacks, and "defend" doesn't protect Poo from them.
Luckily, the Thunder Mite is easy to defeat and Poo can safely "bash" it.
The Conducting Menace is stronger, and Poo should always use Freeze[alpha]
to deal effective damage.
c)Sixth Sanctuary Cave
Enter the cave, climb up the first couple of ropes you see, and walk west
until you see a hole. Fall through the hole and open the gift box at the
bottom to get 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 over.
Open the gift box at the bottom of the hole to find a Rock Candy, an item
that increases its user's Speed, Guts, Vitality, IQ, or Luck by 1. Don't
use this item unless you have a Jar of Delisauce or a Sugar Packet because
using the Rock Candy with either condiment boosts the stat increase to 2.
To apply a condiment, simply place the condiment and the Rocky Candy in
the same person's inventory and use the Rock Candy.
NOTE: There is a glitch in the game that lets you use a Rock Candy an
infinite number of times. See starmen.net for details.
Fall through the next hole.
d)Sanctuary Boss
Walk to the left to reach the Shining Spot. Before talking to it, give
some food to your fastest party member and make sure everyone has over 150
HP. Give the Franklin Badge to Paula if she doesn't have it.
The Sanctuary boss, Thunder and Storm, has some pretty powerful attacks
that can KO someone in 1 hit. Its "summon a storm" attack is equivalent to
Flash[omega] and can KO a few party members, and its "intertwine" attack
can inflict up to 400 HP of damage to a single target.
Use Paula and Poo's strongest Freeze attacks and use up any Big Bottle
Rockets Jeff has. You should hopefully be able to win in two rounds.
Have Ness use his strongest Flash attack in each round. Flash[beta] has a
25% chance of either instantly defeating or paralyzing Thunder and Storm.
Flash[gamma] and [omega] have a 37.5% and 50% chance of causing either
respectively.
After defeating Thunder and Storm, record the Sixth Sanctuary Melody,
walk back into the cave, and fall through the hole to the right.
Open the gift box at the bottom to find the Bracer of Kings and equip this
on Poo's arms (Poo should keep the bracer on his arms for the rest of the
game).
Continue moving forward to reach the entrance. Rest at the Palace if you
need to and teleport to Summers (or Scaraba).
NOTE: (G. Pilon sent the following tip) An easy way to level up is to exit
and reenter the Sixth Sanctuary Cave and defeat the lone enemy that
appears near the entrance. The enemy tries to run away if you've
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.

a)Kraken
Recommended Level: 42
Attacks
-Generate a tornado
Damage: 130~190 HP (Ness)
170~210 HP (Paula)
170~210 HP (Jeff)
190~250 HP (Poo)
Comments: This attack damages the entire party.
-Breathe fire
Damage: 180~300 HP, to everyone
-Crashing boom bang attack
Effect: summons 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Flash[beta]
Effect: might cause crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an instant KO
-Emit a pale green light
Effect: resets any stats changes and removes all shields
Strategy
Try to defeat the Kraken in 1 or 2 rounds (it has about 1000 HP). Use
Paula and Poo's strongest Freeze attacks and any Big Bottle Rockets Jeff
has. If you have a Bag of Dragonite, give it to Poo.
The Kraken's fire and tornado attacks inflict heavy damage to the entire
party, making recovery difficult. If you want to play it safe, order a
Large Pizza and have Ness use it in the first round. Ness tends to have
low Speed and will likely go after the Kraken attacks.
-Ness: PSI Rockin[beta]
PSI Rockin[gamma], if learned
(first turn) Large Pizza
-Paula: Freeze[gamma]
-Jeff: Big Bottle Rocket
-Poo: Lifeup[beta] on self, if at a low level
Freeze[gamma]
Bag of Dragonite
WALKTHROUGH
a)Sailing to Scaraba
Once Poo has joined the party, you can talk to the sailor in Toto and set
sail for Scaraba. Be at max HP/PP and carry two Big Bottle Rockets in
Jeff's inventory before setting sail. If you have a Bag of Dragonite, give
it to Poo. If you want to play it safe, order a Large Pizza and give it to
Ness (enter a Mach Pizza store in Twoson or Threed to learn their phone
number).
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 offers passage to Scaraba for $20/person. Answer "yes"
when prompted when you are ready.
During the voyage, the ship is attacked by the Kraken. Try to end this
fight in 1 or 2 rounds (the Kraken has about 1000 HP). Use your strongest
Freeze attacks and any Big Bottle Rockets and Bags of Dragonite you have.
The Kraken's attacks can inflict heavy damage to the entire party, making
recovery difficult. If Ness has a Large Pizza, have him use it in the
first round. Ness tends to have low Speed and is likely to go after the
Kraken attacks.

Lucky Coin (nothing)
ITEMS
a)Bottle of DXwater
Use: recovers about 40 PP for Poo; recovers 1 PP for Ness and Paula
Obtained: merchant near the Pyramid ($198 each)
Conserving PP can be difficult in the Pyramid. Buy a couple of Bottles of
DXwater and have Poo use Freeze, Lifeup, and Healing when possible to
prevent Ness and Paula from running out of PP.
b)Rain Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage from Freeze
by about 96%; Defense +15
Obtained: casket in Pyramid, in the room behind the Guardian General
If Ness and Paula are equipped with the Night and Flame Pendants, I
suggest you sell the Rain Pendant. The Rain Pendant isn't very useful
because only a few enemies use Freeze, and you should usually use PSI
Shield[sigma] to defend against Freeze anyway. The Speed boost provided by
the Crystal Charm is also more useful for Jeff because the damage
inflicted by Bottle Rockets depends on Jeff's Speed (source: starmen.net),
and the Crystal Charm allows Jeff to attack before most enemies.
If you're worried about Freeze, here is a list of later enemies that can
use that move:
--Lesser Mook (Winters/Southern Scaraba)
--Manly Fish's Brother (Deep Darkness)
--Mook Senior (Stonehenge)
c)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 chosen
Obtained: merchant in Scaraba marketplace
The merchant who sells the Snake Bag reduces 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.

worry about.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the High-Class UFO in about 2 rounds using
standard attacks. This enemy always has a Shield up from the beginning
of the battle.
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.

e)Master Criminal Worm
A victory against the Master Criminal Worm yields enough experience points
to almost always level up someone. This enemy looks like a small red worm
outside of battle. (See the video walkthrough for ways to find this
enemy.)
The Master Criminal Worm appears rarely and always moves away from the
party, allowing you to easily approach it from behind and get an instant
victory. On the off chance you get into a fight with this enemy, use
Freeze[gamma] to defeat it in 1 hit. This enemy has very high Speed and
uses only Fire[alpha] and [beta].

description in the battle dialogue window.
-Coil around you and attack
Effect: solidify a single target
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Lethal Asp Hieroglyph in 1 or 2 rounds
using standard attacks. A hit from Freeze[beta] and a standard attack
from Ness or Jeff should also defeat this enemy. If this enemy appears
with a Petrified Royal Guard, paralyze the Royal Guard and defeat the
Asp first.
Asps and Guardian Hieroglyphs that emerge from walls always seem to
fight alone. You can avoid fighting groups of enemies by engaging a
Hieroglyph on a wall first.
-Ness: "bash"

Strategy
Use Paralysis[alpha] in the first round or Jeff's Slime Generator in

appears in a group, paralyze it in the first round and defeat all other
enemies first.
-Ness: (first turn) Paralysis[alpha]
(subsequent turns) "bash"
-Paula: "bash"
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Slime Generator, if enemy is not paralyzed
Hungry HP-Sucker, if enemy is paralyzed
-Poo: "bash"
WALKTHROUGH
a)Backtracking to Summers
Teleport to Summers and buy any Diamond Bands or Lucky Coins you couldn't
afford the first time you arrived in Summers if you have the money. Note
that you'll be able to find 1 Diamond Band near the end of the Pyramid.
The Big League Bat and the Platinum Band can be bought at a cheaper price
in Scaraba if you want them.
b)Shopping in Scaraba
Talk to the tool vendor in 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. The Broken Cannon can be repaired by Jeff
into the Spectrum Beam (32 IQ required), but don't buy it if Jeff has the
Heavy Bazooka. Buy a Crystal Charm for whomever it benefits.
Another item for sale is the Piggy Nose. This item can be used in Deep
Darkness, a swamp that the party will travel through after Scaraba. Magic
Truffles, an item that recovers about 80 PP, are hidden throughout Deep
Darkness, and the Piggy Nose leads you to them.
c)Entering the Pyramid
Head for the Pyramid to the southeast. The Pyramid is a pretty long
dungeon with lots of enemies, so you may want to bring an Exit Mouse with
you just in case; an Exit Mouse can still be obtained south of Onett or in
the Gold Mine in Dusty Dunes Desert. Bring the Slime Generator as well,
since it often works against the strongest enemies in the Pyramid.
Conserving PP can be difficult in the Pyramid, so buy a couple of Bottles
of DXwater from the vendor near the Pyramid. DXwater recovers about 40 PP
for Poo but only 1 PP for Ness and Paula. Have Poo use Freeze, Lifeup, and
Healing when possible to prevent Ness and Paula from running out of PP.
NOTE: Poo leaves the party for a while after you clear the Pyramid.
When you reach the front of the Pyramid, stand on the top circle. To open
the Pyramid, the circular switches have to be pressed in a certain order.
. The top . denotes the top circle and is the switch
that needs to be pressed first and last. The numbers
4 3 represent the other switches and denote the order in
which they must be pressed.
2 5
NOTE: If a dialogue window saying "....." pops up
when you step 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 over. Enter the Pyramid when
the entrance is opened.
d)Pyramid Enemies
Most of the Hieroglyphs on the walls come to life and attack. The Guardian
Hieroglyph can attack with Thunder and Flash and should always be defeated
first. If Poo's "bash" is weak, have him use Freeze[beta]. The Lethal Asp
Hieroglyph can inflict over 150 HP of damage with its biting attack, but
they can be defeated quickly with Freeze[beta].
The Hieroglyphs that emerge from walls always seem to fight alone. You can
avoid fighting groups of enemies by engaging a Hieroglyph on a wall first.
The strongest enemies in the Pyramid are the Fierce Shattered Man and the
Petrified Royal Guard, but they can be immobilized with Paralysis or
repeated use of the Slime Generator. Use the Slime Generator only when
facing 1 enemy because its target is randomly chosen.
e)Going Through the Pyramid
Keep moving forward into the Pyramid until the party enters a room with
a large sarcophagus in the center. The top door on the left leads to a Bag
of Dragonite and a dead end. The item is two rooms away and likely guarded
by some enemies. Enter the door on the right to proceed.
There are a Speed Capsule and a Cup of Lifenoodles a bit further into the
Pyramid. Use the Speed Capsule right away on someone (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 to fight the Guardian General.
Use the Slime Generator in each round to prevent the Guardian General from
attacking. Have Paula and Poo use Freeze while Ness just bashes.
Once the Guardian General is defeated, enter the next room and step on the
tile with the thick outline to reveal a hole in the room with the large
sarcophagus.
Open the casket to find the Rain Pendant, an item that protects from
Freeze. If Ness and Paula are equipped with the Night and Flame Pendants,
I suggest you sell the Rain Pendant. Only a few enemies use Freeze, and
you should usually use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against Freeze anyway.
The Speed boost provided by the Crystal Charm is also more useful for Jeff
because the damage inflicted by Bottle Rockets depends on Jeff's Speed
(source: starmen.net) and the Crystal Charm allows Jeff to attack before
most enemies.
After stepping on the switch, return to the room with the sarcophagus and
fall through the hole. Approach the altar and "check" the Hawk Eye to take
it.
Go through the door on the right, walk up the stairs, and enter the next
room. Open the casket to obtain a Diamond Band. A Magic Butterfly often
spawns here, so exit and reenter this room until HP/PP are recovered. Fall
through the hole.
This is the last stretch of the Pyramid before the exit. Enter the door on
the right and walk through the hallway. Remember to engage the Hieroglyphs
on the wall to avoid fighting groups. Climb up the stairs to leave the
Pyramid.
The party emerges in Southern Scaraba. Before you can walk into the
desert, the old man from Dalaam appears and restores everyone's HP/PP. He
tells Poo to come with him to learn Starstorm. Poo complies and leaves.
NOTE: If Poo was carrying the Hawk Eye when he left, you should get a call
from Escargo Express telling you that they have it. Call Escargo
Express and request a delivery to get the Hawk Eye back.

Effect: render a single target unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
Comments: This attack has a pretty low success rate and is nothing to

you should be safe just using standard attacks. If you want to get rid
of its Shield, use the Neutralizer. Use Fire[gamma] when facing a group.

enemies have about the same Offense, but the Beautiful UFO is easier to
defeat.

f)Mystical Record, Scalding Coffee Cup, Worthless Protoplasm, Dali's Clock,
Cute Li'l UFO
Defeat the Scalding Coffee Cup 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, you should get a
phone call from Escargo Express telling you they have it. Call
Escargo Express and request a delivery to get the Hawk Eye back.
Talk to the native standing near the Pyramid exit to receive the Key to
the Tower.
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 shouldn't need to buy the
Crusher Beam.
This is the first place in the game where you can buy Multi Bottle
Rockets, an item that can inflict about 500 to 2000+ HP of damage
depending on its target's Speed. If you can't afford them now, you can buy
some from an arms dealer in a more convenient location in Deep Darkness,
the next area.
b)The Tower
Walk northwest from the Pyramid exit to find what looks like a large
statue. 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.
Defeat Scalding Coffee Cups first if they appear in a group.
Go a little into Dungeon Man until you see a telephone and a bench.
"Check" the bench to rest; if Jeff has any broken items he can repair,
repeatedly rest on the bench until he fixes them. To the left is a
Hospital, which can be helpful if you get diamondized here.
From the bench, walk east and then a little north to find three different
paths. 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 Cup
of Lifenoodles. Take the left path to proceed.
Walk forward to find another branch. The elevated path leads to a Snake
and a Super Plush Bear, an item that works like the Teddy Bear but has
about 500 HP. Take the lower path to proceed.
When you get to 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 more dangerous than the first because Lesser
Mooks lurk here. You should be able to defeat them in 1 or 2 rounds using
standard attacks, but use PSI Shield[sigma] to defend against Freeze when
facing more than one.
Walk all the way south along the right wall to get to the end of this
floor. If you explore a bit, you can find a bench and gift boxes
containing $10 and food.
It should be pretty easy to the top from here. Brick Road, the guy Jeff
met in Winters, is waiting for you.
After talking to him, walk south and fall through the "Return Hole" to
reach the first floor. Open the gift box on the way down to get an IQ
Capsule; I recommend you use it on Paula. Exit Dungeon Man.
c)Leaving Scaraba
Dungeon Man is now a part of your party. His standard attack can inflict
over 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. Go to
the southern end of Scaraba and walk past the trees growing on an isthmus.
Dungeon Man gets stuck in the trees, and the party goes on without it.
Walk to the eastern end of the narrow strip of land and talk to the native
standing there. Answer "yes" when prompted.
Return to Dungeon Man and talk to it. Go to the top of the tower.
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 to
end up in a previously unreachable part of the first floor.
Open the gift box here to obtain a Talisman Ribbon, armor for Paula.
Walk to the northwest corner of the first floor and "check" the yellow
submarine. The party carries it outside and departs for Deep Darkness.

ITEMS
a)Monkey's Love
Use: solidifies a single, random target in battle; can be used an
unlimited number of times
Obtained: a monkey in Deep Darkness, after teaching it how to teleport
The Monkey's Love can be obtained by teaching Teleport to one of the
monkeys found on the grassy area at the beginning of the swamp. This item
is equivalent to the Slime Generator but can be used by anyone. Give this
to Poo when he returns.
b)Magic Truffle
Use: recovers about 80 PP; 160 PP with a Ketchup Packet or a Jar of
Delisauce
Obtained: scattered throughout Deep Darkness
There are 5 Magic Truffles hidden throughout Deep Darkness. I give rough
directions to each Magic Truffle in the walkthrough, but if you have
trouble finding them, buy a Piggy Nose at Scaraba and "use" it when you're
close to a Truffle. "Check" the area to pick up the Truffle.
Only 6 Magic Truffles can be found in the game. To make the most of them,
use them with a Ketchup Packet to double their effectiveness. To apply a
Ketchup Packet, place the condiment and a Magic Truffle in the same
person's inventory. The Ketchup Packet is automatically applied when you
use the Magic Truffle.
c)Rock Candy
Use: increases Speed, Guts, Vitality, IQ, or Luck by 1 (or 2, with a
condiment)
Obtained: gift box just before Master Barf
Use the Rock Candy with a Sugar Packet or a Jar of Delisauce to boost the
stat increase to 2. To use a condiment, place the condiment and the Rock
Candy in the same person's inventory and use the Rock Candy. The most
convenient place to buy a Sugar Packet is Scaraba.
NOTE: There is a bug in the game that lets you 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.
d)Casey Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +125; accuracy of 25%
Obtained: Master Barf
The Casey Bat is too unreliable for general use.

Strategy
Use a Multi Bottle Rocket to win in 1 round. In case you're wondering,
the Jar of Fly Honey does nothing to Master Barf.
If you don't have a Multi Bottle Rocket, use Freeze[gamma] or [omega]
and PSI Rockin[beta]. If Jeff starts crying or feels nauseous and

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
NOTE 1: If Poo was carrying the Hawk Eye when he left, you should get a
phone call from Escargo Express telling you that they have it.
Call Escargo Express and request a delivery to get the Hawk Eye
back.
NOTE 2: The party takes 2 HP of damage about every 5 seconds while walking
through the deepest parts of the swamp. If you see red flashes at
a faster rate than this, it's because each person is taking damage
at different times.
You can avoid damage and save time by traveling through the deep
parts of the swamp with Teleport[alpha]. This method takes a bit
of practice to use, however, because it can be hard to avoid
obstacles at high speed and you might accidentally teleport away
from Deep Darkness.
NOTE 3: There are 5 Magic Truffles (recovers 80 PP) hidden throughout Deep
Darkness. To help you find them, buy the Piggy Nose in Scaraba and
use it when you're somewhat close to a Truffle to pinpoint its
location. "Check" the area to take the Truffle. I give rough
directions to each Magic Truffle in the walkthrough below.
Check the bird to call Escargo Express and store the Key to the Tower and
the Hieroglyph Copy.
Walk into the swamp and go a little to the east. There is a Magic Truffle
to the left and a little bit south of the lone tree growing out of the
water. "Use" the Piggy Nose to the left of this tree to find the Magic
Truffle's exact location and "check" the spot to take it.
Walk all the way east and check behind the lone tree growing in the dirt
to find 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 to receive the
Monkey's Love, an item that can solidify a single random target in battle.
I usually give the Monkey's Love to Poo and have him use it when his
"bash" isn't effective.
To the left are a businessman and a doctor. Talk to the businessman to buy
some items or be treated by the doctor (if you talk directly to the
doctor, he doesn't do anything for you). Buy 1 or 2 Secret Herbs if Ness
hasn't learned Healing[gamma] (level 53) in case someone gets paralyzed in
the swamp.
The doctor can heal any status effect, but you can avoid paying him by
selecting "let him pay" when the businessman tells you about the $500 fee.
If Jeff isn't carrying at least 2 Multi Bottle Rockets, talk to the arms
dealer and buy one or two before venturing into the swamp. This is the
most convenient place to buy Multi Bottle Rockets; teleport back to Deep
Darkness whenever you need more.
To the south is a submerged man. This is Deep Darkness's ATM, but he
charges a usage fee equal to the amount you withdraw.
b)Crossing the Swamp
Walk south into the swamp and "use" the Hawk Eye while in the darkness to
reveal your surroundings.
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 Magic Truffle is hidden northwest of the gift box. Go northwest and then
a little to the left along the edge of the trees. When the line of trees
drops down a bit, "check" the spot to take the Magic Truffle.
From the gift box containing the Beef Jerky, go further west to find an IQ
Capsule. Either use it on Paula or save it for Poo, who will be returning
soon.
Go back a little to the east and then turn south. There is a crashed
helicopter on a small piece of dry land. Open the gift box here to obtain
a Cup of Lifenoodles.
To the west is a deep part of the swamp with two lone trees growing near
the middle of the area. There is a Magic Truffle to the northwest of the
left-hand tree.
Walk west onto the patch of dry land. Open the gift box to find 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 to increase a
random stat by 2. If you don't have either condiment, you can buy a Sugar
Packet in Scaraba later.
From the gift box containing the Rock Candy, walk a little south, east,
and then north into a narrow path of deep water. Be near max HP before
talking to the monster.
Although Master Barf is Master Belch redux, the Jar of Fly Honey no longer
works to distract him. Use a Multi Bottle Rocket to win in 1 round.
Master Barf drops the Casey Bat when defeated. This weapon is the
strongest weapon for Ness in the game, but it has an accuracy of just 25%.
Walk north to reach another wide part of the swamp. There is one last
Magic Truffle here but it's a little hard to explain where it is. There
are two floating logs in this area. From the top log, walk directly north
until you're up against the trees. The Magic Truffle is a bit to the left
from this spot behind a tree.
If you encounter a Manly Fish's brother at this point, go all out with
Fire and Starstorm since you're near the end of the swamp.
Walk west and onto dry land. Enter the cave 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 spring 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 find the Death Ray, a weapon for Jeff.
If you talk to the village chief, the Tenda with the horns, it mentions a
book that can help the Tendas overcome their shyness. Keep this book in
mind and leave the village.
Outside, the party gets a phone call from Apple Kid. Teleport to Winters.

ITEMS
a)Sword of Kings
Use: weapon for Poo; Offense +30
Obtained: dropped by Starman Super
The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of dropping 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 got 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 disappear once the boss here is defeated, and the Sword of
Kings can't be found anywhere else.
b)Saturn Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +90, Luck +40
Obtained: Mr. Saturn inside Stonehenge, after the Starman Deluxe is
defeated
Talk to the rescued Mr. Saturn after defeating the Starman Deluxe to
receive the Saturn Ribbon.
c)Broken Harmonica
Use: repaired by Jeff into the Baddest Beam (Offense +98)
Obtained: gift box, in the hi-tech part of the base
IQ Required: 55
You should not need the Baddest Beam if Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka.
d)Broken Trumpet
Use: repaired into Defense Shower, a tool for Jeff
Obtained: gift box, in the hi-tech part of the base
IQ Required: 40
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.

Fire[gamma] if Ness and Paula miss. Always defeat this enemy first.
The Mook Senior appears only in the early maze-like sections of
Stonehenge.

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. This move is probably just a waste of a turn.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Starman in 1 or 2 rounds with standard
attacks, provided it does not use Shield or "guard." Use PSI Magnet
against this enemy to recover PP. Defeat the Starman before only Atomic
Power Robots.
You can often get green swirls against this enemy by waiting until it
teleports close to the party and approaching it from the sides or the
front.
-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
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
PSI Magnet
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
PSI Magnet
recover Ness with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 70 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower
e)Starman Deluxe
Recommended Level: 53
Attacks
-Fire a beam
Damage: 110~160 HP (Ness)
100~140 HP (Paula)
110~160 HP (Jeff)
150~200 HP (Poo)
-Starstorm[alpha]
Damage: 300~435 HP to all
Comments: Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against
this attack. Use PSI Shield[omega] instead if Paula has
learned it (level 60) because the reflection damage can be
enough to defeat the Starman Deluxe in 1 turn.
-PSI Shield[beta]
Effect: reflects all damage from offensive PSI moves
Comments: The Starman Deluxe is protected with a PSI Shield from the
start of the fight. If you don't have a Multi Bottle Rocket,
eliminate the Starman Deluxe's shield with a Shield Killer or
Thunder before using other PSI attacks.
-Call for help
Effect: either a Starman or a Starman Super might join the battle
Comments: The Starman Deluxe's cohorts disappear when the Starman Deluxe
is defeated. Don't use PSI Rockin or Starstorm if a Starman
Super appears because it's protected with a reflecting PSI
shield.
Strategy
Make sure everyone is near max HP before starting this fight. If Jeff
has a Multi Bottle Rocket, you should be able to win in 1 or 2 rounds.
Use PSI Shield[sigma] or [omega] just in case the Starman Deluxe uses
Starstorm while Ness and Poo use their standard attacks. Avoid using PSI
attacks because this boss has a reflecting PSI shield from the start of
the fight.
If Jeff doesn't have any Multi Bottle Rockets, eliminate the Starman
Deluxe's reflecting PSI shield with Thunder or the Shield Killer (don't
use the Neutralizer; Starstorm is painful). Use PSI Rockin and Freeze
while the Starman is unshielded.
If you're low on PP, you can try this surprisingly effective strategy:
have both Jeff and Poo use the Slime Generator and Monkey's Love in each
round while Ness and Paula "bash." The Slime Generator and Monkey's Love
seem to have a decent success rate against the Starman Deluxe and can
prevent it from doing anything. If you want to use PSI, have Paula use
Thunder until the Starman's reflecting PSI shield is eliminated.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta] or [gamma], while the Starman is unshielded
recover with Lifeup if someone's HP falls to 150 or lower
-Paula: (first turn) PSI Shield[sigma] or [omega]
"bash", while the Starman Deluxe is shielded
Freeze[omega], while the Starman Deluxe is unshielded
-Jeff: (first turn) Multi Bottle Rocket
(first turn) Shield Killer, if a Bottle Rocket is not available
and the Starman Deluxe is shielded
"shoot"
Slime Generator
-Poo: Thunder[gamma], if a Bottle Rocket is not available and the
Starman Deluxe is shielded
Freeze[gamma], while the Starman Deluxe is unshielded
"bash"
Monkey's Love
recover with Lifeup if someone's 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]
Effect: can cure almost any status effect or revive a defeated enemy to
full HP
-PSI Shield[beta]
Effect: reflects all damage from offensive PSI moves
-Guard
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50% for one round
-Call for help
Effect: a Starman might join the battle
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Starman Super in 1 or 2 rounds using
standard attacks, provided it does not "defend." Defeat this enemy first
if it appears in a group. Avoid using PSI attacks because this enemy is
protected with a reflecting PSI shield from the start of a fight.
The Starman Super has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Sword of Kings, the
only effective weapon for Poo in the game. The Sword of Kings can be
found only in Stonehenge, and all enemies in the base disappear once the
boss here is defeated.
You can often get green swirls against this enemy by waiting until the
Starman Super teleports close to the party and approaching it from the
sides or the front.
-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
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
-Poo: "bash"
PSI Magnet
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.
Also, if both Ness and Poo haven't learned Healing[gamma] (at level 53 and
36 respectively), bring a couple of Secret Herbs in case someone gets
diamondized (you can buy some from the businessman in Deep Darkness or in
Saturn Valley). If you didn't obtain any Magic Truffles in Deep Darkness,
buy a couple of Bottles of DXwater from the businessman as well. (Better
yet, find some Magic Truffles.)
Teleport to Snow Wood Boarding House in Winters. Start walking south to
Dr. Andonuts's Lab.
NOTE: Take the Pencil Eraser with you to eliminate a pencil statue on the
way to Dr. Andonuts's Lab. This should be the last pencil statue in
the game; give the Pencil Eraser to Escargo Express after this.
The new enemies in Winters aren't too tough and can be defeated with "auto
fight" if they appear alone. (Be warned, however, that the Lesser Mook can
use Freeze and cause diamondization.) A hit from Starstorm and a standard
attack should defeat any enemy you face. Don't worry about conserving PP
because you can still rest in a couple of tents in northern Winters.
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 reach Dr. Andonuts's Lab.
Talk to the Mouse inside the Lab to receive the Eraser Eraser. "Check" the
Instant Revitalizing Device to recover before going to Stonehenge.
b)The Stonehenge Base: Overview
The Stonehenge Base is a pretty long area full of enemies. If you didn't
bring any Magic Truffles or Bottles of DXwater, use PSI Magnet against
Starmen and Starman Supers. Have Poo use Lifeup and Healing instead of
Ness for the most part since Poo can use PSI Magnet.
The first part of Stonehenge is a maze-like cave full of Mook Seniors,
Starmen, and Atomic Power Robots. Keep everyone's HP above 150 before
engaging any enemies in case someone gets hit by the Mook Senior's Freeze.
When facing only one Mook Senior, take advantage of the rolling HP counter
and keep attacking even if someone gets mortally wounded. Use PSI Shield
[sigma] only if a Mook Senior appears in a group or if someone is low on
HP. Use Healing[gamma] or a Secret Herb to cure anyone diamondized, and
always defeat Mook Seniors first when facing a group.
Defeat the Atomic Power Robot last because it explodes when defeated. Use
Freeze[beta], the Slime Generator, or the Monkey's Love to prevent it from
replenishing its HP. You can use Poo's "mirror" against this enemy to
recover your HP without using PP, though this method requires some
patience to use.
The Starman isn't very powerful and is a good target for PSI Magnet. When
you see one on the field, wait for it to teleport close to the party and
approach it from the sides or the front; this seems to maximize the
chances of getting a green swirl.
c)Stonehenge Base
"Use" the Eraser Eraser on the eraser statue near the entrance to
Stonehenge to eliminate it. Give the Eraser Eraser to Escargo Express
after this.
From the eraser statue walk south and through the cave opening into the
second area.
Two paths lead out of the second area. They both take you to the same
place, but the right path may be a little shorter.
Open the gift box in the third area to get a Spicy Jerky, a food item that
recovers about 250 HP. Go east into the next area.
The path to the northeast in the fourth area leads to a Guts Capsule, an
item I recommend you use on Ness. (All enemies in Stonehenge disappear
once the boss here is defeated, making it easier to get any gift boxes you
skip.) A Magic Butterfly seems to always appear in the open area when
approached from the path leading to the Guts Capsule, but it's not very
easy to camp because enemies spawn here as well. Take the path to the
south to proceed.
You'll come across another fork in the fifth area. The top path leads to a
gift box containing a Cup of Lifenoodles and the right path leads to the
next section of Stonehenge.
Mook Seniors no longer appear in this part of Stonehenge, but you'll start
encountering Starman Supers. Always defeat this enemy first with standard
attacks because they can revive defeated cohorts with Healing[omega] and
are protected with a reflecting PSI shield from the start of a fight.
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 got 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 disappear once the boss
here is defeated, and the Sword of Kings can't be found anywhere
else.
Walk to the right from the entrance to find a Broken Harmonica, an item
Jeff can repair into the Baddest Beam (55 IQ required). You likely won't
need this item if Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka. Walk down the ladder in
front of the entrance to proceed.
Walk to the east and open the gift box to get a PSI Caramel.
Continue east to reach a room where some Exit Mice live. An Exit Mouse is
convenient for returning to the entrance after defeating the boss here. Go
through the next door.
There is a new enemy lurking in this maze-like section of the base, but it
can be defeated with standard attacks. All the way to the right of the
entrance is a Broken Trumpet, an item Jeff can repair into the Defense
Shower. The Defense Shower increases the entire party's Defense by about
6% per use in battle, but it's not very useful.
Walk north from the entrance and follow the path to the northeast. At the
end of this path are two gift boxes containing a Pixie's Bracelet and a
Speed Capsule. Equip the Pixie's Bracelet on Paula and use the Speed
Capsule on Jeff or Poo. Enter the door to the east.
The next room is filled with tubes holding abducted people, including the
Apple Kid.
d)Starman Deluxe
Enter the next room to encounter the Starman Deluxe. Make sure everyone is
near max HP before talking to it.
With a Multi Bottle Rocket, you should be able to win in 1 or 2 rounds.
Use PSI Shield[sigma] or [omega] (level 60) in case the Starman Deluxe
uses Starstorm while Ness and Poo use their standard attacks. Avoid using
PSI attacks because this boss has a reflecting PSI shield from the start
of the fight.
If you don't have any Multi Bottle Rockets, eliminate the Starman Deluxe's
shield with Thunder or the Shield Killer before using PSI Rockin and
Freeze. (Don't use the Neutralizer; Starstorm is painful.)
The base shuts down after the Starman Deluxe is defeated, and all enemies
disappear from the area. Enter the previous room and talk to the Mr.
Saturn to receive the Saturn Ribbon, an item for Paula. If Paula had the
Souvenir Coin, equip it on Jeff.
Next, talk to the Apple Kid about the Overcoming Shyness Book. Open any
gift boxes you skipped on your way back to the entrance or use an Exit
Mouse.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
2.Overcoming Shyness
WALKTHROUGH
a)The Shyness Book
After defeating the Starman Deluxe and talking to Apple Kid, teleport to
Onett and go to the Library.
"Check" the bookshelves on the first floor of the Library for the Shyness
Book. The book seems to always be on the left-most section of the
bookshelf in the room on the right.
Teleport to Tenda Village and "use" the Shyness Book next to the Chief.
The Chief reads the book to everyone in the village and gives the party
Tendakraut, an item that will help you later.
A voice takes over and starts talking to you, the player. Just as Tony
previously did in Toto, this voice asks for your name. Your name appears a
few times at the end of the game.
EXTRAS
a)Stuff To Do in Tenda Village
Purpose: -receive a Bag of Dragonite
-read some text that talks about the party's adventure
-trade Horns of Life for other items
Now that the Tendas aren't shy, you can do a few new things here. First,
talk to the Tenda chief to receive a Bag of Dragonite, an item that
inflicts about 250~400 HP of Fire damage to all enemies on screen (Thanks
to: C.V. Reynolds).
Next, talk to the villager near the Chief and answer "yes" to its offer. A
funky background fills the screen and scrolling text talks about the
party's adventure (this is similar to what happens when you drink coffee
in Saturn Valley). Like before, this text is long and you'll have to sit
through the whole thing once it starts.
There is also a Tenda in the northwest corner of the Village who trades
items for Horns of Life. Each time the Tenda receives a Horn of Life, he
gives whatever item is at the top of his list. Here is a list of what each
item does:
Plain Roll: recovers about 80 HP
Plain Yogurt: recovers about 160 HP
Plain Roll: recovers about 80 HP
Spicy Jerky: recovers about 250 HP
Bag of Dragonite: inflicts about 250~400 HP of fire damage to all
enemies on screen
Talisman Coin: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +60,
Luck +25
Hall of Fame Bat: weapon for Ness; Offense +62
(Total value: $6674
Total cost: $12,460)
Horns of Life can be bought in Saturn Valley for $1780 each. The Bag of
Dragonite might be worth the cost, but the Talisman Coin and the Hall of
Fame Bat are quickly superseded by equipment sold in the next village.

ENEMIES
a)Conducting Spirit
Attacks
-Flash[alpha]
Effect: might cause crying or feeling strange
-Flash[beta]
Effect: might cause crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an instant KO
-Thunder[beta]
Effect: summon 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Thunder[gamma]
Effect: summon 3 lightning bolts
Damage: 115~280 HP per bolt
Strategy
Two hits from Freeze[beta] and a hit from Ness or Jeff should defeat the
Conducting Spirit. If 2 Conducting Spirits appear, consider using
Starstorm or Freeze[omega], and recover PP by using PSI Magnet[omega]
against Fobbies. Always defeat this enemy first.
-Ness: "bash"
recover anyone not carrying the Franklin badge with Lifeup if HP
falls to 150 or lower
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[beta], [gamma], or [omega]

b)Electro Specter (Sanctuary Boss)
Recommended Level: 56
Attacks
-Electrical shock attack
Effect: summons 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Hungry HP-Sucker
Effect: drains about 10~20% of all party members' HP and gives it to the
Electro Specter
Comments: This attack has a pretty low success rate and is nothing to
worry about.
-Neutralizer
Effect: resets any stats changes and removes everyone's shields
-Shield Killer
Effect: might remove any shield protecting a single target
Strategy
With only one attack that inflicts significant damage, the Electro
Specter is one of the easiest Sanctuary Bosses in the game. It's
protected with a reflecting PSI Shield from the start of the fight, so
use Jeff's Neutralizer or Shield Killer to eliminate it before using PSI
attacks.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta] or [gamma], if 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

-Standard attack
Damage: 40~60 HP (Ness)
10~20 HP (Paula)
10~20 HP (Jeff)
60~80 HP (Poo)

Effect: drains 2 to 8 PP from a single target
Comments: The Fobby can't use PSI for the first 4 rounds of battle.
-Brainshock[alpha]
Effect: might make a single target feel strange
-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 1 hit from Ness's "bash" or 2 hits from anyone else's standard
attack should defeat the Fobby. Try to defeat 2 Fobbies in one round by
having Ness and Poo target a different enemy from Paula and Jeff.
Use PSI Magnet[omega] or the Hungry HP-Sucker to recover some HP or PP.
This enemy is the best one to fight if you want to level up. Defeat the
Fobby last if it appears with anything else.
-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

50~80 HP (Jeff)
90~130 HP (Poo)
-Shield[beta]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50%; reflects damage
inflicted by any physical attack
-Disrupt your senses
Effect: renders a single target unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
Comments: This attack has a pretty low success rate and is nothing to
worry about.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Hyper Spinning Robo in 1 or 2 rounds
using standard attacks. If this enemy uses Shield[beta], eliminate the
shield with the Neutralizer or attack with Freeze[beta]. Defeat this
enemy after any Conducting Spirits.
-Ness: "bash"

-Start laughing maniacally
Effect: makes a single target feel strange
-Explode into bits (death action)
Damage: 150~400 HP
Peripheral Damage: 50~200 HP
Comments: A party member should suffer only about 50 HP of damage at
most if you defeat this enemy last and end the battle quickly.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Uncontrollable Sphere in 1 or 2 rounds
with standard attacks. Use PSI Shield[sigma] if you want to defend
against Fire. Defeat the Uncontrollable Sphere last if it appears in a
group.
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 for 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[beta] if HP falls to 120 or lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Lumine Hall
After curing the Tendas of their shyness, talk to the Tenda standing next
to a boulder in the southwest corner of Tenda Village. This Tenda is very
strong and lifts the rock, revealing a hole that leads to the Seventh
Sanctuary Cave.
There is a talking rock you'll have to talk to at the bottom of the hole.
More talking rocks can be found in the Sanctuary Cave, but none of them
say anything important.
b)Seventh Sanctuary Cave: Enemies
The enemies found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave are the Fobby, the
Uncontrollable Sphere, the Hyper Spinning Robo, and the Conducting Spirit.
Fobbies tend to be found on the upper level of the cave, while the other
enemies usually lurk on the lower level.
The Fobbies tend to attack in large groups and are the best enemies to
fight if you want to level up. Use PSI Magnet[omega] or the Hungry HP-
Sucker to recover from them.
The Conducting Spirit can use Flash[beta] and Thunder[gamma] and is the
most powerful enemy in the cave. Have both Paula and Poo use Freeze[beta]
and Ness or Jeff "bash" or "shoot" to defeat them in 1 round. Consider
using Freeze[omega] or Starstorm when facing 2 and recover PP by using PSI
Magnet[omega] against Fobbies. Always defeat Conducting Spirits first.
The Uncontrollable Sphere can use Fire[beta] and explodes when defeated.
Use PSI Shield[sigma] if you want to defend against Fire and always defeat
this enemy last.
The Hyper Spinning Robo is an easy enemy. Use Freeze[beta] 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 (65 IQ needed).
c)Seventh Sanctuary Cave
Walk as far west as you can from the entrance and go down the ladder to
find a Diadem of Kings and an IQ Capsule. Equip the Diadem on Poo and use
the IQ Capsule on Paula or Poo.
Go back towards the entrance and turn north at the fork (the nearby ladder
and hole lead to a Super Bomb). At the end of this path is a Luck Capsule.
Use it on whomever you want. Climb down the ladder near the gift box.
There is a gift box on the lower level of the cave containing a Rock
Candy. Use this item with a Sugar Packet or a Jar of Delisauce to increase
a random stat by 2 (condiments can be bought in Twoson or Scaraba).
There are two ladders leading out of the lower level, both of which lead
to the Shining Spot. The first ladder leads to a Cup of Lifenoodles and a
Luxury Jerky, a food item that recovers about 300 HP, but the path to the
boss is a little longer. There is a Bottle of DXwater (recovers 40 PP for
Poo) on the way to the other ladder.
Before talking to the Shining Spot, open the gift box near it to get the
Rabbit's Foot. This item can be very helpful against an enemy that appears
near the end of the game and should be given to Paula.
d)Sanctuary Boss
The Seventh Sanctuary Boss is the Electro Specter. With only one attack
that inflicts significant damage, the Electro Specter is one of the
easiest Sanctuary bosses in the game. It is protected with a reflecting
PSI shield from the start of the fight, so use Jeff's Neutralizer or
Shield Killer to eliminate it before using PSI.

ITEMS
a)Sea Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; protects from Fire, Freeze,
and Flash; Defense +20
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.
Equip the Sea Pendant on Ness before recording the last Sanctuary melody.
b)Cloak of Kings
Use: equip on "body" for Poo; Defense +20 and Speed +40
Obtained: gift box, northeast of the Eighth Sanctuary Cave
The Cloak of Kings can be found on the way to the Eighth Sanctuary Cave.
The Speed boost is especially helpful when you need to save someone
mortally wounded.
c)Magic Fry Pan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +50 and Guts +100
Obtained: Chomposaur
The Chomposaur has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Magic Fry Pan. The
Offense increase isn't the best and I don't think this weapon is worth
going out of your way to get, but it can increase Paula's chances of
getting SMAAAASH!! hits and surviving mortal blows.

start of a fight. Have Jeff use the Neutralizer (or the Shield Killer if
you put up a PSI shield) before using physical attacks.
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 isn't the best and I don't think this weapon is worth
going out of your way to get, but it can increase Paula's chances of

WALKTHROUGH
a)Features of the Underworld
There are 3 geysers located in the Underworld that erupt periodically.
There are Blue geysers located in the southeast and southwest corners of
the Underworld and a Red geyser directly north of a Tenda settlement. The
Blue ones completely recover HP/PP, and the Red one heals all status
effects and revives anyone unconscious. To recover on a geyser, simply
stand on top of one and wait for it to erupt.
The enemies found here are the Chomposaur, the Wetnosaur, and the Ego Orb.
All of these enemies can inflict heavy damage, so keep everyone's HP above
150 while in the Underworld.
The Chomposaur can use Fire[gamma] and is protected with a reflecting
physical shield from the start of a fight. Use PSI Shield[sigma] unless
both Paula and Jeff are protected from Fire, and have Paula and Poo use
Freeze[gamma] and [beta] respectively to defeat the Chomposaur in about 2
rounds.
The Wetnosaur is similar to the Chomposaur except it can't use PSI and
isn't protected with a shield. Use Freeze[gamma] and [beta] to defeat this
enemy in 1 or 2 rounds. The Ego Orb can be defeated in 1 round with Freeze
[alpha] and [beta].
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 isn't the best and I don't think it's worth going
out of your way to get, but it can increase Paula's chances of
getting a SMAAAASH!! hit and surviving a mortal blow.
b)Items in the Underworld
After falling into the Underworld, walk south into the area with less
trees and use Teleport[beta]. Select the "Underworld" to end up in a
little more convenient part of this large place.
To the left is a small enclosure with two Tendas (it's a little hard to
make them out, but they are Tendas) and a bird phone. From there you
should be able to see a small, white box. Walk to the other side of the
rock wall and "check" the box to get a Brain Food Lunch.
Directly to the east is a Horn of Life, an item equivalent to the Cup of
Lifenoodles. Walk along the upper side of the rock wall heading east to
reach it.
In the northeast corner of the Underworld is the Sea Pendant, an item that
protects from Fire, Freeze, and Flash. Obtain it and equip it on Paula. If
Paula had the Flame Pendant equipped, give that to Jeff. (Equip the Sea
Pendant on Ness just before recording the final Sanctuary melody.)
Directly west of the Sea Pendant is a Guts Capsule. Use it on Ness if you
get it.
You can also find a Cloak of Kings to the southwest, but save it for
later.
c)The Tenda Settlement
Near the center of the Underworld is a second village of Tendas. Approach
the gate to the village to enter.
There is a talking rock in this village that discusses the Eight Sanctuary
Spots. The rock basically summarizes the objective of Ness's quest and
doesn't need to be talked to.
There is a Tenda here who sells some strong equipment. Buy the Ultimate
Bat and the Holy Fry Pan for Ness and Paula and a Shiny Coin for whoever
needs it. There is another Tenda who acts like an ATM, but he charges a
usage fee if you withdraw money from him.

Effect: none
Strategy
This battle is divided between the Carbon Dog first and the Diamond Dog
second, with no break in-between. How you fight this battle depends on
whether you have a Multi Bottle Rocket or not:
WITH MULTI BOTTLE ROCKETS: Three Multi Bottle Rockets should be enough
to win this fight. The Diamond Dog is protected with a reflecting
physical shield when it appears, but don't bother using the Neutralizer
or the Shield Killer. Since Ness is usually slower than Jeff, have Ness
use Lifeup on Jeff in the same round Jeff fires a Multi Bottle Rocket to
keep him alive. If Ness goes before Jeff, have Poo save him. Note that
damage is reflected to Jeff if a Multi Bottle Rocket defeats the Carbon
Dog.
If you have only 1 or 2 Multi Bottle Rockets, save them for the Diamond
Dog if both Paula and Jeff are protected from Fire. If you aren't
protected from Fire, use a Multi Bottle Rocket against the Carbon Dog.
WITHOUT BOTTLE ROCKETS: Without Magic Truffles or Brain Food Lunches,
you might deplete most of your PP if you use PSI attacks throughout the
fight. If both Paula and Jeff are protected from fire, stick to standard
attacks against the Carbon Dog, and keep Ness and Poo alive with Lifeup
to conserve PP for use against the Diamond Dog. If less than 2 party
members are protected from fire, use your strongest Freeze attacks
against the Carbon Dog instead.
When the Diamond Dog appears, have Jeff use the Neutralizer or the
Shield Killer to remove the Diamond Dog's reflecting physical shield
before using "shoot" or the Heavy Bazooka. Paula and Poo should use
their strongest Freeze attacks while Ness uses PSI Rockin[beta] for the
most part.
If you start to run low on PP, use a Bottle of DXwater or a Brain Food
Lunch on Poo or a Magic Truffle on Paula; Ness can use "bash" instead of
PSI Rockin. Always make sure Ness and Poo have enough PP for Lifeup. If
you don't have any items that can cure diamondization or revive someone
unconscious, keep Ness's PP above 20 for Healing[gamma] and keep Poo's
PP above 38 for Healing[omega].
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta]
recover with Lifeup if someone's HP falls to 150 or lower
Healing[gamma], on anyone diamondized
-Paula: "bash"
Freeze[omega]
-Jeff: Multi Bottle Rocket

Damage: 50~80 HP (Ness)
40~65 HP (Paula)
45~70 HP (Jeff)
50~80 HP (Poo)

Effect: possess a single target with a Tiny Li'l Ghost
-Disrupt your senses

You should be able to defeat the Evil Elemental in 1 or 2 rounds using
standard attacks. Always defeat this enemy last.

c)Major Psychic Psycho
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire[beta]
Damage: 120~200 HP to all
-Fire[gamma]
Damage: 190~280 HP to all
-PSI Shield[omega]
Effect: protects all enemies with a reflecting PSI Shield
-Paralysis[alpha]
Effect: might paralyze a single target
Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round. Have Poo use Freeze[beta] if
his "bash" is weak. Attack this enemy after defeating any Soul Consuming
Flames.
The Major Psychic Psycho has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Star
Pendant, an item that protects from Fire, Freeze, Flash, and Paralysis.

d)Psychic Psycho
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Resistant: Fire
Attacks
-Fire[alpha]
Damage: 60~100 HP to all
-Fire[beta]
Damage: 120~200 HP to all
Strategy
If the Psychic Psycho appears alone, use standard attacks or Freeze to
defeat this enemy in 1 or 2 rounds. Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first
round if this enemy appears with a Major Psychic Psycho or if Paula and
Jeff aren't protected from Fire. Use PSI Magnet if Paula or Poo is low
on PP. Defeat the Psychic Psycho before only Evil Elementals.

Damage: 200~400 HP to everyone
Comments: The damage inflicted by all of the above attacks can be
reduced to 10~20 HP with the Flame Pendant, the Sea Pendant,
or the Star Pendant.
-Edge closer
Effect: none
Strategy
The Soul Consuming Flame has very low Defense and can be defeated in 1
round with standard attacks. One hit from Freeze[gamma] and a standard
attack can also defeat this enemy. Defeat the Soul Consuming Flame first
in any battle. Make sure anyone not protected from Fire has at least 150
HP before engaging.

WALKTHROUGH
a)Preparation
* If Jeff doesn't have at least 3 Multi Bottle Rockets, teleport to Deep
Darkness and buy a few from the arms dealer there.
* You should also have gotten the Sea Pendant in the northeast corner of
the Underworld and equipped it on Paula. The Flame Pendant found in the
Monkey Cave is also helpful here and should be equipped on Jeff.
(The above steps are for making the upcoming Sanctuary boss fight easier.)
The Eighth Sanctuary Cave is in the southwest corner of the Underworld. To
get there, walk all the way west from the Tenda settlement and then turn
south. There is a gift box containing the Cloak of Kings on the way; this
item increases Poo's Speed by 40 and is especially helpful when you need
to save someone mortally wounded.
There is a blue geyser near the Eighth Sanctuary Cave that recovers HP/PP.
Just stand on top of the geyser and wait for it to erupt. Use the nearby
bird phone to save.
b)Eighth Sanctuary Cave: Enemies
The strongest enemies in the cave are the Soul Consuming Flame and the
Major Psychic Psycho. The Soul Consuming Flame can damage the entire party
with Fire equivalent attacks, but it has very low Defense and is
vulnerable to Freeze. Use standard attacks or Freeze[beta] to defeat this
enemy in the first round.
The Major Psychic Psycho can use Fire[gamma] and Paralysis[alpha]. Use PSI
Shield[sigma] in the first round and standard attacks to defeat it in 1 or
2 rounds. If Poo's "bash" doesn't inflict much damage, have him use Freeze
[beta].
The Psychic Psycho is similar to the Major Psychic Psycho, but it can use
only Fire[alpha] and [beta]. If this enemy appears alone, use standard
attacks and Freeze[alpha] or [beta] to defeat this enemy in 1 round. If
you're protected with a PSI shield, use PSI Magnet.
The Evil Elemental can cause possession and is resistant to Freeze, but
it's a weak enemy overall. Use standard attacks to defeat it last.
NOTE: The Major Psychic Psycho has a 1/128 chance of carrying the Star
Pendant, an item that protects from Fire, Freeze, Flash, and
Paralysis.
c)Getting Through the Cave
The first cave door from the entrance leads to a Speed Capsule. This way
is a dead end, but the path is short.
If you want a Bag of Dragonite, climb up the first couple of ropes from
the entrance. Unfortunately, this path is also a dead end.
Walk to the right until a puddle of lava blocks the way and enter the
second cave door. Go through this small room and walk all the way to the
right wall of the Sanctuary Cave. There is a gift box here holding a
Cherub's Band. Obtain it and equip it on Paula. If Paula was equipped with
the Pixie's Bracelet, equip that on Jeff. Go back a little and climb up
the rope.
From here, there should be three paths available: two cave openings and a
rope. The cave opening on the left leads to the Magic Butterfly room; keep
reentering this room until HP/PP is recovered. 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 fork is two cave openings. Enter the one on the right to find a
Moon Beam Gun, a weapon for Jeff. Enter the one on the left to proceed.
Climb up the ropes to the Shining Spot.
d)Sanctuary Boss
The Sanctuary Boss battle is divided between the Carbon Dog first and the
Diamond Dog second with no break in-between. The Carbon Dog is slightly
stronger in offensive strength because it frequently engulfs the entire
party in flames, but the Diamond Dog can get instant KOs through
diamondization and its "glorious light" attack and has about twice as much
HP.
Three Multi Bottle Rockets should be enough to win this fight. The Diamond
Dog is protected with a reflecting physical shield when it appears, but
don't bother using the Neutralizer or the Shield Killer. Since Ness is
usually slower than Jeff, have Ness use Lifeup on Jeff in the same round
as when you fire a Multi Bottle Rocket to keep Jeff alive. If Ness goes
before Jeff, have Poo save him. Note that damage is reflected to Jeff if a
Multi Bottle Rocket defeats the Carbon Dog.
IMPORTANT: Ness will be traveling alone for a while after recording all
melodies. In preparation, equip your best defensive items on
him and give him the Franklin Badge. (Leave whatever is
equipped on his "arms;" a better bracelet can be found soon.)
He should be protected from Flash and carry all of your Bags of
Dragonite. Carry a couple of Magic Truffles or a Brain Food
Lunch if possible, but leave at least 2 empty spaces in his
inventory.

About 5 hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Kraken.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to about 120~150 or
lower
e)Loaded Dice
Vulnerable: Paralysis
Attacks
-Call for help
Effect: a Beautiful UFO, Care Free Bomb, Electro Swoosh, Fobby, High-
Class UFO, or an Uncontrollable Sphere joins the battle
Comments: If a Care Free Bomb joins the battle, defeat it first after
paralyzing the Loaded Dice. Defeat any Uncontrollable Spheres
last.
Strategy
Use Paralysis[alpha] in the first round to prevent the Loaded Dice from
calling for help. Defeat this enemy last.
Like all gift box enemies, this one can move only in a straight line and
can be dodged or approached from behind. If you get a green swirl, you
can "run away" with a 100% chance of success.
-Ness: (first turn) Paralysis[alpha]
"bash"
f)Mr. Molecule
Attacks
-Flash[alpha]
Effect: might cause crying or feeling strange
Comments: The Mr. Molecule can't use PSI for the first 4 rounds of
battle.
-Fire[alpha]
Damage: 60~100 HP to all
-Freeze[alpha]
Damage: 150~220 HP
Effect: solidification (25% chance)
-Thunder[alpha]
Effect: summon 1 lightning bolt
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
Strategy
One or two hits from Ness's "bash" should defeat the Mr. Molecule. If
Ness has the Sea or Star Pendant and the Franklin Badge, this enemy
poses no threat whatsoever. Otherwise, recover if Ness's HP falls to 150
or below after the fourth round. Defeat the Mr. Molecule last when it
appears in a group.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 150 or lower and
he doesn't have the Sea or Star Pendant
g)Ness's Nightmare
Recommended Level: 65
Attacks
-PSI Rockin[alpha]
Damage: 40~120 HP to all
-PSI Rockin[omega]
Damage: 430~920 HP to all
Comments: There is a small chance PSI Rockin won't work on Ness.
-Lifeup[beta]
Effect: recover 230~370 HP
-Shield[beta]
Effect: reduces damage inflicted by "bash" by 50%; reflects damage
inflicted by any physical attack
Comments: This move reflects damage from Bags of Dragonite.
-Emit a glorious light
Effect: might cause crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an instant KO
Comments: If Ness has the Night, Sea, or Star Pendant, this attack
doesn't affect him. Otherwise, buy an Earth Pendant from the
store in Magicant to reduce the chance this attack will
instantly defeat Ness. Without protection from Flash, you'll
need some luck to win this fight.
Strategy
This battle is a lesson on managing the rolling HP counter. Wait until
Ness's HP rolls down to about 200 before recovering with Lifeup[gamma]
even if mortally wounded. Wait until the counter reaches near max before
attacking again just in case Ness is hit with PSI Rockin[omega].
Use any Bags of Dragonite you have at the start of the fight. Attack with
"bash" thereafter and switch to PSI Rockin[beta] when Ness's Nightmare
uses Shield[beta]. (Ness's Nightmare is protected with a PSI shield at
the start of the fight.)
Eat some Magic Pudding, a Magic Truffle, or a Brain Food Lunch if PP runs
low. If you don't have PP recovery items, a safer but slower strategy is
to not use PSI Rockin[beta] even after Ness's Nightmare uses Shield
[beta]. If you have a Sudden Guts Pill, use it at the start of the fight
to improve your chances of getting SMAAAASH!! hits.
-Ness: "bash"
PSI Rockin[beta], if Ness's Nightmare uses Shield[beta]
Bag of Dragonite
Sudden Guts Pill
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP rolls down to about 200 or
lower
WALKTHROUGH
a)Preliminaries
Magicant should be easy if you gave Ness the Franklin Badge and the Sea or
Star Pendant. Otherwise, you should buy some new equipment.
Walk south from Ness's starting place and enter the building on the right.
This is Magicant's store (there is an ATM in the neighboring building).
Buy 2 or 3 Magic Puddings if Ness doesn't have any Magic Truffles or Brain
Food Lunches, and get an Earth Pendant if he isn't equipped with the
Night, Sea, or Star Pendant. The Earth Pendant provides 50% protection
from Fire, Freeze, and Flash and can save Ness's life from the "glorious
light" attack used by the boss at the end of Magicant.
To the right of Ness's starting place is Ness's mom and Tracy. Talk to
Tracy if you want to store something and talk to Ness's mom to rest.
b)Monsters in Ness's mind
Ness can enlist the help of a "Flying Man" in the house near Buzz Buzz's
grave. The Flying Man can inflict about 100 HP of damage with his attacks,
but he likely won't make it to the end of Magicant because you can't
recover his HP. As far as I can tell, the Flying Man has about 300 to 400
HP.
The enemies in Magicant can be fairly tough. The Loaded Dice can summon
the aid of many different enemies but can be rendered helpless with
Paralysis[alpha]. Because the Loaded Dice is a gift box enemy, it can move
only in a straight line and can be avoided or approached from behind.
The other enemy that can cause trouble is the Care Free Bomb. When facing
this enemy, take advantage of the rolling HP counter and don't use Lifeup
[gamma] until Ness's HP rolls down to about 150. Wait for the counter to
reach near max before attacking again. If you're fast (and lucky) enough,
you should have to use Lifeup only once in most fights against this enemy.
c)The Path to Waking Up
The music changes when you enter the area with enemies. You can either go
north or east from the starting point.
Walk east to find a gift box containing a Bag of Dragonite and another
Ness. Save the Bag of Dragonite for the next boss. Talk to Ness to receive
a Baseball Cap, a completely useless item. Go north to proceed.
Go north at the next fork to find a Goddess Band. Equip this on Paula when
Ness returns to the outside world. Take the path leading east to proceed.
There are two other gift boxes here that contain a Magicant Bat and a
Magic Tart, an item that recovers 20 PP. Use the Magic Tart here because
it isn't very useful after Magicant.
There is a strange squiggly object at the end of this path. "Check" it to
teleport to 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 it and can be defeated with
standard attacks. Recover with Lifeup[gamma] when Ness's HP rolls down to
150 or lower, especially if he isn't protected from Fire.
d)Ness's Nightmare
Be near max HP before checking the statue in the Sea of Eden.
Take advantage of the rolling HP counter in this fight. Recover with
Lifeup[gamma] only when the HP counter rolls down to about 200, even if
Ness is mortally wounded, and wait until HP is near max before attacking
again just in case Ness's Nightmare uses PSI Rockin[omega].
Use any Bags of Dragonite you have at the start of the fight. Attack with
"bash" initially and switch to PSI Rockin[beta] when Ness's Nightmare uses
Shield[beta] (Ness's Nightmare is protected with a PSI shield at the start
of the battle). Use a Magic Truffle, a Magic Pudding, or a Brain Food
Lunch if PP runs low.
If you're low on PP recovery items, a safer but slower strategy is to keep
bashing even after Ness's Nightmare uses Shield[beta]. Use a Sudden Guts
Pill at the start of the fight if you have one to increase the chances of
getting SMAAAASH!! hits (a SMAAAASH!! hit eliminates a shield in 1 hit).

-Paralysis[omega]
Effect: might paralyze the entire party
-Brainshock[omega]
Effect: might make the entire party feel strange
-Glare with its eerie eyes
Effect: diamondize a single target
Strategy
If the Evil Eye doesn't appear with a Ghost of Starman, use Freeze
[omega] and Freeze[alpha] to defeat it quickly. If the Evil Eye appears
with a Ghost of Starman, have Poo use Freeze[gamma] and Ness and Jeff
attack it to defeat it first.
Use Healing[beta] on anyone feeling strange and Healing[gamma] on anyone
paralyzed or diamondized.

-Whisper "3..."
Effect: none

Effect: none
-Starstorm[omega]

Comments: The Ghost of Starman always attacks in the above order,
starting the pattern over again in the seventh round.
Strategy
Have Paula use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against
the Ghost of Starman's Starstorm. If Paula is not always able to go
before this enemy attacks, try equipping her with the Rabbit's Foot
(Speed +40), an item found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave. If you sold or
threw away the Rabbit's Foot, the Crystal Charm (Speed +15) is your next
best bet.

Damage: 100~140 HP (Ness)
70~100 HP (Paula)
70~100 HP (Jeff)
100~140 HP (Poo)
-Generate a mysterious electrical field
Effect: might paralyze a single target
Comments: This attack has a low success rate and is nothing to worry
about. The only way I got this attack to work was by using
"mirror" and waiting for Poo to use this attack on the
Mechanical Octobot.
-Try to steal something
Effect: steal a random, nonessential item
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Mechanical Octobot in 1 or 2 rounds
using standard attacks. Defeat this enemy last.
-Ness: "bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 140 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 100 or lower

WALKTHROUGH
a)Incomplete Invention
NOTE 1: If there is anything you want to do in Onett, do it now. All
buildings other than Ness's house will become inaccessible soon
and will stay that way until the final boss is defeated.
NOTE 2: There are new items being sold in the Saturn Valley store. If each
party member doesn't have an item that protects from Flash (i.e.
the Night, Sea, or Star Pendant), buy as many Night Pendants from
the store as needed and give one each to Ness, Paula, Jeff, and
Poo. Don't equip them until the final fight.
Give Paula the Goddess Band you found in Magicant. If you were optimally
equipped, you should give the Cherub's Band to Jeff and the Pixie's
Bracelet to Ness.
Talk to Dr. Andonuts in Saturn Valley and attempt to enter the Phase
Distorter.
Dr. Andonuts explains that a meteorite piece is needed to complete the
device and asks if you've seen a meteorite lately. Answer "yes" when
prompted; answering "no" just causes Dr. Andonuts to ask again. Teleport
to Onett.
b)Dark Onett
The enemies in northern Onett are the Evil Eye, the Ghost of Starman, and
the Mechanical Octobot. The Evil Eye can debilitate the party with status
effects and should be defeated first with Freeze[gamma] or [omega].
The Ghost of Starman always uses Starstorm[alpha] in the first round and
Starstorm[omega] in the sixth. If Paula is not always able to use PSI
Shield[sigma] before the Ghost of Starman attacks, try equipping her with
the Rabbit's Foot (Speed +40) found in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave. If you
sold or threw away the Rabbit's Foot, the Crystal Charm (Speed +15) is
your next best bet.
The Mechanical Octobot is not much of a threat and can be defeated with
just standard attacks. If you want to recover, you can go to Ness's house
and rest there for free.
When you reach the impact site, "check" the meteorite and answer "yes"
when prompted. 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).
c)Preparing for the Final Area
Talk to Dr. Andonuts and he asks the party if they are ready. Whether you
answer "yes" or "no," he tells 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, give an item that
protects from Flash to each party member (including Poo) but don't equip
them until the final fight. Place the Franklin Badge in Paula's inventory,
along with a Sea or Star Pendant if you have one. Protecting Paula from
all forms of PSI attacks will greatly help in the final battle.
You will also encounter many Ghosts of Starman on your way to the last
boss. If you had trouble with them in Onett, get the Rabbit's Foot in the
Seventh Sanctuary Cave or buy a Crystal Charm in Scaraba if you didn't
already and equip it on Paula. Level up Ness until he learns Lifeup
[omega] at level 70.
Talk to Dr. Andonuts again and answer "yes." Approach the front of the
Phase Distorter to leave Saturn Valley.
NOTE: If you save your game after using the Phase Distorter, you won't be
able to return to any other place in the game.
d)Cave of the Past
Walk east and the old man from Dalaam appears to teach Poo one last
ability.
Continue walking east to find a destroyed Phase Distorter. "Check" the
rubble to find a Horn of Life.
Walk to the dead-end past the strange silver pillar and go back; Dr.
Andonuts, Apple Kid, and a Mr. Saturn appear from another Phase Distorter.
Talk to Apple Kid and then Dr. Andonuts. Answer "yes" when prompted both
times to proceed.

inflicted by any physical attack
-Brainshock[omega]
Effect: might make the entire party feel strange
-Flash a menacing smile
Effect: none
Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round. If Ness or Jeff start feeling
strange, have Poo use Healing[beta] on one of them. If Poo feels
strange, you should be able to have him "bash" without much risk to your
party; he may even hit someone feeling strange and revert them to
normal.
Use PSI Shield[omega] if you want an easier time against the Final
Starman. With PSI Shield[omega], you can have Paula and Poo use PSI
Magnet while the Final Starman and any Ghosts of Starman it appears with
destroy themselves with Starstorm.
The Final Starman is protected with PSI Shield[beta] from the start of a
fight; the psychic shield is replaced if this enemy uses Shield[beta].

Effect: none
-Starstorm[omega]
Damage: 580~860 HP to all
Comments: The Ghost of Starman always attacks in the above order,
starting the pattern over again in the seventh round.
Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against the Ghost of
Starman's Starstorm. If Paula is not always able to go before this enemy
attacks, equip her with the Rabbit's Foot (Speed +40) or a Crystal Charm
(Speed +15).
If you don't have either item, your best chance may be to use Lifeup
[omega] in the second round. Be sure everyone has at least 200 HP before
entering battle.
If you're low on PP recovery items, a good way to maintain Paula and
Poo's PP is to use PSI Magnet after protecting everyone with a PSI
shield. Have Ness and Jeff "defend" until enough PP is recovered.

Effect: recover max HP for a single target
-Explode into bits (death action)
Damage: 150~300 HP
Peripheral Damage: 50~200 HP
Comments: A party member should suffer only about 50 HP of damage at
most if you defeat this enemy last and end the battle quickly.
Strategy
You should be able to defeat the Nuclear Reactor Robot in 1 or 2 rounds
using standard attacks. Use the Monkey's Love or the Slime Generator to
prevent this enemy from recovering HP. Always defeat this enemy last.
You can use Poo's "mirror" on the Nuclear Reactor Robot to recover your
HP without using PP, though this method requires some patience to use.

WALKTHROUGH
a)The Cave of the Past: Enemies
When facing the Ghost of Starman, use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round
to defend against its Starstorm. If Paula does not always go before the
Ghost of Starman, equip her with the Rabbit's Foot (Speed +40) or the
Crystal Charm (Speed +15). If you don't have either item, use Lifeup
[omega] to recover the party, but make sure everyone has at least 200 HP
before entering battle.
The Final Starman can use Brainshock[omega] and Shield[beta] in addition
to Starstorm. PSI Shield[sigma] should be sufficient for the most part,
but PSI Shield[omega] can cause the Final Starman and any Ghosts of
Starman it appears with to destroy themselves with Starstorm. If Ness or
Jeff feel strange, use Healing[beta] to cure one of them.
If Paula or Poo run low on PP and you don't have PP recovery items,
repeatedly use PSI Magnet against Starmen after protecting everyone with a
PSI shield. Have Ness and Jeff "defend" until enough PP is recovered.
Most other enemies in this cave can be defeated with standard attacks.
Always defeat any Nuclear Reactor Robots last; use the Slime Generator or
the Monkey's Love to prevent them from recovering HP. Use Poo's "mirror"
to copy their "replenish a fuel supply" ability if you have the patience.
If you ever encounter a horde of enemies on the field, you can often avoid
some fights by trying to approach an enemy from behind during the few
seconds of invulnerability after fights. You can run away with a 100%
chance of success on the first round if you get a green swirl.
b)The Path to Giygas
The Cave of the Past is a very straightforward area with no branching
whatsoever. The only gift box here contains the Legendary Bat, a weapon
for Ness.
The Bionic Kraken has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Gutsy Bat (Offense
+100, Guts +127). The Bionic Kraken seems to appear only on the island
after the first teleporting sphere and just before the cave leading to
Giygas.
The last boss is in a large cave full of tubes. Before approaching Giygas,
give the Franklin Badge and a Sea or Star Pendant to Paula. If Jeff has
any Multi Bottle Rockets, equip him with the Rabbit's Foot; otherwise,
Bottle Rockets don't help much in the final fight. Place an item that
protects from Flash in each person's inventory, and equip them in the
second or third phase of the final battle.

2.Final Battle
Recommended Level: 71
Equipment:
Ness: Legendary Bat Paula: Holy Fry Pan
Night Pendant Sea Pendant
Pixie's Bracelet Goddess Band
Shiny Coin Saturn Ribbon
Jeff: Moon Beam Gun Poo: (nothing) or Sword of Kings
Rabbit's Foot/Night Pendant Cloak of Kings/Night Pendant
Cherub's Band Bracer of Kings
Souvenir Coin Diadem of Kings
ENEMIES/WALKTHROUGH
a)Heavily Armed Pokey
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Charge forward
Damage: 180~300 HP (Ness)
150~260 HP (Paula)
150~260 HP (Jeff)
180~300 HP (Poo)
-Tear into you
Damage: 180~300 HP (Ness)
150~260 HP (Paula)
150~260 HP (Jeff)
180~300 HP (Poo)
-Discharge a very stinky gas
Effect: reduces all party members' Offense by about 6%
Strategy
The first part of the final battle is 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
(don't use PSI Shield[omega] or [beta]). Use PSI Shield[sigma] whenever
the shield starts to weaken, or have Ness use Lifeup[omega] in each
round if Paula is low on PP.
Pokey is somewhat vulnerable to Paralysis, so use Paralysis[alpha] in
each turn until successful to render Pokey helpless. Have Paula and Poo
use their strongest Freeze attacks while Jeff uses the Heavy Bazooka or
his standard attack. If Jeff has any Multi Bottle Rockets, equip him
with the Rabbit's Foot; otherwise, Multi Bottle Rockets don't inflict
much damage to Pokey.
Use PSI Magnet[omega] if Paula or Poo runs low on PP to drain some from
Giygas and Pokey.
You'll hopefully be able to defeat Pokey in about 3 rounds.
-Ness: Paralysis[alpha], until successful
"bash"
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover with Lifeup[omega] if hit by PSI Rockin
-Paula: (first turn) PSI Shield[sigma]
Freeze[omega]
PSI Magnet[omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Multi Bottle Rocket, if equipped with Rabbit's Foot
-Poo: Freeze[gamma]
PSI Magnet[omega]
recover Ness with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Paula with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Jeff with Lifeup[beta] if HP falls to 200 or lower
recover Poo with Lifeup[gamma] if HP falls to 200 or lower
b)Giygas (Form 1: The Devil's Machine)
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-PSI Rockin[alpha]
Damage: 40~120 HP to all
-PSI Rockin[beta]
Damage: 100~270 HP to all
Strategy
Use PSI Shield[sigma] in the first round to defend against PSI Rockin
(don't use PSI Shield[omega] or [beta]). Use PSI Shield[sigma] again
whenever the shield starts to weaken, or have Ness use Lifeup[omega] in
each round if Paula is low on PP.
All damage inflicted on Giygas reflect off of him and damage the party.
This includes any attack reflected off of a power shield or any attack
Giygas targets himself with (this can occur if Poo uses Brainshock to
make Giygas 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 using PSI Magnet[omega] to recover Paula or Poo's PP.
-Ness: recover with Lifeup[omega] as needed
-Paula: PSI Shield[sigma]
PSI Magnet[omega]
-Poo: PSI Magnet[omega]
c)Giygas (Form 2)
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Attack 1
Damage: 150~220 HP to the entire party
Status Effect: solidification (25% chance)
Comments: Freeze protective items, such as the Rain Pendant, reduces
damage inflicted by this attack to about ~10 HP. I suggest you
give priority to Flash protection, however, because Giygas's
Flash equivalent attack has a pretty good chance of rendering
someone unconscious. Use Lifeup[omega] to recover from this
attack.
-Attack 2
Effect: summons 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Attack 3
Effect: causes uncontrollable crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an
instant KO
Comment: Flash protective items, such as the Night Pendant, provides
near immunity to this attack.
-Waste a turn
Strategy
To defeat Giygas's second form, the party has to inflict roughly 2000 HP
worth of damage. Have Ness use PSI Rockin and Paula use Freeze[omega].
If Poo has a good amount of PP, use Starstorm[alpha] or [omega]; Poo
should have enough PP leftover for Brainshock and maybe Healing[omega]
if Ness and Paula aren't protected from Flash.
Use Multi Bottle Rockets only if Jeff is equipped with the Rabbit's
Foot. Otherwise, Multi Bottle Rockets don't work.
-Ness: PSI Rockin[gamma] or [omega]
recover with Lifeup[beta], [gamma], or [omega] as necessary
-Paula: Freeze[omega]
-Jeff: "shoot"
Heavy Bazooka
Multi Bottle Rocket, if equipped with Rabbit's Foot
-Poo: Starstorm[alpha]
Starstorm[omega]
Freeze[gamma]
recover with Lifeup[beta] or [gamma] as necessary
d)Giygas (Final Forms)
Vulnerable: Brainshock
Attacks
-Attack 1
Damage: 150~220 HP to the entire party
Status Effect: solidification (25% chance)
Comments: Freeze protective items, such as the Rain Pendant, reduces
damage inflicted by this attack to about ~10 HP. I suggest you
give priority to Flash protection, however, because Giygas's
Flash equivalent attack has a pretty good chance of rendering
someone unconscious. Use Lifeup[omega] to recover from this
attack.
-Attack 2
Effect: summons 2 lightning bolts
Damage: 65~170 HP per bolt
-Attack 3
Effect: causes uncontrollable crying, feeling strange, paralysis, or an
instant KO
Comment: Flash protective items, such as the Night Pendant, provides
near immunity to this attack.
-Waste a turn
Strategy
The only way to defeat Giygas's final forms is to have Paula "pray" 9
times. If Paula has the Franklin Badge and the Sea or Star Pendant, she
will have no trouble surviving. Otherwise, use Lifeup to keep her HP
near max.
Use Brainshock[alpha] whenever Giygas is not feeling strange. Have Poo
use Freeze[alpha] as much as possible to try to solidify Giygas.
If anyone is not protected from Flash at this point and you gave each
person a Night Pendant, enter "goods" and select the Night Pendant to
equip it now.
-Ness: Lifeup[beta], [gamma], or [omega]
-Paula: "pray"
-Jeff: food and medicine
-Poo: Brainshock[alpha], if Giygas is not feeling strange
Freeze[alpha], to try to solidify Giygas
Lifeup[beta] or [gamma]
*******************************************************************************
XVIII.The Ending
*******************************************************************************
The ending in Earthbound is unique in that there are very few cutscenes or
predetermined occurrences. Rather, the ending allows you to explore the world
of EarthBound free of monsters and Giygas's evil influence. Many people say
something different from the normal course of the game, and some significant
characters can be found in different places.
To finish exploring and watch the ending credits, talk to Ness's mom and agree
to look at the photo album with her.
NOTE: It's possible to lose a fight during the ending. The Shattered Men can
still be found on the second floor of the Museum in Summers if you didn't
defeat them before. If you lose to them in battle, the screen turns black
and the game over music starts playing, but the game thinks you're still
in the Museum. Walk to the left and exit the room to see a strange
glitch.

XXII.Item Descriptions
*******************************************************************************
This section lists each item in the game and contains information on what they
do. Items are listed in alphabetical order.
ATM Card
Use: allows the use of ATMs
Obtained: Ness starts with this item
Ness is required to carry the ATM Card at all times. The ATM card can be
used even if Ness is unconscious.
Backstage Pass
Use: grants access to Chaos Theater in Twoson
Obtained: talk to one of the Runaway Five band members after rescuing
Paula
Approach the woman blocking the entrance to the music hall and "use" the
Backstage Pass to gain access. Give this item to Escargo Express once
Twoson is cleared.
Baddest Beam
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +98
Obtained: repair the Broken Harmonica (55 IQ needed)
The Broken Harmonica is found in a gift box in Stonehenge. You likely
won't need the Baddest Beam if Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka. Give this
weapon to Escargo Express when a better gun becomes available for Jeff.
Bad Key Machine
Use: -opens the lockers in Snow Wood Boarding House
-opens the door to Ness and Paula's underground holding cell in
Threed
Obtained: Maxwell in Snow Wood Boarding House
Give the Bad Key Machine to Escargo Express once Jeff joins Ness.
Bag of Dragonite
Use: inflicts about 250~450 HP of Fire damage to all enemies on screen
Obtained: -chest near the end of the Monkey Cave
-casket in the Pyramid in Scaraba
-talk to the Tenda Chief after giving him the Shyness Book
-trade 5 Horns of Life with a Tenda in Tenda Village
-gift box in the Eighth Sanctuary Cave
-gift box in Magicant
The Bag of Dragonite can inflict anywhere from 30 HP to 700 HP of damage
depending on an enemy's vulnerability to Fire. Physical power shields
(i.e. Shield[beta] and [omega]) reflect damage from this item.
Bag of Fries
Use: recovers about 24 HP
Banana
Use: recovers about 25 HP
Baseball Cap
Use: equip as "other" on Ness; Defense +5
Don't buy the Baseball Cap; the Mr. Baseball Cap is better.
Bazooka
Use: inflicts about 50~120 HP of damage to its target and 25~60 HP of
damage to adjacent targets
Obtained: merchant in Southern Scaraba, outside the Pyramid exit
The Bazooka is not worth buying because it will likely inflict less damage
than Jeff's "shoot." The Heavy Bazooka is better in every way.
Bean Croquette
Use: recovers about 40 HP
Beef Jerky
Use: recovers about 150 HP
Bicycle
Use: allows Ness to move faster
Obtained: Bike Shop in Twoson
The Bicycle is mostly useless because it can't be used if there's more
than one person in your party, and Paula joins Ness soon after this item
becomes available. If you decide to get the Bicycle, give it to Escargo
Express once Paula joins Ness.
Big Bottle Rocket
Use: item for Jeff; damages a single target
Obtained: -arms dealer in the Fourside Dept. Store
-arms dealer in the Hotel in Scaraba
The Big Bottle Rocket inflicts enough damage to make short work of most
mid-game bosses. Try to keep at least 2 of these in Jeff's inventory at
all times until the Multi Bottle Rocket becomes available.
Most enemies take about 500 HP of damage from the Big Bottle Rocket, but
enemies with high enough Speed take less damage or avoid damage
altogether.
Big League Bat
Use: weapon for Ness: Offense +54
Obtained: -Summers shop ($3080)
-Scaraba marketplace ($1380)
Bionic Slingshot
Use: weapon for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Offense +32
Obtained: Saturn Valley store
Slingshots and Yo-yos have slightly lower accuracies than the party's
standard weapons and can't get SMAAAASH!! hits, but their damage is not
reduced by shields. The Bionic Slingshot is good enough for Paula when you
first reach Saturn Valley, but it should be replaced with a Deluxe Fry Pan
when you get to Dusty Dunes Desert.
Boiled Egg
Use: recovers about 40 HP
The Boiled Egg is helpful when Jeff first ventures through Winters.
Bomb
Use: inflicts 50~120 HP of damage to a target and some minor damage to
adjacent targets
Obtained: most arms dealers in Threed and later
Give this item to Jeff and use it against bosses.
Bottle of DXwater
Use: recovers about 40 PP for Poo; recovers 1 PP for Ness and Paula
Obtained: -merchant by the Pyramid in Scaraba
-businessman in Deep Darkness
This item can help maintain the party's PP when going through long
dungeons. If you have a few Bottles of DXwater, have Poo use
Lifeup/Healing and Freeze instead of Ness or Paula.
Bottle of Water
Use: recovers 1 PP for Ness or Paula; recovers about 10 PP for Poo
The only advantage the Bottle of Water has over the DXwater is that the
cost per PP recovery for Poo is cheaper with normal Water ($.40 per PP vs.
$4.95 per PP). This shouldn't be very important since money usually isn't
an issue.
Bottle Rocket
Use: item for Jeff; damages a single target
Obtained: -arms dealer in Threed
-arms dealer in Dusty Dunes Desert
The Bottle Rocket inflicts about 120 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 all types of Bottle Rockets depends on Jeff and the
target's Speed (source: starmen.net). Enemies faster than Jeff receive
less damage or avoid damage altogether, though the success rate against
most enemies is near 100%.
Bowl of Rice Gruel
Use: recovers about 200 HP
Bracer of Kings
Use: equip on "arms" for Poo; Defense +30, Luck +35; protects from
Hypnosis
Obtained: gift box in the Sixth Sanctuary Cave
This is the only item Poo should equip on his arms.
Brain Food Lunch
Use: recovers about 300 HP and 50 PP for Ness, Paula, and Jeff; recovers
600 HP and 100 PP for Poo

Broken Air Gun

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
for Jeff in the game.
Broken Bazooka
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Heavy Bazooka, an item equivalent to
an infinite supply of Super Bombs
IQ Required: 45
Obtained: trash can in the sewers of Fourside
The Heavy Bazooka is powerful enough to replace Jeff's "shoot" until the
end of 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

IQ Required: 34
The Broken Gadget can be bought from a dealer in northern Fourside, past
the Monotoli Building and the Department Store.
Broken Harmonica
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Baddest Beam, a weapon for Jeff
IQ Required: 55
Obtained: gift box in Stonehenge
If Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka, you probably won't need the Baddest Beam.
Broken Iron
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Slime Generator, an item that
solidifies a single random target
IQ Required: 10
Obtain the Broken Iron before leaving Brick Road's maze in Winters. You
can also buy one in Twoson or Fourside.
While the Slime Generator isn't a great item, it has a decent success rate
against some powerful enemies near the end of the game.
Broken Laser
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Laser Gun, a weapon for Jeff
IQ Required: 24
Obtained: gift box in Belch's factory
Jeff will probably be able to repair the Broken Laser after Master Belch
is defeated.
Broken Pipe
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Shield Killer, which eliminates a
shield protecting a single target
IQ Required: 30
Obtained: gift box in Dr. Andonuts's Lab
The Shield Killer can be useful against enemies protected with reflecting
shields late in the game. It can occasionally fail to work, however, so
use the Neutralizer instead unless you need a shield yourself.
Broken Spray Can
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Defense Spray, which increases
someone's Defense by 6% for a fight
IQ Required: 1
The Defense Spray is rarely helpful and should be sold for $250.
Broken Trumpet
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Defense Shower, which increases the
entire party's Defense by about 6% per use in battle
IQ Required: 40
Obtained: gift box in Stonehenge
The Defense Shower isn't a very helpful item. Give it to Escargo Express
if you don't need it.
Broken Tube
Use: can be repaired by Jeff into the Hungry HP-Sucker, an item that can
drain some HP from all enemies on screen and give it to Jeff
IQ Required: 36
Obtained: trash can in the Monkey Cave in Dusty Dunes Desert
The Hungry HP-Sucker can be somewhat useful against groups of weak
enemies. It also ignores shields and can drain a lot of HP from bosses,
but it usually has a low success rate against strong enemies.
Jeff will likely be able to repair the Broken Tube by the time you record
the Fifth or Sixth Sanctuary Melody.
Broken Machine
Use: Jeff can repair this item into the Counter-PSI Unit, an item that can
render a target unable to use PSI for 4 rounds
IQ Required: 1
Obtained: trash can in Apple Kid's house
The Counter-PSI Unit rarely works against strong enemies, so you can leave
the Broken Machine behind or give it to Escargo Express.

Can of Fruit Juice
Use: recovers 6 HP
Carrot Key
Use: unlocks the Sixth Sanctuary Cave in Dalaam
Obtained: Fifth Sanctuary Spot
Carton of Cream
Use: condiment

-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Casey Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +125; accuracy of 25%
Obtained: Master Barf in Deep Darkness
The Casey Bat is too unreliable for general use.

the price.

Buy Fresh Eggs for $12, wait for it to grow into a Chicken, and sell the
Chicken for a $98 profit. Like the Chick, the Chicken runs away when used.
Cloak of Kings
Use: equip on "body" for Poo; Defense +20, Speed +40
Obtained: gift box in the Lost Underworld
The Cloak of Kings is in the southwest part of the Underworld. The Cloak
of Kings will likely make Poo the fastest party member, so have him use
Lifeup when you need to save someone mortally wounded.

Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +40, Luck +13
Obtained: -gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert

Use: weapon for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Offense +54
Obtained: arms dealer in Deep Darkness
Slingshots and Yo-yos have slightly lower accuracies than the party's
standard weapons and cannot get SMAAAASH!! hits, but their damage is not
reduced by shields. Avoid using them for the most part.
Contact Lens
Use: return this to its owner to receive a Pair of Dirty Socks
The Contact Lens can be found northwest of the miner's shack in Dusty
Dunes Desert. Return it to the man on 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).

Use Cookies to recover minor or moderate damage after fights.

Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Drugstore in Happy Happy Village

Escargo Express.

once you buy the Tee Ball Bat at the Drugstore in Onett.

Crusher Beam
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +72
Obtained: merchant in Southern Scaraba
If Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka or the Spectrum Beam, you won't need the
Crusher Beam.
Crystal Charm
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +2, Speed +15;
protects from Paralysis
Obtained: Scaraba marketplace
The Crystal Charm can help Jeff attack before most enemies and improve the
effectiveness of his Bottle Rockets (source: starmen.net). Equip this item
on him until the last few parts of the game.
Cup of Coffee
Use: recovers about 12 HP
Cup of Lifenoodles
Use: can revive someone unconscious or heal poison, nausea, colds,
sunstroke, sleep, crying, feeling strange, paralysis, and
diamondization
This item is a potential lifesaver. Make sure Ness has one or two of these
in his inventory and give one to each party member if you have any extras.
The Cup of Lifenoodles can be found only in gift boxes, but the Horn of
Life is an equivalent item sold in Saturn Valley for $1780.
Cup of Noodles
Use: recovers about 40 HP
Death Ray
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +90
Obtained: trash can in Tenda Village
Defense Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +40, Luck +15

after this becomes available.
Defense Shower
Use: increases the entire party's Defense by 6% up to four times in a
single battle; can be used an infinite number of times
Obtained: repair the Broken Trumpet (40 IQ needed)
The Defense Shower isn't very useful for the most part and should be given
to Escargo Express.
Defense Spray
Use: increases the Defense of a single person by about 6%; gone after one
use
The Defense Spray isn't very useful and should be sold for $250.

the way and gives you the Diamond. "Use" the Diamond while standing next
to the manager of Topolla Theater to free the Runaway Five.

the Monotoli Building and the Dept. Store.

Earth Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; provides 50% protection
from Fire, Freeze, and Flash; Defense +16
Obtained: store in Magicant
If Ness isn't protected from Flash, buy the Earth Pendant to prevent him
from getting instantly defeated by Flash and equivalent attacks. The Earth
Pendant doesn't completely protect from Flash, so don't buy it if Ness has
the Night, Sea, or Star Pendant.
Eraser Eraser
Use: eliminates the eraser statue blocking the way into Stonehenge
Obtained: from Apple Kid's mouse in Dr. Andonuts's Lab after visiting
Tenda Village
The Eraser Eraser is not used after Stonehenge and should be given to
Escargo Express.

Obtained: -in a house south of Onett
-in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-in Stonehenge
Flame Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage from Fire
and equivalent attacks by about 96%; Defense +15
Obtained: -trash can in the Monkey Cave
-Saturn Valley store, after clearing Magicant
Equip the Flame Pendant on Paula until you get the Sea Pendant in the Lost
Underworld. This item also reduces damage inflicted by Fire equivalent
attacks such as "breathe fire."
For Sale Sign
Use: summons a customer to buy an item
Obtained: shaggy haired kid in Burglin Park
The For Sale Sign can be convenient because inventory space is limited,
and you'll likely have to get rid of a lot of unneeded items after the
early parts of the game.
Franklin Badge
Use: reflects electrical attacks away from the person carrying the Badge
Obtained: Paula in Happy Happy Village
Give the Badge to Paula once she joins Ness to help her survive.
French Fry Pan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +60
Obtained: merchant in southern Scaraba
Fresh Egg
Use: recovers about 80 HP; turns into a Chick in about 1 min. and then a
Chicken after another 30~40 sec.
Fresh Eggs can help you earn money in the early parts of the game. Buy a
Fresh Egg for $12 and sell the Chicken for $110 to gain $98. The best
place to buy Fresh Eggs is probably Burglin Park in Twoson. Another great
place is the food stand in Happy Happy Village where you can get Fresh
Eggs for free, though the food stand closes after you defeat Mr.
Carpainter.
Fry Pan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +10
Obtained: Drugstore in Happy Happy Village
Buy the Fry Pan when Paula joins Ness. Sell it once the Thick Fry Pan
becomes available in Threed.
Gaia Beam
Use: weapon for Jeff
Obtained: repair the Broken Antenna (65 IQ needed)
The Broken Antenna can be found only by fighting Uncontrollable Spheres in
the Seventh Sanctuary Cave. The Uncontrollable Sphere has a 1/128 chance
of dropping the Broken Antenna, so you'll need a lot of luck or a lot of
patience to get one. The Gaia Beam is the most powerful weapon for Jeff in
the game.
Gelato de Resort
Use: recovers about 30 HP
Obtained: snack stand on the beach in Summers
Goddess Band
Use: equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +80, Luck +30;
protects from Hypnosis
Obtained: gift box in Magicant
Equip the Goddess Band on Paula after Ness wakes up from Magicant.
Goddess Ribbon
Use: armor; equip as "other" on Paula
The Ghost of Starman has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Goddess Ribbon, the
best "other" armor for Paula (Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds). I have never
gotten this item, but according to the in-game description it increases
Defense and Luck and protects from Hypnosis (Thanks to: R. Etheridge).
Gold Bracelet
Use: equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +30
Obtained: Fourside Dept. Store
Great Charm
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +1, Speed +5;
protects from Paralysis
Obtained: -gift box in the Second Sanctuary Cave
-Saturn Valley shop
Gutsy Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +100, Guts +127
The Bionic Kraken in the Cave of the Past has a 1/128 chance of carrying
the Gutsy Bat, the best weapon for Ness in the game. The Guts increase is
enough to give Ness SMAAAASH!! hits roughly 40% of the time.
Guts Capsule
Use: permanently increases Guts by 1; Guts determines the chances of
getting SMAAAASH!! hits and surviving mortal blows
Obtained: -gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-gift box in Stonehenge
-gift box in the Lost Underworld
Use all Guts Capsules on Ness. Ness will likely benefit the most from a
high Guts stat since his "bash" is the strongest in the party. You'll also
want him to stay alive as much as possible to keep everyone healthy with
his Lifeup and Healing.
Hall of Fame Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +62
Obtained: trade 7 Horns of Life at the store in Tenda Village
Don't trade for this weapon because it's quickly superseded by the
Ultimate Bat at the next village.
Hamburger
Use: recovers about 50 HP
Always carry a few Hamburgers in the early parts of the game in case Ness
runs low on PP in the middle of a tough fight or while away from a place
to rest.
Hand-Aid
Use: recovers max HP
Obtained: talk to Paula's mom after Paula joins Ness
Handbag Strap
Use: inflicts minor damage and solidifies a single target

Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +15
Obtained: -gift box in Peaceful Rest Valley
-Drugstore in Threed
Hawk Eye
Use: allows you to see in Deep Darkness
Obtained: inside the Pyramid in Scaraba
"Use" the Hawk Eye while in the dark part of 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
Use: item for Jeff; inflicts about 140~400 HP of damage to its target and
70~200 HP of damage to adjacent targets
Obtained: repair the Broken Bazooka (45 IQ needed)
Be sure to get the Broken Bazooka in the sewers of Fourside. The Heavy
Bazooka is very useful because it usually inflicts more damage than Jeff's
"shoot," and it never misses even if Jeff is crying. Unless you take the
time to level up Jeff, the Heavy Bazooka will likely be stronger than
Jeff's "shoot" until the end of the game.
Hieroglyph Copy
Use: repeats what is written on the Hieroglyphs in the Museum in Summers
Obtained: second floor of the Museum in Summers
The Hieroglyph Copy explains how to open the Pyramid in Scaraba. Give it
to Escargo Express if you don't need it.
Holmes Hat
Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +10
Obtained: -Drugstore in Happy Happy Village
-inside a locker in Snow Wood Boarding House
Holy Fry Pan

Obtained: store in the Lost Underworld
Horn of Life
Use: can revive someone unconscious or heal poison, nausea, colds,
sunstroke, sleep, crying, feeling strange, paralysis, and
diamondization
Obtained: Saturn Valley store
The Horn of Life is identical to the Cup of Lifenoodles in its effects,
but the Horn of Life can be bought at Saturn Valley for $1780.
HP-Sucker
Use: tool for Jeff; drains a portion of a single target's HP and gives it
to Jeff
Obtained: trash can in Belch's Factory
The HP-Sucker ignores all shields and can drain a lot of HP from bosses,
but it drains very little HP from most normal enemies and rarely works
against strong enemies and bosses. I usually sell it for $400.
Hungry HP-sucker
Use: tool for Jeff; drains a portion of all enemies' HP and gives it to
its user
Obtained: repair the Broken Tube (36 IQ needed)
The Hungry HP-Sucker can be somewhat useful against groups of weak
enemies. It also ignores shields and can drain a lot of HP from bosses,
but it usually has a low success rate against strong enemies.
The HP drained by this item is added to the current amount displayed by
Jeff's HP counter even if it's rolling (source: starmen.net). Hence, you
should not press the A or L button when draining HP from multiple enemies
to recover as much as possible.
Insecticide Spray
Use: inflicts about 100 HP of damage to all bugs in battle
The Insecticide Spray is helpful against only Red Antoids in Grapefruit
Falls and Mostly Bad Flies in Belch's Base.
Insignificant Item
Use: none; trade it for a Magic Truffle (recovers 80 PP; 160 PP with a
Ketchup Packet)
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 nothing and sells for
only $1. Go to the second floor of Twoson Hospital and enter the room on
the left. Give the Insignificant Item to the man in this room to receive
a Magic Truffle in return.
IQ Capsule
Use: permanently increases IQ by 1; IQ determines the max PP of Ness,
Paula, and Poo and allows Jeff to repair items
Obtained: -trash can in Belch's Factory
-gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-gift box in Dungeon Man
-gift box in Deep Darkness
-gift box in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave
Use all IQ Capsules as soon as they're obtained. I usually use them on
Paula or Poo.
Jar of Delisauce
Use: condiment; works well with all appropriate food items
Obtained: restaurant in Dalaam
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Jar of Fly Honey
Use: needed to defeat Master Belch
Obtained: defeat the Boogey Tent in southern Threed after Jeff joins Ness
The Jar of Fly Honey is needed to defeat the boss Master Belch. This item
isn't used anywhere else and can be given to Escargo Express once Master
Belch is defeated.
Jar of Hot Sauce
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Kabob
Use: recovers about 120 HP
Ketchup Packet
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
Ketchup Packets are best used with Magic Truffles. The Magic Truffle is a
food item that recovers 80 PP, but only 6 of them can be found in the
game. To make the most of them, use Magic Truffles with Ketchup Packets to
recover 160 PP.
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Key to the Cabin
Use: unlocks Paula's jail cell in Peaceful Rest Valley
Obtained: defeat Mr. Carpainter
Key to the Locker
Use: nothing, but needs to be used to progress in the game
Obtained: talk to Maxwell on the first floor of Snow Wood Boarding House
Go up to one of the lockers and "use" the Key to the Locker. Talk to
Maxwell afterwards, and he'll give Jeff the Bad Key Machine.
Key to the Shack
Use: opens the shack leading to the First Sanctuary Cave in Onett
Obtained: talk to 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.

Give this Key to Escargo Express once Scaraba is cleared.

Trade the King Banana with one of the monkeys in the Monkey Cave to reach
the end of the cave.

Use: recovers about 240 HP for the entire party
The Large Pizza can be useful before Ness learns Lifeup[omega] at level 70.
To order a Large Pizza, enter a Mach Pizza store in Twoson or Threed and
learn their phone number. Call Mach Pizza over any phone and wait 3
minutes for the pizza to be delivered.
Laser Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +48
Obtained: repair the Broken Laser (24 IQ needed)
The Broken Laser can be found in a trash can in Belch's Factory. Jeff
should be able to repair the Broken Laser soon after Master Belch is
defeated. Give the Laser Gun to Escargo Express once a stronger weapon
becomes available.
Legendary Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +110
Obtained: gift box in the Cave of the Past
Luck Capsule
Use: permanently increases Luck by 1; a higher Luck reduces the success
rate of some attacks made against that person
Obtained: -gift box in Peaceful Rest Valley
-gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-gift box in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave
Jeff and Poo are the most deficient in Luck in the party and might benefit
the most from the Luck Capsule.
Lucky Coin
Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +50, Luck +20
Obtained: Summers shop
A cheaper alternative to the Lucky Coin is the Coin of Silence sold in
Winters (Defense +45, Luck +16).
Lucky Sandwich
Use: recovers 60 HP, 200 HP, max HP, or 5 PP
Luxury Jerky
Use: recovers about 300 HP
Magicant Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +80
Obtained: gift box in Magicant
Magic Fry Pan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +50, Guts +100
The Chomposaur in the Lost Underworld 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 isn't the best, and I don't think this weapon is
worth going out of your way to get.
Magic Pudding
Use: recovers about 40 PP
Obtained: store in Magicant
Buy as many Magic Puddings as you can in Magicant before heading into
dangerous territory. Buy at least 2 or 3, especially if Ness doesn't have
a Brain Food Lunch or a Magic Truffle.
Magic Tart
Use: recovers about 20 PP
Obtained: Magic Cake lady in Summers
Magic Truffle
Use: recovers about 80 PP (160 PP with a Ketchup Packet)
Only 6 Magic Truffles can be found in the game. The earliest one can be
obtained by finding the Insignificant Item in the Hospital in Threed and
returning it to a man in Twoson Hospital. The other 5 can be found growing
at the base of trees in Deep Darkness; "use" the Piggy Nose to pinpoint
their locations.
Because of the scarcity of Magic Truffles, make the most of them by using
them with Ketchup Packets.
Magnum Air Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +36
Obtained: repair the Broken Air Gun (12 IQ needed)
The Broken Air Gun is found in a locker in Snow Wood Boarding House. Jeff
should be able to repair the Broken Air Gun before going through the
Underground Passage in Threed. Give the Magnum Air Gun to Escargo Express
once a better weapon becomes available.
Mammoth Burger
Use: recovers about 200 HP
Map
Use: press the X button while carrying this item to see a map of the
current town
Obtained: talk to the librarian in Onett
Give the Map to Escargo Express if you don't need it.

testing the Phase Distorter. Give it to Dr. Andonuts to proceed to the
last part of the game.

Molokheiya Soup
Use: recovers about 80 HP
Monkey's Love
Use: solidifies a single, random target in battle; can be used many times
Obtained: teach Teleport to one of the monkeys in Deep Darkness
The Monkey's Love is effective against some strong enemies and can prevent
them from attacking in most rounds if used repeatedly. I usually give this
to Poo and have him use it when his "bash" isn't effective.
Moon Beam Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +110
Obtained: gift box in the Eighth Sanctuary Cave
Mr. Baseball Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +38
Obtained: Drugstore in Dusty Dunes Desert
Mr. Baseball Cap
Use: equip as "other" on Ness; Defense +6
Obtained: tree house in Onett
The Mr. Baseball Cap is the best "other" armor Ness can get in Onett. To
obtain this item, look for a shaggy haired kid west of the Library. Enter
the recess in the trees next to this kid and walk north to enter a tree
house. Talk to one of the kids inside to receive the Mr. Baseball Cap.
Mr. Saturn Coin
Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +47, Luck +18
Talk to one of the Mr. Saturns in the cave underneath the Saturn Valley
Store after defeating Master Belch to receive the Mr. Saturn Coin. Equip
it on Paula.
Multi Bottle Rocket
Use: item for Jeff; inflicts major damage to a single enemy
Obtained: arms dealer in Deep Darkness
The Multi Bottle Rocket can inflict about 500 to 2000 HP of damage to
most targets (targets with higher Speed receive less damage). Keep at
least 2 of these in Jeff's inventory at all times once they become
available. Use them against bosses, but make sure your target is not
protected with a reflecting physical shield.
The best place to buy this item is from the arms dealer in Deep Darkness.
Mummy Wrap
Use: inflicts about 200~350 HP of damage and solidifies a single target
The damage inflicted by the Mummy Wrap is pretty substantial, but it
doesn't always work. Give it to Jeff or Poo and use it against bosses.
Neutralizer
Use: tool for Jeff; resets everyone's stats changes and removes all
shields
Obtained: trash can in the Monkey Cave in Dusty Dunes Desert
The Neutralizer resets any stats changes caused by PSI moves--such as
Offense Up or Defense Down--or items, such as the Defense Spray. This item
also removes any shields protecting enemies and party members and has a
100% success rate.
The Neutralizer is most useful for removing shields because some powerful
bosses and enemies are protected with reflecting shields. The Shield
Killer, another one of Jeff's tools, can also remove enemy shields, but it
sometimes fails to work and affects only one target at a time. I usually
prefer the Neutralizer because of its 100% success rate, though the Shield
Killer can be useful in fights where you need a shield yourself.
Night Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; protects from Flash;
Defense +15
Obtained: -gift box in Magicant
-Saturn Valley store, after clearing Magicant
Equip the first Night Pendant you find in Moonside on Ness. Ness benefits
the most from immunity to Flash because of the effectiveness of his "bash"
and his ability to heal others.
Non-Stick Frypan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +50
Obtained: Winters Drugstore
Buy the Non-Stick Frypan in Winters once Ness learns Teleport[alpha].
Pair of Dirty Socks
Use: solidifies an enemy; gone after one use
Obtained: return the Contact Lens to a man on the second floor of the
Bakery in Fourside
To find the Contact Lens, walk north-northwest from the miner's shack in
Dusty Dunes Desert and look for a sign talking about the Contact Lens. The
Lens is northeast of this sign.
Pak of Bubble Gum
Use: -entices the Bubble Monkey to join Jeff and allows Jeff to ride
Tessie to southern Winters
-allows Jeff to get through the Fourth Sanctuary Cave
Obtained: talk to a woman in the Drugstore in Winters
Use the Bubble Gum when you reach a coiled up rope in the Fourth Sanctuary
Cave. Give this item to Escargo Express once Jeff joins Ness and Paula in
Threed.
Pasta di Summers
Use: recovers about 110 HP
Peanut Cheese Bar
Use: recovers about 100 HP
Pencil Eraser
Use: eliminates any pencil shaped statues
The last pencil statue you are likely to erase is either the one in
Winters or the one in the Monkey Cave. Give the Pencil Eraser to Escargo
Express when you are done with it.
Pharaoh' Curse
Use: poisons a single, random target; gone after one use
Picnic Lunch
Use: recovers about 80 HP
Picture Postcard
Use: none
Piggy Jelly
Use: recovers about 300 HP
Piggy Nose
Use: helps you find Magic Truffles in Deep Darkness
Obtained: merchant in Scaraba
"Use" the Piggy Nose while in Deep Darkness to help you locate Magic
Truffles. The Piggy Nose gives more specific directions the closer the
party is to a Magic Truffle. This item can be a little frustrating to use,
but it's almost essential if you want to find Magic Truffles on your own.
Pixie's Bracelet
Use: equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +60, Luck +10;
protects from Hypnosis
Obtained: gift box in Stonehenge
Equip the Pixie's Bracelet on Paula the first time it's obtained.
Pizza
Use: recovers about 120 HP
To order a Pizza, enter a Mach Pizza store in Twoson or Threed and learn
their phone number. Call Mach Pizza over any phone and wait 3 minutes for
the pizza to be delivered.
Plain Roll
Use: recovers about 80 HP
Plain Yogurt
Use: recovers about 160 HP
Platinum Band
Use: equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +40
Obtained: -gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-Summers shop ($6899)
-Scaraba marketplace ($3899)
Pop Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +16
Obtained: inside a locker in Snow Wood Boarding House
The Pop Gun needs to be obtained in order for Jeff to leave Snow Wood.
Sell it once the Stun Gun is found in Brick Road's maze in southern
Winters.
Popsicle
Use: recovers about 18 HP
Protein Drink
Use: recovers about 80 HP
Protractor
Use: measures angles
PSI Caramel
Use: recovers about 20 PP
Rabbit's Foot
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +3, Speed +40;
protects from Paralysis
Obtained: gift box in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave, just before the Shining
Spot
Keep this in Paula's inventory, but don't equip it until Ness records all
Sanctuary melodies. 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
being hit by Starstorm.
Rain Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; reduces damage from Freeze
by about 96%; Defense +15
Obtained: -casket in the Pyramid in Scaraba
-Saturn Valley store, after clearing Magicant
If Ness and Paula are protected from Flash and Fire respectively, I
suggest you sell the Rain Pendant. The Rain Pendant isn't very useful
because only a few enemies use Freeze, and you should usually use PSI
Shield[sigma] to defend against Freeze anyway. The Speed boost provided by
the Crystal Charm is also more useful for Jeff because the damage
inflicted by Bottle Rockets depends on Jeff's Speed (source: starmen.net),
and the Crystal Charm allows Jeff to attack before most enemies.
Receiver Phone
Use: allows certain NPCs to call Ness
Obtained: Apple Kid's mouse
Ness is required to carry the Receiver Phone at all times.
Red Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +25
Obtained: Saturn Valley store
Refreshing Herb
Use: equivalent to Healing[beta]; heals poison, nausea, colds, sunstroke,
sleep, crying, and feeling strange
Buy a couple Refreshing Herbs before going through the Underground Passage
in Threed just in case someone gets poisoned if Ness hasn't learned
Healing[beta].
Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +20
Obtained: -Drugstore in Happy Happy Village
-Twoson Dept. Store
Rock Candy
Use: increases Speed, Guts, Vitality, IQ, or Luck by 1 (or 2, with a
condiment)
Obtained: -gift box in the Sixth Sanctuary Cave
-gift box in Deep Darkness
-gift box in the Seventh Sanctuary Cave
Use the Rock Candy with a Sugar Packet or a Jar of Delisauce to boost the
stat increase to 2. Sugar Packets are sold in Twoson and Scaraba. To apply
a condiment, place the condiment and the Rock Candy in the same person's
inventory and use the Rock Candy.
NOTE: There is a bug in the game that lets you use the Rock Candy an
infinite number of times. A detailed explanation on how to exploit
this bug can be found at starmen.net.
Royal Iced Tea
Use: recovers about 60 HP
Ruler
Uses: -needed to get through the Monkey Cave
-measures the length of objects
The Ruler is used only in the Monkey Cave in Dusty Dunes Desert. Jeff
starts with this item, but get rid of it as soon as you can; a free one
can be found in a gift box within the Monkey Cave.
Rust Promoter
Use: inflicts about 200 HP of damage to all robotic enemies in battle;
sometimes fails to work
This item doesn't work on Starman type enemies.
Rust Promoter DX
Use: inflicts about 400 HP of damage to all robotic enemies in battle;
sometimes fails to work
This item doesn't work on Starman type enemies.
Salt Packet
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Sand Lot Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +15
Obtained: Drugstore in Happy Happy Village
Saturn Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +90, Luck +40
Obtained: talk to the rescued Mr. Saturn after defeating the Starman
Deluxe
Sea Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; protects from Fire, Freeze,
and Flash; Defense +20
Obtained: gift box in the northeast corner of the Lost Underworld
Secret Herb
Use: has a chance of reviving someone unconscious to 25% of max HP; heals
diamondization, paralysis, poison, nausea, colds, sunstroke, sleep,
crying, and feeling strange
Use Secret Herbs to cure diamondization and paralysis. Make sure at least
2 party members are carrying a Secret Herb in case one of them becomes
unable to use items. Don't try to revive someone unconscious with it
unless you have no other choice.
Shield Killer
Use: tool for Jeff; eliminates any shields protecting a single target; may
fail to work; can be used many times
Obtained: repair the Broken Pipe (30 IQ needed)
The Shield Killer's main drawback is it occasionally fails to work. Use it
only when you need a shield yourself. Use the Neutralizer otherwise
because it has a 100% success rate.
Shiny Coin
Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +70, Luck +30
Obtained: store in the Lost Underworld
Show Ticket
Use: grants admission to the music hall in Topolla Theater

-Fourside Dept. Store
Shyness Book
Use: cures the Tendas of their shyness
Obtained: bookshelf in Onett Library, after the Starman Deluxe is defeated
Give this book to the Chief of Tenda Village to cure the Tendas of their
shyness. Once the Tendas are no longer shy, one of them opens the way into
the Seventh Sanctuary Cave for you.
Silver Bracelet
Use: equip on "arms" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +15
Obtained: Saturn Valley store
Skip Sandwich
Use: recovers 6 HP and increases walking speed for 10 seconds
The Skip Sandwich can make Ness walk fast enough to avoid most enemies.
Skip Sandwich DX
Use: recovers about 6~7 HP and increases walking speed for 20 seconds
The Skip Sandwich DX can make Ness walk fast enough to avoid most enemies.
Slime Generator
Use: tool for Jeff; solidifies a single, random target
The success rate of the Slime Generator is high enough against some
enemies to prevent them from attacking in most rounds if repeatedly used.
Slingshot
Use: weapon for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Offense +12
Obtained: Twoson Dept. Store
Slingshots and Yo-yos have slightly lower accuracies than the party's
standard weapons and cannot get SMAAAASH!! hits, but their damage is not
reduced by shields. Avoid using them for the most part.
Snake
Use: inflicts 1~4 HP of damage and has a roughly 50% chance of poisoning
a random target; gone after one use
Snake Bag
Use: contains an infinite number of Snakes
Obtained: Scaraba marketplace
The Snake Bag isn't a great item, but I sometimes give it to Jeff or Poo
and have them use it when they have nothing else to do.
Sound Stone
Use: plays all recorded Sanctuary melodies
Obtained: Buzz Buzz
The Sound Stone can't be removed from Ness's inventory once obtained.
However, if Ness's inventory is full at the time Buzz Buzz tries to give
this item to Ness, it is sent to Ness's sister Tracy instead. This frees a
space in Ness's inventory for most of the game.
The best way to fill 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.
Souvenir Coin
Use: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +80, Luck +35
Obtained: gift box in Deep Darkness, west of the crashed helicopter
Spectrum Beam
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +78
Obtained: repair the Broken Cannon (32 IQ needed)
The Broken Cannon can be bought in Scaraba. You probably won't need the
Spectrum Beam if Jeff has the Heavy Bazooka.
Speed Capsule
Use: permanently increases Speed by 1
Obtained: -casket in the Pyramid in Scaraba
-gift box in Stonehenge
-gift box in the Eighth Sanctuary Cave
I usually use Speed Capsules on Paula to help her put up PSI Shields
before the enemy attacks.
Spicy Jerky
Use: recovers about 250 HP
Obtained: -gift box in Stonehenge
-Tenda Village store
Sprig of Parsley
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Stag Beetle
Use: solidifies a single, random target; gone after one use
Obtained: -Saturn Valley store
-talk to a Mr. Saturn in the cave below the store after
defeating Master Belch
Star Pendant
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; protects from Fire, Freeze,
Flash, and Paralysis
The Major Psychic Psycho in the Eighth Sanctuary Cave has a 1/128 chance
of carrying the Star Pendant.

Sudden Guts Pill
Use: doubles Guts for 1 fight
Obtained: -gift box in Saturn Valley
-gift box in Dusty Dunes Desert
-gift box in the Monotoli Building
-gift box in the Sixth Sanctuary Cave
-gift box in Dungeon Man
-Hassan's Shop in Scaraba
The Sudden Guts Pill can help in some late game boss fights. Use them on
Ness to increase the chances of getting SMAAAASH!! hits.
Sugar Packet
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
Use a Sugar Packet with a Rock Candy. The Rock Candy is a food item that
increases a random stat by 1, but a Sugar Packet will boost the stat
increase to 2.
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Super Bomb
Use: inflicts about 140~400 HP of damage to its target and about 70~200 HP
of damage to adjacent targets
Obtained: most arms dealers in Fourside and later
Give Super Bombs to either Jeff or Poo and use it when their standard
attacks aren't effective.
Super Plush Bear
Use: diverts enemy attacks from the party to itself; has about 500 HP
Obtained: -Summers shop
-gift box in Dungeon Man
Enemies often attack the Super Plush Bear instead of the party while the
Bear is in someone's inventory. This item can be useful, but you shouldn't
have to go out of your way to buy it.
Suporma
Use: nothing
Obtained: Orange Kid
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
Use: weapon for Poo; Offense +30
The Starman Super in Stonehenge 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 got 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 disappear once the boss at the end of this area
is defeated, and the Sword of Kings can't be found anywhere else.
T-Rex's Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +48
Obtained: Winters Drugstore
You can go to Winters to buy the T-Rex's Bat as soon as Ness learns
Teleport[alpha], but it's not worth the money because a better weapon
becomes 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: equip as "other" on Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Defense +60, Luck +25
Obtained: trade 6 Horns of Life with a Tenda in Tenda Village
Don't trade for the Talisman Coin; a better item can be found in the next
village.
Talisman Ribbon
Use: equip as "other" on Paula; Defense +60, Luck +25
Obtained: gift box in Dungeon Man
Obtain the Talisman Ribbon on your way to Dungeon Man's yellow submarine.
Tee Ball Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +8
Obtained: Onett Drugstore
Buy and equip the Tee Ball Bat before fighting Frank. Sell it once the
Sand Lot Bat is bought in Happy Happy Village.
Teddy Bear

Obtained: -gift box in Polestar Preschool in Twoson
-Twoson Dept. Store
-trash can in northeast Threed
-gift box in the gold mine in Dusty Dunes Desert
-Fourside Dept. Store
Enemies often attack the Teddy Bear instead of the party while the Bear is
in someone's inventory. It can be useful when Ness first travels through
Peaceful Rest Valley and the Underground Passage in Threed.
Tendakraut
Use: grants access to the Tenda settlement in the Lost Underworld
Obtained: Tenda Chief
Thick Fry Pan
Use: weapon for Paula; Offense +20
Obtained: -Threed Drugstore

Tin of Cocoa
Use: condiment
Obtained: -Burglin Park in Twoson
-Fourside Department Store
-Scaraba marketplace
To use a condiment, place the condiment and a food item in the same
person's inventory. The condiment is automatically applied when the food
item is used. If the two go well together, the amount of HP/PP recovered
increases by 50~100%. Otherwise, there is no boost, and the condiment is
wasted.
Tiny Ruby
Use: grants access to the second floor of the Museum in Summers
Obtained: Poo starts with this item
Give the Tiny Ruby to the man on the second floor of the Museum in Summers
once Poo joins Ness.
Toothbrush
Use: solidifies a single, random enemy
Toy Air Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +32
Obtained: arms dealer in Threed
Buy the Toy Air Gun if Jeff doesn't have the Magnum Air Gun.
Travel Charm
Use: equip on "body" for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; protects from Paralysis
Obtained: -traveling entertainer, after unlocking the shack in Onett
-Burglin Park in Twoson
-gift box in Peaceful Rest Valley
The Travel Charm isn't very useful at the time it's obtained because no
enemies around the first two towns can use Paralysis. Sell any Travel
Charms you find for $30.
Trick Yo-yo
Use: weapon for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Offense +46
Obtained: Fourside Dept. Store
Slingshots and Yo-yos have slightly lower accuracies than the party's
standard weapons and cannot get SMAAAASH!! hits, but their damage is not
reduced by shields. Avoid using them for the most part.
Trout Yogurt
Use: recovers about 30 HP
Obtained: maid on the 48th floor of the Monotoli Building
Ultimate Bat
Use: weapon for Ness; Offense +68
Obtained: store in the Lost Underworld
Vial of Serum
Use: cures poison
Healing[beta] should be sufficient for curing poison.
Viper
Use: poisons a single random target
Obtained: -casket in the Pyramid in Scaraba
-Scaraba marketplace
The Viper seems to have a success rate of 100% even against bosses.
Vital Capsule
Use: permanently increases Vitality by 1; Vitality determines max HP
Obtained: -trash can in Belch's Factory
-gift box in the Monotoli Building
Use Vital Capsules on Paula as soon as they're obtained. Paula needs the
most help in surviving battles, and these capsules can offset her
naturally low Vitality.
Wad of Bills
Use: frees the Runaway Five and allows Ness and Paula to go to Threed
Obtained: Everdred in Twoson, after Paula joins Ness
Watch the Runaway Five show in Chaos Theater and "use" the Wad of Bills
while next to the manager to free the Runaway Five.
Wet Towel
Use: heals sunstrokes
Healing[alpha] should be sufficient for healing sunstroke.
Xterminator Spray
(Thanks to: C.V. Reynolds)
Use: inflicts about 200 HP of damage to all bugs; can be used many times
I have never obtained the Xterminator Spray or heard of anyone using it.
According to starmen.net, the Mad Taxi has a 1/128 chance of dropping
this item.
Yogurt Dispenser
Use: grants access to the 48th floor of the Monotoli Building; inflicts
minor damage when used in battle
Obtained: Talah Rama in the Monkey Cave
Give the Yogurt Dispenser to the maid standing outside the Monotoli
Building to gain access to the 48th floor. When you use this item in
battle, a random enemy takes 2~4 HP of damage.
Yo-yo
Use: weapon for Ness, Paula, or Jeff; Offense +6
Obtained: Onett Drugstore
Slingshots and Yo-yos have slightly lower accuracies than the party's
standard weapons and cannot get SMAAAASH!! hits, but their damage is not
reduced by shields. The Yo-yo can be useful against the First Sanctuary
Boss.
Zip Gun
Use: weapon for Jeff; Offense +40
Obtained: arms dealer in Dusty Dunes Desert
Buy the Zip Gun if Jeff doesn't have the Laser Gun.
Zombie Paper
Use: opens the way to the Underground Passage in Threed

Hotel after doing so and the entrance to the Underground Passage will
open.
