Today's Gameplay Point:


Yes, you are a DRUG HIPPIE buster. This one was unexepectantly long. I had it all set, and realized I had forgotten about Dalaam and the Pink Cloud melody! So that's what today's Gameplay Point will be. I'm also throwing in heading to Scaraba in there, but you could have done that in the last GPP. But head to Scaraba some time during this GPP. Whether it's before or after the 6th melody. Once you have done all of that, proceed no further, and save your game.


Today's Challenges:


  • Don't use offensive PSI on the Kraken. And no Big Bottle Rockets and Super Bombs!
  • Collect all the Pink Cloud items before you face Thunder and Storm.
  • Don't use PSI Freeze on Thunder and Storm.
  • When facing Thunder and Storm, have Ness get in one SMAAAAAASH! attack, before they are defeated.


Mother 2 Factoids:


Donate Blood to the Local Red Cross. Ok, the change I chose to do is pretty lame, but I couldn't find anything else that involved pretty pictures. I hit a snag, and realized that Tomato doesn't cover much more after Scaraba. So I will have to make due for the rest of the GPPs. Anyway, as for all the Hospitals in EarthBound, they once had a red cross on all the buildings (even the nurses had crosses). The reason? Either copyright junk with the Red Cross, or the most likely reason is that it is a CROSS (see the NOA Guidelines), which may convert kids to have moral standards or something. I dunno.

Thanks to Tomato for providing this Mother 2 information! Visit his Mother 2 to EarthBound and Back Again translation site for more Mother 2 to EB comparisons!



Gameplay Hints/Tips:


Ice this time. Poo should have the Gamma of PSI Freeze too. This makes him very useful. The Kraken can be pretty formidable depending on when you fight him. If you fight him after you defeat Thunder and Storm, he should be no problem. But the EXP. you get from him might help you out in the Pink Cloud Caves. So it's up to you. An all out PSI Freeze attack should defeat him very quickly. The same goes for Thunder and Storm. Make sure you have the Franklin Badge! I also suggest giving it to Paula since she has low HP, and her attacks are highly needed. Jeff's typical artillery works as well. Finally, you'll probably come across a piece of Rock Candy in the Pink Cloud caves. Before you gobble it down, remember the "Rock Candy Trick". If you have several condiments with your Rock Candy (I suggest Delisauce, or Sugar), and use the Rock Candy in battle, one of your stats will be raised. But that's not all. You'll still have the Rock Candy! Only the condiment is used. You can do this several times (if not infinite), as long as you do it in battle, and have at least 2 condiments. Suger and Delisauce will raise the stat by 2. So invest in those.
