SCENE 26 - SAVED FOR A RAINY DAY

Location: Threed / Winters / Rainy Circle

Maps: Map 1, Map 2, Map 3



Back in Threed, the Runaway Five will leave you with no clear indication of what to do next. "To get to Summers, we need to go back to Threed", Paula said. Do you remember a certain contraption that flies from earlier in the game?


Head to the northeast graveyard and down into the zombie prison where the Sky Runner crashed. You'll find two guys who have fixed it up. Check it and Jeff will make the final repairs. Now you'll climb in and be on your way to Winters.


Back in Winters, Dr. Andonuts will agree to remodel the Sky Runner, and suggest that in the meantime you check out the Shining Spot north of Stonehenge. Remember that? Now that Ness is in town, it's time to challenge the boss. Be sure to use the Instant Revitalizing Device now.


Before leaving the lab, make sure Paula is carrying the Bag of Dragonite you got in the desert. It will be really helpful now. Call Escargo Express if necessary. You shouldn't need food since you won't be going into any dungeon areas.


TIP! You might be tempted to use this chance to teleport to other towns to do stuff. DON'T!

When you Teleport back to Winters, you won't wind up by the lab -- you'll arrive in northern Winters, by the Snow Wood Boarding School. What's more, all the easy enemies there have been replaced by difficult extraterrestrial enemies who can wipe you out easily. Beware!


The boss, Shrooom!, is tough. He'll mushroomize someone on his first turn, so try to hit him hard early.

Have Ness try PSI Flash B -- it's been known to wipe Shrooom! out in one shot. Paula should use PSI Fire, and Jeff should use either a Big Bottle Rocket or other explosves. If anyone gets mushroomized, have them Defend.


After you whack Shrooom!, you'll gain access to the Rainy Circle, the fourth "Your Sanctuary" location. Since this is now 4 of 8 Sanctuaries, as you can imagine, you're roughly halfway through EarthBound now.


After you collect the melody, return to the lab and talk to Dr. Andonuts, who has remodeled the Sky Runner. Now save your game, use the Revitalizing Device again, and then climb aboard! Next destination -- the sunny shores of Summers!


TIP! After you've defeated Shrooom!, you can easily get to the Pencil Statue to the east of the cave. Use the Pencil Eraser on it. This is the last Pencil Statue in the game, and this is the best time to get rid of it. Once it's gone, you can give the Pencil Eraser to Escargo Express. You won't need it anymore.
