My Notes
  
    Important
In sng-ign's guide, he points out that you shouldn't talk with the lady in Moon Forest Hotel B3 Room 305, until after you have completed the 100 battles in the Intelligent Sea Server Room. If you do, you will miss the chance for a Ranking Star.
 
    Battle Timer
Usually when you finish a battle, you'll get a status message based on the remaining time. You won't get one if you level up, or if the last rogue runs away. (This is the same with fishing.)
 

time remaining
2:00 - 1:48
1:47 - 1:24
1:23 - 0:36
0:35 - 0:00

    Pocket Taxi Locations
Pocket Taxi's (and Tent's) can only be used outside of domes, but not in enclosed areas like caves. The locations will appear in the list after you've visited them. You can't view this list unless you're outside. At one point in the game, the list will be cleared and you'll need to go back to each location again before they'll reappear. You can not use a Pocket Taxi from the Tokione Skyroad, or between Shine and Bravo.

    Good Save Points
 1) At Blue Sands if you decide to not catch a Sand Weasel.
2) Before accepting the 4-star License from the Receptionist at Shine.
3) After you obtain the Doll Stone / before you talk with Joey.
4) Before talking with Chief in Fonthene (back right hut, old man, sitting at table).
 
    Blasted Sand Weasels!
To catch one, go to the Blue Sands Penthouse (room beside pool on roof), and talk to the Maid (in the shower), then Joseph (guy sitting on couch) , then Chappy (the dog). Chappy will follow you outside to the sands. Go a little bit left of the Skypod and stand still for a few seconds and a Sand Weasel will come up to you. Back away (move Opoona towards you by pressing down/pulling back) in short increments to get the Weasel to follow you as far as you can. Turn the Hoverboard off, and slowly walk towards the Weasel. He'll run away. Turn on the Hoverboard and chase him, but don't get too close. If you use the Hoverboard, you'll need to turn it off before the Weasel stops or he'll just keep running away. Try using the Hoverboard for a short distance to get you closer than walking, then work on your timing. You have to approach the Weasel from behind and just bump into him to start a battle. You do not have to dash at them or press a button. They're easy to defeat, so consider catching three of them. Having a few extra will come in handy later.
 
    The Fortune Pie's Taste Horrible..
I had a 'fortune' from Debia that said the day was going to be Sunny, so I purchased 99 Fortune Pies. It took me a long time to eat them all, and only 7 of them increased my Luck. Roulette Pizza's are more expensive, but at least they have a minimum of +1. I want a refund!
 
    Dark Burrows Entrance
Once you have achieved the Angler Professor License, finished the Meditation Tower, and gathered 7 Partisans, goto Orcalphin Coast again and there will be a new option (to go to the Dark Burrows) on the Orcalphin ride.
 
    Spirit Locations
Wind Spirit -- Tokione Region Wind Ravine
Fire Spirit -- Lifeborn Volcano Old Factory Remains
Earth Spirit -- Rock Castle Spirit Altar 
Water Spirit -- Spirit Lake (B3)
Light Aura -- Meditation Tower
 
    Two Non-Labeled Islands
The one north of Artiela is the underwater entrance to the Dark Burrows, and the one south of Intelligent Sea is the Earth Cave.
 
    Medals From Artihella
After spending 10,000 MT at the Pocket Pincher stand (that's 100 turns) I have these results: 
        1 Platinum
        15 Gold
        25 Silver
        36 Copper
        23 Aluminum
 
    Random Notes
> Check the shadows under floating enemies for hidden bombs.

> Rikhael is difficult to see because he's in a very dark area. He'll be standing beside the Museum elevator near the outer conveyor belt. When you talk to him, answer 'No' every time and he will give you a Museum Pass.

> When selecting enemies during a battle, pressing Left is usually best.

> Intelligent Sea, Shine Co, Elevator 3, Office Area 9F. In the room left of the elevator with the large pink floor tiles and office desks, there will be a woman walking around near desk 6. If you talk to her after you get your Theater Coordinator License and answer 'Yes', she will look at you curiously and your Fame will increase by one point.

> Artiela TV Tower Employee Dorm 23F. Talk to the girl laying down in the first bed in 23P after you've found a fill-in dancer for Dance Future DX and your Integrity will get a +2 bonus.
 
    How The Battle System Works
 You're weapon is the Energy Bonbon. It's a ball that floats above your head (or under you) and always matches your outfit. You can use it to hit things.


(images from the instruction manual)

Hold down the Control Stick to start charging the Bonbon. The longer you hold it, the faster and more powerful it will be. A display will show you when it reaches full power. You can let it fly at any time while it's charging. You can change the enemy you are targeting at any time. (See the Controller section for more information on button options.)

The Bonbon launches in an arch towards the enemy. The direction you hold the Control Stick is the inverse of that arch. (You have the option to invert the invert in the options menu.) So, you can curve it around enemies. This lets you take them out in the order you want to. Most of the time you'll *need* to take them out in a certain order. Sometimes there are things you can target that you don't want to hit, like bombs!

As the story advances you'll gain assistance in battle from elemental sprits. They'll float around for a while (don't hit them!) and when they sparkle you'll be able to target them. Hit them and they'll help you out. Eventually, you will be leveled up enough that you won't need the extra help, but sometimes they come in handy.

You can modify the Bonbon with up to 2 Coats and 3 Cores. (There are at least 10 different types of Coats.) Coat placement is essential. The top coat hits first, so use a Plasma over a Thunder, or a Solar over an Ice, and always have things like Nature and Parasite on the bottom. Core placement does not matter. There are 8 Attack, 7 Defense and 25 Other types of Cores. Most can be purchased at various stores, but some are difficult to obtain, and there are even others that are unique and you'll really have to work for some of those.

You really have to see a battle in action. YouTube has some decent video's that show off how it works.
