Mother 3 Hints for Gameboy Advance
There are certain enemies in the game that give an extrodinary amount of experince, though there's always a catch.
In Chapter 1, the rare to see Soot Dumpling gives
1000 EXP. But it's kind of rare to see, as it only appears out of Lighter's house on occassion, only in Chapter 1. It also has a really strong defense, and within a few turns, it blows away!
Another enemie in Chapter 1 is the rare Beanling, located in the Sunshine forest. It gives 538 EXP, but it also packs a bit of a fight, so be prepared.
In Chapter 4, the so very rare Black Beanling makes a return in the Sunshine Forest. This guy is very hard to find, but gives 16080 EXP! But it also packs a punch...
Also in Chapter 4, the Top Dogfish, located by the lakes near Club Titiboo, also has an exceptional amount...2032 EXP.
It's alos a rare fetch, but considering the DP value, the rough fight is worth it.
Those are pretty much the biggest Experience boosters.
Good luck!

Are you in need of some DP?
Are the average enemies just not cutting it for you?
Never fear, for new strategies are here!
You aren't able to gain DP until Chapter 4, but there are some easy and hard ways to gain a hefty amount.
-The secret stash of Thunder Bombs lacated behind Wess' house sell for 25DP
-The "Chick Trick"
-Beating a Top Dogfish, and selling the Meteotite dropped for 2500DP (Located by the ponds in the forest near Titiboo, very rare and difficult to beat)
-Working at the Clayman factory, 200DP per shift
-Defeating a Bright Smile, gaining 2000DP (Located in the highway tunnels, rare)
-Stock up on Doggy Biscuits and sell them to the dog on the highway to recieve bombs, selling for 500DP...each!
I hope this helped...at least a wee bit!
There are many things eggs can do.
For starts, you can make a profit.
If you wait for it to hatch into a chick, you can sell the chick for 50DP.
A little longer, it'll grow into a chicken, which sells for 200DP!
Taking an egg into a hot springs, (hint, hint) will turn it into a Hot Springs Egg, which will sell for 30DP...
But it also can recover your Health 100HP!
Amazing!
Any time after Chapter 3, after coming down the rail road, there's a hot spring located near the left of the Chimera Lab.
By this hot spring, a chicken is hanging around. Talk to her, and she'll give you a free egg!
Once this egg becomes, "something else," talk to her again and she'll give you another.
This is a helpful hint in many ways...

I have heard that this boss gives some people quite a bit of trouble. I know an easy way of beating it, though, and it goes like this:
1st turn~
Lucas uses PK Sheild[Alpha] on himself
Kumatora(I named her Mercy...very unfitting name) uses Offence Down[Alpha]
Boney uses a Saltwater Gun, if he has one.
2nd turn~
Lucas uses PK Sheild[Alpha] on Kumatora/Mercy
Kumatora/Mercy uses Offence Down again
Boney starts to throw bombs or other explosives.
3rd turn~
Lucas uses Pk Sheild[Alpha] on Boney.
Kumatora/Mercy uses PK Freeze[Alpha], although, if she has it, use Freeze[Beta]
Boney...keeps throwing bombs/other explosives.
***Renew shields if required!
4th turn~
Lucas uses Defence Up[Omega], raising everyone's Defence greatly, he may also renew Shields.
This makes the Steel Mechorilla's attacks quite weak. Therefore, healing isn't much of a concern.
Kumatora/Mercy keeps using PK Freeze, although she may use PK Lifeup[Beta] to heal if at all needed. She can also use Defence Down[Aalpha], making the others' attacks more powerful.
Boney attacks, either with his standard attack or explosives.
***Renew shields if required!
5th Turn~
Lucas tries PK Flash. If succesful, it should give the Steel Mechorilla the 'Crying' status. Its attacks will most likely miss after that.
Kumatora/Mercy Keeps using PK Freeze.
Boney attacks/uses explosives.
***Be sure to renew shields if necessary!
6th Turn~
Lucas uses PK Offence Up[Alpha] on himself. This, combined with Kumatora/Mercy's Defence Down makes all physical attacks more powerful.
Kumatora/Mercy keeps using PK Freeze, although may heal if necessary.
Boney keeps attacking as usual.
***Make sure to renew shields if necessary!
7th Turn~
Lucas uses PK Offence Up[Alpha] on Boney. He doesn't need to use it on Kumatora/Mercy because she will keep using PK Freeze.
Boney just keeps attacking, using healing items if at all necessary.
***Make sure to renew shields if necessary!
Also, if you have the patience, try grinding(repeatedly fighting enemies) to get PK Shield[Omega] for Lucas. This will help immensely!
*****Make certain that you DO NOT uswe PK Thunder three times on the Steel Mechorilla! If you do, the Steel Mechorilla will go beserk! It will attack everyone powerfully, making chances of victory slim!
Happy Earthbounding,

Here are a few tips on how to beat Mecha Drago, if you're stuck:
1) Make sure you're at least Level 15.
2) Remember to use the Drago Fang on the first turn! Otherwise, your attacks will only do 1 Damage each.
3) Have lots of healing supplies at the ready.
4) Make sure to use Strengthen up and Toughen Up. They'll help a lot.
5) Make sure to the best posssible equipment possible.
6) When he does his final attack, which does about 200 Damage, PRESS A AS FAST AS YOU CAN! You won't survive otherwise! Meaning if you fail, you must start over! So be warned!
