Ever wonder what the magic banana in MR1 does?

try raising two separate monsters the spoiled way - all-rest-no-work, candy/apple cake items, meat meals (purebred pixies work great), until the word "spoil" appears in the raising style box. store them in the freezer, and combine them using the banana as a secret ingredient.

if you follow this right, you will get a purebred ape.

a word of warning: apes are cool, but re extremely lazy, and it only takes an expert trainer to maintain it's style to even/easy.

P.S: The Magic banana is plentiful in the jungle expedition.

I used an Ape/Gali named Genghis Kong to do alot in MR1, and he seemed to be a very dilligent, dependable worker because of that sub-type...not to mention his stats RULED! I must have earned over $1 million with him ALONE, considering how I had to compensate for a data corruption by splitting off three different files from one, using my frozen gold ape to crunch the A-class competition in each file to raise my cash reserves to decent levels.
