Monster Creation list???

Monster Rancher Metropolis: Monster Rancher DS Archive (DS): Japanese DS Games Archive: Monster Farm DS: Misc. Q&A (post all new topics here, we'll make more sections later): Monster Creation list???
By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 08:58 am:

Usually one of the first sections we try to put up is the CD/Passwords list for a game, listing all monsters. What do I call this list, since sounds can be used as well as drawings? Is the above title ok?


By GM on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 12:12 pm:

How about a slightly different approach for this one?

One thing we can do is have seperate sections for the three
different methods of regeneration. We can also be a bit more
practical and consolidate everything in a "Regeneration List",
which would largely be the same but would be significantly
neater. The only problem would be having to make different
sections for every monster breed, but that's a capacity issue.
What can we get away with?

If we were to have a single Regeneration List directory without
the three subdirectories, it'd save lots of bandwidth, but end up
utterly confusing. However, this can be remedied by taking all
the submissions and organizing them according to their type.
It's a small bit of elbow grease, and I personally consider it to be
the best option.

The thing we have to worry about, though, is how to present
these things. The GBA carts are obvious, but what of sounds and
images? Images are too much for the board, after all. We also
have to present the sounds in such a way as to ensure people
don't mispronounce them and end up with the wrong monster
time and time again. That could cause a great deal of
frustration. Furthermore, what of odd onomotopaeic noises?
Ideally, an audio file would work, but once again, too much for
the site.

I propose a plea of assistance to Mr. Fenrick to host audio and
image files.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 12:33 pm:

We can have unlimited sub-categories. Sort of like how, in the existing CD lists, one clicks Pixie and sees all the sub-breeds' names. We can keep going deeper like that.

So, with the old CD lists as a reference, we could put two or three (or however-many) sub-categories of regeneration types under each breed. So, for example, when clicking Pixie/Worm a user would see Passwords, GBA Carts, Sketches, Sounds.

BTW, I'll be in chat tonight from 8:30pm Pacific til about 10pm Pacific.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 12:45 pm:

test area is up, what do people think?

The main breeds page will be in alphabetical order.
The subs will be listed by book order (with the book # in parenthsis).
The creation options will be in the same order under every sub-breed.

General warning to all new users: Do not expect the list to be complete immeditely! We post subs as we find them! There will be a MiscQ&A thread for posting new types as they are found, whiners will be suspended from the site!


By GM on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 01:38 pm:

Ah, well, that settles it. Subdirectories it is, then. Just name it
Regeneration List and we're in business.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 11, 2007 - 01:42 pm:

ok, let me know about any other issues.
Any Moderator can add new monsters to this list, it would be helpful to get started on the known main breeds.

I'll also set this up for MF:O, as well.

We'll probably set up an FAQ section modelled upon the MR2 FAQ section, with an unlocking guide as the first thread.


By Lisa Shock on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 02:22 pm:

When I get my copy I will play friend mode with you. I have played Animal Crossing with a guy in Australia, so I am not afraid of the server lag, at least not much.

Thanks for the passwords info! I'll change the board setup ASAP.


By GM on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 02:25 pm:

I see. Certain parts of the drawing grid correspond to certain
breeds. I assume something else happens to the grid after you've
risen a rank or two, but I'm not sure what that might be. A bit of
research and trial and error should yield some interesting results.

I plan on performing a few frequency tests with the voice
regeneration once I get the game.


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 02:27 pm:

well a 60 second battle via wifi will take 120.
thats the lag you may see if you play it online, I was more of a Soft core Monster rancher fan. I'd spend more of my time exploring with monster when i could than Becoming S class.


By GM on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 02:39 pm:

I've no trouble communicating with my friends halfway across the
globe with my DS Lite and wireless connection fairly close by. We'll
see how it goes on my end.


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 02:47 pm:

*chuckles* I just played pokemon DS via the internet This morning with a Friend in the Land down under, I live in the center of the United states. And the Lag i've experianced isn't in the games isn't connection based, its always been game calculation based.

But something tells me this isn't Lag, Its how the Battle Was ment to be played so theres ample time for both sides to get the proper information and translate it in to the game while sending corrisponding information back to its opponent DS.

I personally find the 3 on 3 battles Rough O_O


By GM on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 03:44 pm:

Ah, I see. Doesn't sound too bad.

3 on 3 battles return, eh? I assume they're like MR4's switch-in
battles.


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 03:46 pm:

Yea they are


By GM on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 03:46 pm:

By the way, how many monsters can you raise on the ranch at
once? Is it back to single-monster raising?


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 04:02 pm:

Right now i can only have one


By Lisa Shock on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 10:58 pm:

Actually, it's quite literally 'psuedo'.


By Blulightning on Friday, July 13, 2007 - 11:18 pm:

Anubis! That was the statues I was thinking of, not Ra.
And thanks for the information on Modoki, now it makes a little more sense...
but I still don't see why they have so many in the game.

I've also found a Mocchi modoki, and a special colorpandora.
The Colorpandora is the MahjongKoro from MR4.

Finally, I've found a couple of what look like Lesione subs.

Also, I'm having trouble playing the actual game. I've only been creating monsters so far.

Can anyone help me and list the stats, in the order they appear? I don't know if I'm building life or strength, and etc for the other stats. I have yet to fight a battle, cause I have no idea what I'm doing.


By MrMister on Saturday, July 14, 2007 - 11:08 pm:

OKAY, The guy on the horse who gives you the Mew doll says 'say the name of a country with a strong soccer team'. I tried 'Brazil' and 'Germany' in a Japanese accent, and 'Nippon'(I think that means Japan?), I got a gold piroro, and some regular Modokis. Then I said 'Argentina' in a Japanese accent and got a WICKED Seuzo/? That looks like a baseball.


By MrMister on Saturday, July 14, 2007 - 11:13 pm:

Fake Edit: Saying Brazil in a Japanese accent does actually give a regular old Mew.


By MrMister on Saturday, July 14, 2007 - 11:36 pm:

Saying Japanese words and speaking in a Japanese accent seems to be the best way to get good variation.


By GM on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 06:34 am:

Makes sense given the voice recognition software's development
for Japanese speakers.

It looks like, barring the Modoki monsters and that one Tiger,
virtually all of the secret monsters unlocked thus far came from
MR4. Reminds me of all the MR2 enemy monsters that could be
playable in MRA, only we've used them before.

If I may be rash for a moment, I'm going to assume that every
monster has one Modoki, one returning MR4 secret monster and
one new secret monster.


By GM on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 06:40 am:

Ah, yes. If it's not too much trouble, could everyone please post the
book number of every monster you find?


By Subster on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 04:47 pm:

mocchi/? 91/184

i drew a mocchi face O.o


By GM on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 04:56 pm:

It appears that you are likely to get a monster of a certain species if
you attempt to draw its face. Tiger got that secret breed, and
Mocchi, as you said, gave you a special Mocchi.

Could you possibly try drawing the profiles of other monster
species in the game to confirm this?

By the way, what type of secret Mocchi is it? Is it a blue silhouette,
an MR4 secret breed or a brand new one?


By Subster on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 05:03 pm:

the blue silhouette, same as the 1/184 abisu/? and i Just got pixie/? 128/184 which this pixie is also blue silhouette and i drew a pixie face (well tried to)


By GM on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 05:15 pm:

Oh, wait, nevermind. It's a Mocchimodoki. Someone else got a
Mocchi with the same number.


By Subster on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 05:21 pm:

ya i noticed it on the list afterwards :O
what exactly is it? mocchimodoki...?


By GM on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 05:51 pm:

Apparently part of a subgroup of pseudomonsters similar to
NightSickle from MR4. It seems that every breed has one.

My theory is that if you do a rather unimpressive drawing of a
monster's face, you end up with the Modoki monster, and if you
manage to make a great one, you end up with the real secret breed,
like Shiro the Tiger/?.

MFO's official site confirms that drawing an impressive Tiger face
nets you a Shiro (When I downloaded the image, the name Shiro
was part of the file name).


By Subster on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 06:30 pm:

well with confirmation i guess your theory could be true, this game is real fun so far even tho i dont understand a single word, i do read the word 'BOMBA' alot, its the only english lettered word i see. I just hope there will be a english version :P


By MrMister on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 10:00 pm:

Alright, I got a Modokiphoenix from a bunch of random lines.
There's a B rank tournament, where you fight a Dragon. For winning you get a dragon scale item thing. If you use it in a combination, you get a Dragon/?. I don't know what it is, because my farm isn't big enough to make it yet.
I did get another item that gives you a Henger/?. It's sort of green/camouflage or something.


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 01:18 am:

When did you unlock Phoenix? Was it when you got that strange
feather that Rovest found around the start of the new year? Did you
have to use it in combination to get it?

The green camo Henger is also an MR4 monster. Was that also a
combination item?

By the way, are the higher-level official tournaments still six
monsters, or are they like MR1 and MR2 with eight?


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 06:15 am:

There are tournaments with A and S at 8 battles a tourny, as well as Special invites


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 06:35 am:

Oh, God, YES! Hooray!


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 10:58 am:

I didn't get it from a combination. I drew a bunch of lines by touching the screen at two points at once to make it go all haywire.
I've gotten to A rank.
The camo Henger I got was from an item combination. I don't remember where I got the item from, though.
I think your theory on the crappy faces giving Modokis is right. I tried to replicate the Shiro drawing, and got a Modokitiger. Time to try again.


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 11:01 am:

Oh, more exciting news I forgot.
I got a bunch of cool dragons.
Dragon/Tiger
Dragon/Grey guy(A skeletal Dragon)
Dragon/Henger
Dragon/Dragon
Dragon/Beetle thing


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 11:01 am:

All of those were from random Japanese words.


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 11:14 am:

Nice. The grey guy is most definitely Joker.

What are their book numbers?


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 12:22 pm:

Modokidragon 40
Dragon/Beetle 41
Dragon/Dragon 42
Dragon/Henger 44
Dragon/Joker 45
Dragon/Tiger 46

Anyone get a Lesione as a main species? I can't seem to get one.


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 12:45 pm:

YES!! I got the yellow Tiger/? on the MFO site.
Stats are the same as Shiro. His name is kind of.. long. If I remember all my katakanas, it's Dasode Raioso? Number is 157. Cool..


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 12:48 pm:

It must be locked.

I've got the game! I'm going to begin shortly. In the meantime,
I'd like everyone to list the numbers of the un-numbered
monsters that have been mentioned, including the following:

Golem/Golem
Golem/Zan
Camo Henger/?
Mew/Mew
Phoenix-Modoki
Piroro/Piroro
Baseballboy

I may have mentioned things mentioned elsewhere here, or
mistakenly listed some things that haven't been mentioned yet.

In any case for everyone posting new monsters that haven't been
mentioned, please remember to post their book numbers!


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 01:00 pm:

Golem/Golem = 65
Golem/Zan = 70
Camo Henger = 83
ModokiPhoenix = 85
Mew/Mew = 106
Piroro/Piroro = 124
Suezo/Baseball = 173


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 01:21 pm:

Thanks!

Wow, so many of the monster breeds were clearly depicted in the
instructions booklet. Why didn't we look at that first? Heh.


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 01:52 pm:

Mocchi/Beetle, number 92.
107, 117, 93, 102, 88, 115
Got him from saying 'Konnichi-wa'

Mew/Joker = 104
102/123/130/130/140/83
Death growled 'go forth and die'.
:|


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 02:26 pm:

New Piroro subtype!

#122: Buruu (Piroro/Faruko)

I also found a new Faruko.

#58: Yuzuko (Faruko/Mew)

I can also confirm that Ogyo is, in fact, in the game. The icon is unmistakable.


By Subster on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 04:22 pm:

well I believe theres 24 breeds from the 4 x 6 blocks on trainer status page, so i think we got them all?


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 04:56 pm:

Nope, there's still one left. And it appears to be a new one. Its
silhouette can be found on the back of the box.

I've added several new monsters to the regeneration page. They
are as follows:

CP/Lesione
Golem/Pixie
Hare/Durahan
Piroro/Zan
Pixie/Ducken
Tiger/Abisu (Flazer from MR4)
Tiger/Henger
Suezo/Plant
Suezo/Tiger
Suezo/Lesione

I've also added GBA Cart data for many of them. I still have quite
a few locked GBA games at the moment, so I'll get to those later.


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 06:51 pm:

I unlocked Phoenix/Phoenix.
Number 86.
120, 150, 190, 140, 160, 110.
Those are the highest base stats I've seen.
Unfortunately I unlocked it from another mass of random lines.


By GM on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 06:58 pm:

Speaking of that, it looks like the stat cap has been removed again.
Statistics may exceed 999.


By Blulightning on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 07:43 pm:

According to someone over on the GameFAQ.com's message boards, combining monsters does not always result in higher stats for the combined monster.
From what I understand, it only increases certain stats, dependent on the type of monster.

I can't confirm this though as I'm probably going to be very busy with school work for the next few days. I'm actually supposed to be doing homework right now... >.<


By Subster on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 07:58 pm:

ya i saw yours and his posts on gamefaqs today while i was in class :P seems cool stats can exceed 999


By MrMister on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 08:21 pm:

I just got a Plant/? that looks like a mushroom.
Name: Kinotaso
Number: 147
Stats: 195, 75, 145, 95, 100, 115.
And yeah, I fought a Dragon online that had stats over 1000.


By Lisa Shock on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 09:51 pm:

added those. Please note that I'll be deleting posts as monster are added, just to trim this thread abit.


By ChetFlavin on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 07:01 am:

#32 Daisangen ????????(colorpandora/???)
I got him from shouting "Osu!" into the mic. Figured something
from the beat game would work but no idea if i just got lucky.


By GM on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 07:20 am:

Hold on a minute. That Kinotaso, does it look something like this?

https://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v720/RPGProgrammer/?action=view&current=pla_mushtan.jpg

Based on the non-modoki monsters we've found thus far, I think it's safe to say it's MR4's Mushtan.

But that Daisangen doesn't seem to be Mahjongkoro at all. It just might be another new secret breed! What does it look like?


By MrMister on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 07:43 am:

Yes, that mushtan is the thing I got.
I did get the Daisangen, I originally thought it was sushi or something.


By ChetFlavin on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 08:16 am:

The daisangen looks like the Mahjongkoro from mr4 but it came up
as #32 on mine, not #33 as its listed on the regeneration page,
which is why i posted. Could be two different monsters or just an
error made in recording data, but Daisangen is definatly 32


By GM on Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - 08:48 am:

Hmm, I just got a Mahjongkoro, and its transliteration is indeed
Daisangen. Since its number is also 32, Mahjongkoro and
Daisangen are one and the same. A small error on my part, I guess.

This once again makes it appear all the more likely that doodle
regeneration is the only way to get the awesome new secret breeds
and gimped modoki monsters.

Has anyone gotten any MR4 secret breeds via doodle regeneration?
Thus far, it looks like you can only get them from voice
regeneration.


By GM on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 07:00 am:

I've added some more monsters I've encounteded in tourneys to
the regeneration list. I've also added Modoki sections for every
monster, since it's quite obvious by now that no breeds are
exempt from the botched monsters.

However, I haven't added any GBA Cart sections to them. With
your permission, Lisa, I would like to remove the GBA Cart
sections from all the Modoki regeneration pages, seeing as they
can only be obtained via doodle regeneration.

I've also encountered what appeared to be a Beetelfish (Ogyo/
Madillo) in a wild monster battle at the start of the month early
on in the game. It was probably an Ogyo/Abisu. But I don't plan
on adding it 'till I'm 100% sure of its subtype.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 12:01 pm:

Ok, eliminate those sections.

I got my copy late last night and shrined a bit and that's about it.

I can confirm that if you carefully draw in the grid you can get the same monster overand over. I will work on a posting template here so that users can post drawn figures. (i'm at work and do not recall the total number of actual squares)

Here's a sample of what I mean:

.X...............
.X...............
.X...............
.X...............

.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX


By GM on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 03:06 pm:

If we could do that for the doodle-only secret breeds, that'd be
great. I'm having a hard time getting the new special Tiger.


By MrMister on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 06:10 pm:

I'm fairly sure the doodle only secrets require more detail than that. I had to be extremely exact in order to get the yellow dude.


By GM on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 06:33 pm:

In the case of those guys, we could always link to screenshots.

Has anyone managed to unlock the new secret Suezo? I really need
to search around the Japanese message boards for that.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 09:03 pm:

Well if there's an order, all we do is replace those X's with 1's, 2's 3's etc to indicate what to draw in what order.


By GM on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 09:35 pm:

I've tried several times to regenerate the secret Tiger to no avail.
Looks like I need to resort to stencils or using Wi-Fi combination to
get the secret Tiger from someone whom has it, like MrMister.

How did you manage to emulate it so exactly?


By GM on Wednesday, July 18, 2007 - 10:21 pm:

I've found that saying Monster Farm consistently gets you Golden
Piroro.


By MrMister on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 12:07 am:

I just payed careful attention to the grid on the background. I also used a pen, not a stylus. Easier to draw.


By MrMister on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 12:31 am:

I just got a Durahan/Durahan.
Number 51.
100, 125, 90, 115, 70, 165.
Got it from saying 'sugoi' into the microphone.
I did excavate the Durahan sword from the arctic place.


By MrMister on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 12:42 am:

Durahan/Joker
52
102, 130, 117, 120, 100, 137.

Awesome. Usin dis guy.


By GM on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 06:53 am:

Genocider is the cool.

By the way, has anyone managed to unlock Beaklon? Apparently it's
rank-based, but I can't be sure.

I'm having trouble nailing the right pronunciation for "Argentina" to
net me the Baseballboy. How many syllables did you use?


By MrMister on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 11:16 am:

Ah-jan-tina?
Also..
Durahan/Seuzo 54
Durahan/Ducken 49
Pixie/Durahan 131
Pixie/? 139 - Wearing blue armor.


By GM on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 11:28 am:

Is it different than Kasumi (Pixie/?)?

If so, could you possibly take a photo of the name and link me to
it/email it to me so I can translate it for you? A picture of the actual
monster would also be appreciated.

What does the new Durahan/Ducken look like (there's never been
one before)?


By MrMister on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 06:05 pm:

Durahan/Dragon 50

The Durahan/Ducken looks like some sort of Power Rangers ___zord. He's white with red, blue, and yellow plates on his armour. His sword is some type of wide falchion.

And yeah, the Pixie/? was Kasumi. :|


By Blulightning on Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 10:58 pm:

Hare/Dragon #74


By Blulightning on Friday, July 20, 2007 - 12:19 am:

Plant/Ducken #141
Mocchi/Dragon #94

Golem/? #71 - The one that looks like a Transformer with a G on it's chest.

Tiger/Joker #152.
Suezo/Beaklon #166.
Golem/Durahan #64.

I also got the Pixie/? and yeah it's Kasumi.


By GM on Friday, July 20, 2007 - 02:58 am:

Met Rubberabby and BigKorobocci (Hare/CP and Golem/CP) at a tourney. Ducken/Abisu, too.

Nice of them to add a few new combinations of classic breeds.


By MrMister on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 04:58 am:

I just got a Lesione/Beetle 160
I was able to get it after going on an trip to the beach place.
I made it to the actual beach area of it, and saw a Lesione swimming around in the water.


By Subster on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 01:58 pm:

the mixed breeds are insane in this, i love it


By GM on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 02:02 pm:

I'm still anxious to see the bizarre Durahan/Ducken, myself.

I've noticed a few Xenon (the third new breed) in the B Rank
tournaments, a Xenon-Modoki and a pure Xenon.


By Subster on Saturday, July 21, 2007 - 03:02 pm:

durahan/ducken lmao only thing that can be a challenege for that would be /mocchi


By MrMister on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 03:12 am:

Durahan/Lesione 53
Looks pretty cool.


By GM on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 01:04 pm:

Whilst competing in an S Rank tourney, I found what appears to be
the new secret Lesione breed. It looks like an orca whale.


By GM on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 04:50 pm:

Thanks to Chet, we have nearly completed the entire monster list.
Only a few monsters are unaccounted for, particularly most of the
Beaklons, a couple of Mews, two Zans and at least one Henger.

Also, we still need the names of the secret breeds we haven't
translated/seen yet, but know are there.


By ChetFlavin on Sunday, July 22, 2007 - 05:56 pm:

I drew a giant heart outline twice and got a surfana, anyone wanna
confirm?


By GM on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 12:42 pm:

Zan section complete. The two that were missing were Aya (Zan/Pixie) and Ray (Zan/Lesione).

The Beaklon, Henger and Mew sections still have some holes in them.

For what it's worth, drawing a bit heart gives me a locked monster, and I apparently haven't unlocked Ogyo yet.

I think it's about time this thread got trimmed.


By GM on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 06:59 pm:

According to DS Fanboy, GAMES Maya, the store which recently
held an MFDS launch event, when used in voice regeneration, gets
you a special monster.

I haven't had much luck with it, personally. Can anyone else test
this?


By ChetFlavin on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 01:34 pm:

One time on farm the mystery masked guy wanted to sell me a
beatle for 3000g, i had no moneys but thats the closest looking
coincidental item to unlocking a beaklon I've seen so far. And he's
yet to return selling that, only cartridges since then :(

I am away from my DS right now. The pronunciation would be like game-su my-ah. The a in games wouyld be long like english, the su is sort of short and dropped. Maya is said the same way we say the name of the south american people: my-ah.

Also try just saying my-ah.


By GM on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 - 02:56 pm:

When I tested it out, I pronounced it as "Gay-musu MAI-ahh". The the transition between mu and su was fairly quick, so it was more like "Gaym-su".

I'll try again a bit later. Right now I'm focusing on raising my moneymaker Mahjongkoro, Vinnie.

Dunno if you guys saw, but I posted a list of my GBA game unlocks over at GameFAQs. Not as talented with the names, but I put the numbers.


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, August 22, 2007 - 09:42 am:

Nice for gamefaqs, I guess....

Im sorry if I sound extremely like a noob, but what is a modoki? I mean I know its not a monster but....


By GM on Sunday, August 26, 2007 - 01:19 pm:

A mokoki monster in MFDS is basically a false monster, or pseudo monster, of a certain breed. They're all ? subspecies, and have completely blue, silhouette-like bodies. There's one for every breed, like Suezo-Modoki (Suezo/?), Dragon-Modoki (Dragon/?) and Zan-Modoki (Zan/?).

Their stats are a bit lower than those of the pure breed, and their statgains are quite possibly lower as well (no one's actually confirmed the latter part).

Modoki monsters can only be regenerated via doodle regeneration, usually when you end up making a rather unimpressive portrait of a breed.


By 13thm00n on Monday, August 27, 2007 - 10:15 am:

okay thanks GM, then that means there was a Ripper-Modoki in MR4,


By GM on Monday, August 27, 2007 - 03:31 pm:

Nightsickle wasn't a Ripper-Modoki, actually, though it looks quite
similar to one. Its stats were quite different overall than the normal
Ripper as opposed to simply lower than it, and its book entry
doesn't make fun of it, which is the opposite case for the modoki
monsters.


By Sensei Le Roof on Tuesday, August 28, 2007 - 08:15 am:

Just for reference, "modoki" translates to "pseudo-".


By GM on Tuesday, August 28, 2007 - 04:04 pm:

Lisa mentioned it earlier in this thread. Your statement was rather
redundant.


By 13thm00n on Saturday, September 1, 2007 - 05:16 pm:

thanks and im sorry GM that makes perfect sense now


By Dragon Trainer on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 03:25 am:

are there Doodles in this game..? and Gali...?
and how do you unlock/generate them...?
I have searched through the FAQ here and didnt see any info on how to obtain them...

do you have to beat a tourney in the S rank....as I just got my Phoenix to rank S...

sorry if theses questions have been asked already...


By Lisa Shock on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 10:12 am:

Check the regeneration list for a list of all the monsters. The unlocking thread in the FAQ is complete as far as I know.


By Ruby Wish on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 12:29 pm:

Gail is not obtainable and the only doodle is a manifestation of Zan.
Sorry


By GM on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 12:35 pm:

If it's any consolation, there's a special Abisu monster that looks like a Gali subtype called Cosmo-Abisu. Its body resembles a Gali's robes, and it has a Gali mask on top of its cane.


By Dragon Trainer on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 02:09 pm:

thanks for the responces...I wasnt sure..I thought I had seen someone post something about a "doodle code" so I thought maybe there was a special way other than what was in the unlocking thread to get them...
it has been some time since I was on this site...but Im glad I stopped by or I wouldnt have gotten this game...and I love it so far...:-)


By alphamone on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 03:07 pm:

speaking of the creation list, we should investigate the spoken words regeneration themes, someone could post a list of words in the themes, and others could investigate what the words shrine, and post them, and then we can add them to the regeneration lists.


By Thorr on Friday, February 8, 2008 - 03:52 pm:

We already have the necessary spoken words for every monster that is created by this method. They just haven't been fully posted yet. I am working on these things in my very limited spare time.

But if you want to figure them out yourself, here they all are -

Word List 1
Word List 2


By alphamone on Sunday, February 10, 2008 - 02:38 am:

torikeratopusu = corkasus

suteirakosaurusu = crevasse

that is all i have so far, it would be a bit easier if i could get a slightly higher resolution image, then i could just enter all the katakana phrases, and get the translations in quickly. the kanji would pose more of a problem, but i have plenty of spare time at the moment, but i dont realy want to get eyestrain trying to work out if i am looking at a "ten-ten" or a maru, not to mention that there are a few katakana that are hard to disnguish at lower resolutions.


By Thorr on Sunday, February 10, 2008 - 07:32 am:

I posted these for your private use. I will be posting the ramaji myself later.
