. This fails and he dies. However, now there are two universes, the second of which is based off of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe.
. This fails, and now he shares a body with a guy named Walter. (Worship is currently in control, however, but he's better now. Ish.)
. This fails, but instead of dying, they proceed to lurk in shadows.
. This fails, and he is sealed away.
up again. Meanwhile, so does a robot named Coda, the trio of Badniks from before, and several other villains, making it a callback to (mostly) all above events, which is where we left off.
So... What do you'll happen in the latest episode?
I don't know. Is Slide REALLY going to escape from the Mortus Spacial? I'd watch out for a curveball or catch, if you ask me.
...What the heck wuzzat?
...
...Come on, Mr. Mario! Surely, you don't actually believe what Peach told you! Toadbert did say she was acting odd, after all...
Odd? You think she was simply acting odd? I'll admit I don't actually know the princess, but what we've just heard goes WAY beyond odd! It's like she's a whole different person!
That's-a because she IS.



...That-a Peach was a fake... And-a I'd assume it's easy to not only figure out-a who created the fake... But also what could've happened to the-a REAL Princess.
...Wow. That's... very deductive of you.
Heheh, well. The-a person I've been training under has-a had a long history of-a unmasking villains**, so I've-a picked up on a few things, like when someone is-a playing pretend...
...Isn't that-a right, brother?
...Ha... Hahaha...
Ok, ok, you've-a got me! I-a ALSO knew that she wasn't the-a real Peach.
Huh? So, wait... You were just FAKING being upset?
I-a wanted to ensure that the-a fake Princess couldn't realize that I-a was onto her.
...Besides, why would I buy any of-a that "cycle" stuff? I'd-a have to be some pretentious idiot, or... well, I-a guess just an idiot.


...
...
That was...weird.
...in any case, I suppose the ocean's echoes will give me a hint of where I am soon enough.
And once I find out where they are...
...I'm gonna be there for my bros!
...I'll be there for my brothers.
(...the only reason they came back was so they could join me.)
(I split up from Dangan and Express†, I turned my relationship with Kikuri long-distance‡...and instead of them, I was being given my actual brothers on my side.)
Hey, dad, what happened to Boom Boom, Pom Pom, and the Koopalings?
Yeah. I've kinda been meaning to ask myself.
They've been relieved for the time being. I've decided it'd be better giving them actual breathing room. EXCEPT for Ludwig and Iggy... they're helping me with something... VERY special...
Gee, boss, what could be that important?
Shove your curiosity down a Warp Pipe! I'm not telling you classified information!
Sorry, champ, but that goes for you too.
What!? No fair! You let those two nerds in but can't even tell me!? Why do you even need them, can't Kamek just do his thing!?
I hate to inform you, but... the engineering they're working with is FAR from something I could conjure with a simple spell.
Also, you'd probably end up blabbing it to someone anyway.
Besides, I wouldn't fret, my lord. Judging by our recent success.. There is slim possibility it'll EVER be something which is worth revealing.
...Sakaros?
...
...Lulu, I told you to stop practicing fire magic on flammable trees.
† Wasn't that this time. You might wanna take a look at this, actually.
This...definitely isn't normal. Did you just see it here, or...?
Just kinda dropped from the sky. Which is weird, because...
...because that is a lot weirder.
(...I wasn't told what to do, and I don't see anything to-)
Hah! Another one of those "Evolve Fighters" trying to butter me up, huh?!
...
Little tip to take with you to your shallow grave: Don't waste your time like that!
Well thank you for freeing us.
Also...Epic?
If by us you mean *achoo* UKR...
...
We've been branded as traitors for assisting in the destruction of the Grey Matter. It turns out that they used their teleportation technology for the UKR to truly become universal...
And while we all knew that part, they seemed adamant on not knowing the Grey Matter were using us as walking juice pops. Regardless...
The point is we're looking for the creator of those Chordroids. Have you heard anything about them?
Ah Princess. I take it that order includes me as well?
Hello?
Flame?
Blaze.
Blaze. Sorry about that... I was sureSure We been working Rightthe others say hiUh huh Let the others know Sukapon's show Yup. Also, could you let them know you're all free to Sure
Oh! Could you help bring a robot capsule to the Mekka Airport? Some soldiers are coming to pick it up so it can be moved to our new lab.
...Sure.
Thank yo-
You're aware I know you're there, right?
*pop* How'd you see me?
Didn't need to see you to hear you.
You know...*chew* you really shouldn't take Dr. Emon's mistakes to heart.
...
He, *chew* he means well. Sure he's terrible with names, but that's what ya get when you're an old man.
Dr. Walnut is two years younger than him and yet he remembers us. All of us.
Eh, give him two years.
Gel.
Yeah? *blow*
Hey!
Blaze: Bitter Infernal Counterpart
Gel: Laid-Back Stealth Artist
Martin: Former UKR Diplomat Commando
Emon: Active Talented Doctor
...I mean, I'd say you yamawaro are the exceptions to the rule*, so I'm not gonna complain, but what exactly do you want a deal for?
...ahhah. Uh...
...well, y'see, these Ability Cards are really sweepin' the nation. Real good business invesement.
Trick is, people are startin' to buy 'em in bulk and then sell 'em off at like ten times the price.
You brought those "Battle Chip" thingies o' yours, right?
...sure thing. Let's see, I got a MetGuard G, a Dash Attack G, a modified Chip I call "Guts" that has the properties of the GutsMan chip but doesn't summon the Navi image-
See, that last one, whatever it meant? That's what I'm talkin' about!
Not just anyone can make an Ability Card. There's some weird stuff about what's inside, but point being, if you can work with these "Battle Chips" like that custom "Guts" chip, maybe we can work together to figure out some more tech to work out the supply to help the business get back on its feet while we work with the kappa to weed out the hair-rippers. Maybe even make cards that weren't for sale before!
Hold on. You I'm fine with, but do you really think I'm gonna work with a pong-
'Ey. You can't just walk around saying the P-word like that.
!?
What? What's going on?
...A call, sire. For you.
...Answer.
As you wish.
You mean you think you're done with your training?
For now, anyway! His highness is getting ready to expand on his empire. If that's the case, I can't just get left behind in the dust. I'm sure Pom Pom feels the same way.
'Sides, I've gotten plenty stronger... I bet I'll be able to take any new runts on no problem!
You think you'll end up jinxing that?
What? Nah. That's a superstition, as well as a not very logical conclusion. I've worked hard on my own free will. I have the right to be confident in myself.
If you find it so concerning, you are welcome to do the same.
But... but......
