Osohe Dance

The Osohe dance (also popularly known as the Wess dance by fans) is a special dance that must be performed to open certian doors in Mother 3. There are three doors that can only be opened by doing this dance, the first two are in the second floor and basement of Osohe Castle respectively, and the last one is in Murasaki Forest blocking the way to Doria's house. The only ones who perform the dance in game are Wess and Salsa, however Wess says that Duster and Kumatora also know the dance despite never being seen performing it.
==Wess==
The first to use the dance in the game is Wess in the room where Duster found the Noble Spitoon in Chapter 2. Wess requests Duster not to look at the dance as it is embarrassing, however Duster watches anyway. After Wess finishes dancing he tells that he taught Duster how to do the dance, and to use it in times when he feels stuck.
Before Wess dances, the song Open Sesame Oil! plays and then switches to Open Sesame Tofu! as Wess is doing the dance.
Wess performing the dance in particular has became one of the most popular scenes in Mother 3 for the fanbase due to the utter hilarity of the scene. The scene has spawned memes including ones of other characters doing the same dance.
==Salsa==
In Chapter 3 Salsa also performs the dance to open the door in the basement of Osohe Castle. Unlike the others, Salsa doesn't initally know the dance and must read the paintings on the wall to learn the dance.
Later in Chapter 7 he does the dance again in Murasaki Forest to open the door leading to Doria's house and one of the Needles.
Both dances require the player to input the player to input the "Dance" command on the directional pad, pressing the wrong direction causes Salsa to do the dance incorrectly, and in Chapter 3, Fassad will shock him for doing it wrong. The song Laugh! Be Happy! plays during the dance while What happened?! plays if done incorrectly.

PK Beam

PK Beam is a PSI attack, only appearing in EarthBound Beginnings. It has a variety of effects between ranks, such as doing damage to a single enemy, or even instantly knocking out an enemy altogether. Only Ana can learn PK Beam.
PK Beam γ is reflected by the Franklin Badge.
PK Beam does less damage against metallic enemies.
==Overview==
PK Beam does not belong to a specific element but instead is a psychic beam that is fired at the target. It is the most powerful single-target PSI attack in the game, with PK Beam γ being a one-hit KO attack that instantly KOs a target reguardless of the amount of HP they have. The first three tiers of PK Beam are a single-target attack, and Ω attacks all opponents on screen. PK Beam Ω is the strongest non OHKO attack in the game dealing 100-210 damage.
Because PK Beam does not belong to an element, there is no pendant that can protect the player from it, not even the Sea Pendant. However the Franklin Badge will reflect PK Beam γ back at the enemy, additionally mechanical enemies are resistant to PK Beam and are also immune to γ altogether.
Lloyd's Laser Beam and Plasma Beam are funcionally the equivalent to PK Beam α and β respectively.

==In later games==
PK Beam is the only offensive PSI attack that does not return in EarthBound and Mother 3, however it is likely to have been replaced with Ness and Lucas's respective favorite things PSI Rockin and PK Love, as they are also PSI based offensive PSI attacks that do not belong to an element, similar to PK Beam. The only difference is that all tiers are multi-target whereas only PK Beam Ω targets all opponents. Additionally PK Beam γ's one-hit KO property is present in PK Flash.
==In the Super Smash Bros. series==
The Starman is able to use PK Beam in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. When summoned it attacks opponents with either PK Beam γ or Ω, in these games γ is single-target while Ω sends a barrage of beams. Additionally the Starman enemy in the mode exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS also uses PK Beam. In this mode PK Beam can be reflected back at the Starman for a one-hit KO referencing PK Beam γ being a one-hit KO, as well as Starmen being vulnerable to it.
PK Ground

PK Ground is a PSI attack, introduced in Mother 3. PK Ground is a very powerful attack which targets all opponents, dealing various amounts of damage based on the maximum HP of the target. It is only learned by Kumatora.
==Overview==
PK Ground creates a massive earthquake which damages all of the enemies five times in a row in one turn. The amount of damage depends on the maximum HP of the enemy, approximately 1.56%~12.5% of an enemy's max HP is dealt with each hit. Against a single enemy, it is very powerful attack which can reduce their health by a large amount, allowing it to be especially helpful against boss fights (excluding the King Statue, which is immune to it). When fighting multiple enemies, it instead divides the damage between all enemies. PK Ground additionally has a random chance to cause an enemy to fall over, leaving them unable to do anything for a short amount of turns.
Depending on the maximum HP of the target, when fighting a single enemy PK Ground is the most powerful PSI attack in the series. Bosses with high amounts of HP can take up to 400 HP of damage per hit, making it possible to deal at least 1,000 damage per turn, surpassing PK Freeze Ω and PK Starstorm Ω in EarthBound which deals up to 900 damage.

PK Love

PK Love is Lucas's signature PSI attack, only appearing in Mother 3. It does a large amount of damage to all enemies, with the power varying between ranks.
PK Love's name is determined by what is chosen as the "favorite thing" at the beginning of the game. Interestingly, "Love" is among the available defaults for Ness's favorite thing in EarthBound as part of a set of The Beatles-based defaults, likely referencing All You Need Is Love.EarthBound Central: "MOTHER 2 vs. EarthBound: New Game"
==Overview==
PK Love is Lucas's signature PSI attack which when used targets the enemy with psychedelic waves, which then spread out in hexagons (starting with β) as it attacks. Lucas first learns the move when Ionia awakens his PSI powers by dunking his head under the hot spring in the Railway, prompting him to learn PK Love α along with other PSI moves. When Lucas first learns the move, it shocks Ionia as they say not even the Magypsies can learn it. PK Love is only learned through special events instead of during level-up through Fever, much like PK Flash and PK Starstorm, with α being learned when Ionia initally teaches Lucas the move, and the rest being learned each time Lucas successfully pulls the Needles. In Chapter 1 Aeolia reveals they taught Claus PK Love when he went missing.
While its primary usage is as an attack, it also has a very special secondary ability; the power to pull the Seven Needles and awaken the Dark Dragon. The person who can use PK Love is destined to pull the Seven Needles when the time is right, and is supposed to pass their heart onto the Dark Dragon and recreate the world. The Masked Man also has the ability to use PK Love.
PK Love Ω is one of the strongest PSI attacks in the series, rivaled by PSI Rockin, PK Freeze and PK Starstorm's Ω forms, and to an extent, PK Ground. As an attack, PK Love is the successor to Ness's PSI Rockin, as they are both named after the player's favorite thing and only few are able to learn the move (In this case Lucas and Claus). Both PSI attacks are sometimes considered the successor to PK Beam as well, as they are all non-elemental PSI attacks (and one can name their favorite thing "Beam" at the beginning), with the only difference being, as with Rockin, PK Love attacks all enemies instead of one for each of its levels.
==In Mother 3==

Lucas learns PK Love through a variety of special events, learning PK Love α when he first realizes his psychic abilities in Chapter 4 with Ionia's assistance. He later learns the other three variations after pulling Doria, Phrygia and Ionia's needles in Chapter 7, respectively.

PSI

PSI refers to the psychic abilities that various characters in the EarthBound series possess. Such powers include telepathy, teleportation, psychic shields and psychokinetic (often shortened to PK) attacks.
== Origin and discovery ==
PSI was originally the provenance of Giygas's race. When George and Maria were abducted by these aliens in the early 1900s, George studied the powers and eventually passed down his research notes to Ninten, his great-grandson. Many humans with no known connection to the aliens or to George's family line are also shown to be able to use PSI, such as Ana, Ness, Paula, Poo, Lucas, Claus, Kumatora, and the Garrickson baby.
== Types of PSI ==
PSI moves become stronger as the user levels up, with the level of strength denoted by the Greek letters α (alpha), β (beta), γ (gamma), π (pi), Σ (sigma), and Ω (omega), in ascending order of potency. The π power level only appears in EarthBound Beginnings, while the Σ power level only appears in Earthbound. PSI can be compartmentalized into four different categories: 
*Assist PSI are PSI moves that alter parameters of allies or foes (Offense up and Defense down), inflict status effects (Paralysis and Strangeness), or raise shields. 
*Offense PSI are PSI moves that inflict damage. All PSI moves in this category bear the prefix "PK", except in EarthBound, where "PSI" is used instead. Offensive PSI includes PSI Rockin, PK Flash, PK Fire, PK Freeze, PK Thunder, and PK Starstorm.
*Recover PSI are PSI moves that replenish HP or PP, or remove status effects.
*Other PSI are PSI moves designed to be used outside of battle on the field map, such as Teleport. No PSI of this category exist in Mother 3.
==Qualities of PSI==
PSI costs PP to use, which can be recovered by eating certain foods or resting at a hotel. When a character can't concentrate or is forgetful, they can't use PSI. In Mother 3, when a character is learning a new PSI technique, they will become feverish, slowing them to a walk.
===Memo ===
"PSI is a mysterious and useful power that can replenish your energy or even assist in your transportation needs. Using PSI will deplete your PP."

PSI Rockin

PSI Rockin (Japanese: PKキアイ PK Kiai, translates to PK Fighting Spirit) is Ness's signature offensive PSI attack, only appearing in EarthBound. It does a large amount of damage to all enemies, with the power varying between ranks. Ness's Nightmare and Giygas (when inside the Devil's Machine) also know this attack.
The attack's name is determined by what is chosen as the player's "favorite thing" at the beginning of the game.
==Overview==
When Ness uses PSI Rockin, psychedelic lights and sounds are displayed dealing high damage to all enemies, while also having the possibility of decreasing one of the targets' PSI Shield's strength by 1. PSI Rockin Ω is one of the most powerful PSI attacks in the game, dealing up to 960 damage to a target, only rivaled by PK Starstorm Ω and PK Freeze Ω. Because PSI Rockin is not part of any element, no Pendant can protect against it.
PSI Rockin can be seen as the successor to PK Beam from EarthBound Beginnings as they are both non-elemental PSI attacks, with the only exceptions being it is multi-targeting instead of single target (sans PK Beam Ω) and it is Ness's exclusive move.

==Trivia==
*In the Wii U Virtual Console release of EarthBound PSI Rockin γ's animation was altered due to the rapid flashing creating a risk of causing seizureshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfeAqJZP2MA.
*PSI Rockin is one of the only offensive PSI attacks that can miss. Another is PK Flash.
*Based on damage output and PP cost, PSI Rockin β is the most PP cost efficient with ~6.4 minimum damage per 1 PP, and ~19.3 maximum damage per 1 PP. By contrast, PSI Rockin Ω is the least PP cost efficient with ~3.3 minimum damage per 1 PP and ~9.8 maximum damage per 1 PP.
**PSI Rockin α and γ are tied for the middle with 4 minimum damage per 1 PP, and 12 maximum damage per 1 PP.

Paula's family

Paula's family consists of Paula's father and mother. They run the Polestar Preschool in Twoson, which their daughter helps out with. They apparently knew about Ness having to journey with Paula to save the world. The family lives within the aforementioned preschool.
==In EarthBound==
===Isabella===
Paula's mother's official name is Isabella Jones according to development files. During Paula's kidnapping, she believes Paula is protected by a guardian angel (God in Japan) and will be fine. After Paula is rescued, she provides her "hand-made Band Aid" which she dubs the Hand-Aid to the party before they set off together on their adventure.
===Paul===
Paul Jones is Paula's father. When he first meets Ness, he remarks that Paula had seen him in her dream. He runs upstairs to call her down, but realizes she is missing. He gradually becomes more and more worried about her, as if Ness rests in the Twoson hotel during this time Paul can be seen running anxiously calling Paula home to have some pie. When spoken to, he suspects that Everdred is responsible for Paula's disappearance.
Later when Paula is rescued and brought home, he thanks Ness for saving her and is sorry he suspected Everdred was the kidnapper. He is shown to be sad to see Paula leaving, but Paula reassures that she will be fine with Ness. From that point on Ness can rest in their house for free as long as Paula is in the party.

Peaceful Rest Valley

Peaceful Rest Valley is a location in EarthBound connecting Twoson to Happy Happy Village. It is a large valley which winds through hills and trees, and past rivers, lakes and waterfalls. It is widely seen as a difficult area to navigate due to the confusing maze-like layout, and for having rather strong enemies for early game which can inflict status ailments or explode upon defeat.
Its name in the Japanese version is "Grateful Dead Valley," which was altered in localization to avoid mentions of the word dead and similar words, and legal issues with the band after which it was named.
==Geography==
Peaceful Rest Valley spans between Happy Happy Village in the east, and Twoson in the west. The path mostly runs along the riverbank, three bridges are used to traverse across to the other sides of the rivers. Normally there is a bridge that skips a good portion of the valley, however during the player's first visit it is broken and thus trekking the long way is required. In the midde section the path loops around the northern side of the hill before crossing over the hills to the opposite side. The path eventually reaches an open area where it passes the bridge that would normally be used to skip the northern portions of the valley.
The bridge to the east of there crosses to the side of the river where Happy Happy Village is located. From there it continues north towards a slope leading up the hill, while on the hill the cabin where Paula is being held is visible on the right side. After continuing south it will reach a cave leading to Happy Happy Village.
==History==
The first time the Ness passes trough here, a bridge near the entrance will be broken, forcing the player to take an alternate path where a strange, pencil-shaped object will be blocking the road. This forces him to backtrack to Twoson, where, upon arriving, Apple Kid will invent the Pencil Eraser to remove the obstacle and allow entry to Happy Happy Village.
Within the valley there is a cabin where Paula is being kept. She gives Ness the Franklin Badge knowing it will help him stop Mr. Carpainter. Outside, Ness is ambushed by Porky who tries to stop him using a Spiteful Crow and two Insane Cultists, however Ness is able to easily defeat them. After being given the key from Mr. Carpainter, Ness successfully rescues Paula and the two travel back to Twoson together. The bridge will be fixed, making a more straightforward path between Happy Happy Village and Twoson.

Peculiar Cheese

The Peculiar Cheese is an HP restoring recovery item found in Mother 3. It is an unusual item in that the amount of HP it restores depends on the party member who eats it.
==Usage==
When eaten by a party member, it restores either 60 (if cheese is liked) or 20 HP (if cheese is disliked) based on the character's preference:
*Flint and Duster always like cheese.
*Kumatora, Boney, and Salsa always dislike cheese.
*Lucas's preference on cheese depends upon the name he is given at the beginning of the game:
**If his name has an odd number of letters (such as the default name, "Lucas"), he will like cheese.
**If his name has an even number of letters, he will dislike cheese.https://forum.starmen.net/forum/Games/Mother3/MOTHER-3-Help-Desk-and-Quick-Questions/page/31#post2194711
