Almost Mecha-Lion

The Almost Mecha-Lion is a boss in Mother 3, appearing in Chapter 7. During Lucas's search for Salsa and his girlfriend inside the Chimera Laboratory, they are ambushed by the Almost Mecha-Lion in the skeletons room, a Chimera with only a part of his face is flesh. However, they do not have to win the battle to progress.
Regardless of whether the battle is won or lost, the lion tries to attack Lucas and his party again. However, it gets knocked out by a Clayman.
Later in Chapter 8, Lucas and his party can encounter fully Mecha-Lions as regular enemies.

Aloysius Minch

Aloysius Minch (アンブラミ•ミンチ Anburami Minch) is the spouse of Lardna Minch and the father of both Porky Minch and Picky Minch.
==History==
Aloysius Minch is first seen in Onett near the start of EarthBound after returning Porky and Picky home, where he scolds them for being out so late (In Mother 2, he beats them). He later wants Ness to leave as he holds a grudge against Ness and his family, since Ness's father borrowed hundreds of thousands of dollars from him, but Mr. Minch openly admits it could have been a lot less, which implies he is exaggerating the amount (in Mother 2 he says the loan was an unrealistically high amount, "a hundred million trillion dollars", further implying he's exaggerating).
He can later be seen in Fourside while Porky is helping Monotoli. He says Ness hasn't changed much but says that Porky made him live the life of a rich man.
After the game is over, Aloysius can be found in the cafe (bar) in Fourside where he says Porky should treasure his father more (In Mother 2 he also calls Porky an idiot). He also tells Ness to keep it a secret from his wife Lardna that he's boozing off there.
Ancient Dragonfly

Anti-piracy in the Mother series

The Mother series has a history of including anti-piracy measures to discourage counterfeiting of the games.
==In EarthBound Beginnings==
The unreleased American prototype of Mother, "Earth Bound", had its ROM dumped by Neo Demiforce, a fan translation group. In order to make the ROM image compatible with NES emulator Nesticle, the group had to alter a single byte in the ROM; doing so, however, caused a checksum to fail and activated an anti-piracy screen. Further hacks were then added to the ROM before its distribution became widespread, which included a means of circumventing this screen.EarthBound Central - EarthBound Zero Prototype Info
==In EarthBound==
EarthBound has many different ways to prevent piracy. The first and simplest one will check to see if the game is being played on a PAL console. If it is, the game will display a screen saying "This game is not designed for your Super Famicom or Super NES." After that, the game will check to see if the part of the cartridge that holds save files has less than 8KB of SRAM, since bootleg copies usually have more. If it does, the game will display an anti-piracy screen and then freeze. If the game is hacked to pass this screen, the game will display many more random enemies in an attempt to make the game less enjoyable, sometimes even adding enemies which normally don't appear in an area. Additionally, entering certain areas, such as the Twoson-Threed tunnel, will freeze the game. If the player manages to make it through this much harder version of the game, during the final boss fight with Giygas, the game will freeze and force the player to reset. When the player does, they will find that their save files have been completely deleted.EarthBound Central - EarthBound's Copy Protection
==In Mother 3==
===In the Mother 3 fan translation===
The Mother 3 fan translation added anti-piracy measures involving its disclaimer screen. If it is altered graphically, it causes the main text routine to print out garbage letters, making changing the screen pointless as it renders the translation unreadable. If the screen is instead removed or bypassed, it causes the game to freeze and screech, rendering the game entirely unplayable. Legends of Localization: Mother 3 - Game Start

Apple Kid

The Apple Kid is a kid living with a mouse in Twoson. He is an inventor who is seen as a slob and lazy among the citizens of Twoson, and fosters a strong rivalry and disdain towards Orange Kid. However, as the game progresses, he becomes an important character, providing Ness and his party with inventions that allow them to defeat Giygas's army.
==Appearance==
Apple Kid is first encountered in his house in Twoson, which is below Orange Kid's house. When interacted with, he asks Ness for some food and $200; should Ness give those to Apple Kid, the mouse would give Ness a receiver phone, which Apple Kid would periodically call to inform Ness about an invention that he had completed. 
After Ness and his party arrived at Tenda Village, Apple Kid would call Ness, informing that he'll be unavailable for some time, as he would be working with Dr. Andonuts and the Mr. Saturns make the Phase Distorter. However, mid-call he was abducted by Porky, who stole the Phase Distorter and trapped him inside a tube full of strange liquid in Stonehenge Base until Ness rescued him. He then tells Ness where the book of overcoming shyness was located and starts working on a new Phase Distorter, which Ness and his friends later use to combat Giygas.
During the battle with Giygas, Apple Kid was among the first people to pray for the safety of Ness and his friends. When they returned, Apple Kid told Ness that the chances of Giygas defeating them was 99%, however their "courage" was able to produce the 1% chance that Ness and his party would emerge victorious. He then vows to study and understand what "courage" is.
==Inventions==
Throughout Ness's journey, Apple Kid would send him inventions that conveniently solves a problem Ness and his friends were encountering. Apple Kid first invented the Pencil Eraser, allowing Ness to erase the pencil statue in the Peaceful Rest Valley. Later, he would send Zombie Paper to Ness in Threed via the Mach Pizza deliveryman, allowing Ness and his party to capture the zombies guarding the entrance to Grapefruit Falls. After defeating the Mani-Mani Statue, Apple Kid would attempt to send Ness the Gourmet Yogurt Machine, which dispenses yogurt, however the delivery boy incompetently loses it in the Dusty Dunes Desert, causing Ness and Jeff to search for it. His final invention sent to Ness is the Eraser Eraser, which allows Ness to erase the eraser statue in Stonehenge Base.
Apple of Enlightenment

The Apple of Enlightenment (Japanese: Apple of Wisdom) is a machineEarthBound Central: "MOTHER 2 vs. EarthBound: Magicant" mentioned in EarthBound, used by Giygas to predict the future. 
It tells of a prophecy that a boy, Ness, will prevent Giygas's plans from taking place. The prophecy is first introduced by Buzz Buzz, who explains it to Ness and mentions that the it had been handed down by the Apple as a legend since ancient times.
Starman Deluxe indicates Giygas did not believe in the prophecy. This explains why Giygas did not immediately target Ness, Jeff or Poo. Paula was likely targeted due to her public use of PSI, not necessarily because of the prophecy. 
==Prophecy==
"The point" refers to the 8 Sanctuary Locations and "the light" likely refers to the 8 Melodies.
The nightmare rock may refer to Ness's Nightmare or the Mani-Mani Statue. Most likely it refers to the former, as once Ness's Nightmare is defeated in battle, Ness is told to go to Saturn Valley where he travels back in time to defeat Giygas.
Due to Buzz Buzz's untimely death, the full, specific contents of the prophecy are never revealed. The prophecy also mentions Paula, Jeff, and Poo, but only in ambiguous terms. Pokey mentions that the Apple's prophecy didn't predict his involvement.

Arcade 1-Up

Arcade 1-Up is a location in Mother 3, found in the south-central part of New Pork City. After Boney chases a stinkbug into New Pork City's sewer system through a grate in the theater, a man inside the arcade claims he hears a dog, and asks Lucas's party to go find it, because he is terrified of dogs. He then moves the unplayable crane game in the center of the room to reveal an entrance to the sewer system.
The game machines in the top row of the room are playable at 10 DP per-play. If the player chooses to do this, Lucas plays the game for around ten seconds before facing the screen, red-faced.
Argilla Pass

Argilla Pass is a location in Mother 3 accessable during Chapter 7. Chupichupyoi Temple and Ionia's house are located here.
==Layout==
Argilla Pass is first accessed in Chapter 7 by taking the left path after exiting Sunshine Forest from the north. The path leads to an empty field before continuing north, which leads to a mountain pass with several branching paths and caves. Taking the left path on the first fork in the road leads to a cave containing a hot spring. The right path is a winding path which leads to the caves.
The caves start out with an empty room with two paths to take. Going left leads to a bridge across an underground stream, then turns downwards before leading back outside. Back outside is a small cliff with another cave entrance to go back inside. Continuing this way leads to a dead end where the Negative Man can be fought as an optional boss.
Back at the initial entrance, taking the path to the right goes to another split. North will lead to a dead end, going south is a winding path that turns right, then after a small dip is the exit from the cave.
From hear on there are only two places to go. Heading right is where Ionia's house is located, and where Lucas delivers the Jar of Yummy Pickles. North is where the Chupichupyoi Temple is located, as well as one of the Needles.
==History==
===Chapter 7===
After received Mixolydia's task to give the Jar of Yummy Pickles to Ionia, Lucas and his friends travel through Argilla Pass to give it to Ionia. On the way to meet Ionia and deliver it, Lucas drops it, temporarily leaving Boney as the party leader to find it. There are other items located here as well, but if Boney finds the pickles first, the other items become unavailable.
At Ionia's house, Lucas gives them the pickles, who in turn hands the Waters of Time to remove the vines blocking the temple in order to pull the sixth Needle. On the way there, a Mr. Saturn shows up to return the newly-polished Courage Badge, now revealed to be a Franklin Badge. At the Chupichupyoi Temple, the group confront the Masked Man and the Pigmasks who are trying to enter the temple. However, the Masked Man is unable to remove vines that are frozen in time. Upon spotting Lucas, he attacks them with lightning, but Lucas's Franklin Badge reflects it back to start a battle. After being defeated, the Masked Man and the Pigmasks retreat, allowing Lucas to use the Waters of Time to clear out the vines. Inside, the next Needle is able to be pulled by Lucas, which then prompts Ionia to arrive and teach Kumatora PK Starstorm before disappearing. 
Finally, the team leaves the temple before being transported to New Pork City.

Auto

Auto (Japanese: Auto) is a battle command in EarthBound Beginnings and EarthBound. It causes the player's battle commands to be controlled by an AI. The AI puts high priority to healing, and does not use offensive PSI or items. The AI's choices, similarly to the player's, are determined before any actions take place, meaning for example that a character will not revive a character on the same turn that they are knocked unconscious. This command was removed in Mother 3, possibly because of the Sound Battle system. It can be disabled by pressing the B button.
