If you beat the stadium, then rested at the hotel, then left the hotel, you should know what you're doing.

Alternatively, here's an idea.

Go back to your grandmother's house and see if there are any cutscenes there.
This has been covered before, by the way.
If you're still stuck, it means you almost certainly missed the cutscene somehow. Try and explore San-cott Beach and see what happens if you approach the door of the factory there.

On a different note, I have six junk manamon now (including my starter, which I'm not going to use) so I'm all ready to take my babysat mons back. This walkthrough has set me up with something like 19000 gold, and I haven't even touched Sqien Path yet.

The bell tower is actually part of hazaldale city, but you have to go through one of the houses to get to it.
The person in the house says something about his privacy being violated because people have to go through his house to get to the bell tower.
and, also, before the question comes up, you have to go through the tower twice, but the games doesn't really tell you of this.
Go through is once, and when all the NPCs start talking about going home and you've gone up as high as you can go, leave, sleep at a hotel, then come back.
Later!

Um, really? I have never gone through that tower twice. Didn't even know you should bother.

Where is my game data stored so I can back that up? Also, if you start a new game, does it overwrite the data from your previous game or start you off in a new load slot? And, on a completely unrelated note, as has been said before, it would be nice to be able to have an option appear in the menus to listen to the music or other things used in the game after you've completed it. It'd be neat to have some other new content unlocked, like shops that sell things that none of the other shops do, or games that give more credits per win, or hell, having that gate at the end actually lead to another zone or entire world. I know I'm not the only one who thinks this game could be expanded.

Hey everyone.

Nice to see this topic is still quite busy.

If anyone is interested, I've started an audio playthrough/walkthrough of Manamon. It won't be nearly as detailed as the one from @Jayde probably will be, but it might help some folks who just want to get through the game.

The Dropbox link to this playthrough can be found at: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bu3wenstx0mh … 1ZFxa?dl=0

I've just started it, and am up to just entering Hazeldale woods. I'm breaking up the routes, cities, and gyms in to separate files so folks don't have to fast forward to much just to get to a part they may be interested in.

Hope people enjoy it, and feel free to reach out on Twitter, or PM me if you have any questions, concerns, or comments. Also, I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here by doing this. I figure, everyone might have their own way of doing things, and that's what makes it fun.

Thanks, and happy Manamon taming.

Matt

I also tried going up the Bell Tower again, absolutely nothing new is in there, other than a hidden Super Encounter Down in a corner on like floor 2, which wasn't actually new, just a hidden item I missed.
I'm now climbing Ascendent's Path, and will be taking on the master stadium soon. I mostly just want to see the alternate ending scene before I play through a third time. I see no reason to complete the Manapedia a second time, if I want to reference something in a completed file, I still have my other one.

Endgame spoilers:

So, I'm not sure if my team this time was just better (I think I was slightly higher level when I first reached the master stadium for what it's worth), or if i'm just more familiar with all the mons, probably both, but that was easy. I completely thrashed the master stadium on my first try, and only lost 2 mons throughout the whole fight. Fauntazaur, as you might expect, trampled the fire tamer, Leonatar with a Gravity Magnet shook up the air one, water needed a bit more thought but everything ultimately went down, mostly to Junanchel, Sound went down to Fiendour and Junanchel, and the master fight was a bit more varied, but Fiendour, Leonatar (500+ damage Earthquake on Dragamier), Frenrir, and Junanchel all helped out. For my efforts, I got to witness a much more depressing ending scene, although I kind of like it for it being more personal and emotional. Still, ouch. The story elements that led up to it are sad.

Guess I'll play through again at some point soon, starting with Flammia this time. No idea who else I'm going to use at this point.

Banyardan gets Earthquake at 56. So it's gonna be awhile I'm afraid.

I try to always take Daedalus Dust in to areas like that. And Upper Starwalk Mountain actually has a person right near the entrance who will heal your manamon.

Loxias, very nice job. I actually like Dragomier's previous form's cry better than his final form. The final form sorta sounds like he's choking. Ditto Tigrath, I don't know why but I really dislike that cry. Haha.

I'm just levelling up my so-called dream team, they're all around level 6-7 right now, so they're not much use to anyone. No notable moves beyond the ones I've mentioned thus far like Oblivion Slash on Dussocket). Funnily enough, Domestress starts out with its only move being Rookie Kick.

Not specifically, not right yet. It's going to be a goodish while before my text guide gets that far, too.

Speaking of text guide, here you guys go:

See if that lets you download the file. I'll get better access later.

This question has been asked and answered elsewhere in this long thread. Please use the search feature. It might take a couple of minutes, but I promise you the answer is here.

yeah, I used search, but I didn't see any of the names of the cities for the trades. I still need to trade for the autosun first.

I have zero problem with this sort of thing. I'm going to make mistakes and miss stuff, so thanks for pointing it out. I don't have thin skin, so critique away. I'm not exactly looking for a sentence-by-sentence analysis of the thing, its grammar may not be a hundred percent perfect throughout, but it should be more than good enough. A lot like a decent GameFAQs guide, basically.

Still levelling my so-called dream team. It's slow, slow work. They're all around level 14-15 now. Tarba got Tidal Wave to go along with Earthquake (which it had at level 1, funnily enough). Elvond got Tri-beam, and god how I hate that move but it's very powerful that early in the game, especially on Elvond's special attack. Lamgurk is worrying me because so far it's only learned Gravel Guard, which is...kind of a useless move on an earth-type manamon. Dussocket got Charge and then Charge Tackle. No real complaints there, even if Charge Tackle sucks. It's early yet. Hydrake got Power Leaf at level 12 I think.
