Legend of the River King GBC FAQ/WALKTHROUGH By: JunoGem (Aaron Knepper) Welcome to my 2nd FAQ/WALKTHROUGH. This one is one Legend of the River King GBC. It too is a great game created by Natsume. I'm not the type of person to play fishing games, but when it comes to Natsume, I just can't resist playing their games. This FAQ/WALKTHROUGH is just like my Harvest Moon GBC FAQ/WALKTHROUGH, but it's on a different game. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Version History- New version- Version 1.4 (8/15/00) Not much of a update but I have some bad news, I'll be moving this week and I won't reply to any mail for a week, but other than that it's all A OK. JunoGem Past versions- Version 1.0 (7-1-00) First version. I didn't think I'd make another FAQ/WALKTHROUGH, but I guess I was wrong. I know I said I would be done with this by June 30th but I've been extremely busy. Version 1.1 (7-12-00) A normal update. Just changing some stuff. Not tot many people E-mail me, tell your friends about this FAQ/WALKTHROUGH. Version 1.2 (7/23/00) Normal update. I'm just changing some mistakes and other stuff. Version 1.3 (8/3/00) Not much of an update, still trying to get those fish names. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Table of Contents: 1. Game Information 2.

FAQ/WALKTHROUGH Information ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Game Information- Platform: Nintendo Game Boy, Nintendo Game Boy Pocket, and Nintendo Game Boy Color. Publisher: Natsume (Serious Fun) Developer: Natsume (Serious Fun) Genre: RPG (Role Playing Game) Origin: Japan Number of Players: One Aproved for use by: Nintendo of America (NOA) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. Controls- Control Pad: It controls your movements, cycles through lists, directs casting and reeling, and if you run into someone, you talk to them. Select: Toggles between walking and fishing. Start: Starts the game. It also pauses it. "A": Use it to reel in line, attack animals, or confirm something on the menu. "B": It controls casting and cancels selections on the menu.

You're are sleeping when you here your mother yells "(place name here), come here." She tells you that your sister has a rare sickness that can only be cured but the Guardian Fish, a fish of magical powers. So, you go out it to the wilderness with a stick with some line on it. So, go save your sister. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4. Goal- Your goal is to save your sister. You will have to go through four different levels, each with a mission in each. After you accomplish each mission you have to catch a Guardian Fish to save your sister. Like it or not, you have to do it (Geez, I sound like my parents). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Character List- There are tons of characters in this game. If someone calls you brother or something like that, you're not related to him or her. I don't know why, but everybody is too friendly in this game. You: This is the main character. He's you. You get to name him and then you have to save your sister. Teruyo: She's on the verge of dying. She is sick in her bed. Without her, you could just stay home and watch T.V. Mother: She's the only one who can make the cure, but she needs the Guardian Fish. Dam Master: He operates the dam in the Stream. Help his daughter to go to Lake 2. Raft Master: His name says it all. He'll make a raft for you if you bring his lunch to him. Pupil: A student of the old Raft Master who will fix your raft after it breaks. Artist: Trade your Lucky Charm for his Tea Cup. Lumberjack: Catch a Willow Gudgeon and a Slender Gudgeon for him and he'll give you his Axe to reach the secret pond in the Stream. Map Maker: He makes map. He'll tell you where the secret cave is if you catch him some Smelt Miner: Catch him some Three-Spined Stickleback and he'll give you his Pick. Other characters: As you move on you will meet new and different people. Most are friendly, so talk to them. Some people buy fish off of you, some just talk, and some you need to help. Most of these other characters have names such as Uncle, Aunt, and so on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6. Fish List- Here's a list of all 48 fish, yes 48. There are 8 more fish in the GBC version. I will also add what bait, lures, flies, and size hook to use to catch them with. All sizes are in centimeters. Hooks are abbreviated for S=Small, M=Medium, and L=Large. Also, B=Baits, L=Lures, and F=Flies. For flies, W=Wet and D=Dry. I hope this isn't too confusing for you. Sorry this appears messy, some monitors make this appear different than a chart. It will look normal if you have a huge screen, use your televison for internet, or if you print this out.

B=? L=? F=? ???? ??-?? ? B=? L=? F=? ???? ??-?? ? B=? L=? F=? NOTE: The reason I don't have the other three fish listed is I beat the game, but my sisters idiot friend decided to see what happens when you turn on a Game Boy, then put in the game, then take it out. Who would think that would erase my file. Well, I never have to baby-sit J.R. ever again, I hope. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7.

How to Fish- Many of you may be reading this and thinking 'This game sounds fun, but how do you fish?' Well here's how. Bait/Fly fishing: This is the easiest type of fishing. Press "B" and hold it to cast. The longer you hold "B" the farther you cast. Then the current will start to carry the bobber. If you are fly fishing (or using a sinker, not a bobber) you can reel in your line slowly. If a fish goes after your bait it will circle the bobber/sinker/fly and you will hear three beeps. Then you will hear one long beep. During the long beep, press "A" or "B". You will then go into an under water view. The fish will swim through the water. When it stops hold "A" or "B". If it resists and you hear a loud screech, stop holding "A" or "B". Repeat until you catch the fish. Lure Fishing: This is the harder type of fishing. You cast your lure out and pull it in so it acts like a living creature. It a fish comes after it, stop moving the lure. It will circle it and you'll hear three beeps. Then you'll hear more beeps, not a long beep. Click "A" or "B" to go to the under water view. Hold "A" or "B" to pull the line. When the fish comes near the lure you may need to stop the lure. If/when the fish bights on reel it in like your bait/fly fishing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 15. Wild Animals (Fighting)- In Legend of the River King GBC there is fighting. Every once in a while you will run into a wild animal. Don't run because you usually just get hurt trying. In the screen you can choose RUN (to try to leave the battle), MEAL (to eat something to recover HP), or FIGHT (to fight the animal). If you choose FIGHT your fist will appear at random spots on the screen. Press "A" when your fist goes to the spot you want to hit. I will list the animals HP, their WP (Weak Point), and how much EXP (experience) you earn. NOTE: The more EXP you have the higher you maximum HP becomes. Spider HP: 12 WP: head EXP: 2 Bat HP: 22 WP: ear EXP: 3 Crow HP: 35 WK: bill EXP: 4 Snake HP: 40 WP: head EXP: 7 Poison Spider HP: 20 WP: head EXP: 3 Lynx HP: 28 WP: face EXP: 3 Vampire HP: 40 WP: ear EXP: 5 Monkey HP: 45 WP: face EXP: 6 Bee HP: 34 WP: face EXP: 5 Eagle HP: 45 WP: beak EXP: 7 Brown Bear HP: 52 WP: face EXP: 9 Brown Monkey HP: 56 WP: face EXP: 11 Demoncat HP: 35 WP: face EXP: 5 Wasp HP: 58 WP: face EXP: 8 Viper HP: 60 WP: head EXP: 9 Bear HP: 68 WP: face EXP: 12 NOTE: Damage is decided on how much HP you have at the current moment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 16. Walkthrough- Here it is, the Walkthrough part of my FAQ/WALKTHROUGH. I hope it is help to beginners and experts alike. (1) Torrent A. The Raft Master You will wake up to your mother's screaming. She will tell you what has happened and what you need to do. She will then give you a Charm. Then go outside and check out the surroundings. Then catch some fish on your own and sell them, so you have some extra money. Then go talk to everyone, just to see what they say. Don't give any Char to the Uncle who will trade tips for Char, the tips are all within this FAQ/WALKTHROUGH. Then go to the Raft Master and talk to him. He'll ask for some Rainbow Trout. Rainbow Trout will best respond to larva. Use a medium hook, large ones work too. Catch as many as you can. Then go back to the Raft Master and give him one of the Rainbow Trout. Then sell the other fish you caught. B. Cutthroat Trout for lunch When you go to get the Raft Master's lunch his niece will ask you to catch some Cutthroat Trout. Go as west as you can to catch them. Use a small or medium hook with a larva attached. Catch as many as you possibly can. Then go bake to the niece. Then take the lunch to the Raft Master. Then sell the fish. C. Torrent wrap-up Now you can fish deeper into the waters. Don't forget, rafting uses up HP really fast. Catch all the fish you can. Catch all the fish that are here so you don't have to come back later. I know this sounds really harsh, but you will have to do a lot of work before you leave. Catch at least one of each of the fish in the Torrent. Now fish like crazy. Store cash and buy a Pail (medium). Now save up and buy all of the rods. Now save up even more and buy all of the flies and the spinner lure. Now by all the oranges you can, then sleep at the end. Have at least 1,000 Gold before you leave. I'm sorry I'm so harsh, but it will really help you out in the future. (2) Lake One A. Broken Raft As you enter Lake 1 you will have no control over your Raft. It will then crash into a rock. The Raft will break, then Pupil (the student of then Raft Master) will offer to fix it for you, for free. Now take time to explore the map. B. Got a spot of tea? Talk to the Artist to trade your Charm for his Teacup. You can't use the Teacup, but it will help you later on. C. Terrorized Town It turns out that the town is being terrorized by a monster, a bear. Well, you have to be Mr. Nice and save the day. Stock up on Rice Balls and walk to the south on the bridge. You will eventually run into the bear. By now your EXP should be high enough to defeat the Bear in four to five hits on it's WP (head). D. New Raft After you beat the Bear go back to the Pupil and he will tell you the Raft has been destroyed. He did make you a new one though. Now fish until you catch one of every single fish in Lake 1. This will take a while, but make sure to catch at least one of every fish. E. Three-Spined Stickleback Go to the Restaurant in the south-east corner of the map and talk to the man there. He will give you his pick if you catch him a Three-Spined Stickleback. They are located in the reeds next to the village. I think Stonefly wet and Mayfly wet and dry are the best. Now take them to him and he'll give you the pick. F. Smelt If you don't know where the cave is talk to the Map Maker and he'll ask for some Smelt. Once you catch them for him he'll tell you where to go. Smelt like Stonefly wet the best. G. Lake One wrap-up Catch one of the each type of fish here. You should have all the Flies, Baits, Lures, Hooks, and Rods you can get so far. I also recommend having at least 900 Gold. Now stock up on Rice Balls and go to the Stream. (3) Stream A. Helllllpppppppp!!! As you exit the cave you will be in another town. The Stream is a fairly small place. You will soon notice that a man is drowning in the water. Once you save him he will give you the Casting Rod, Small for saving his a**. B. Get the Charcoal Go farther done the Stream until you get to the Restaurant and talk to the man there. He'll trade the Teacup for his Charcoal. C. Quick cash If your low on cash or you just want more of the green stuff catch some Ayu and take it to the man by the Restaurant and he'll give you 60 Gold an Ayu. Not bad is it? D. Open the dam... Even further down you'll meet a girl who wants a big Pale Chub. You'll know it's good enough for her if it breaks a record. Take it to her and she'll help you out. It turns out that she is the daughter of the Dam Master. When she takes you there she'll tell her father to open the dam for you. E. Stream wrap-up Stock up on food, chumming, bait, and catch all the fish but the Golden Carp and the Bitterling (you can't reach them yet). I recommend you have at least 900 Gold before you leave. Now go to Lake 2. (4) Lake Two A. New equipment As you enter Lake 2 You'll be in the best area for big fish (Eels). When you get to the town you can now (drum roll please) get the Pail (Large). You can also buy Lunches, so stock up on them. I also recommend buying more hooks if you need them. B. Getting to know the Guardian Fish In town there are two people who can give you helpful tips on the Guardian Fish. You don't have to do this, but if you know nothing about the Guardian Fish you should help the couple. C. I'll trade your fish for my Axe On the western side of the map you'll meet an old Lumberjack who will trade you his Axe for a Willow Gudgeon and a Slender Gudgeon. Willow Gudgeon and Slender Gudgeon best respond to Small hooks and grubs/worms or the Stonefly wet. D. Mr. Generous You now need to trade your Charcoal for the Wind Chime but the lady in the Restaurant wont yet. Why, you ask. The reason is you haven't helped out the lady's family. Go north to a man who wants Killifish, once you help him out, he'll give you the Lure Rod, Large for free. Then go to the Stream and help the guy by the Restaurant. Then, back in Lake 2, help the man near the cliff. Go back to the lady and she'll trade the Charcoal for her Wind Chime. E. Lake Two wrap-up By now you should have all the rods, lures, baits, flies, hooks, a Pail (Large), chumming, Axe, Wind Chime, all the fish except the Guardian Fish, a Bitterling, and a Common Carp. It doesn't really matter how much money you have, but I do hope you have at least 1,000 Gold. (5) Finishing the game A. Secret Pond Go back to the Stream. You should have noticed a pond that you could not reach before, but now you can get there. Find the lone tree and use the Axe on it, now follow the path to the pond. Catch a Bitterling (use a small hook an a worm) and catch a Common Carp (Stonefly wet). Now attach a large hook and a Dough Ball and use the Wind Chime. No cast directly into the middle of the pond. The Guardian Fish isn't that hard to catch. B. Saving Teruyo After you catch the Guardian Fish you'll end up at your house and your mother is saving your sister. Your sister will thank you and your mother will tell you to enjoy your fishing. Now the credits will roll. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 17. FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)- Q. Are there more then 40 fish in the game? A. Yes, there are 48. Q. Why? A. Just to spice things up in the game. As most of you know there are only 40 fish in the Game Boy version. Q. What's the point of Chumming if you can just enter a building and all the fish return? A. Chumming is best for areas where you can't get to a building. Q. Is it true Legend of the River King is coming out on Nintendo 64. A. Yes, I believe so. I'll keep any information on that on this FAQ/WALKTHROUGH. Q. Why can't I catch the Guardian Fish? A. You must use a large hook and a Dough Ball. Q. How do you get to Fun Lake? A. Catch all 48 fish then go to sleep at the Inn in the Torrent. Q. Can I be attacked at Fun Lake? A. Nope. Q: What's the point of the game? A: To catch the Guardian Fish and save your sister, and most of all, have fun. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 18. Hints and Tips- * Stonefly wet is the best thing to use in the game. * Only a few fish can resist the Stonefly wet. * Take the long way if it saves you HP. * Never run from a fight, it usually ends up that it fails and you get knocked out. * If you enter a building all the fish will return to there original places, don't waste your Chumming. * Spinner Lure is the best lure. * Worms are the best bait in the game, and the cheapest. * If you need money catch Ayu in the Stream and sell them to the guy by the Restaurant. * If you use the Net and find bait, use the Net one space away, then back where the bait was you'll find more bait. This is an easy way to get tons of free bait. That's all for now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 19. In Game Codes- There aren't that many, but here they are. Music Cheat To play music while fishing, press "A" and go to the Fishing Memo. Then when you continue to fish there will be music, not the fishing sounds. Get Rich Quick If you want a lot of money go to the Stream and catch Ayu and sell them to the Uncle who buys Ayu. Fun Lake To get to Fun Lake catch all 48 fish and then the Guardian Fish. At the end of the credits it will say the Fun Lake has been unlocked. Now go to the Inn at the Torrent and sleep. You'll wake up in Fun Lake. To leave, sleep at the Inn there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 20. Game Shark Codes- Here are all the Game Shark codes I could find. I now have Game Shark and I'll tell you which ones I have got to work. Infinite Health (works): 01FF25D2 Infinite Gold (works): 01FF29D2 All Fish: 01FF26D2 Fun Lake: 01FF27D2 01FF28D2 NOTE: This exactly what the Game Software Creators Club has said.

Whether its the normal Second: GameBoy, the Pocket GameBoy, or the GameBoy Color unit, the codes on our site work if you have 2.1 or higher version GameBoy Cheat Device.

Fun Lake- Fun Lake is really just another "level" with one of every fish. Any records wont be recorded, but you can keep the fish and sell them. To get Fun Lake catch all 48 fish and then the Guardian Fish. It will tell you that you unlocked Fun Lake at the end of the credits. Go to sleep at the Inn at the Torrent to get there. To leave, go to the Inn. There is no fighting, and only one building (the Inn). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 22.
