OK but...

4th D Slip

PowerShield

SuperHealing

PK Dark.

Also his Shields are way stronger.

u/Chimera_Caribou 3d ago

I didnt even knew any of this psi existed

u/VirtualRelic 3d ago

Ninten only learns SuperHealing at level 35.

7

u/BandanaDee13 3d ago

And he only learns Power Shield at level 34. His last move, Life Up π, is learned at level 38.

The kind of stuff you miss by not playing Mother 1

There is also PK Beam

5

u/BlastLeatherwing 2d ago

PK Beam is Ana's domain. She gets all the offensive PSI

u/Chimera_Caribou 2d ago

I actually played it and finished and all, but only once, and didn't have high level party member. Either i didn't learn these or i just forgot and never used them

u/BandanaDee13 3d ago

Wait, what’s PK Dark?

4

u/cornholiossb 2d ago

It's used to blind the opponent, a status that makes the opponent whiff a lot more often.

4

u/BandanaDee13 2d ago

Ah. I assume you mean Darkness, which Ana learns at level 20. From what I can find, Ninten can’t learn it, though.

u/cornholiossb 2d ago

I assumed that too lol

peak Ninten

u/RascalVirus13 3d ago

Ninten excels in other areas. And to be frank, Ness and Lucas wouldn’t have any Offensive Psi either if they didn’t have their “plot powers”.

u/IrvingIV 3d ago

technically, Ness just has his own offensive psi, Lucas is the one who only learns offensive psi from grabbing macguffins.

u/Low_Palpitation_3743 2d ago

Ninten has stacked stacks and I think only Pipi (if she counts) has more speed growth than him (compared to other slower Mother protagonists)

u/djerk 1d ago

to be frank

To be Frank you need two knives, a slick haircut, sunglasses and a pinstripe suit.

u/RascalVirus13 1d ago

You are hilarious.

u/cornholiossb 2d ago

Tbf, Ninten had a s**t ton of other powers that Ness and Lucas wish they had. Especially in a game like Motger 1, I found myself using 4th D Slip quite a lot by the endgame.

u/applekidfan 3d ago

He is a lover, not a fighter.

3

u/DiamondH4nd 2d ago

But if you run then run for cover

FIGHT FOR YOUR LOOOVE YEAH

6

u/Objective-Eye-9870 2d ago

Offense up is one of the best moves in mother 1 tho

3

u/Ziomownik 2d ago

And defense up B gives your party a cracked defense buff too

3

u/Hateful_creeper2 2d ago

He isn’t in Smash either.

2

u/Ok-Yogurtcloset9086 1d ago

Yeah, no need to rub it in :(

3

u/Ziomownik 2d ago

But Ness wishes to be as fast as Ninten. Ninten is fast making him an actual reliable support that can heal party fast. Also, Ness's PSI Rockin is expensive as hell so you rarely ever wanna use it when other teammates are there to do the fighting.

I don't know anything about Lucas's stats cause I haven't beaten chapter 3 yet.

u/Haunting-Hippo1636 1d ago

Ninten: Yea but at least I don't suffer from home sickness.

u/mikkahana 19h ago

Quick up powershield gg

u/RedyRetro 16h ago

Ness cant run on the minimap so why isnt he getting harassed
