Lakitus

[Meta Black Yoshi]

About Lakitus, it looks like they can throw manny other things besides spiny eggs. Like Big boulders, other spiky objects, and sometimes 1 up shrooms :/ . So they probably don't have any special relationship with spinies other than them being their wepon of choice most of the time. But where dose all this stuff come from? There could be a diminsional pocket or soem nonsense like that in the cloud, but Lakitus without clouds also seem to have unlimity things to throw with them. IThe onse without clouds could be hiding stockpiles of objects in their hiding places, I might say the onse with clouds could have a slightly disproportionat one in their clouds but sometimes they pull objects out that are bigger even than the cloud and the lakitu comebined! They could be using some kind of magic to teleport objects from a stockpile in a nother location. That might explain why sometimes they throw 1 ups. There could be a 1up growing in the place where they get their misiles and they accedentaly teleport it to themselves and throw it without realizing. And the clouds they use might be being maintained by their magic and that's why they don't last long after the lakitu is gone. Some say it has to do with the weight of someone on it that makes it disaper but even if you don't jump on it it vanishes after a while. And perhaps the lakitus on the ground are at a lower level of using magic and they hide where their stockpiles are because they don't have enugh ability to transport it to them or to ride around on clouds. Lakitu's cloud magicaly made by lakitu?

[shadowgoomba]

Okay, good. Seems logical. That would mean they also use magic to use electric attacks, instead of it directly coming from their clouds. The fact that clouds are associated with lightning would just be some weird form of irony. :/

I don't think it's magic, I always thought there was a spiny nest in the lakitus clouds. And if ruff puffs can use lightning, why can't jungum clouds do it too?

[L.D.]

hammer space is where the spiny's and othre things come from

Well, Ice Puffs use ice and Poison Puffs use poison. I guess Laiku clouds don't have such abilities.

I thought that might be what it was, but that really dosn't explain how they can sometimes pull things out of the cloud that are even larger than the cloud is. One big thing is bad enugh, but infinit?

[shadowgoomba]

There's a lot of things like that. Like the Koopa Klown Car holding Bowser, Peach, Peach's Mushrooms, infinate Mecha-Koopas, and even worse, infinate Big Steelies, for example.

[Rex]

Maybe the clown car has a portible warp pipe in it. Another thing, lakitus don't have infinite spinys, it just looks that way.

[Meta Black Yoshi]

I've never seen one run out....

[Rex]

Infinate eggs is an in-game thing, your more likely to run out of time before you see them run out of eggs. But than again, time limits are also an in-game thing.

[shadowgoomba]

They run out of eggs if too many Spinies are on the field in Paper Mario.

[Rex]

They stop throwing eggs if there are four spinys on the screen.

[Meta Black Yoshi]

But what happens when one spiny leaves?

[Rex]

He throws another one.

[shadowgoomba]

None of the enemies (except bosses if you want to be technical) can leave the area they originally were in.

[Meta Black Yoshi]

What are you talking about?

[shadowgoomba]

I mean that an enemy stays on the screen until you beat it.

[Meta Black Yoshi]

And when that happens, lakitu throws more and more and more and more until you beat lakitu.

[shadowgoomba]

Yeah, and I hate to admit it, but the fact that he stops throwing the Spiny Eggs is probably just a technical thing. (Too many objects on one screen causes a game to freeze up)

[kingkoopa]

Yea Nintendo didn't want to make a game that freezes a lot
