Cutscene

It appears you are in a broke down city now. You see Lucas sadly walking across the street who then notices the purple blobs coming down behind him. Primids appear and Lucas freaks out scared. To top it off a giant Porky statue joins the fun! Lucas screams and runs for it. Way to defend yourself there Lucas.

This part involves a giant Porky statue chasing you. Just jump over any obstacles and enemies in your path and keep running to the right. Don't worry; the giant Porky statue will take care of anything you don't. A new enemy called Buckots will appear here also but you will hardly notice them with that little statue chasing you. Hit the pink switches at the closed gates to advance. The 3rd pink switch will be on the ceiling for you to open that gate.

After a while the statue will fall into the water. Don't be fooled by this! After you make it back to the land it will leap out of the water to chase you again! Make sure you stay on the right side of the screen so you don't get stomped on by a 2 ton stone statue.

Cutscene

Lucas is still running from the statue. He trips over something and prepares to be smashed by the statue. Just then Ness comes to save the day with a PK Thunder and knocks the statue over! Lucas, now tell me why you couldn't have done that in the first place instead of dodging 20 enemies and running through gates and obstacles instead of a simple PK thunder? Why Lucas why? Ness then breaks apart the stone statue with a PK frost and inside you find your 3rd boss Porky!

Porky does some fast attacks as well as shooting out a couple of deadly beams. If you just keep attacking him he will go down soon enough. Not much too it.

Cutscene

Lucas runs up to Ness scared as always and the duo find Wario pointing a trophy gun down their throats. He fires about 5 blasts at Ness, who rolls out of the way of all of them, until he realizes Lucas is the much easier target. Ness sees this and runs back to shove Lucas out of the way and get hit by the trophy gun instead of Lucas. Lucas runs away as Wario claims his prize. Some friend you got there eh ness?

Lucas eventually runs into the Pokemon Trainer who is getting ready to deal with about 20 Primids! Lucas sees this and gets ready to run another mile in the opposite direction until the Pokemon Trainer comforts him and sends out his Squirtle Pokemon!

You can now pick Lucas or Pokemon Trainer. I prefer Lucas because he has better long range abilities than Pokemon Trainer which you will need for this upcoming part. Try to take this part nice and slow because it has lots of traps and annoying enemies.

Start off by heading right. Jump over the spike traps and climb the ladder. Now just jump off to the right and try to stay in the air as long as you can while heading to the right. Continue right and you will meet another new enemy called the Floow in a forced battle. These guys usually come in groups and can rack up damage on you very quickly. Also they regenerate their health. Sounds like a fun combination doesn't it? Lucas' up smash works wonders on them. If you start to damage one make sure you keep attacking it until it dies otherwise it will run off to regenerate health. After you finally defeat all the Floows you will encounter a big hut with an entrance outside of it on the right end of the stage. Enter it like you would any normal door.

Go right and hit the pink switch to open the gate. You will find a new enemy here called the Bytans. They love to multiply themselves at an alarmingly fast rate so kill the ones that are spawning more first. Kill them all quickly as they love to annoy you to no ends. After you take care of all of them take the upper path to the right for ORANGE CUBE #9. Keep going right and get rid of the portal and Bytans. Go up and enter the door on the high platform.

Jump on the springs to jump really high and over the brick wall blocking you from continuing to the right. When you can drop down, do it, and head back left. Enter the red door. You will find ORANGE CUBE # 10 here and a green cube with goodies. As well as a lovely carpet decorated with spikes just waiting for you to walk across. Deny it the pleasure and grab the cubes then leave back through the door you came in. Head right and try to keep jumping on the springs and stay in the air as long as you can to avoid spike traps and enemies. Grab the green cube along the way for some goodies.

You will eventually come to a forced battle with Primids and Tickens which you know how to deal with by now. After you beat them you can find a green cube below you if you go to the right a little and drop down. Use the springs to jump over the giant spiked poles and head right a bit more to finally reach the end of the stage!

Cutscene

In the cutscene Pokemon Trainer brings back Squirtle into the poke ball after seeing they took care of all the Primids. He waves goodbye to Lucas and walks off. Lucas doesn't want to be left alone again so he runs up to Pokemon Trainer and decides to join him to have him do Lucas' dirty work.
