I. Intro

Car Battler Joe is an entertaining RPG by Natsume for the Gameboy
Advance.  Like the old PC game Autoduel, it features a person engaging
in battle on the roadways of the future.  It also has a collectibility
thing going on, as you try to get all the different car parts in the
game.  Sort of like Pokemon if Mad Max was the trainer.  :)

The cast of characters:

Joe Todoroki:  The hero of the story, Joe is a 16-year-old who finds out
that his family is part of the elite group known as Car Battlers.  He
drives an A-type Panther.

Pal:  Joe’s G-Com.  Pal hooks up to Joe’s gun vehicle to enable weapons
firing.  Pal also does most of the talking for Joe.

Jim Todoroki: Joe’s father, who has been missing for 12 years.  Where’s
my child support money?  Jim is considered to be the greatest Car
Battler ever. He drives a modified A-type Panther.

Wanna: Joe’s mother, who is strangely supportive of her missing husband
and his dangerous lifestyle.  She’s quite a mechanic also.

Takah: Owner of the Padorko weapon shop.  He provides much assistance to
Joe.

Marion: A young girl that Joe transports to a mountain village.

Harry: A former Grand Prix champion that now lives in seclusion.

Chao: A pop singer popular in Coneha.

Shirley Dohmo: Leader of the Dohmo Family gang.  She drives a modified
C-type Eagle.

Casey: Another member of the Dohmos, he worships Shirley.  He drives a
unique Panther that looks like a ladybug.

Ken Kaido: A young man who is your rival, and claims to have trained
with none other than your father!  He drives a modified D-type Tiger.

Sho Kaido: Leader of the Red Guns gang.  A mysterious Robin Hood-like
character, known as the “Battler of the Wild”.  Drives a modified A-type
Tiger.

Ryu Mossoud:  Leader of the Empire gang.  Reportedly his gang has
uncovered some ancient technology which has made them the most feared
Car Battlers on the road.

II.  Play Mechanics

The controls are fairly simple in this game.  You walk around with the
control pad and talk to people with the A button.  The B button makes
you run.  Press start to bring up the menus.

When driving your car, the following controls are used.  Press the A
button to accelerate.  Letting go of the A button causes your car to
slowly deccelerate.  Press left or right while driving to turn your car.
You can also turn while stopped, but this turning is slower than if you
are moving.  Hold down on the control pad and press A to drive
backwards.  You can turn while driving backwards by pressing *slightly*
to the right or left.  If you press too much to the side your car will
start going forward again.

The R shoulder button fires weapons.  If there is an enemy in range of
one of your weapons (a cross-hairs of some kind will appear), then that
weapon will fire.  Otherwise, pressing this button causes your default
weapon to fire (whichever one is in the first position).  It's a very
good idea to make a fast-firing weapon your default.

The L shoulder button causes your car to eject any material it is
carrying.  This is used when you want to pick up a new item but don't
have space for it.  The object in the last position is ejected first.
The ejected material can damage enemy vehicles, so use it when they try
to sneak behind you.

The B button combined with a direction on the control pad activates your
Overdrive.  You don't start with any Overdrives.  You will have to find
them in stores or scattered around the countryside.  Up to three
Overdrives can be assigned at any time.  The up position contains
Overdrives that let you jump over obstacles or dash quickly.  The side
position contains Overdrives that let you turn quickly or slide. The
back position contains Overdrives that let you turn invisible or put up
protective shields.

III.  Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why can’t I enter the tournament in Coneha?

A: You need to increase your license rank in Coneha first.

Q: I just beat the tournament in Coneha. What do I do now?

A: The game will not progress any further until you get your garage up
to level 7. At that point you can go to Georgetown and continue the
story.

Q: How do I get a new car?

A: In order to build a new car, you must have a Chassis, Engine, and
Body of the same animal type (Panther, Tiger, Mammoth, or Eagle). The
quickest way to get a Tiger is to win the tournament in Coneha. The
quickest way to get a Mammoth is to collect the parts found from
Hollyview to Nameless Village, Nameless Village to Oasis, and Hoden to
Hollyview. The quickest way to get an Eagle is to collect the parts
found from Guts to Sashim Plaza and Guts to Hoden. After you get one of
each type of part, go to your house (or any computer terminal) and
select Build.

Q: Where can I find more raw materials for my garage or town?

A: Food and Cement can be bought in Padorko. IronFrms can be bought in
Coneha. MinWater and Gasoline can be bought in the Nameless Village.
Junk cannot be bought, but you can find it easily on the route from
Oasis to Sashim Plaza. Also note that unidentified Junk and things Takah
identifies as “justjunk” both fulfill the requirements of your garage.
So don’t sell your junk!

Q: How do I see Marion again? And how do I enter the Grand Prix?

A: You can’t do either. The game is over once you reach this point.

IV.  Walkthrough

You begin the game as Joe Todoroki, a boy who has just turned 16.
First, your friends challenge you to a demolition derby.  Drive your car
around and try to smash into the enemy vehicles.  Oddly enough, this
seems to be the only battle in the game where you can damage other
vehicles by driving into them.  Why Natsume didn't incorporate that into
the rest of the game is a mystery.  Anyway, regardless of how you do,
you'll go back home and be given your birthday present.  A new car!
Actually, it's your old car.  But what you didn't know is that it's
really a GUN VEHICLE in disguise!  Whoo!  You also get a robotic
navigator for your vehicle, Pal, who also will be speaking for you for
the rest of the game.  Next, you head next door to Takah's.  Takah will
teach you the basics of driving and administer the license test.  I
tried several different things and was unable to get anything but a "B"
rank.  Apparently that's the only rank you can possibly get.

After the test, you go back to Takah's office.  Check the left bookcase
for a HPRest20.  Takah will give you your first job.  You have to drive
to Killanov Ruins, pick up a package, and bring it back to Takah.

Padorko->Killanov R.

Nothing fancy here. Blow up the three rocks along the way.  They contain
50 gold, 400 gold, and a Gem.  Gems can be traded in much later in the
game for special equipment.  When you get to the ruins, go to the back
to get a package from the old man.

Killanov R.->Padorko

There are some stronger enemies this time.  The first rock now contains
400 gold, the second a piece of Junk.  Run over it to carry it behind
you on your hook.  About 3/4 of the way back, you will run into a more
dangerous enemy.  Shoot it as it runs in circle around you.  Eventually
it will die and you will get the CardOD12.  Finally, the last rock
contains a (now useless) HPRest50.

Back in Padorko, collect your money from Takah.  Then use your CardOD12.
Now you know the Spin 60 Overdrive.  Select Overdrive in the menu and
assign it to the side slot.  By pressing B and left or right, you can
spin your car quickly.  Next, your mom will turn her house into a Garage
for you.

At this point you have some freedom on where to go.  First, have Takah
inspect the junk you picked up.  It's a NapTorch!  Go back to your
Garage and put it on your car using the Convert menu.  Now, you can take
jobs from Takah, drive to other cities, or bring your mom materials to
build her Garage with.  Let's go to Samoge first.

Padorko->Samoge

Stay to the left, and follow the route symbol.  About halfway through is
a tree with the CardOD4.  This is the very useful Jump Overdrive, which
will let you access places that you couldn't before.  Nothing else is of
note here.  Try to pick up some cargo that your mom can use to build her
Garage.

Padorko->Guts

After driving a short way, you will find your path blocked off by trees.
In order to get past, you will have to use the Jump Overdrive that you
picked up on the way to Samoge.  Build up a little speed, then press up
and B to jump on top of the trees.  Once you're on top of an obstacle,
you can just drive anywhere on top of it.  Hug the right wall and follow
the route.  Towards the end you will find a CardBPrUp.  This improves
your car's hit points and defenses when used.  Once in Guts, talk to the
man.  Now you can bring materials to this village to build it up just
like your Garage.

Padorko->Coneha

Hug the left wall all the way around.  After a while, you'll see a big
gun emplacement.  Destroy it to get a CardOD1.  This is the SuperDash
Overdrive.  Continue into the area that the gun emplacement was
guarding.  Eventually you will find a big tree in front of some woods.
Destroy the tree, then jump onto the woods.  This leads to a small area
where you fight a tough car.  The car drops a Panther ChasNML+1.
Nothing special, but hey, it's free.  There's also a gem laying on the
ground.

Coneha is a big city, with everything Padorko has and a bit more.  The
License Center is here.  You can take tests to increase your rank, but
you probably won't be able to pass until you upgrade your car a bit.

At this point the story won't progress until you've done a few jobs.  At
some point Takah will tell you about a special job where you will
transport a young girl.

Padorko->Samoge

Nothing special here.  Be sure to unload your cargo when you get to
Samoge.

Samoge->Fino

Hug the right wall.  A Gun emplacement drops a CardBPrUp.  After that is
a rock with $400 and a PEngNT3 laying on the ground. Later on, there's a
rock with a gem.

Defeat Bandit Abul!

Follow the route and destroy the cars as you go.  The fight against Abul
is really easy because he's so slow.

Enjoy the cutscenes with Marion, then continue on.

Tyroka->Jimbah

Hug the left wall.  Jump over the forest to find a TEngNT1.

Jimbah->Hoden

Shortly after you enter , you'll encounter a very large vehicle.
Destroy it to get a NapBomb.

Hoden->Runaha

Hug the wall to the right.  Jump over the forest and continue to the
right to find a LongLasr.

Runaha->Holly View

Hug the right wall.  There’s a CardCPwrUp lying on the ground.  Later on
there’s a rock with $1000.

In Holly View, unpack your cargo and talk to Harry.  He gives you his
CardNav40.

Holly View->Nameless Village

Hug the left wall.  Destroy a rock to get a MChasSPR.  Right before the
end, turn right and there’s a large vehicle that drops a SuprBSaw.
There’s also a rock near the beginning that has $1000 under it.

Nameless Village->Oasis

Hug left wall.  Destroy a rock to get a MBodA01.

Oasis->Sashim Plaza

Hug left wall.  Destroy large vehicle to get CardOD15-Longslide.

Find the Black Box

Just follow the car tracks until you find the box lying on the ground.
Now Casey will challenge you to a fight.  Rather easy - just shoot him
as he circles around you.

=====================
At this point there are several new roads open to you that you can
explore.  These are all optional, but you can get some good car parts
here.

Guts->Sashim Plaza

Jump over forest to left to find an EEngNT2.

Guts->Hoden

Hug left wall.  Destroy gun emplacement to get a gem. Continue into area
behind gun to fight a large vehicle.  When killed, it drops a CardOD02.
Use this to get the Hyper-Dash Overdrive.  Much further on is another
gun emplacement that drops a gem.  Jump over the forest to the left to
find an EBodDOM and an EChasNML.  Sweet!

Hoden->Holly View

Hug the right wall.  Jump on top of the forest to the right to get a
MEngDT2.  Later on there will be a tree with a CardCPrUp.  Towards the
end will be another forest that you can jump on to get the PBodMLN.

Padorko->Tyroka

Hug the right wall.  Eventually you will see a gun emplacement.  Behind
it is an area with a MEngNT2.   In the second area, continue hugging the
right wall.  Destroy several gun emplacements to get a CardBPrUp and
other minor items.  There is a large vehicle there that carries
CardOD11.  This enables the Spin30 Overdrive.

Jimbah->Runaha

Hug the right wall.  Jump over the forest to the right to get the
MBodB01.  Towards the end jump over another forest to get a NapMine.
==========================
To proceed with the story, visit the Nameless Village.  There is some
gossip there about your father.

Ken appears and challenges you to a duel.  Take him out easily.

Visit Padorko, talk to Takah, and enter the tourney.  Drive to Coneha.
Go to the hotel. where the owner gives you a HPRes100.

There are 4 rounds of combat at the tourney.  You can rest and buy
equipment after each one.  Unfortunately, you are not able to reach the
finals due to an unexpected problem.  You’ll need to go to Tasmatan to
check it out.

Coneha->Hawk Pode

Hug left wall.  Destroy rocks for some money and a shortcut.

Hawk Pode->Tasmatan

Start by heading to the left.  Jump onto the rocky area and destroy the
gun to get a NapMiss.  Now cross over to the other side of the route and
jump over the rocky area to get a PBodKKC.   Continue on the right side
to encounter a large vehicle that drops CardOD22.  This gives you the
Invisible Overdrive.

In Tasmatan, you’ll encounter a familiar face.  Casey is back, and he’s
piloting a large mecha.  But he’s still as easy as before.  After
defeating him, the tournament will resume and you’ll face Ken Kaido in
the Championship bout.  Ken quite a bit harder than Casey, but still
nothing you can’t handle.  After winning, you get some money and a
complete Tiger gun vehicle.  Check your garage to find a car with
TChasSPR, TEngST1, TBodBo2, CrssVulc, LsrMine, APCannSP, and RearShll.

========================
A couple of new routes are available at this point.

Coneha ->Miller Hassah

Hug the left wall and jump over the forest to get CardOD05.  This gives
you the Long-jump Overdrive.

Miller Hassah->Oasis

Hug the left wall.  Jump over the forest to get a RearMine.  Later on
there will be another forest to jump over, leading to an enclosed area.
There is an enemy to fight here that drops the TBodSKL
========================

At this point the game will not continue until you build your garage up
to level 7 (the mobile garage).  Once you’ve done that, go to Miller
Hassah to see the Red Guns in action.  Go back to Padorko to talk to
Takah, then go to your house to meet Sho Kaido, leader of the Red Guns.

Padorko->Georgetown

In the first route, there isn’t anything special.
In the second route, head left onto the water to find a PBodC01.  Then
go right and destroy a gun to get CardOD03.  This gives you the Nitro
Overdrive.
In the third route, head left to find a CrssBeam.  Then go back to the
right.  Destroy a tree to get a CardCPrUp, then destroy a large vehicle
to get an EChasSPR.

Georgetown->Remaveh

In the first route, hug the right wall.  There’s a small path guarded by
guns.  Inside is a large vehicle that drops an EBodB02.
In the second route, head left.  There’s an invisible enemy that drops
CardOD16.  This gives you the Hyper-slide Overdrive.

Remaveh->Mirage City

Hug left wall.  After a long time, you will find a gun that drops
CardOD24.  This gives you the Invisible X Overdrive.  When you get to
the exit, don’t go in, but continue on.  Eventually you will run into
another gun that drops a GorgBombX.

Now you fight someone familiar - your father!  You can’t hurt him thanks
to his permanent barrier.  After your life drops down to ¼, Sho will
arrive to help out.  He drops a HPResAll and takes out Jim’s barrier.

After you win, you end up back in Georgetown.  Jim has a heart-to-heart
with you and you both decide to go get the Empire!

Georgetown->Rusty

In the first route, hug the left wall.  There are some guns which drop a
CardCPrUp, a gem, and a BeamVlcX.
In the second route, hug the right wall.  Jump over the rocks to reach a
PBodD03. Eventually you will come to a gun that guards a small enclosed
area to the left There is a vehicle there that drops a PChasHYP.

In Rusty, unload your car and get ready to continue.

Rusty->Enemy’s Hideout Area

Hug the right wall to find an EBodEZM.

Yet another easy battle with Ken.

Enemy’s Hideout Area->Empire HQ

Hug the right wall.  Jump over the wall and destroy the pillbox to get
CardOD23.  This gives you the Barrier Z Overdrive.

Battle Ryu Mossoud

After you damage him, he’ll put up an unstoppable barrier.  Just let him
damage you and the cavalry will arrive.

Be careful after his barrier drops!  Your life is rather low and he can
still take you out quickly.
======================
After the game is over, several new routes open up.  You can also build
up two more cities (Fry and Ramoha).  Also, when you start a new game,
you can keep your old cars and equipment.

Georgetown->Coneha

In the first area, hug the left wall.  Jump over the forest to an area
where you fight a flying enemy.  It drops an EBodC02.  Then go back to
the beginning and hug the right wall instead.  You will encounter two
special enemies.  One drops a TBodC03, and the second drops a PBodC02.
In the second area, hug the left wall.  You will eventually fight a
large enemy that drops a MBodD03.

Georgetown->Fry

As you start, you will see an EEngST1 on top of some trees to the right.
Continue hugging the right wall and you will come to a FstBeam lying on
top of some trees.

Killanov Ruins->Ramoha

Hug the left wall.  A small area contains a PEngXT.  Later on, jump over
the rocks to find a MBodLEG.

Remaveh->Ramoha

Hug the right wall.  Jump over the forest to fight a vehicle that drops

machine, or you can input a password to create a new car from scratch.
There is one known built-in password: TODOROKI. This gives you a PbodJim
with a SupVulc, MicrMiss, UltBSaw, and RearThdr. However you can get any
vehicle in the game if you can figure out the correct password. Here are
a few:
