Greetings to all One Piece Lovers *cough* I mean Fans! I decided to
compile all the FAQs and Guides together from all of my previous post in
the GameFAQs One Piece: GB!3 message board.

I'm really a big big fans of One Piece and I started reading the manga in
the year 1999. I love the manga so I decided to buy the game, I didn't get
the chance to play OPGB! 1 though.. But thank god I saw OPBG! 2 in my
local game store!! I think it was on the year 2002 that I bought my first
copy of OPGB! 2. Back then, unlocking the Training Stage (a.k.a Marine HQ)
was a pain, you have to do 100 counts of blocking the anchor..!! Q__Q;

By the way, do enjoy yourself!!

CiaO!!

Q: I don't usually import games but I love One Piece. Is this game worth
  it or just another anime game only a fan could appreciate?
  Any persuasive details?

A: If you're very very crazy about One Piece, THEN GO and BUY the GAME!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I perform special moves?

A: Lv.1 special = hold L1 or L2 -> X -> Circle
  Lv.1 super special = hold L1 or L2 -> X -> Triangle
  Lv.2 special = hold L1 or L2 -> Square -> X -> Circle
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do you add more damage when using the Level 2 Special move?

A: You can add more damage to the move if your life bar is in critical or lower
  than the opponent's life bar.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I save?

A: Go to options (the hammer animations) and select the 3rd choice,
  then select the 1st command you see and confirm it by choosing the
  "yes" option (the 1st choice) Dont quite understand? Then check out
  >> 03. Main Menu Screen << for more info!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I dont quite get the Training Mode?

A: In training mode, you must perform all the character's Movelist!
  In other words, you must attack your opponent with your attacks
  (i.e O->O->O, X->X->X, X->X->O and etc..)
  Check >> 04. General Movelist << for more info!

  You can check your progress by pressing start and selecting the first
  option, there you'll see your character move-list, if you successfully
  "OK'ed" a move, it would highlight it in red!

  You'll know when you've successfully performed all movelist when a
  "COMPLETE" message appears along with the time!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Why isn't some of the move "OK'ed"?

A: Some of the moves are counter base and some of the other move requires
  the player to carefully calculate the distance between the opponent so
  that the move will connect.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I unlock cards?

A: Beat a stage with your Lv.2 special,
  1 (one) Lv.2 finishing = 2 new cards!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How many cards can we unlock?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What are the 4th costume for Luffy's pirate?

A: Luffy: His childhood costume which is the white t-shirt with Anchor
         logo.

  Zoro: Same like 3rd costume only with red head scarf, black t-shirt
        and grey pants!

  Nami: Her original costume when first introduced in the Buggy saga!

  Chopper: Wearing a white t-shirt with the smiLe logo.

  Usopp: Same like 3rd costume only in green color!

  Sanji: Same like 3rd costume only in white color!

  Robin: Same like the above..

  FYI, Shanks's 3rd costume is from his days back in Luffy's town and
  the 4th one is a color swap of the 3rd. Wiper is the only character
  that just have a 3rd costume, his 3rd costume are from his childhood
  days with a bandana on his head!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

A: Yep.... thats about it I guess!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What will I get for playing at every difficulty level?

A: Normal: Character Voice Test
  Hard: Character Accessories
  Super hard: Player Data
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I unlock the announcer voice?

A: Check the >> 08. The 45 Announcers Voice << for more info!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: For Game Cube, you have to have a memory card formatted for
  Japanese games. Is it the same with PS2 imports? Not a whole ton of
  sense in getting the game if I can't save.

A: Ps2 mem card is different from the Gc ones because you can use the
  same ps2 mem card to save all of your game files, Japanese import, PAL
  and NA version together in just one card!!

  FYI, you must have a fliptop and a swap disk to enable you to by-pass
  the region check on the DVD game so that it can run on a NA/PAL ver.
  If you want, you can even put mod-chip to your PS2 (it allows you to
  play imports and back-up games..)

  Just google for the info on the fliptop, swap disk (freeloader)
  or mod-chip.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Is there any difference between the GC and PS2 Versions?

A: So far, I know that the GC ver. have a "Joy Carry" option which situated
  in the Treasure menu. It allows the user to download the upcoming One
  Piece Baseball game to the GBA. Its just a demo though, with only Luffy
  and Enel are playable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Can you convert the PS2 buttons to the GC ones?

A: Yes!
             PS2          GC
             ---          --
              X       =    A
            Circle    =    X
            Square    =    B
           Triangle   =    Y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Why do you call the L1(holds)->X->Triangle move a Lv.1 super special?

A: I call it Lv.1 because it only uses 1 bar of your power gauge, and
Super Special for its winning star (on the stage card) with a double Star,
same like the Lv.2 Special winning star symbols

+++++++++++++
Author's Tips
+++++++++++++

When you throw the Item Box or Items at the opponent and if it hits
or the opponent grabs, quickly perform your Lv.1 or Lv.2 special!!



-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
->> 06. In-Game Tips <<=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


->>After performing Bon Clay Lv.1 special, quickly press Square
  (for Pandaman's mimic) or Triangle (for Cricket's mimic)


->>If you're on fire, you can transfer the fire to your opponent by
  grabbing them


->>You can add additional damage to your Lv.2 special if your life bar
  is low or critical


->>Eternal Pose (the full-power level up)

  ->If The Red Arrow points Up (increse)
  ->If The Red Arrow points Down (decrese)
  **Note that you can change the pointer directions by grabbing and
    releasing it (not throwing)


->>To delay the bomb from exploding, simply release it and grab it back


->>Press the d-pad for Crocodile to expose his poison hook, it can
  inflict poison to your opponent when you attack


->>To reveal the Dagger on Crocodile's left arm, simply expose his poison
  hook first (by pressing the d-pad) then block (square button) your
  opponent weak attacks (X button) for about 15 hits.. The poison hook
  will break and the Dagger will be reveal


->>Smoker's R1+X grab can cause more damage if grabbing a devil fruit
  user (i.e Luffy, Ace etc..)


->>Some character have a different pose when winning with Perfect
  (i.e Normal win for Smoker is, Tashigi coming forward to Him but with
  Prefect win, Tashigi falls face down to the ground)

  ->Those who have different "perfect" winning pose are Luffy, Usopp,
    Nami, Smoker, Hina, Bon Clay and Enel!


->>Dont go too near when you're grabbing a cloud ball, they might explode,
  burn you etc. Just stand in a save distant where you also can grab 'em


->>When you fight Enel as the final boss (the 5th stage) in Normal, Hard
  or Super Hard, make sure to kill him with Lv1/Lv2 special or just wait
  for the time to end because if you kill him with normal attacks, he
  might resurrect himself (electric jump start) and he'll be in super
  strong mode with his life at half bar (ouch!)


->>When grabbing the pressure dial (the shell thingy), if the opponent
  throws thing at you, it will only hit the dial thus filling it with
  pressure (make sure to throw it when its glowing red)


->>Super Dash towards your opponent: to do this, hold down Square and
  direct the analog stick towards the opponent


->>Devil fruit users take more damage when falling into the sea or river
  (Mock Town and Windmill stage)


->>You can stretch Luffy's Gomu-Gomu no Bazooka for more damage!
  To do this, simply perform X -> X -> hold O


->>The poison effect from the mushroom will greatly do damage to your
  opponent when they grab you!


->>Throw an item box towards your opponent, if it hits or they grab it..
  quickly perform your Lv.1 or Lv. 2 attacks! A fast way for an easy kill!


->>When you get knocked down or hit and you're falling down, quickly hit
  the jump button (/\) to recover from the fall!

++++++++++++++
Author's Tips;
++++++++++++++

I choose Robin as the opponent (Comp.) because she's got the most slowest
Lv.1 special (Flyin Hat) and Lv.2 special (the hands on the ground thingy)

You can easily dodge, run, side step (whatever you call it) from her
special attack and launch your Lv.2 special with 100% hit rate from her
side or back!

But make sure her life bar is below the 2 power (green) circles before
performing your Lv.2 special..

->> 09. Aerial View of 3D Stage Trick <<-
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


Yea its a glitch and theres no doubt that this game have alot of glitches!
But I really like this one!!

-----------------
Air Jumping Trick
-----------------

In Training Mode or in 2 Player Mode, place your opponent near a wall
(or to make it easy, place them in a corner) then jump and step on your
opponent's head, try to keep it that way for about 129 stomps and press
the jump button (triangle) just after you pass the 129 counts! You'll now
be able to do the "air jumping" trick!! >__< Enjoy the VIEW!!

Some example,

Sorry for the low quality of the last 2 screenshots Q__Q;

->> 10. 999 Total Damage In Training Mode Counter <<-
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


In training mode, you'll notice that for every attack you perform, theres
a damage value shown on the damage counter. Check >> 03.4 Training << for
more info!

If you do the Grab move (R1 or R2) twice in a row, you'll see that the
damage counter doesn't reset. So, it is posible that you can make the
total damage counter to 999 by just doing the Grabbing move over and over
again until it reaches the said amount! ^__^;

Heres an example,

(Courtesy of www.urban.ne.jp/home/teracyu4/game/GB3/)

Though.. I'm not quite sure what effects does it bring by doing this to
the overall gameplay



-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
->> 11. Pandaman Guide <<=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


Looking for Pandaman? Here's where you should look..

-----------------
Drum Castle Stage
-----------------

1. Below the glass floor, you'll see Pandaman popping out his head under
the blanket on the bed near the window. This occurs randomly!


---------------------
Alabasta Castle Stage
---------------------

1. You'll see Pandaman popping out his head inside the castle door, this
occurs randomly but the chances for it to happen are high if you set Bon
Clay VS. Nami using this stage, I usually had 2 to 4 tries before seeing
him there!


----------------------
Jaya (Mock Town) Stage
----------------------

1. Throw an item box at Shoujou (the Orangutan in the boat) to reveal
Pandaman hiding below the boat! Hehehh.. Pandaman can actually breathe
under water.. >__<;

2. Dining / sitting at the "Tropical Hotel" restaurant, this occurs
randomly but the chances for it to happen are high if you set Luffy VS.
Smoker using this stage, I usually had 3 to 5 tries before seeing him
there!


-------------------
Skypiea Ruins Stage
-------------------

1. You'll find him hiding inside a ruins just below Conis (near the
staircase), go to that particular place and the walls will disappear thus
revealing Pandaman. This often occurs.. but not always!

2. You'll find Pandaman popping out his head in 1 of the 2 windows near
Lucky (near the staircase), I accidentally found him there while doing
the glitch trick! ^__^ Again, this occurs randomly but the chances for it
to happen are high if you set Wiper VS. Luffy using this stage


------------------
Maxim (Enel) Stage
------------------

1. You can find Pandaman hanging onto the front end (the bottom part)
of the Airship.. He'll eventually pops out from hiding once in awhile..
^___^; This occurs randomly but the chances for it to happen are very
high if you set Zoro VS. Sanji using this stage, you will even get a
texture glitch if you're using this paring. The chances are also high if
you set Luffy VS. Zorro but with no glitch!


-----------------------------
Windmill (Luffy's Town) Stage
-----------------------------

1. You'll find him sitting on the roof of Party's Bar. This occurs
randomly but the chances for it to happen are high if you set Sanji VS.
Zoro using this stage

2. You'll find him onboard of the Going Merry, for about 4 sec or so
he'll wave at you . This occurs randomly but the chances for it to happen
are high if you set Luffy VS. Shanks using this stage, I usually had 3 to
5 tries before seeing him there!


--------------------------------
Training (Marine Holyland) Stage
--------------------------------

1. You'll find him ontop of the fountain behind Mihawk, Doflamingo and
Bishop Bear. This occurs randomly!

2. You'll find him behind the stairs to the right of Mihawk, he'll pops
up every few seconds. This occurs randomly!


-----------
Credit Roll
-----------

In the ending CGI of Luffy & Co. dances with Sky Wolf, you'll see
Pandaman at the very end of the credit roll. He'll be standing on a tree
branch near the top of the tree.
