“Native palm trees in Florida include only 12 palm tree species,” said Scott Zona, green house curator at the Departnemt of Biological Sciences. “Some of them are the Paurotis, Needle, Cabbage, Thatch, Silver and Royal palms.”
Miasma skulls destroyed in Tavern District. Time to capture Kettle.
Kettle captured. Time to move to the next event! There are some event tsukumogami that I haven't yet finished. These include Pillow and Case, but I should also be on the lookout for Basin.
I should release beads because beads (yang: 1/3 chance instant kill, yin: (status) 25% chance to prevent status ailments) is less useful than katana (yang: undodgeable heavy damage, yin: (status) extra attack after i attack) and if i capture another one the fifth one gets pushed out. Kettle is finished.
Just looking for Basin and Case now. If I find both I should push out Kettle (yang: (status) recover much HP per turn, yin: (status) 2/3 chance to recover from status ailments) because I have healing items and if I play perfectly I shouldn't lose HP.
possibly useful souls: Top [Speed] (Yang: 50% chance to steal an item, Yin: Doubles your Accuracy for 3 turns) Saddle [Speed] (Yang: Triples your Accuracy for 3 turns), Yin: Evade enemy attacks for a turn Oxcart [Speed] (Yang: 2/3 chance to enemy attack, Yin: 100% chance to hit for 3 turns) Katana [Attack] (Yang: Deals heavy damage, Yin: Attacks after you attack) Kusarigama [Attack] (Yang: Deals heavy damage, Yin: 25% chance to inflict Paralysis on the opponent for 3 turns) Spoon [Healing] (Yang: Damages and recovers HP, Yin: Increases HP recovery by 20% (max 5 times)) Chopsticks [Healing] (Yang: Damages and recovers HP, Yin: Increases HP recovery by 20% (max 5 times)) Cauldron [Healing] (Yang: Damages and recovers HP, Yin: 2/3 chance per turn to recover from any status ailments) Teapot [Healing] (Yang: Recover a medium amount of HP, Yin: Recover a small amount of HP) Kettle [Healing] (Yang: Recover a large amount of HP per turn, Yin: 2/3 chance per turn to recover from status ailments) Pot [Healing] (Yang: Recover a large amount of HP per turn, Yin: Boosts your Attack, Defense, Evasion, and Accuracy a little) Stove [Healing] (Yang: Recover a medium amount of HP per turn, Yin: Increases HP recovery by 20% (max 5 times)) Sutra [Divine] (Yang: 2/3 chance to revive upon death, Yin: Grants +30% EXP gain) Basin [Carry] (Yang: Recover a medium amount of HP, Yin: Decreases enemy Defense by 50%) Mirror [Joy] (Yang: Reflects enemy attacks for 3 turns, Yin: 1/3 chance to revive upon death) Dustpan [Joy] (Yang: Doubles an item's effect, Yin: 2/3 chance to steal an item)
The way attributes work: Attack-types make my sword wear out more slowly, Heal-types make my hunger increase more slowly, Divine-types make enemies move more slowly (on the map view presumably), Carry-types increase carrying capacity, Defense-types increase my defense. Joy-types don't do anything? I'm not sure. Also I might need multiples of these to get the effects I want. Not sure.
The way types interact with gems: * I have five gems in which to hold tsukumogami. * The first gem holds the first tsukumogami I capture. When I capture another one, the first gem holds the new one and the old one is pushed to the second gem. This way, I can fill five gems. If I capture more after five gems are filled, the sixth one is pushed onto the first gem and the one on the fifth gem is released. * Each captured tsukumogami grants me two abilities: a Yang and a Yin ability. I can use Yin abilities after defending enough, and Yang abilities after landing enough hits on the opponent. Some of these abilities are one-time things that I have to reactivate to re-use. Others grant a status effect that stays for a while. Let's call Yang and Yin "classes" so as to not confuse them with "types". * I can only use one ability of a given class before I need to refill my class gauge by defending or attacking (as appropriate). * Each gem has a type attribute, and when that gem stores a tsukumogami of the same type, using any of that tsukumogami's abilities does NOT deplete the class gauge -- meaning that I can use that ability over and over again, or use it and then use something else.
Type attributes of the gems: 1. Speed 2. Heal 3. Defense 4. Divine 5. Attack
Needle discovered and captured. Tatami discovered. Needle completed and released. Basin captured. Armor discovered. Barrel discovered. Basin completed.
Release Basin or Pot?
Recovering HP every turn is probably more useful than recovering just some HP. I would depend on Katana's heavy hits for dealing damage against heavily-defended enemies though.
Barrel captured. Turns out it's actually not too bad. Yang ability Bodhisattva Sake "Recovers a large amount of HP", and Yin ability Barrel Drop "Deals medium damage". I should consider having it and Basin together, rather than Pot.
The fourth skull was indeed hidden behind the miniboss, and I enjoyed just how smoothly I dispatched it, thanks to using abilities that prevent its healing, and deal damage while I'm blocking. I personally did piddly damage, but I turned on a skill that did a little bit of even more piddly damage after myself, and I also repeatedly used Barrel Drop and Cleave. Barrel Drop was by far the funnier of the two.
Well now I can drop this Wand and capture another tsukumogami. Though to be fair, its Crossed Fingers yin ability was what allowed me to prevent this skeleton miniboss from healing a few times...
Preventing enemy healing is more important. Oxcart released.
Helmet discovered and captured. Lute discovered. Helmet completed and released.
Tatami captured, completed, and released.
Still waiting for Lute, Lyre, Basket, and Comb.
Lyre discovered, captured, finished, and released. Lyre's Yang ability, which uses the following ability twice, is actually pretty useful, but we need to raise other ones for now.
Long-term observations of fairy rings on Shillingstone Hill in Dorset, England, further suggested that the cycle depended on the continuous presence of rabbits. Chalky soils on higher elevations in the counties of Wiltshire and Dorset in southern England used to support many meadow-type fairy rings. Rabbits crop grass very short in open areas and produce nitrogen-rich droppings. Mushrooms need more soil nitrogen than grass does. A ring can start from a single spore from which the mycelium develops; the fruiting bodies of the mushrooms only appearing later, when sufficient mycelial mass has been generated to support them. Subsequent generations of fungi grow only outwards, because the parent generations have depleted their local nitrogen levels. Meanwhile, rabbits keep cropping the grass, but do not eat the fungi, allowing them to grow through their competition to tower, relatively, above the grass. By the time a circle of mushrooms reaches about 6 metres (20 ft) in diameter, rabbit droppings have replenished the nitrogen levels near the centre of the circle, and a secondary ring may start to grow inside the first.[citation needed]
In Australia, where it is called choko, a persistent urban legend is that McDonald'sapple pies were made of chayotes, not apples.[11] This eventually led McDonald's to emphasise the fact that real apples are used in their pies. This legend was based on an earlier belief that tinned pears were often disguised chayotes. A possible explanation for the rumor is that there are a number of recipes in Australia that advise chayotes can be used in part replacement of canned apples to make the fruit go farther in making apple pies. This likely arose because of the economies of "mock" food substitutes during the Depression Era,[12] shortages of canned fruit in the years following World War II, and the fact apples do not grow in many tropical and subtropical parts of Australia, making them scarce. Chayotes, on the other hand, grow extensively in Australia, with many suburban backyards featuring chayote vines growing along their fence lines.
Another possible reason for the rumor of McDonald's apple pies containing chayotes was that it was thought that apples would degenerate and become soggy and inedible in a McDonald's pie, whereas chayotes are well known to retain their firmness and consistency after cooking, freezing, and reheating. It was thought that the "chunks" of apple in the pie were in fact chunks of chayote, and the sauce and filling were simply a spiced, apple-flavored concoction.

Kettle captured. Time to move to the next event! There are some event tsukumogami that I haven't yet finished. These include Pillow and Case, but I should also be on the lookout for Basin.
Kettle/Beads/Umbrella/Katana/Painting
how they're actually spelled: cryska and inia
I should release beads because beads (yang: 1/3 chance instant kill, yin: (status) 25% chance to prevent status ailments) is less useful than katana (yang: undodgeable heavy damage, yin: (status) extra attack after i attack) and if i capture another one the fifth one gets pushed out. Kettle is finished.
Just looking for Basin and Case now. If I find both I should push out Kettle (yang: (status) recover much HP per turn, yin: (status) 2/3 chance to recover from status ailments) because I have healing items and if I play perfectly I shouldn't lose HP.
Pillow and Case finished.
I should get myself Somethingelse/Healingspirit/Somethingelse/Azusa Bow/Katana, considering that both Pillow and Case are kinda useless too.

Time to hunt for the last 10 tsukumogami, plus Basin!
Release Basin or Pot?
Recovering HP every turn is probably more useful than recovering just some HP. I would depend on Katana's heavy hits for dealing damage against heavily-defended enemies though.
I can deal with that. Bye bye Basin.
I've run across two cursed skulls. I can break them but I can't approach them because I don't have a Divine type spirit.
So my open slot will go to either a Divine type spirit or something I haven't captured before.
Turns out it's actually not too bad. Yang ability Bodhisattva Sake "Recovers a large amount of HP", and Yin ability Barrel Drop "Deals medium damage". I should consider having it and Basin together, rather than Pot.
Barrel completed. Pot released.
Barrel is especially useful because it has an attacking Yin skill...which means it can damage the target even while I'm defending.
Two cursed skulls broken. I think there's a third one.
Comb discovered. Third skull broken -- there's a fourth one. Probably behind this miniboss here...
Well now I can drop this Wand and capture another tsukumogami. Though to be fair, its Crossed Fingers yin ability was what allowed me to prevent this skeleton miniboss from healing a few times...
Helmet discovered and captured. Lute discovered. Helmet completed and released.
Tatami captured, completed, and released.

Lyre discovered, captured, finished, and released. Lyre's Yang ability, which uses the following ability twice, is actually pretty useful, but we need to raise other ones for now.
Comb captured, finished, and released.
Basket captured. Spear released. Basket finished.
C'mon, Lute!
also for anyone curious i finished 99 spirits a couple days ago. 100% and all. good game.

the ghost pokémon are ghost pokémon, living entities that have ghostly powers
presumably they may come from the spiritual energy of the deceased pokémon of pokémon tower

that spiritual energy thing can explain why they're cloaked in the tower, but not cloaked when encountered out in the field in johto
