TTF Whatthe?

[Serpent7]

Couldn't think of a good title..

OK, I know this is probably nothing new, but I'm doing TTF right now, trying to level up, and I went to the hospital to restore my TP. In the hospital, in the far left corner, to the left of the counter, I noticed this weird white telepipe thing. I went in it and pressed A, and was teleported to Ruins 1. I'm playing on my own, I'd just finished the dragon, and I'm on Hard mode. Anyone else notice this? (I don't know what's in the Ruins, I've just done it.)
Any help?


EDIT--- OK, there's nothing in the Ruins, the doors are open, and there's another white thing that transports you back to P2. Weird....

its got something to do with makeing a stiker of chao

[Serpent7]

Ah, I see. Any more info?

The white telepipe thing is actually due to your character holding a Branch of Paku Paku... If this is not the case then I do not know what to say. However if this IS the case then you can simply stand under the waterfall in Ruins 1 for ages and eventually you'll be able to turn your lowly branch into a Striker of Chao, as somebody already said...

[Serpent7]

Awesome! Thanks for that, I'd never heard of that atall! I was holding a BRANCH OF PAKUPAKU, so that makes sense! How long do you have to stand under the waterfall for?

You will keep hearing messages from a chao. Then after a few it will tell you that your Branch has been converted. You should then leave or it will turn back into a Branch again.
