 This one is probably the hardiest dungeon up to now mainly due to
 2 enemies - Faerie and Iron Spear. Try not engaged in close contact
 with Faeries (advanced version of Slyph) as they could not only cast
 magic, they could dealt combo melee attacks when in close range. Use
 Max's gun for a easy battle. Handle Iron Spear with Ridepod and dodge
 its homing missiles!

 Spheda Prize: 1x Witch Parfait

 In my opinion, it is possible to get the medal on first try except
 that you need to move against Iron Spear. While Iron Spear is firing
 homing missiles, dodging the missiles will be your priority as you
 can attack it later. For an easy battle, just use Ridepod for this
 floor.

 Floor 8-16: Death End 2
 ------------------------
 At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will
 forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 6x Skeleton-like enemies

 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 Exploding Skeletal Dude
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 This one is quite easy if you have a 500 atk power LEGEND. Since
 those Rare Jackets can attack Max when they are in close range, you
 can use Max's charged attack, which deals a spin attack that attack
 all enemies surrounding Max. If Max's weapon has at least 200+
 exorism point, you will be able to end the battle in no time. Luckily,
 Rare Jacket does not have a beam slash like Bone Lord. You may want
 to try throwing Holy Water at them...

 Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the
 chests. The 2 chests contains an Absorption Coin and a Moon Stone.

Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish
your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice
Ball, etc)

Return back to Floor 8-11: Which One?. Take the moon path this time.

 Those giantic elephants are back (Behemoth) and you should be able

 with it. Bundou is an advanced version of the Gyumo. Just use Max's

 Floor 8-21: Dead End 3
 ------------------------
 At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will
 forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 2x Trigriff-like enemies

 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 Flappin' Brothers
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 These 2 Sphinxes are hard. Their attacking style is similiar to
 Leogriff. They can shower you with energy spikes and swoop down with
 claw swipe. The best method to defeat them is to use Ridepod or you
 can get directly underneath them and use Monica with her sword
 slashing, which is quite risky if Monica get hit by their attacks.

 Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the
 chests. The 3 chests contain a Dynamite (key item), Poison Coin and
 Experience Coin

Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish
your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice

 Floor 8-21: Dead End 3
 ------------------------
 At the start of the battle, there will be a cutscene and you will
 forced to fight a sub-boss comprises of 5x Himarra-like enemies.

 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 Battleplant Squad
 The Mandrakez
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 Like the one against Rare Jackets, you can wipe them with Max's spin
 attack or Ridepod run-and-hit tactic. This one is quite easy as
 Monica's normal sword combo can hit them all. There are 5 of them.
 Each Mandora could causes harmful status ailment with its spit
 attack. The fighting style of the enemy is relatively similar to the
 Himarra.

 Remember to collect your ABS and Glidas before proceeding to the
 chests. The 2 chests contain a Diamond each.

Once you are done, save your game and exit Zelmite Mines to replenish
your stocks back to maximum (i.e. 20 Premium Chicken, 20 Plum Rice
Ball, etc). Equip the Camera for Max, as an upcoming scoop...

 Metal Flotsam                      THIS IS THE ONLY CHANCE THAT YOU
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~    CAN GET THIS SCOOP.

 Flotsam has the ability to fly and drop bombs as he fly. Make use of
 Monica's homing magic. While he lands, use Monica's combo immediately.
 Once a combo is done, dodge and fire your magic until Flotsam comes
 down again. This battle can be quite easy if you use Ridepod. Max's
 hand gun works well. Flotsam can deliever a punch that deals damage
 that surround him, so watch out!

 Make sure that you take the game's last scoop. You need it to defeat
 the final boss! After defeating Flotsam, there will be some cutscenes
 regarding the person who gives Flotsam this new unearthly power...

 Build Ridepod the Nova Cannon IV and you will need the Sun Stone
 that you have found eariler in the dungeon for it. Once you are done,
 proceed to the next floor.

 Spheda Prize: 1x Garnet

 Believe it or not. This floor is extremely tough if you do not have
 Ridepod's Nova Cannon IV. Last Guardian is the strongest Masked
 Tribesman and it is really hard to beat unless you run to its back
 and whack it. However, normally they are quite close to "snipers" -
 Smiling Wolf. So make use of Ridepod to finish out the "snipers"
 first before fighting the last Guardian.

 The subsequent floors are really the challenging dungeon floors of
 the game if you take the Moon Path. Likewise, you can move pass the
 area by taking the Sun Path and just completed 3 more stages to beat
 the game. As for the walkthrough, I would go for the Moon Path. If
 you take the Sun Path, please refer to Floor 8-34: "Omen" for more
 details.

 Take the Moon Path.

 This is another tough floor unless you have gotten Nova Cannon IV.
 Use Ridepod's range attack to attack the Cerbeus (the strongest
 versions of Statue Dog) and Krau Mauness (the strongest version of
 Sonic Bomber). Imps are damaging too but they are vulnerable to last
 attack. When they get close your character, stop firing and run away.
 Lock-on again and resume firing. Imps are the strongest versions of
 the Sylphs!

 Watch out for Death Rope and Busy Moler. They have the ability to
 burrow underground like their predessors. Homing attacks such as
 Laser Arm IV and Monica's magic is pretty useful against them along
 with Max's spin attack (useful against Molers). As the Dead Rope
 (Killer Snake), use Ridepod. Bambamchoo and Mrs. Gourgon can cause
 status ailments with their projectiles. Make sure you have equipped
 a Anti-Petrify Amulet to guard against petrification.

 Remove the seal using a seal breaking scroll, which can be purchased
 from Morton's Sundries.

 * If you have taken the Sun Path, just defeat all enemies and
   proceed to the Floor 8-33. Next continue with the walkthrough.

 All the enemies here are strong and tough. They are capable of
 dealing 70 to 100+ hit points of damage. They will deal more when
 they are in pumped-up status (i.e. all rage counters have been used
 up). Spinning Saucer requires you to defeat it with a lot of hits,
 while Tiamat (dragon) has the capability of causing Stop and Thirst
 on your character with its attack. Bone King can does a beam slash
 that deal 70+ damage when not guarded. Quite a tough floor.

Floor 8-37: Zelmite Mine Depths
---------------------------------
Upon reaching the floor, use the Dynamite at the pile of rocks which are
blocking your path. Next you will finally find Zelmite along with the
mastermind who have support Flotsam - Dark Genie. He is also the final
boss for Dark Cloud 1...

Preparations:-
Max >>
Right-hand weapon - LEGEND Hammer or Grade Zero Wrench
Left-hand weapon - Supernova
Ridepod >>
Nova Cannon IV, Sun and Moon Armor, Triple-Urn Pack, Propeller Leg,
all shield kits equipped.

Item Equipment:
At least 10x Premium Chicken
At least 2x Ridepod Fuel

Rare Photos (not scoops)
--------------------------
In order to use this two photos:-

 Zelmite Found: Take a photo of the blue ore (Zelmite) in boss
                battle background.

 Mr. Big Shot's Shadow: Take a photo of giant Dark Genie

You need to take the photo and save them in album during the battle.
The photos can be accessed into other save files as ideas in other
saved files.

I suggest that you just need to use Max for this battle.

The boss has only 2 attacks and could sent a lot of smaller versions of
Dark Genies to keep you occupied. The minimum dark genies could cause
damage ranging from 50 to 60 hit points of damage and has projectile
weapons like a Himarra. They tends to surround Max/Ridepod. The main
boss, Dark Genie, the huge one is flying in the air can cause a beam
blast that could instantly kill off Max if you are directly underneath
it.

Strategy:
Use Ridepod and shoot your Nova Cannon IV like crazy at the big genie
while playing catching with the small genies. There will come a point
of them when Nova Cannon will deal "No effect". Just switch to Max and
use his charged attack (not for too long or when the boss is just
above you) and quick switch to Ridepod to flee and shoot again with
lock-on. It just like run and gun strategy...
