Why is there not a section of the guide on getting pretend married in the 2nd gen?
I am confused because I am a girl in the 2nd gen and Sera & Serena's "marriage" quest still appears on the board!

=/ We'd need a section on everything! And the fake-marriages are more like friendship ceremonies and are fairly minor events.
If you think of it like a friendship ceremony then their "marriage" quest makes more sense. It's not a glitch, that's just how it is ><

Does anybody know how to find strong vine?

Does anybody know how to find strong vine?

Check Section 6. Spellbooks & Inquisitive Waltz

You need Inquisitive Waltz to find Strong Vine. In the section there are directions on how to obtain/use the Music book.
Once you have it and know how it's used you can find Strong Vine here:
BLESSIA ISLAND

Center (lower left among ore)
South West Beach (lower left corner)

You'll find a full list of item locations in the section.

Let me say thanks soo much for this guide. I found especially the crop and gift guide helpful.


I would like some help please, if someone can give it. It's a bit of an odd problem so if not, that's ok.

Are there some hidden requirements for festivals? I tried seeing Alicia's shooting star festival on two entirely different games, not just files, but games, and I could not get her to accept my invitation to the Shooting Star Festival!

I had her at 10 LP and FP on the first try, and 10FP and 9LP on the second. Now I sort of hibernated a lot, but when she rejected me at first I went back and did as many bulletin board quests as I could in 3 days and she still refused. I had this same problem way back many months ago, and just assumed you couldn't see the festival in gen 1 but...

Now I'm on my fourth try, and my friend was kind enough to hibernate for me on her game and try to see the festival, but on her game she said yes! But on all 3 of my tries she said no, and so..

There must be some hidden requirement. That's all I think of. I mean what are the chances of a glitch happening on two separate games entirely? And on three different files across the two separate games?

Any thoughts? Any hidden requirements you could think of? (All of her quests except the last one, which warps directly into marriage, were done.)

Hmm... that's odd. I had her at 9 friend points and 9 love points and she accepted mine. My friend told me that you need atleast 5 love points to go on a date during the shooting star festival with a girl, so I see that. I suppose it's because it's uneven (meaning you don't have 10 and 10, 9 and 9 etc) I think it's a glitch. But I am just trying my best to help, after all she did accept mine and I had no problem with it, really.

uhhh....
Barrett also likes Salmon Sashimi, Little Crystal and Salted Salmon.
Tanya also likes hammer piece. By the way, she is neutral about wolf fangs.
Dorothy also likes Char Sashimi.
There is no proof Roy likes 90 percent of the stuff listed. He is neutral about cheap cloths and shoulder pieces and etc. The only things listed he likes is Steamed Gyoza and I am assuming pins.
Leann does not hate green pepper... she's in fact neutral about it, so what does she dislike?

Thank you so much for this guide! It's been a huge help!

Edit: I figured I would tell you that I have caught, in addition to the Love Snappers, several Gibeelos in the Sun Dappled Spot.

(Glitches)
-People sometimes call you your son's name & vice versa due to scripting errors
-Natalie's clinic potion appearing as a random "item name" when you get it
-Missing the earthquake cut-scene if you camp, pass out, or sleep at Egan's inn the day before (Ceci's quest)
-Gordon not recognizing his own birthday
-People walking on water/fountains
-Lag in barn/dock/dungeons when there are too many sprites on screen
-Sometimes your monsters' FP will go down when you switch gens (it shouldn't)
-"Dropping" crops when you use the shortcut function to harvest and get hit by a monster
-Villagers sometimes "teleport" from area to area
-Villagers can re-enter buildings repeatedly until the clock turns a specific hour
-The barn sign glitch: When you come out of a dungeon around 4:30 PM and look at the sign next to your barn, your game can freeze.
-Herman "not liking" tomato juice in 2nd gen--probably a scripting error
-Alicia never mentions Julia in her love readings. Some rivalry here, perhaps?
-Cecilia's final quest is only completable if you MARRY her, otherwise it never disappears* or gets recorded on the quest board. Don't let this hinder your hopes at having a "complete" quest board, however.
*All girls' requests will disappear from the board after you marry.
-Queen Bees & Hornets in 2nd gen don't show the basket symbol at all until they have honey to harvest, so don't worry if the grayed-out basket doesn't appear on the barn sign.

If anyone else notices another glitch, please post in this topic so I can add it to the list. Thank you!

a glitch that i found is when u have a monster with you and u try to go in your house, it will say the text that is meant for trying to go in the barn, then when u try to go in the barn it will say the text that is meant for when your trying to go in the house.

I have a question. If I marry someone, say, Dorothy, can I still ask her out to the romantic festivals? Thanks in advance!

No, I married Dorothy and couldn't ask her to the Dance Festival. I was very sad.

FFFF. Well, then, I'm waiting to see all the romantic festivals. ...Though it might kill me.
