Megapon

A Megapon

Megapons are quite possibly the oddest unit in the games. They are taller than other Patapons, and carry around massive horns. They appear to smile, except when you miss a note or when they are running. To attack, they play their horns and launch soundwaves or sonic balls that are projected to take on physical form, flying at the enemy and causing damage. Megapons have a variety of attacks, but the two most utilized are:

  • A wave of 3 blue notes that bounce off of and around the enemy, causing ricochet damage, and
  • A massive red note only used during Fever that pierces and hits multiple times, causing massive damage, and possibly ignite.

They have another attack which is only usable when you use PonChaka~ChakaChaka. These songs create a large yellow or green note, which launches in-front of your Patapons and bounces enemies backwards. A full Megapon squad consists of 3 Megapons, unless played on Patapon 3, in which there is only two, since only Kan and Uberhero can change into Wondabarappa or Jamsch.


Megapon

2 Mogyun Megapons

Unlike most Patapon Units, their name has no Japanese origin, but is instead a pun for "megaphone". When upgraded to Mogyu, Megapon can arguably deal the most damage in Patapon 1 and 2. They can easily hunt most creatures if made as Mogyu, but need to be out of Fever mode to hunt Golden Motiti (Motsitsi), as their forward movement gives them away. Even though Megapon horns include Fire and Ice Horns, the appearance of the songs do not change (so Ice Horns still launch Red Ignite songs in Fever). They are extremely useful when created as a Babassa, Gyogyoppa, Wagyanba or Mogyugyu Rarepon because of the damage and/or critical ratio.

Babassa is recommended because there is a medium chance to inflict 9999 damage to a boss with this build:

Note: If using Mogyugyu, use Rabasarana Mask (obtained from Zuttankarmen Egg battle). But chances for a 9999 damage is lower.

souls of enemies. Their flute music drifts on the wind to defeat crowds of enemies at once. They have low HP so are easy to wound fatally, but you can render enemies completely powerless by using Megapons for ground control.

Acquisition[]

Patapon[]

Ciokina must be defeated to obtain Megapon's Memory.

Patapon 2[]

Megapon lv 1-4 5-9 10

Megapons (from left to right) lv. 1-4, 5-9 & lv. 10

To unlock the Megapon in the new evolution map, you have to evolve a Yumipon into a Menyokki. It is harder than Dekapons and Kibapons, as you must evolve the Yumipon into Pyopyo and then Buhyokko before the option to evolve into a Menyokki is avaliable. Created with vegetables and wood. Later you will need Liquids and Alloys.

Patapon 3[]

In Patapon 3, Megapon comes as two classes: Wondabarappa and Jamsch.

To unlock Wondabarappa, you need to level Yumiyacha to level 3. To unlock Jamsch, you need to level Oohoroc and Wondabarappa to level 10.

Abilities[]

PonPon[]

Shoots a volley of three blue notes in varying arcs, bouncing off of and around the enemy. While in Fever Mode, Megapons will blow out a flaming red note that pierces through targets. This attack deals fire-type damage regardless of the element of the horn equipped, and therefore fire-relevant conditions apply (e.g., can ignite targets, cannot deal any damage to Motsitsis).

In Patapon 3, Megapons will instead shoot bouncing sound waves in a more consistent trajectory. In Fever Mode, they will fire more sound waves for the duration of the command.

ChakaChaka[]

Sprays a volley of three blue notes in a steeper arc. This can be used to hit close-ranged enemies as the notes go vertical rather than flying outward. In Patapon 3, Megapons will still release sound waves to defend.

Wondabarappa

PonChaka[]

In Patapon and Patapon 2, Megapons will blow out three blue notes in a low arc if there is an enemy close by.

PonChaka~PonPon[]

Releases a flaming red note with increased damage. Executing this command outside of Fever Mode will cause Megapons to blow out a flaming red note instead of three blue notes.

In Patapon 3, Wondabarappa will blow out a piercing bladed soundwave which pierces through anything in its trajectory and ignores wind conditions, while Jamsch will release a fiery sonic ball that crawls on the ground, or an icy sonic ball if he equips an Ice Horn.

PonChaka~ChakaChaka[]

In Patapon and Patapon 2, performing this command will make Megapons release a green note that sits vertically on the ground for a few seconds, knocking back enemies hit.

Hero Mode[]

Patapon 2[]

Icicles of Death[]

Hero shoots out three blue notes that freezes any enemies if it hits. This is very useful against bosses like Cioking, Ciokina and Fenicchi. The projectiles are visually identical to the normal blue notes shot by Megapons.

these are fired when Wondabarappa decreases his attack speed, so the damage dealt adds up quickly, good for ground attacks. Most long horns fire at a slower rate, but they have more power. This is however, weak when hitting Towers, Doors, etc, because Sound is not effective against structures.

Airborne Threat (Jamsch)[]

Jamsch produces a green cloud of poison spores that drift around and damage nearby enemies. These spores can inflict many status effects, but most often cause Sleep and Poison, depending on the horn/twinhorn he equips. Poison spores however do not inflict Critical hits even with high criticals. Spores are affected by the wind direction, so a tailwind will cause them to travel forward. Without tailwind, his Hero Mode is quite useless. Very useful with attack speed at 0.50 or less. And Very Useful against tree enemy like Matango, Treants, and Boss like Shooshookle

  • Though Megapons are one of the oddest Patapons, they are referred to as "handsome" by the Patapon tribe.
