| Why is the bounty on the Criminal Catepillar so high? | ||
 |

It was obvious that the caterpillar stole something of value. Could it have been Ness' father?! Of course not, we all know he's living behind the house. However, I do blieve that he is hording many valuable mushrooms found on traveller's heads as well as endless amounts of truffles. Why else would he be worth so much? Lord knows he's selling them to children and the Onnet police force just can't seem to road block him off.
The shrooms could also explain his discoloration. He could just have had one too many and changed color, this also explains the Crested Booka, who, before eating the caterpillar's shrooms looked something like Mr.T. -Ryan |

Since Itoi knows when, the Criminal Caterpillar has been roaming the deserts, getting the snot beat out of it in exchange for a massive EXP reward. But what exactly has gotten everyone in a frenzy over this bounty? The story of the Criminal Caterpillar is a sad one indeed, and when you learn the truth, you may even stop pulleming the poor creature.
When the Caterpillar itself was a wee little larvae, it had been living a life of luxury - caviar, swimmin' pools, movie sta--*AHEM*--well you get the picture. The Caterpillar's parents spoiled the little dickens so much, he had never become self reliant. Until one day. While vacationing in the Dusty Dunes Desert with his family, he ignorantly followed the directions of a spirited, young black sunflower seed. Unfortunately at the time, the sunflower seed was depressed at the tragic break up of him and his lover, the white sunflower seed. So his vision was clouded with thoughts of depression and angst. Long story short, the crappy directions of the black sunflower seed got the Caterpillar separated from his folks. Scared and in a panic, the Caterpillar ran all around the desert at a fantastic speed for years on end, frantically searching for his parents. Soon enough, the Caterpillar was the fastest thing in the desert, though incredibly weak from all those years relying on others, therefore very cowardly at the same time. He eventually came across a piece of gold somewhere in the mines. Remembering how rich his parents were, the shinyness of gold might attract them back to their son. So, filling up a sack with as much gold as he could carry, he scurried all over the various deserts searching for his parents. When he ran out o gold at the mines, he began to steal items from people, such as gold watches or gold bracelets. If someone actually caught up to the Caterpillar, the poor guy wouldn't have a chance! But he knew that somday the gold would lead him back to his parents, so in exchange for a gold item, he would give the victor a buttload of EXP in compensation. And so ends the tragic story of the Caterpillar. It's a shame he's not too bright--all that gold could've bought him a nice vacation home in Summers... -Portgas D. Zoro |

The Criminal Caterpillar is a very patient thief. He and his gang of caterpillars have been stealing things ever since Ness was 5 years old.
Now ya see, you don't notice it, but the buildings of Fourside used to be alot more expanded; they practically reached the tunnel. Come on, a big city likes to use up all of the land possible, and get rid of as much trees that are surronded by grass. (ex. New York) The Criminal Caterpillars fit in because they're extreme liberals. They saw all these buildings, and they went nuts, like most liberalists would. So over the course of roughly 8 years, they stole bits and pieces of Fourside. A sign there, a concrete block from the sidewalk here. Everybody was too busy to notice until it was too late. Countless people were fired for being late, they couldn't make it to work on time because there was no work to go to. So Fourside hit an economic slump; roughly 4 were left unemployed. Most of these people moved to Jackie's Cafe, and the Fourside Police were mad. So they asked any and all citizens of Eagleland to totally get a green swirl on those Caterpillar Fiends, and stop the crime. Fortunately, Ness and Co. totally demolished their plans to steal all of Fourside, and thus he saved the largest town in Eagland. -Crompez |

Criminal Catipillar? No thanks, I already had some dinner.
Oh wait, you mean THE Criminal Catipillar? The one that is involved in that notorious.... oooooh. You haven't heard about it, I take it. And that would also be why this topic was posted. And that would also be why I even bothered to write this. And that would in turn explain this wild and crazy un-theory, which in turn becomes truth to inform all you proto-plasma-moo-moo-cows out there. You lucky bacteria, you. So, to be somewhat slightly maybe brief and not boxers, I happened to stumble upon a large spare waffle tire that yielded unruly results of a bad rug burn, as well as a run in my super hero tights. So, having to stumble faster than those darn tumble weeds who think they own the whole dirt road like they own it, I skidded to a halting stop at the nearest MachPizza and hoped that they could give me some discounts since I called them every day. But alas, they couldn't give me one. At first, they denied that they had given it out already, but I could see through their lies. They had, but they didn't want anyone else to know. The woman who womanned the counter only could give me the phone number I had called so many times and had a creepy smile on her face. It was unnerving, and I wanted to know more. She was unwavering in her social structure. There was something afoot, and it wasn't was was in my shoe, that was for sure. Criminals were at work, and whoever was in charge of it was good at conditioning his underlings. As you sit and ponder my eyewitness account of events, buy a doughnut and chew on the fattening information. Now get a breath mint, because, to be quite honest, just like the rest of the myth busting here, your breath stinks. Ok, so continuing the story, I slipped in a quarter to the machine of life and entered that password. It was time to get the highscore settled and for me to get my name placed on that bathroom door. The Dusty Doon's Desert was the next place to try. It was easy to get to, located near the Dusty Dunes Desert, yet not too full of tourists, except for the babies, who seemed to take up all the room in that box. When I arrived however, there were no babies to be found, save for one. She was a pretty dame, 24 and knowing that she was ready to build a castle to the sky with the sand in that pretty little box of hers. There was something about her, though, as she had a pouty look about her that shot through the smokey atmosphere like an aerosol can in a heat-wave... Walking past her, however, I came to the pay phone and called collect to the nearest Escargo Express and had my bike delivered. To be truthful, I had actually run out of fare to get to the Dusty Dunes Desert and had to stop here. Bummer. The monkeys had no answers for me, neither did that Crested Booka. However, the Hungry Wolf had something that interested me. He gave me information on a missing order he put in to Mach Pizza almost an hour ago, and that some crazy Catipillar had run by him a few seconds later with a wad of EXP in his hands. This was what I needed. And it was all on a Monday. What was I to do? I'll tell you what I was to do. I was to cry like a baby. But crying like a baby was for babies, and I for sure wasn't a baby. So I ate a Skip Sandwhich DX DX and skipped to my lou after my fuzzy fiend. So, after an hour of a crazy chase sequences through various towns and cities, grooving to the cool Sky Runner track, I finally caught up with the Criminal Catipillar near the Sphynx, and we did the hokey pokey and turned it all about before facing eachother down. He drew first however, and I was out of luck, since I had gotten too into my drawing of Poo and lost the round of Pictionary. I submitted myself to FanArt and the Criminal Catipillar became the head master of the Flukes section with his stolen EXP, which lead to immediate downfall of a cheese empire who whorshiped the pie gods of doughnuts. ... And that is the rest of the story. But be sure to eat pie and prosper, and not step on stolen vouchers, as they may lead to happiness in the desert. :) -Gonmon |

What did Criminal Catepillar steal? The hearts and minds of our nation's youth, that's all! How did he manage that, you ask? Well, once upon a time, Criminal Catepillar was Catepillar Steve. Catepillar Steve wsa pretty unremarkable, except for the fact that he was the lead singer for the Catepillar Grunge Polka band "Mr. Saturn's Wild Ride."
HOWEVER, the Runaway Five's Lucky discovered an evil plot by their record producer to backwards mask various messages of evil (such as "Buy more Mr. Saturn's Wild Ride tickets! Kill your parents if they forbid you to!" or "Mach Pizza is your only way of living!") and thusly, the Runaway Five are able to afford such a cool bus, what with gas prices these days and all. But, Criminal Catepillar took the fall for his Evil Record Producer, because he knew it would mean that his buddies in the band would get off scott free and Evil Record Producer would get sacked and sent to judging karaoke contests. -Joe/Twinky |

Catepillars who steal? I know the exact reason why. It has to do with a secret plot by Gigas in the year 197X. Gigas was genetically mutating all sorts of creatures using the new technology of "Microwaves". He would place one of these small creatures in a "Microwave" and let them bask in the radiated light for a certain amount of time every day, for a week. Over time, they began to grow restless, as only the Cows and the Sheep(which eventually mutated into Mooks), managed to gain any superpowers. But, they knew not of the Catepillar that snuck in with one of the Cows one day(he was sleeping on the cow's tail). That catepillar was bestowed sudden SUPER STEALING POWERS. Eventually, Gigas began breeding his army of Stealthy Stealing Catepillars. By the time Ness and the gang appeared in 199X he had enough to use against them in ANY situation he wanted. They could steal......a Holy Frying Pan. Or a.......Big Bottle Rocket. Or the Casey Bat. Most of us just never got lucky enough to face his entire army of Catepillars. And to this day, even the catepillar in your empty mayonaise jar could be plotting to steal everything in your house that is not nailed down.....maybe he is your pet.....maybe your cat's pet......maybe in a neighbor's garden.....They are out there. And they will steal from YOU! -Dark Prophet |

The Criminal Catepillar: Strap yourself in for a long one, I tend to drone on. There are several things one must take into account when trying to find out exactly what it was that "Con"ny (HA! Get it?) the Caterpillar stole.
1.)The Caterpillars location 2.)The fact that the Caterpillar has no items on it when it is defeated. 3.)To place a bounty of EXP this high, the person placing it must have been extremely experienced in the ways of team combat (Being that EXP gets dispursed among a team) 4.)A catepillar is small and hairy, but still noticable, so the victim must have been large and hairy in the facial area (so the thing could blend in) for the robbery to go down. The victim would have to be close to the desert, the catepillar couldn't have gotten far. A catepillar can only carry so much, the object couldnt have been very large.. And the answers are... 1.)Dusty Dunes 2.)It dropped the item somewhere in the desert. 3.)Well, the greatest combat team I know of is the A-Team 4.)Theres only one ex-member of the A-Team in the game who fits the large and hairy faced description, one Mr. T 5.)Threed is to far, so it must be Fourside, or the Saturn Valley. But that'd be weird... And the conclusion... All of the clues coming together the person robbed is obviously Mr.T from Fourside, he's the only one who fits the probable description AND has the team combat experience to dish out that bounty. In the Dusty Dunes there is only one very small object that is found in the middle of the desert, where no sane person would dare go, what with all the animals and heat. Its a contact lens, small enough for a catepillar to carry, and holds no explanation to why its there. This matches with the capepillars size, lack of carried items, and location. And upon bringing the lens to Mr.T it is found that it is infact his. So there you have it, case closed. The answer is: The Criminal Catepillar stole Mr. T's contact lens, but Mr. T does not admit to being robbed. Because he does the foo pitying, not the other way around. -Starfe |
