Attacks [ ]

Soul modes [ ].

Mettaton uses the Red Soul during the quiz show and beginning the battle after the Multicolor Tile Puzzle , and the Yellow Soul in all other circumstances.

Patterns [ ]

Mettaton [ ].

• During the quiz show, if the protagonist answers incorrectly, Mettaton fires an unavoidable laser that halves the protagonist's HP.
• After the tile puzzle, if the protagonist does not press ACT → "Yellow" right away, Mettaton drops boxes from above in a set pattern, with gaps in between.

Mettaton EX [ ]

Mettaton EX's attacks all consist of an arrangement of several objects:

• Copies of Mettaton's legs stick out from either side of the box and scroll downwards. They can be either moving inwards and outwards or not move; this can be controlled by shooting them, which stops the moving legs or causes the motionless legs to begin moving again.
• Copies of Mettaton's legs quickly emerge from the side of the screen. An exclamation mark will appear in the area that they will appear in before this attack is used.
• This attack is also used by Alphys as a Lost Soul during the Asriel boss fight in the True Pacifist run.
• Bombs marked with a plus sign travel downwards, which explode into lasers of a similar formation when shot with the yellow soul.
• White squares marked with black circles travel downwards (and sometimes side to side), which are broken by a shot from the yellow soul.
• Spaced outlines of bombs and white squares with black circles travel downward, which will eventually reverse direction.
• Long segmented arms resembling Mettaton's travel downwards, with sliding orange-yellow boxes along their length which, when shot, cause the arms to retract.
• Mettaton's heart emerges from the square on his waist and shoots lightning-bolt shaped projectiles either in a circular blast formation or single linear shots (which only happens when he loses all of his limbs). Firing at his heart will end Mettaton's attack earlier; not shooting his heart will still cause his limbs to fall off due to being a scripted event. Contrary to popular belief, attacking Mettaton's heart this way does not count as FIGHTing him.
• A disco ball appearing from the top of the square projects laser beams in either blue or white, which can be toggled in color by shooting the disco ball. They rotate at a variable pace.
• Plain white squares move downwards. These can only be destroyed by a bomb.

Mettaton NEO [ ]

Mettaton NEO uses no attacks.

Strategy [ ]

Neutral/pacifist route [ ], mettaton quiz show [ ].

Alphys is present during this battle and uses her hands to shape the correct answer's letter. If Alphys does not provide an answer, it means any will do. Answering any questions wrong will cause Mettaton to halve the protagonist's HP. Attempting to hurt Mettaton in this form will not work; the screen will always display "Miss."

To defeat Mettaton EX without killing him, one must survive until his arms and legs are blown off and achieve a show rating of 10,000 or more; if his limbs are not blown off, a show rating of 12,000 or more will end the battle. [1] While the protagonist waits without acting, the ratings will go down. The ratings will stay at 3,001 at the minimum until the protagonist does something. Mettaton's limbs fall off regardless of whether or not his heart is shot, but shooting it will end his turn earlier. Ratings can be boosted in several ways:

• Getting hit gives a violence boost of 10 to 50 points.
• Shooting anything during Mettaton's turn.
• Using the FIGHT option to directly harm Mettaton will result in him either biting his lip or sticking his tongue out while saying "Yeah," giving an Action boost of 300 points. Further attacks will cause him to grin visibly but give fewer Action Points.
• Eating food sold by Burgerpants will give 300-500 rating points, but the Steak in the Shape of Mettaton's Face will give 700 points instead. Eating Junk Food gives the 'Eating garbage?!' penalty of 50 points. All other consumables have no effect.
• Equipping a different piece of armor will give 1,500 points as long that piece has not been worn previously during the fight.
• Using the Stick will cause it to be thrown at Mettaton. He will catch it in his mouth and ratings will boost by 700 points. Repeating this action will give 1 point. Using the stick after Mettaton has lost his arms and legs will instead give 1,400 points.
• Using the Boast action will cause ratings to shoot up during Mettaton's turn, but taking damage will cost 100 points and stop the rating spike.
• Using the Pose action will give 100-1000 points, inversely proportional to the amount of health the protagonist has left.
• Using the Heel Turn action will increase the aforementioned violence boost to 100 points. This is more of a risk as it requires the protagonist to get hit.
• Writing "LEGS" earns 350 points, which is the highest amount, being the 'correct answer.'
• Writing "TOBY" earns 300 points, Mettaton saying that Toby sounds sexy.
• Writing "DANCING" earns 250 points, Mettaton saying that he is self-taught.
• Writing "ARMS" will earn 250 points, Mettaton commenting most people talk about his legs, but embrace them for their writing anyways.
• Writing "VOICE" earns 200 points, Mettaton commenting that he has the voice of a siren.
• Writing "HAIR" earns 200 points, Mettaton saying that he uses metal hair gel.
• Writing certain words like "fabulous," "beautiful," "radiant," and "personality" make Mettaton comment on them.
• Writing nothing earns 80 points. Mettaton is not surprised that the protagonist is speechless.
• Writing any swear word results in the loss of 150 points, which causes Mettaton to exclaim that the show is family-friendly.
• Writing a word that Mettaton deems insulting will prompt him to tell the protagonist that this is an essay about him, not them.
• Writing a lot of random gibberish and letters with no sense will result in Mettaton being impressed that the protagonist wrote so much about him, even though he does not understand what they said.

If Mettaton EX is spared, he will appear only as his torso and head when the game returns to the overworld view. This will happen even if the protagonist ends the fight before his limbs fall off. However, if he is killed, he will appear in his original box form in the overworld view, but busted up.

For those who plan on killing Mettaton, methods that decrease ratings should be used, as the ratings may hit 10,000 before the protagonist kills Mettaton. Methods that decrease ratings include writing a curse word during the essay and eating Junk Food, so bringing a full inventory of Junk Food is advised. Waiting between turns also will steadily decrease ratings. However, it will stop decreasing after a certain point.

Genocide Route [ ]

Despite claiming to be a human eradicator, Mettaton NEO does absolutely nothing. Any non-missing attack will instantly kill him as he is scripted to take between 900,000 and 999,999 damage, no matter the strength of the attack. There is no way to spare Mettaton NEO, meaning that the point at which a Genocide Route cannot be aborted occurs before fighting him when the last random encounter is killed.

Contrary to popular belief, a weak attack does not revert to the Neutral Route. Only failing to depopulate Hotland and the CORE completely will cause the game to revert to the Neutral Route.

Undertale Writing Prompts

@ underprompts

I have an au where everyone is swapped around, yes- but it's different. It's confusing. Anyway, Asgore and Sans are best friends/boyfriends in the au- can you make a fluff prompt for that? Thanks

It's a beautiful day outside! Asgore decides it's a perfect opportunity to teach Sans a thing or two about gardening. After all, what's better than sharing your passions with the people you love?

Asgore and Sans have found themselves cooped up in Snowden during a blizzard. Time to snuggle up and find ways to pass the time together!

what's your favorite undertale character?

Omg! I didn't even see this in my inbox! Sorry for the late response lol

My favorite character is Flowey/Asriel, hands down. I love his character arch! (my cat is named Asriel lol) I'm super excited for him to come home in Deltarune! I want to see my boy all grown up 😭

Asgore prepares to fight the next human.

A big snowstorm is heading to town! It's time to bundle up and find ways to pass the time!

Flowey/Asriel experiences fireworks for the first time, but all he can hear are the gunshots from all those years ago.

Your favorite character tries to keep up with their New Year's resolutions.

It's Gyftmas! Time for Asgore to don his Santa Suit and treat the Underground to some much needed joy.

The monsters' first Gyftmas on the surface!

A universe where Chara and Asriel decide against the buttercup plan and actually get a chance to grow up.

Chara finds a certain monster prince on the surface. Despite growing up with stories about evil creatures under the mountain, they choose to help him.

Your favorite character gets a pet.

Mettaton throws a party and everyone's invited!

Humans, Monsters, Flowers. The Dreemurr family sure was strange.

Toriel travels through Home one last time before leaving the Underground.

Most people wouldn't forgive him for stealing their souls. But Papyrus wasn't most people.

It's Halloween and your favorite character and company go trick-or-treating!

Everyone gets together to carve some pumpkins! What could possibly go wrong?

In which Papyrus doesn't hold back.

Your favorite character goes to The Capital. (Or, a glimpse into an area of the Underground we hardly see.)

Toriel and company go grocery shopping on the surface.

Originally posted by Michelozzo : I honestly typed 'You are a butt' and just got the neutral bonus for writing something. At first I literally just smashed my keyboard for random non z or x letters and still go it. I think as long as you don't type profanity you're gold.

Originally posted by StriderVM : My apologies, it seems that your case it quite unique. I suggest posting in the bugs thread. Also the Z and X characters cannot be used in the essay.

Undertale Walkthrough, Part Four: Hotland Guide

• Vulkins. These well-meaning volcano dudes will pelt you with fireballs from the sides, easy to dodge if you remain in the middle, and chains of lightning bolts which are more easily avoided if you remain near the corners of the box. Criticize the Vulkin to stop it from attacking, then Hug it, then go for the Spare.
• Tsunderplanes. Wig-wearing, proud creatures with a secret love of humans, Tsunderplanes attack by sending jets into your box vertically and launching fireballs horizontally. Not too bad to dodge. They can also launch bombs from above, but these don’t show up until later in the fight. Tsunderplanes must first be Approached several times; doing this will cause the silhouettes of the planes in the box to appear as green. Touch these auras until the Tsunderplane is shy. Then you can Flirt with it, and, after, Spare the Tsunderplane. Huh.
• Pyropes. Yep, it’s a rope with fire on top. Pyropes like to send ropes with fire betwixt ‘em your way; weave into the flames to avoid damage. They’ll also lob bombs, which you can avoid just by getting on the opposite side of the box. Pyropes can be satisfied by Heating Up twice, then Sparing ‘em.
• R1: Entrance
• R2: Next destination
• L1: Takes you back to the intersection outside the Lab, near the beginning of Hotland
• L2: Not yet accessible
• Madjicks. These wily dudes will hurl crosses at you. Not too deadly, but they get bad if you choose the wrong Actions and get confused. Stare at both of the Madjick’s orbs, one at a time, to convince the beast that you’re a wizard. Spare follows.
• Knight Knights. Mighty, armoured warriors, Knight Knights will send out massive spreads of bullets, but so long as you only focus on the immediate area around you the bullets aren’t that difficult to avoid. Sing to the Knight Knight until it’s asleep to get your Spare.
• Whimsalots. They like butterflies. Not too difficult, though tricky in conjunction with other enemies. Console and Pray to get a Spare. After Consoling, some of Whimsalot’s attacks will heal instead.
• Final Froggits. Advanced versions of Froggits; they also like to jump and spew flies, but in a more dangerous manner. Still, meh. Mystify and Spare.
• Antistigmatisms. These horrid bullies hurl circular obstacles in your way, but aren’t a huge deal unless they’re attacking with other enemies. Don’t Pick On, then Pick On, to get the Spare option.
• If you go east one screen and two north you’ll find a trash can containing 100 gold .
• Go one screen west, one north, and one more west to find a puzzle. Yep, the usual. Move the blocks into the side niches until there’s only one left in the middle to finish it up. If you complete the puzzle you’ll unlock a path to the east.
• Continue north at the intersection from the puzzle and you’ll find a trash can containing a Glamburger .
• Go north until you find a bridge. Here you can fight three battles to reach a switch that will also open the path in the east. You don’t need to do this and the puzzle. (Though if you want experience…)
• He’ll send giant legs down towards you. Shoot them to make them move out of the way.
• He’ll drop small versions of his boxy form towards you. Blow them up, as they’ll launch hearts at you en masse if they get too far down the screen.
• He'll pull out a disco ball that sweeps lasers across you. The starting lasers will be blue, but they'll start turning white as the ball rotates. Shoot the ball to change the colour of the lasers to blue whenever you're about to get hit by a white one. So long as you don't move a muscle, you should be perfectly safe.
• He’ll drop lines of boxes and bombs at you. Shoot the boxes and weave around the bombs. If you do attack the bombs, be sure to move out of their vertical blast radius immediately. Sometimes he’ll reverse these lines and bring them back up at you, so be ready to dodge from the bottom-up.
• He’ll release the heart on his belt and use it to spew projectiles down at you. Stay low and fire upward at the heart to end the attack.

What did you type on Mettaton (ex)'s essay?

And what did he reply?

• Reply To Topic

PsiRockingOMeta

I typed “i’m cool”. Then he said “you deserve a gold star”, lol

Posted over 8 years ago (edited over 8 years ago )

The first time, I typed something like, “I love Mettaton’s hair, it’s so shiny and stylish” and I got a big bonus for that. And Mettaton told me what products he used on his hair.

Then when I died, I said Mettaton had really good legs, and I got an even bigger bonus...! He said something like, "That's the correct answer!"

Posted over 8 years ago

VERY COOL AND POPULAR

I typed in “everything”. He liked it.

Myzma Totes a Spy~

I typed “ur legs are so fine.” He seemed to enjoy it.

SleuthMechanism

i was caught off guard and only managed to type “the” in time the first time he praised the brevity. second time i typed “the legs”

I didn’t type anything due to a mix of being confused and being watched by a friend (who had already beaten it) and was to nervous to produce an answer.

If you type toby she responds with: Who is this guy… If you type a curse word she responds: we are talking about me, not you. Dat comeback doa!

Supah Star Warrior

My space key didn’t work when writing the essay. Was that a glitch, or…?

What is dad?

Coolgamerz: If you type toby she responds with: Who is this guy… If you type a curse word she responds: we are talking about me, not you. Dat comeback doa!

Mettaton EX is a guy, I’m pretty sure.

I think I simply told him he was pretty. Then I told him “everything.”

Anything involving his legs seems to give the best bonus, it looks like.

WastelandCoyote Jocknerd

The first time I typed “nothing, he sucks and is terrible” and I got some points for brevity.

The second time I just mashed the keyboard a bunch and got more points for typing lots, even thought it was all gibberish.

The third time I didn’t have to type anything, because I finished the fight in one round… >;D

I wrote “his silky smooth voice”

Can’t remember what bonus I got

The first time I did something along the lines of “asdfadfasdgasdfdfasdffadsf”. He liked it. The second time, I went full Alphys-talking-about-mew-mew-kissy-cutie style on him. He only read the legs part. There was no third time. On my most recent time, I just said “u hav a hot butt”. I don’t actually remember what he thought of that. I love Mettaton.

roytheshort

I typed “gaster” and nothing interesting happened.

I meant to type something but the act of that turn was genuinely surprising to me that it actually left me speechless before I could react.

All I typed, plain and simple was “Agh” only with WAY more A’s, g’s, and h’s… … … …He liked it…

On my third run, I wrote BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD . He didn’t seem to get the implication. Maybe because monsters aren’t made of that?

I, too, would like a donut.

I typed “Nothing”, “Not a thing”, and “No”, because I kept dying. The fourth time, I didn’t type anything, and he said something like “Speechless? I don’t blame you.” (can’t remember word for word)

I also tried pressing “g” a million times, and found that the text left the text box.

earthbound4ever

I’m pretty sure I threw out every fake curse word I could think of. Apparently you lose points if you swear at him so I’m glad the game didn’t pick up anything as a swear.

AffableGiraffe

i was super flustered so i just typed “i love your legs and your hair and arms and everything sfjldsfjklaf” obv. high points for legs, he loved it.

I never, ever swear, but I did this time, and I got the penalty for it. lol

CoolSkeleton95

There’s really no need to bump your own topic without adding anything of significance when the last post wasn’t even a day ago. Be patient!

I tried typing I love that he is a ghost and then tried don't you remember Blooky but he didn’t react to either of those!

On my Soulless Pacifist run yesterday, first time I typed in “his hair” and he told me the brand he uses, and the second time I typed in “nothing” and he gave me the same response as I got for “everything”.

What an understanding guy.

I simply typed “Mettaton” He rather liked it.

No way! I just tried “his personality” and he said “Yes, my personality is quite charming, isn’t it?” Hah!

So far, it seems like things that give a special reaction are: hair, legs, personality, everything/nothing, swearing, toby…

I wrote a couple of lines including the fact that Mettaton was pretty, and I believe he agreed that he was attractive.

I told him he was very pretty and he responded, “Thank you, I do look nice, don’t I?”

I also mashed gibberish and he gave me a high score for it even though he said he couldn’t understand any of it.

TigerStripes

I typed in “i like your legs mettaton” because his legs are so fab.

I didn’t type anything and he seemed happy that I was speechless. I don’t remember if there was any bonus to that but I thought it was funny.

i was in the middle of a skeleton pun and he cut me off.

PSI fangirl Reminder: Don't double post!

First time I said “You’re hot.” and he responded with “You’re right. I look quite nice, don’t I?”

Second time I said “Why do you want me dead?” He gave me a gold star.

I just got to him and I haven’t beat him yet so here are my other ideas:

“Nothing.” “Nice legs” “Stop” “Why are you trying to kill a child” (if I have enough time to type that) (no typing) “Everything.” “die” “I wanna be your friend”

electroheartx

The first time I typed in how frustrated I was with him. He gave me sass. Every subsequent time (there were many deaths) I just mashed the keys angrily until I filled up the text box and got a response about writing a book, haha

Operatic Sheep

Bad phone pics because I forgot the print screen button existed…

That time limit, though. I honestly don’t know what I was going for after s! I think I was going to write stupid, but I guess I didn’t think that far…

DragonRaiderX9

I typed in “Destruction Glaive”. He seemed to like it.

SCP173official

HMMM i wander if he recognizes racial slurs…….

I mentioned homosexuality and he seemed to be a big fan

Oh cool. im gonna try calling him the N word next time i go against him.

Flip a Dip Dip

I said “He’s so handsome!” and he replied “I do look quite nice!”

Gemini Duality I'm just a bottle of sunshine and rainbows with a metric ton of snark

I typed spammed x and z because I thought it said to press x and z. I was speechless.

Permanent Reggie

When I did this fight, I was playing with a controller. The keyboard was across the room. I had only one letter I could type without ending it.

CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

clear off the side of the screen for who knows how many characters

I really wonder what “future use” Mettaton might have for that.

Usually just “mettaton is cool”, though I’ve heard he especially likes it when you say he’s a good dancer.

This is a bit of a confession. I typed out “I hate you I hate you I hate you” etc until the time ran out. During my first game I honestly thought he was worse than Flowey. At least Flowey backed off after some intimidation from Toriel, but Mettaton was maliciously persistent in his attempts to kill me. And not for the sake of others like Undyne. An evil killing machine.

He was impressed with the length of my essay.

I was kind of indifferent with mettaton until the end. He was just a malfunctioning robot. If I was going to be upset with anyone, it would be Alphys, but she was helping me and I let it slide. Until I found out the truth, and was just directly angry at Alphys. Using both of us as tools for her own goals. She’s a rather messed up person, though I did soften up to her when I spent more time with her.

I was never really mad at him. In fact I feel bad that he’s missing from some group shots. He’s like the Zoidberg of the group. You only see a leg of him when all your friends get together before the boss fight in the pacifist ending, and he’s not in the group photograph you see if you don’t stay with Toriel.

The Dracula Spectacula

HALP MEH ;-;

I tried to type but it didnt let me

Posted almost 8 years ago

I was trying to beat him before round three, so i looked up what i could type for the best bonuses. I misunderstood. I thought each trigger word got the points, so i spammed all of the words i knew.

“Toby’s beautiful leg hair”

Unfortunately, i didn’t get any bonus points for that.

Zoogrrl: “Toby’s beautiful leg hair”

If you type “Gaster” during the essay portion of the Mettaton EX fight, it just gives you a generic answer. Personally, I think this was a huge missed opportunity to do something cool. So allow me to offer a couple alternatives.

Scenario 1- typing “Gaster” causes Mettaton to have a logic error and prematurely ends the fight.

Scenario 2- typing “Gaster” gives +666 ratings along with a standard response.

Scenario 3- typing “Gaster” gives -666 ratings and Mettaton glitches out and says “You know it’s rude to talk about someone who’s listening.”

Nah, there's a difference between trying to name the first fallen human after him and just mentioning him in an essay. If the followers can say his name without anything funky going on then I don't see why anything should happen here.

Well, personally, I think that Scenario 1 should be out of the question because people will do that so they don't have to fight Mettaton EX.

I like number 3 the most. Number 1 would be used to bypass the fight so it would not be good

I don't think this was a missed opportunity, but rather Toby believing that it wasn't a necessary inclusion at all, and that the name Gaster should be ignored in order to be hidden. Like Ghilsh said, there's a difference between typing this name on the menu naming prompt and at Mettaton's essay.

Also, I believe all three scenarios are unlikely.

As already stated before, this one would just be used for players who don't want to fight Mettaton EX, so I doubt Toby would do that.

Why should a much higher amount of ratings be included for something that is not even related to Mettaton or his premiere? The highest amounts of ratings are gained by complimenting him, so I see no point on that either.

Mettaton would surely not reiterate a phrase that is said by one of Gaster's Followers, as he doesn't even show proof that he ever knew who Gaster was. If anything, only a small glitch-out would do, but as I said, Toby probably never intended to include Gaster as a turning point for the essay at all.

I think that typing GASTER would cause the game to crash and when you reopen it you are back in the fight with MTT, but your ratings go up 666 because of (ERR)

I already talked about how this wouldn't happen, right in the comment above yours, but OK.

It would be cool tho. I agree that it would make no canonical sense tho.

Maybe Sans or Alphys would tell you that name reminded them of something?...

Actually they'd probably full on know who he is since, unlike what the community would have you believe, Gaster was never actually forgotten .

What do you think?
