Edition covered
Original Game Boy Advance adventure. The 3DS remake, Minion Quest and its altered battle balance are excluded.
Four bean types support seven drinks
Woo, Hoo, Chuckle and Hee Beans have separate sources and are not interchangeable. Dig bean holes and inspect blocks before assuming a missing recipe requires more battles.
| Blend | Beans | Stat increase |
|---|---|---|
| Woohoo Blend | 25 Woo | HP +4 |
| Hoohoo Blend | 25 Hoo | BP +4 |
| Chuckle Blend | 25 Chuckle | Speed +4 |
| Teehee Blend | 25 Hee | Stache +4 |
| Hoolumbian | 15 Woo + 10 Hoo | Power +4 |
| Chuckoccino | 15 Woo + 10 Chuckle | Defense +4 |
| Teeheespresso | 15 Woo + 10 Hee | Random stat +6 |
Drinks permanently raise a statistic
Choose the brother who benefits before consuming a blend. The basic drinks raise one stat by four, while Teeheespresso adds six to a randomly chosen stat.
| Different blends made | Reward | Collection cue |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Greed Wallet | First Cafe reward |
| 2 | Bonus Ring | Keep recording new recipes |
| 3 | Excite Spring | Third distinct blend |
| 4 | Great Force | Powerful effect with a tradeoff |
| 5 | Power Grip | Fifth distinct blend |
| 6 | Cobalt Necktie | Sixth distinct blend |
| 7 | Game Boy Horror SP | Complete all seven recipes |
New blends trigger equipment rewards
E. Gadd’s rewards progress as different blends are prepared. Brewing the same familiar drink repeatedly does not replace completing the recipe collection.
Read badge effects alongside defense
A badge may support attack power or special-attack use rather than simply raising defense. Compare equipment effects to your actual battle habits before selling an older item.
