Rice Balls and AF
*** Tonosama Rice Balls (and Shogun Rice Balls if you have the cash) have extra effects if you're wearing your AF gloves, the Myochin Kote. For this reason, rice balls are usually the best food when you're wearing these gloves. These effects are in addition to the effects listed above.
| Food | Additional Effect with Myochin Kote |
|---|---|
| Tonosama Rice Ball | Attack +50; Defense +30; Double Attack +1 |
| Shogun Rice Ball | Attack +50; Defense +30; Double Attack +5 |
