Boney

"Woof woof! (I can take you for a walk if you'd like, Lucas.)"

— Boney

Boney is a character in Mother 3. The courageous pet dog of Flint and his family. He originally helps Flint find Wess's son, Duster during the first chapter, but when Lucas grows up he joins the party as a permanent member. Boney can only equip hats, ribbons, and collars, cannot use PSI attacks, and due to having Speed significantly higher than other members of the party, is usually the first to attack in battle. His only weapon, the Canine Weapon, can be found in Chapter 8. As with the main characters, Boney's name can be chosen by the player before the game begins. His Sniff ability allows him to determine the weaknesses of enemies, though it does not work on certain enemies and some bosses.
