The Minchs: The real reason good prevailed
After the player has said his final prayer, Giygas has come crashing down ,and the souls of our heroes returned to their not so shiny bodies, did you ever stop to wonder, what if I would have lost? Well you wouldn't have. As long as the right-hand man of the embodiment of evil is Pokey Minch. Honestly, you would think that the greatest of all evils could have possibly found a better accomplice in debauchery than Pokey. Let us look into the attempted evil character known as Pokey, and discover where his true faults lie.
Pokey is hardly a candidate for evil villain side-kick of the year. (Those honors must go to Stiney) He is an overweight blob who cannot exert himself in physical activity. He doesn't have the greatest intellect of any henchman. Perhaps the greatest of his problems, his personal hygiene is equal to that of a donkey with rabies that has just rolled in his own fecal matter. Now, I'm not usually someone to place the blame onto others, like those experts who say video games make kids violent; HEY I HIT THAT KID WITH A BAT BECAUSE HE DESERVED IT AND IT WAS THE NEAREST HARD THING TO ME,.........but I digress. The problems of this poor child should be put squarely on the shoulders of his parents.
Yes the Minchs. If you were too look up lazy parenting in the dictionary, you would be stupid because that is a phrase and not a word. Try a thesaurus, there maybe you could find a picture of them. If they would have only paid a little more attention to his schooling, showed him the value of a healthy diet and exercise, and taken a bar of soap to that stanky child he would have come out to be a better more evil person. But come to think of it, is it such a bad thing that they didn't?
A more intelligent, fit, and cleanly....to some extent, Pokey might have proven to be more of a hassle to deal with than the ogreish slob of reality. If the boy would have been all the things he is not Ness and his companions may not have stood a chance against the master of all evil. So as inadvertendly as it is, the poor parenting of the Minchs saved the entire universe from destruction. We all owe them a debt of gratitude. Lets all hope that one day, they get all that money back that they are owed. Nah, scratch that last part.
