“	'Now you see us, now you don't!' is a popular Tondenga motto... which, of course, refers to the way they manage to swing their massive clubs (one in each hand!) at whirlwind speeds. Enemy troops cower at the thought of a direct impact. It is rumored that enemies feel complete bliss at first impact... could be the fact that they eternally moved on to a better place.	”
	— Quoted from the official North American Patapon website

DescriptionEdit

If you level Tondenga and Destrobo to level 8, you unlock Myamsar.

Level Tondenga and Taterazay to level 12 to unlock Grenburr.

Tondenga evolves at level 5 and level 20.

EquipmentEdit

Tondenga can use:

• Clubs, Shoulderguards and Shields from unlocking.

• Swords from level 6.

• Axes from level 10.

Uberhero Mode: GiandethEdit

Spin violently with weapons splayed in this dramatic centrifugal attack. Inches forward while deflecting foes.

Activate: PON PON PATA PON

Combo: PON PON PATA PON

When Tondenga goes into Uberhero Mode, he spins round in a circular fashion,

smashing enemies in range with his weapon while inching forward, shouting "Gi-an-Deth!" upon activation. His high attack power renders this attack devastating to the oppositions. This attack knocks back and staggers opponents as well. He is very slow-moving while in Hero Mode, rendering him to more enemy fire, but a powerful Tondenga will absorb enemy fire damage. If Tondenga is equipped with the Set Skill, Natural Disaster, Giandeth will have a greater effect on enemies.

TriviaEdit

• Tondenga uses a shield, unlike in the previous Patapon games, where only Tatepons were able to use them.
• Tondenga's mask starts off as a pinky-orange but, as he levels up, it turns bright neon pink.
• Tondenga is one of the Uberheroes who can equip most of the Set Skills, as he can equip 6 once he has mastered all of his Class Skills. Others are Myamsar and Yarida.
• In the credits, Tondenga is seen without a shield.
• Tondenga is the heaviest Uberhero.
• Advertisements and the game itself constantly refer to Tondenga as being able to swing one weapon in each hand. However, this is impossible, as his other hand is reserved for holding shields.
• When unlocking Tondenga in the multiplayer demo, his mask color and shape are different when you unlock him in the full game.
• Tondenga is shown in all 3 screen shots on the back of the US version UMD case.
• When Tondenga enters Uberhero Mode, a sutile grey aura appears around him.
• If seen closely, Tondenga has a tail just below the body when changing equipment (Doesn't apply on Uberhero).
• Tondenga can be a candidate for the best damage dealer, since high-leveled Tondengas can do up to 999999 damage on one blow like some other Shield Classes.
• Tondenga Uberheroes can complete the first multiplayer challenge without a second player.
• He is one of the classes that only focuses on one type of Class Skills.
• Tondenga can solo all multiplayer dungeons but Heights of Indolence, because of his tremendous HP and sheer strength (especially when he's equipped with the Thor set, see below).
• Tondenga goes great with Thor, Bunny Hood, Crono Riggers, and Alldemonium Shield (the Thor Set. See Equipment Sets). If Tondenga is at a high level (at least lv.32) with these weapons equipped (weapons and armor should have a high level too, most probably at least +14), Tondenga will almost always deal 999999 damage with a 50% damage reduction (when stacked up with Energy Field 50%, Tondenga will have a very high damage resistance), so he can finish extremely difficult missions, such as Depths of Jealousy.
• With Dolmorn Helm (ultimate helm), crono riggers and fireblessed shield, Tondenga is resistant to almost all status effects except feezing.
