Items: (i've made a few mistakes here, so I'll fix them here and edit the OP)
Sound Manipulation (
Stag Beetle): Descrpition reads: "
By throwing this at the enemy during battle, the enemy is shocked and stops moving. Gone after one use." In the
Mother 3, this name is given to the
Siren Beetle, which is a part of
Duster arsenal. The description reads: "
Makes enemies turn around due to a deafening noise."
(Fixed a few stuff here, my apologize) Resistance to: Fire Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, OHKO, Status Effects Inducement (Paralysis, Confusion, Empathic Manipulation, and Sleep Manipulation) via
Pendants and Bracelet: The
Star Pendant " Provides protection from Fire, Freeze, Flash and Paralysis." PK Flash including OHK, paralysis, confusion,
and crying uncontrollably. The
Goddess_Band grants resistance to Hypnosis "
Must be equipped on your arm. It increases your Defense. Helps keep you from being hypnotized, and it also increases your Luck."
Teddy Bear: Fairly simple, a really
stuffed plush bear that receives most of the hits from enemies in battle to reduce the amount of damage Ness's party takes, until it becomes a pile of fluff.
Shield Snatcher: Another mistake in my part, other party members are able to equip it. Not just Boney.
Resistance to Fire Manipulation, Electricity Manipulaton, Ice Manipulaton, OHK, Status Effect Inducement (Paralysis, Confusion, Uncontrollably crying, Sleep Manipulation, and Poison), and healing (brings back health every turn.) with special clothing, bracelets and Pendants (for the protagonists): The
Thud Charm resist
all status effect inducement "Increases protection from all status ailments.". Electricity resistance thanks to the
Thunder Pendant.
Here, The Knit sweater is able to restore some HP each turn.
Ya like Jazz?: As others said, it's just covering an enemy in honey, causing a swarm of bees to attack.
The Truth of the Universe: I'll try to make things simple for others. Like what SuperBearNeo X said, despite being rather vague and ambiguous, it's
very similar to that of
The Gentle Pull so it could apply as a profile. Since we know that it was a force controlling what happens in the universe, and a supreme deity.
- "
The truth of the universe travels the cosmos like a grain and like a wave and speaks to the universes known as man. Your coming here, my waiting here… It was all predestined truth. Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo… When these four forces meet, the twisting cosmos will breathe calmly once more."
Refering to it as both a grain and a wave refers to it being both small and tiny and vast and all encompassing at the same time, that is all leading to
Omnipresence. We have seen it
communicating with Ness, and
with Lucas. Intrestingly, the "speaks to the universes as man" part is most certainly connected to
Magicant. Which not only backs Magicant being a universe, but implies that there are more than one (Not gonna try anything with that tho, but of course, there is also Maria's magicant).
"The Sea of Eden is filled with ultimate intelligence. It's a place where you can touch the truth of the universe for just an instant."
So the Truth of the Universe is something that can be reached in Magicant, the universe that exists inside Ness. It's by going to the Sea of Eden that Ness fights his evil self (or Giygas Influence) that he achieves great power, so the Truth of the Universe likely has something to do with this as what was said above. Already, in Ness's profile, said that the truth of the universe was described to be both space and time.
Now, when you speak to that one
Rock that told Ness he will be become one with the Universe, but apparently he and his friends are part of a "universal system": "At last, you speak to me.
Listen well, Ness. I am about to tell you something so important that you should probably write this down.
Ready? You are a chosen one. Your destiny is not yours alone… It is part of a universal "system". The time will come when every part of you will become one (note: or overlap) with every part of the universe.
you need not understand right now.
Do you remember "Giant Step" back in Onett? That was one of "Your Places"
These are spots that give you power and draw out "every part" of you.
They are protected by monsters affected by that power. However, you obviously must have defeated them.
Once you've stood at all eight of these power spots in the world…
Once the Sound Stone has recorded the melodies of all the power spots, you will see "Your World" for the very first time."
"You must listen to the sounds of all eight power spots.
Defeating Gyiyg without doing so will be impossible.
Do you understand, Ness?
The moment when your destiny becomes one with the destiny of the universe… is close at hand."
He and his friends destiny are part of a "universal system". Being able to meet up and overcome many obstacles that
otherwise seems impossible and that Ness was able to achieve such power to confront Giygas. Chosen Ones are part of this Universal System, which this system choses when the universe is in need. The reference to "chosen ones" in Mother 3 implies that this universal system chose Lucas & Claus to pull the Seven Needles, but Porky corrupted Claus to his own ends.
"
It says only those with the power of PK Love can pull the seven Needles. Not even we Magypsies have that ability. In other words, you're able to pull the Needles because you're a chosen boy. " (Taken from
here)
"
. . Lucas It seems you're a chosen one, with the ability to pull the Needles sealing the Dragon away. You MUST pull the Dark Dragon's Needle with your own hands, and pass your heart on to the Dragon.- Leder"
TLDR:
-The "universal system" is destiny that the Truth of the universe controls.
- Can use Telepathy and has shown indication of Omnipresence
- It speaks to the universes (Magicant) that apperantly lies in people (as shown with Ness's Magicant. He
reached his full power and merged with the Universe by touching the Truth in his Magicant)
- Chosen ones include Ness, Paula, Jeff, Poo, Lucas & Claus
I've linked this a lot, but the heroes were able to achieve
victory in two timelines. It was already said in the beginning in the game by
Buzz Buzz that they lost in one timeline to Giygas. These is indication to different timelines existing within the Earthbound multiverse.

I've asked a few staff members to give their inputs.
