Boney's first appearance is in [[Chapter 1]], before [[Flint]] goes inside of [[Sunshine Forest]] to search for his family. He decides to take Boney along with him, who fights alongside him in battles. Boney is later used as a messenger of sorts, when [[Wess]] ties a yellow ribbon around his neck and is told to go find [[Duster]]. The yellow ribbon is a special message of sorts, and Wess is positive that Duster will know what it means. He successfully finds him, asleep in his house, although Boney ends up having to drag Duster along the ground for half of the trip before he wakes up.

Boney's first appearance is in Chapter 1, before [[Flint]] goes inside of [[Sunshine Forest]] to search for his family. He decides to take Boney along with him, who fights alongside him in battles. Reaching a dead end at [[Mt. Oriander]], Boney is used as a messenger of sorts, when [[Wess]] ties a yellow ribbon around his neck and is told to go find [[Duster]]. The yellow ribbon is a special message of sorts, and Wess is positive that Duster will know what it means. He successfully finds him, asleep in his house, although Boney ends up having to drag Duster along the ground for half of the trip before he wakes up. Duster, using his [[Thief Tools]], allows the party to scale the cliff, where Flint, Boney, and Duster find the [[Pigmask Army]] tampering with a [[Reconstructed Caribou|caribou]]. After defeating the caribou, Boney is taken aside while Flint hears the news about [[Hinawa|his wife]]. Boney remains in his doghouse for the remainder of Chapter 1, [[Chapter 2]], and [[Chapter 3]].
He later appears in [[Chapter 4]], when [[Lucas]] takes him out on a walk, which quickly sprouts a chain of various events leading to an important journey. Boney accompanies Lucas for the rest of the game, even when the rest of the party ends up being separated. He is a very loyal and smart dog, although he prefers not to do tricks, such as shaking his paw. Boney can also stand on his hind legs for a long period of time, as demonstrated in Chapter 4 when he must be disguised as a person to get into [[Club Titiboo]].
====In [[Chapter 4]]====
 
Boney offers to take [[Lucas]] for a walk. The party learns that the bassist in the [[DCMC]], Lucky, looks a lot like [[Duster]], in is performing at [[Club Titiboo]]. Traveling across the [[Railroad]], Boney smells something along the way, and begins barking, leading Lucas to [[Ionia]], who teaches Lucas to use [[PSI]]. At the end of the Railway, a [[Ropeway]] denies entry without tickets, forcing Lucas to get a part-time job at the [[Factory]], where Boney runs on a treadmill to help supply power, loudly barking and disrupting the other animals. With Lucas receiving his reward, the two ride the Ropeway to Club Titiboo, but the bodyguards don't let them in, because children and dogs aren't allowed. Dressing Boney in a costume, the two try again, only to have Violet, the waitress at Club Titiboo, tell the bodyguards to let them in. Violet reveals herself to be [[Kumatora]], and the three plan to meet after the show. After the DCMC concert, Kumatora leads them through a tunnel leading to an attic. At the end of the dungeon, the two defeat the [[Jealous Bass]] and [[Beaten Drum|its]] [[Weeping Guitar|cohorts]], and the two drop to Lucky's room, where Kumatora and Duster join Lucas's party.
====In [[Chapter 5]]====
Boney removes his disguise and begins walking on four legs again. Searching for the [[Egg of Light]], the party comes across the [[Clayman]] that Duster had hidden it in - however, it is promptly struck by lightning, activating it as it runs off. Giving chase, Lucas is mistaken for the Pigmask Army's [[Masked Man|commander]], and his party are given pig masks. They are given a [[Pork Bean]] to traverse the [[Highway]], but it slips on a banana peel on the way, demolishing it. The [[Fierce Pork Trooper]] offers his Pork Bean, but then recognizes Lucas and Boney from Club Titiboo. After defeating him, they continue to chase the Clayman, finally catching up with it at the dump. The [[Forlorn Junk Heap]] then attacks the party before they can retrieve the egg. After defeating it, the party finally retrieves the Hummingbird Egg, restoring Duster's memory. Lucas, still being mistaken for the commander, is escorted along with his party to [[Thunder Tower]]. Midway through the tower, they find the Fierce Pork Trooper again, this time in his battle suit. After defeating him, [[Fassad]] interrupts them, and their cover is blown. They flee further up the tower. At the top, an alarm goes off, and [[Mr. Genetor]] attacks the party. With Mr. Genetor destroyed, they reach the top of the tower, where Fassad finally catches up. Taunting them, Fassad orders the tower be destroyed with them still on it, and calls the [[Mother Porkship]] to pick him up. Fassad then slips on a banana peel, injuring him. Using the [[Rope Snake]], Lucas's group latches onto the ship, with the [[Masked Man]] looming over. Rope Snake's jaw doesn't hold, and Lucas's party is separated.
====In [[Chapter 6]]====
Lucas finds Boney nearby where he lands in the Sunflower Fields. Both of them see an apparition of Hinawa, guiding them off a cliff.
====In [[Chapter 7]]====
Lucas and Boney land in a pile of hay, where [[Alec]] and Wess were told to pile it in their dreams by Hinawa. Both of them wake up at the [[Old Man's Paradise]], and find Ionia outside, tied up. They stand Ionia up and the three travel to Aeolia's house. Aeolia disappears in front of them, and Ionia guides them to the first of the [[Seven Needles]], already pulled.

====In [[Chapter 8]]====
Arriving in New Pork City, the party travels to a theater, where Boney smells a stinkbug. Chasing it, Boney finds the [[New Pork City sewers|apartment complex in the sewers]] underneath [[Arcade 1-Up]]. Lucas, Duster, and Kumatora are lead there by a man in the arcade who claims he hears a dog barking in the sewers below. Boney leads the party to [[Leder]], who explains the history of the [[Nowhere Islands]], committing it to a {{linkitem|key|Mother 3|Stinkbug's Memory}}. The party traverses the sewers again, interrupted by [[Miracle Fassad|Fassad]] again, with even more horns. Defeating him, Fassad drops into the sewers, and his Interpreter flies off, claiming she has no quarrel with them.

Boney's special ability is to '''Sniff''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|においをかぐ|Nioi o kagu}}''' ''Sniff'') out any weaknesses and resistances a given enemy may have, listing off the enemy's "type", one PSI weakness and one resistance when used. This technique works similarly to [[Jeff]]'s ability to spy on enemies, although unlike spying, it does not list off the enemy's stats.
