Another special negotiation with Pyro Jack is in Strange Journey, where both he and Jack Frost can be told they are a mascot. Jack Frost will always be extremely pleased by this and I think he'll join you for free, but Pyro Jack will be furious because he knows he's not the mascot.
I want to chime in here! Remember when you mentioned Pyro Jack as one of Atlus' mascots, with Jack Frost? Well, though a minor appearance... There are characters wearing gear with The Jack's faces on them in Etrian Odyssey. Jack Frost, for example, is on a badge accessory worn by the Blonde Female Gunner, and that gunner got an alternate color in Nexus with Black Frost instead. And if you're wondering where Pyro Jack factors into this, well... Two characters have Pyro Jack accessories! The first is Olympia from Etrian Odyssey III, who has Pyro Jack's face on her earmuffs (Which she wears to conceal the fact that she's a Robot to your guild at first), the second is one of the characters of Etrian Odyssey II Untold's story mode, the War Magus Chloe... who has it on her hat.
One moment about Pyro Jack I always remember is his conversation in Strange Journey where he expresses bitternes that he always has play second fiddle to his brother. I absolutely love the Devil Buster Busters versions of Jack Frost and Pyro Jack! Would really love to see them again.
Pyro Jack is part of a Halloween event in IMAGINE, I don't remember which year though. Basically you had to do some quests to help him recruit some demons for his Halloween band. I remember two of the demons are Sarasvati and David, but I can't remember the other one. If you complete the quests, you get stuff and see a little performance from his band.
Pyro Jack appeared in Persona 4 The Animation as the first Persona other than Izanagi that Yu summons, representing his Magician Social Link. He plays a pivotal role in defeating Shadow Chie and Shadow Yukiko, burning away the rugs Shadow Chie was using to trap the group and playing defense against Shadow Yukiko, absorbing her fire attacks and leaving her wide open for a one-two knockout by Jiraya and Tomoe.
Some of the demon naming in this series is inconsistant. They tend to alternate between names in SMT, Devil Survivor, Devil Summoner, and Persona, like sometimes Wu Kong is called Seiten Taisen, the Chinese Celestial Beast either have their Chinese names or their Japanese name, Preta is sometimes called Gaki, SMT 1 Asura is now called Asura Lord as to not confuse for the Strange Journey Asura.
I love these videos, as they always expand my knowledge when it comes to the ones I don't know much about, As I didn't know about the coin part of Jack's story, but I knew about the apple part
in Dx2, the normal Pyro Jack of the yellow archetype has a unique skill (that only shares with Jack Frost) which is "Tag", skips a turn without using any press turn icons which is tremendously helfpul for nuke teams which needs the extra turns for concentrate and gaining MP dx2wiki.com/index.php/Tag
Demonic Addendums: Shin Megami Tensei 5: A Pyro Jack can be summoned as a navigator. He's initially there on orders of Oberon of the Fairy Village to serve as intermediary between the Nahobino and Idunn. a Pyro Jack also appears in Ginza and initiates the request "Lighting the Way", where he asks for Fire Gems. After completing this request, you can continue to trade Fire Gems with him for items. Soul Hackers 2: A Pyro Jack is a boss fight alongside a Jack Frost in Saizo's Soul Matrix 2F. Persona 5 Strikers: In the very first request, "Take Back the Desire", a Pyro Jack shadow pockets a person's desire, and the Phantom Thieves defeat him to return the desire. Digital Devil Saga 2: A Pyro Jack in the Underground City sells the party Impel Stones for FIFTY THOUSAND MACCA APIECE. What is an Impel Stone, you may ask? Why, it's a PSYCHO RAGE AS AN ITEM! You can only have one at a time, but that is a RIDICULOUS effect, and it's no surprise that this item is exclusive to this game.
The biggest thing I took away from this is that I really hope that we get a Jack-o-lantern equivalent of frost ace who’s helmet looks like a turnip.
He could be the Megami Tensei version of an Onion Knight...but with a turnip XD

Pyro and Frost-hee-o doing Japanese comedy together is the most delightful and adorable thing out of Persona 3! :D

I always figured his name was Pyro Jack in the west until P5 due to character limitations.

Time to binge through all of the videos.
This is a pretty good place to jump in :D Hope you enjoy 'em all!
Probably should've saved this guy for Halloween, but I'm not complaining.
What about an episode on Mastema?
agree
That’s a fun episode for a milestone episode

You forgot to mention that in persona 5 during the boss battle against Caroline and justine, pyro Jack is one the personas used by Caroline
How about an episode on Mermaid, Yoshitsune or Trumpeter?

Congrats on 50 episodes!
I really hope to see Azazel. He's often a very rare demon to see ever get into a smt game. Let alone being the design back in Soul Hackers

So when you hit the 100th compendium will talk about Jack Frost for real
I don't want to make any promises, but I would say that's quite possible.
And it should be one hour.
Tbh pyro jack is just godsend of a name
50 episodes in that's crazy
Let’s do some SMT2 demons as a double whammy episode with Chris the Car and/or Audrey when SMT2 had movie monsters.

You still don't have a recording device for the 3DS huh? That's gonna be tough whenever you decide cover one of the SMTIV, or Apocalypse demons
True, but I don't plan to cover any of them any time soon XD
