Did Cassie attack a Taxxon in the Australia adventure? I believe she does morph the Kangaroo, but it's one of those morphs that's used once, and never again.

if I could get a battle morph, I would use Parker because he has such an authoritative way about him. You'd just tell the Yeerks to stop infesting humans and they would!
I go off topic on purpose.

She did, a female specifically.  And I believe that Cassie hopped into the middle of a lake and drowned the Taxxon.  And I don't think it was ever used again -- "on-screen", anyway.

That sucks. That would've been cool.

I still wonder why the Animorphs never combined DNA from Andalites to create their own. That way they'd have a kick ass tail.

You mean a Frolis Manuever on Andalite DNA, or did I misunderstand something Parker?

Yeah, that's the term. I can never remember the Andalite terms.

They could've acquired different Andalites and used the Frolis Manuever. But they never did.

It might have been a technique more advanced than Ax could teach on his own.

well first of all, they didn't encounter too many andalites. and when they did, I'm sure they had other things on their minds than cool scorpion tails...

besides, they'd have to ask permission from each one of them. how likely is an andalite going to give them permission to morph them?

They wouldn't morph them, they'd use that manuever. They could've used one of the crashed Andalites. The non-sick one. I can't remember his name.

what's the point of using the maneuver if you're not gonna morph it?

and I do believe you need more than one andalite (and best several) to do it.

Ax, Gafinilan, and Myrtil would probably be enough for them to make some Andalites that looked convincingly different, but I'm not sure what they would use the morphs for. Would it help convince the Yeerks enough that after all this time they really were Andalites? I'm not sure.

Yeah, it would definitely erase suspision that the andalites are human if they all had an Andalite morph. Plus, they'd have a wicked morph. Awesome deadly tail, the stamina and speed of having four legs. The increased tactical advantage of being able to see in all directions.

Andalite morph would be great.

Gafinilan had a DNA-related disease. if they tried to acquire him, wouldn't they acquire the disease as well?

That's why I said, "the non-sick one." ;D
