If Flowey is spared, he will appear afterward and elaborate on the hint, but if he is killed, the game immediately returns to the title screen. Upon completing the Neutral Route, the protagonist will receive a phone call post credits that will provide a hint to the next requirement for getting the True Pacifist Ending. This ending can be considered to be the "true ending" to Undertale, leading to a happy conclusion and the complete credits. The True Pacifist Route leads to one of the endings of Undertale. We know Napstablook is able to enter the Ruins, but it's unclear why they would approach Toriel in particular, so I think this is pretty far-fetched (especially since Napstablook seems totally unaware of the entire situation during the epilogue).HIGHLY RECOMMEND BEATING PACIFIST ROUTE FIRST Papyrus told Alphys, Alphys told Mettaton (who does very briefly appear in the scene before the final boss), Mettaton told Napstablook (his cousin), and Napstablook told Toriel.By contrast, Flowey does occasionally appear just out of sight behind the player, and quickly burrows underground should the player backtrack. But I'm skeptical of this, because in the Neutral Route, you can backtrack all the way to Snowdin at any time, and you never encounter her. As you suggest, Toriel was following Frisk the whole time.But it seems odd that she never mentions Flowey after the final boss, so I'm not sure this makes sense. In the True Pacifist Route, Flowey approaches her in the Ruins and guilt trips her into following Frisk.In the True Pacifist Route, Sans does not appear in the Last Corridor, so he wouldn't be there to stop Toriel. They recognize each others' voices and proceed to have a lengthy conversation. In the Neutral Route, Sans stops Toriel at the Last Corridor, probably because he doesn't recognize her and/or is concerned for her safety (there's a human and a boss monster fighting just a few rooms away!).
In the absence of canon evidence, I would speculate that one or more of the following happen differently (in roughly decreasing order of likelihood):
As far as I can tell, the game offers no explanation whatsoever for Toriel's presence in the Pacifist Route but not in the Neutral Route. Unfortunately, that's where we run out of evidence. We know this from an exchange between Alphys and Papyrus, right before Flowey appears and incapacitates everyone. Papyrus shows up because Flowey told him to, and everyone else shows up because Papyrus told them to. Is there something I missed? Did Frisk do something on the Pacifist route that directly resulted in the changed encounter with Asgore?Īs an initial matter, Toriel is the only character whose actions demand explanation.

However when Frisk detoured to the True Lab after the LOAD, that gave her enough time to make it to the castle and give Asgore a face full of fireball before he could start the fight. The only thing I can think of is that Toriel was on her way to the castle the whole time during the Neutral Route, but didn’t arrive in time to save Frisk or Asgore. There seems to be no causal connection between Frisk’s activities after the LOAD and the new outcome when Asgore is prevented from fighting Frisk. No message is sent to Toriel during the Pacifist route to bring her to the castle. Nobody has to die, hooray!īut what event within the story actually caused the fight with Asgore to change? Why did Toriel show up at the fight the second time instead of the first? It can’t have been because of the events in the True Lab – they had nothing to do with either Asgore or Toriel. Frisk heads to the True Lab, helps Alphys and the Amalgametes, and the next time he encounters Asgore the fight will be stopped by Toriel. If the player follows Flowey’s advice and does a LOAD to get a better ending, time/space is reset to a point before that fight. So, during the Neutral route, Asgore fights Frisk, and then is killed in the end.
SPOILERS for the endings of Undertale below, obviously.
