Anyone who wants to breed
Chocobos needs to find a Male and Female Chocobo Card to
breed as well as obtain a VCS Honeymoon Package.
Keep in mind a couple of different factors when collecting your 2
Chocobo Cards:
- 2 Cards of the same color greatly increase the odds that your
Chick will become this color. Kind of logical.
- If you want your Chick to be born with an ability, at least one
of the parent cards must bear the desired ability. Chances greatly
increase when both parent cards bear this same ability. Kind of
logical as well.
Your next step is to visit Finbarr at the Upper
Jeuno Stables. Finbarr is the NPC which sells Honeymoon plans
for the thrifty price of 5k per plan. Each honeymoon plan has a
certain function which may either be increases the chances that your
Chocobo is a certain sex or adding a slight advantage to a base stat.
Listed here are the 4 types of Honeymoon packages that you can choose
from.
A. Gourmet Plan
Base Stat: Strength
Increased Chance of Gender: Male
...the chocobos can enjoy fine dining together.
Good food gives the chocobos strength, and increases the chances that a
male chick will be born... increased chance the resulting
chick
will become male, and inherit abilities from the parents.
B. Sports Plan
Base Stat: Endurance
Traits inherited from: Male Parent Card
...the chocobos can enjoy a vigorous exercise program together. This
increases the chance
that a chick with high endurance will be born.
Competition also raises the possibility that the male chocobo's traits
will be inherited...
increased chance the resulting chick will become
male, and inherit color from the parents.
C. Hiking Plan
Base Stat: Discernment
Increased Chance of Gender: Female
...the chocobos can enjoy the sights and sounds of nature together. The
fresh air will have a beneficial effect on your chocobo's intelligence,
and increase the chance that a female chick will be born... increased
chance the resulting chick will become female, and inherit abilities
from the parents. |

D. Jeuno Tour Plan
Base Stat: Receptivity
Traits inherited from: Female Parent Card
...the chocobos will get a tour of Jeunoan
streets led by yours truly. Seeing new sights will improve the chances
of a highly receptive chick being born. Another of this date's features
is the increased possibility that the female's traits will be inherited... increased chance the resulting chick will become female, and inherit
color from the parents.
Trading a VCS Honeymoon Package Card plus
your two Parent cards results in an adorable
Cut Scene where the two Chocobos corresponding to the two Chocobo Cards
you traded appear and go on a honeymoon together.
It's probably one of the most adorable Cut Scenes in the game, so Enjoy!
After the Cut Scene, Finbarr says a standard line about how he wonders
what color a Sire
and Dame's offspring would be. This is just a standard NPC quote
and has nothing to do with your egg.
Wait approximately a Real Life 24-hours and return to Finbarr and he should grant you
your new Chocobo Egg. I've seen the egg being granted a few hours
less, so this is just an approximation.
Now it's time to bring your egg to a VCS Caretaker in one of the home
villages.
Note: Whoever you choose to be your Chocobo Caretaker will remain
this Chocobo's caretaker for the remainder of its existance in that
particular Stables.
You cannot check another Stable to feed and take care of that Chocobo.
This village will be your permanent location where you will raise your
Chocobo.
After this Chocobo is retired and you begin a new Chocobo, you may
designate another village's stables as the location to raise your
Chocobo. But once again, you cannot change Stable locations midway
during the Raising Process.
