Chocobo Farm

Talk to the chocobo in the pen
Wark!
Wark? Warkwark wark?
Wark
If you can carry more materia
Wark-----
Received "Choco/Mog" Materia!
If you can't carry any more materia
Wark!! Wark!!
They tried to give you something but you couldn't get it.
Warrrk
Wark!! Wark!!

[FRMIN: Chocobo farm] Inside the house on the left side of chocobo farm
Talk to the guy
Before getting the Tiny Bronco
If he hasn't talked about the Zolom yet
First time
Choco Bill:
Thinking of crossing the marshes?
Yeah
Not interested
Afterwards
Choco Bill:
Still want to cross the Marshes?
Yeah
No
If you answered yes
Choco Bill:
Hmm, then it'll probably be safer for you to get a Chocobo.
Choco Bill:
That way you can zip through the marshes with the Chocobo.
It's the only way to avoid being attacked by the Midgar Zolom.
Choco Bill:
Midgar Zolom...?
Choco Bill:
It's a serpent-like creature over 30 feet tall!!
Choco Bill:
It picks up on footsteps that enter the marshes...
Choco Bill:
And then, BAM!! It attacks!!!
Choco Bill:
To avoid that, buy a Chocobo at the Choco Bill & Choco Billy Chocobo Farm.
To purchase a Chocobo, please talk to my grandson. He's in the Chocobo stables at the far right end of the farm.
If you answered no
Choco Bill:
Hmm, then, I guess that's that.
If he has talked about the Zolom
Choco Bill:
By the way, there was another person heading towards the Marshes.
Without a Chocobo, the Midgar Zolom probably got him. It was a man in a Black Cape.
After getting the Tiny Bronco, before Meteor is summoned
Choco Bill:
Welcome.
If you haven't bought Chocobo Lure materia yet
Choco Bill:
How 'bout a Chocobo Lure materia?
Each level it increases, makes it easier for you to find a Chocobo.
After Meteor is summoned
First time
Choco Bill:
Oh, what is that? What has this world come to? Stars falling and everything.
Choco Bill:
With things the way they are now, how 'bout raising a Chocobo?
No, I'm not trying to persuade you for money. It's just because of the state of things in the world.
I thought that it would be a good and healthy thing for you to raise some Chocobos...
Choco Bill:
Hmm...You just happen to be in luck!
It just so happens that we aren't taking care of any Chocobos for anyone else, so...
Choco Bill:
I could take care of 6 Chocobos right now, for 10000 gil per Chocobo. How 'bout it?
Afterwards
If Cloud is the party leader
Take care of my Chocobos
Tell me something else
How do you raise them?
Nothing
If Tifa is the party leader
Could you take care of the chocobos?
I'd like to hear about something else
Tell me how you raise them
That's all
If Cid is the party leader
Take care of my Chocobos
I wanna hear about something else
How do ya raise 'em?
That's enough
If you asked him to take care of chocobos
First time
Choco Bill:
To raise a Chocobo, you'll need a 'Chocobo Stable'.
And they rent for 10000 gil. Currently, I can rent out up to 6 'Chocobo Stables'.
If you rent a 'Chocobo Stable', we will keep up to 4 of the Chocobos you catch in the fenced area outside.
At a later date, you can select the Chocobo that you would like to put in your 'Chocobo Stable'.
If you haven't rented all six stables
Choco Bill:
'Chocobo Stables' cost 10000 gil...
Rent it
If you have enough money
Choco Bill:
Thank you.
My grandson takes care of the Chocobos. He's in the Chocobo Stable at the far right of the farm. Please tell him what you want.
If you don't have enough money
Choco Bill:
....... Ummm, you don't have enough...
Don't need it
If you've rented all six stables
Choco Bill:
We don't have enough room to rent out more than 6 here...
If you said you want to hear something else
Choco Bill:
Someone once told me there is a 'Chocobo Sage'...somewhere.
He seems to know how to raise some great Chocobos.
If he really does exist, I'd like to meet him someday.
If you asked about raising them
Choco Bill:
Chocobos aren't hard to take care of.
The day to day care will all be done here.
But, please buy the food for the Chocobo, and feed them yourselves.
Chocobo's abilities will differ with what you feed it, so feel free to choose your own food.
Also, if you're able to find a male and a female Chocobo that like each other, they'll produce an egg. But only if you feed them a 'Nut'.
New Chocobos inherit the abilities of their parents.
I've heard that sometimes new breeds of Chocobo are born with special abilities. I've never actually seen it before, though.
Head for the beds
If Cloud is the party leader
Choco Bill:
Looking for an Inn?
Yeah
Not interested
If Tifa is the party leader
Choco Bill:
Looking for an Inn?
Yup
Nope
If Cid is the party leader
Choco Bill:
Looking for a place to stay?
Right
Nope
If you answered yes
Choco Bill:
How about 100 gil a night...?
All right
If you have enough money
Choco Bill:
Thank you for your patronage.
If you don't have enough money
Choco Bill:
....... Ummm, you don't have enough...
I'm in a hurry
Choco Bill:
Hmm, then, I guess that's that.
If you answered no
Choco Bill:
Hmm, then, I guess that's that.
Please for a second.

[FRCYO: Chocobo Ranch] Inside the barn in the back of chocobo farm
Talk to the kid standing in the back
Before Meteor is summoned
If you haven't spent any money at the farm yet
Chole:
Welcome.
If you've spent money at the farm
Chole:
Wasn't it really expensive?
Chole:
But don't be mad at my brother or Grandpa.
Chole:
Ever since dad and mom died, it's been like this...
After Meteor is summoned
If you haven't gotten this hint and haven't talked to the white chocobo in Mideel, or you haven't gotten any advice from Chocobo Sage
Chole:
Welcome! Hey, I've got something good to tell you.
The white Chocobo likes it when you scratch behind its ears.
But if you scratch it someplace that it doesn't like, it'll get mad, so be careful.
If you've gotten advice from Chocobo Sage, and have gotten the hint about white chocobos or talked to the white chocobo in Mideel
First time
Chole:
Hey, do you know what a Chocobo Sage is?
Chole:
What!? You've actually met him!?
Wow! What did he tell you?
Chole:
Wow, that's amazing! ...let me take some notes.
Afterwards, if you got new advice from Chocobo sage since the last time you talked
Chole:
Hey, did you ever see the Chocobo Sage again? What did he tell you?
Chole:
Wow, that's amazing! ...let me take some notes.
Otherwise
Chole:
What...?
Let me jot this down
If you've gotten the first advice from Chocobo sage
Other than regular Chocobo, there are "Mountain Chocobo" and "River-Chocobo".
If you've gotten the second advice from Chocobo sage
In order for the "Mountain Chocobo" and "River Chocobo" to be born,
You feed the "Carob Nut" to a "Great Chocobo" or a "Good Chocobo" and have it produce an egg.
But we don't sell any "Carob Nuts".
If you've gotten the third advice from Chocobo sage
A "Great Chocobo" and a "Good Chocobo" are found...
On an island Southeast of the Chocobo Sage's dwelling at Corel. And in the area west of Corel.
The "Carob Nut" can be found south of the Chocobo Sage's dwelling. Monsters carry them.
Let's see, is Bone Village just south of there?
If you've gotten the fourth advice from Chocobo sage
One surprise If you get the "Mountain Chocobo" and the "River Chocobo" to produce an egg,
You'll get a Chocobo that can cross mountains and rivers. I bet that the right nut for that is the "Carob Nut."
If you've gotten the fifth advice from Chocobo sage
Bigger surprise: There seems to be a Chocobo that can cross the ocean.
If you could cross the ocean, mountains, and rivers, there'd be no place you couldn't go.
If you've gotten the sixth advice from Chocobo sage
In order to get an Ocean Chocobo you need to get a Mountain-and-river Chocobo to mate with something else.
If you've gotten the seventh advice from Chocobo sage
If you mate the Mountain-and-river Chocobo with a "Wonderful Chocobo",
You'll get an Ocean Chocobo. But to do that you can't use an ordinary Nut.
If you've gotten the eighth advice from Chocobo sage
The "Nut" that produces Ocean Chocobos is the "Zeio Nut".
This is the first I've ever heard of it. I wonder where you get them?
If you've gotten the nineth advice from Chocobo sage
Zeio Nuts are found on a little island east of the Chocobo Sage.
"Goblins" have them. With this, you can produce an "Ocean Chocobo".
According to my research, Mountain, river, and ocean Chocobos are hard to produce.
But, if you take the right care of the Chocobo, and increase their Class ranking by winning at the races, it'll increase your chances of getting one.
Chole's Chocobo inspection
If you don't have any chocobo in the stables
Chole:
There are no Chocobo.
If you only have one chocobo in the stables
Chole:
Hey, there's only one Chocobo.
Otherwise
Chole:
For telling me that story, I'll tell you about each Chocobo's abilities.
Chole:
From what I see, the fastest sprinter is...
Chole:
I think it's [name].
Chole:
And, the fastest one is...
Chole:
That's [name]
Chole:
Also, from what I can tell, the one with the most stamina is...
Chole:
I think it's [name].
Chole:
Finally, the most intelligent one is...
Chole:
That's [name]
Nothing
Talk to the other kid walking around
Before Meteor is summoned
If he hasn't told you about Chocobo Lure
Choco Billy:
Do you want a Chocobo?
Cloud:
Mmm......
Give me one
Choco Billy:
You old folks are out of luck!
Cloud:
Old folks...?
Choco Billy:
We're all out of Chocobos. I'm taking care of those ones out there for someone else.
Choco Billy:
You know, if you really want a Chocobo, you should go out and catch one.
Choco Billy:
Want to know how to catch a Chocobo?
Where are they?
Choco Billy:
You see those claw prints out there? Wild Chocobo's will appear in those areas.
But, if you don't have 'Chocobo Lure' they won't come out. They very cautious animals by nature.
Chocobo Lure?
Choco Billy:
'Chocobo Lure' is a type of materia which attracts Chocobos.
If you equip this, they'll come to you. But, without it, they won't appear.
Go on
How do I catch one?
Choco Billy:
A wild Chocobo always appears with other monsters.
But, you won't be able to catch it because of the monsters.
That is why you must defeat the monsters first before you catch the Chocobo.
And then?
Choco Billy:
Also, wild Chocobos are really cautious. They'll run away from the slightest things.
But, if you use 'Greens' They'll focus on that, and won't run away.
That all you can talk about?
What else?
Choco Billy:
Whatever you do, don't make Chocobos angry. They're usually calm, but if you get them angry, you'll get hurt.
Oh, and remember, once you get off a Chocobo, it'll escape.
Not interested
Choco Billy:
Well then, shall we get down to business?
Choco Billy:
I'll sell you the 'Chocobo Lure' for 2000 gil, right now.
Choco Billy:
You want it?
Buy it
Don't buy it
Nope
Choco Billy:
Oh, I'm so glad!
If he has told you about Chocobo Lure
Choco Billy:
The 'Chocobo Lure' is 2000 gil. Buy it now?
Buy it
Don't buy it
If you chose to buy Chocobo Lure
Choco Billy:
Thanks!
If you have enough money
They don't check if your materia bag is full here. If it's already full then you won't get anything and will never be able to get it again!
Get Chocobo Lure materia
Choco Billy:
It wouldn't hurt to buy some 'Greens' either.
Oh, and how fast a Chocobo'll finish eating depends of what type of 'Greens' you feed them.
If you don't have enough money
Choco Billy:
Hey, you don't have enough.
If you chose not to buy Chocobo Lure
Choco Billy:
Mmmm, if you don't have it, you'll never catch one.
After Meteor is summoned
Choco Billy:
Welcome!
Buy
Get some information
Feed?
Choco Billy:
What the Chocobo eats are 'Greens' The most famous one is the 'Gizzard Greens.'
Chocobos will mature differently depending on which 'Greens' they eat. Certain 'Greens' will boost their stamina.
You'll have to figure out what kinds have what effects for yourselves.
Oh, and Chocobos are born with certain natural abilities. So no matter how much they mature, they can't get more abilities than what they're born with.
Remember that if a Chocobo's abilities don't increase even though you feed it, that means its limit is reached.
It's best to let those kinds of Chocobo go or mate them to get a new Chocobo.
Mating?
Choco Billy:
A male and a female Chocobo together can produce an egg.
Chocobo by the fence?
Choco Billy:
The Chocobo out there is part of the stock that you caught.
We can only keep 4 Chocobos here at once. If you get a fifth one, the first one will have to be let go.
If you don't want that to happen, come back and put it in your own stable.
Ride it outside?
Choco Billy:
Yeah, you can ride this one.
And even if you take it outside, this Chocobo won't run away when you get off of it.
If you want to return it to your 'Chocobo Stable' just ride it onto the farm.
Then, you'll be able to feed it again.
What are "Classes"?
Choco Billy:
Chocobos 'strengths are divided by 'Class'.
Newborns or ones that have just been caught are a "C" Class.
If you win the Chocobo Races at Golden Saucer, you can move up the ranks.
Nothing

If you want to put a Chocobo in it, first, you must let it go and open a 'Chocobo Stable.'
If there aren't any chocobos outside by the fence
Choco Billy:
It looks like you haven't even caught one yet...

But, in order to get an egg, you need a 'nut'. Like the 'Pipio Nut' or 'Ruchil Nut.'
'Nuts' are the Chocobos source of nourishment. And I, of course, sell them here.
If you only have one chocobo
Choco Billy:
There's only one...
If you have all male chocobos or all female chocobos
Choco Billy:
They gotta be male and female.
Choco Billy:

Talk to the guy
First time
Ho ho. It's unusual for people to come to such an out of the way place...
I can't remember how many years it's been since the last person came.
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
Who are you?
Tifa:
Who are you?
Cid:
Who are you?
Me? I'm......
I don't know.
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
You don't know who you are?
Tifa:
Wha? You don't know who you are?
Cid:
Huh? You're sayin' you don't even know who you are?
Been a while since I gave it any thought...
Wonder what they used to call me?
Oh yeah!! They used to call me the 'Chocobo Sage'. That's right!!
Right, that was it, The Chocobo Sage!!
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
(no one would forget that)
Tifa:
(Who would forget that?)
Cid:
(the hell's up with this guy?)
Chocobo Sage:
Now what can I do for you?
Before asking about the chocobo
Sell me something?
What about that Chocobo?
Chocobo Sage:
That chocobo? Well that one is...
Chocobo Sage:
Let's see now, I don't quite remember...
Nothing
After asking about the chocobo
Sell me something?
You remember something?
Each time you get a piece of advice, you need to fight up to 7 battles and come back to get the next one
First time
Chocobo Sage:
I remember now! That's the one they call...
It's a Mountain Chocobo. And just like the name says, he can cross any mountain.
There was another one that could cross rivers, too. They called him 'River Chocobo'.
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
Where can we catch one?
Tifa:
Where can we find one?
Cid:
Where can I get one of those Whatdyacallem chocobos?
Chocobo Sage:
There aren't any around now.
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
...... That's one right there isn't it?
Tifa:
What about that one right there?
Cid:
What're you flappin' about? There's one right there!
Chocobo Sage:
Wha? I wonder what he's doing there?
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Second time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh, oh yeah! That chocobo was...
......was bred from a 'Great Chocobo' and a 'Good Chocobo'.
When they're given "Carob Nuts" while breeding, there's a chance you'll get one of these Chocobos.
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
So where's this chocobo?
So where can I get some of these 'Carob Nuts'?
Tifa:
So where can I find those Chocobos?
...and what about those 'Carob Nuts'...
Cid:
So where is the chocobo?
And what about those nut things?
Chocobo Sage:
Huh? Where? Where was that?
And what was that nut?
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Third time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh, OK. I remember! That chocobo...
...It's on an island southeast of here, In a place called Corel surrounded by greenery.
You should be able to catch one just west of Corel. And some 'Carob Nuts', too......
There used to be some monsters just south of here that had them. Or you might...
............ Funny...... What was I saying just now?
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Fourth time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh right!
It was about the Mountain Chocobo and the River Chocobo I told you about.
When you mate these two together...
...you get one that can cross rivers AND mountains.
And... And also...uh, what was I saying?
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Fifth time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh, yeah! And also...
There's one that can cross oceans, too!
Depending on the party leader
Cloud:
You probably don't remember but...
How can I get one of those Chocobos?
Tifa:
You probably are going to say you forgot, but...
How can I get one of those chocobos?
Cid:
Great! I know you probably already forgot but,
Where can I get one of those chocobos?
Chocobo Sage:
Hey, don't tease me like that! To get an Ocean-crossing Chocobo, you just...
Chocobo Sage:
Let's see now... ...Nope. Don't remember a thing.
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Sixth time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh, I remember! The Ocean-crossing Chocobo is...
The Mountain-and-River-crossing Chocobo is ......is... Oh, what was I saying?
Chocobo Sage:
Let's see now... ...Nope. Don't remember a thing.
Seventh time
Chocobo Sage:
Right, right! I remember! You take the Mountain-and-River-crossing Chocobo...
Mate it with a 'Wonderful Chocobo' you can catch right around here... And you'll get...
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Eighth time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh, right! You'll need a...
'Zeio Nut'. Now let me see, as I remember, the Zeio nut...
Where was it you could find those things?
Chocobo Sage:
Can't remember for the life of me...
Nineth time
Chocobo Sage:
Oh yeah! Zeio nuts were...
The favorite of goblins. There's a small island east of here where the goblins have a bunch of them.
Afterwards, one line randomly chosen
Chocobo Sage:
I think...
...that's all I'm gonna remember.
Chocobo Sage:
Oh!
That's it...
Nothing
An ocean-crossing chocobo. Oh but...
You'll need a nut. What kind of nut was that?
Talk to the chocobo
