Please enjoy.<\/p>\n

Rare Yo-kai Befriending Checklist!<\/h2>\n

Before you head out to befriend your favorite rare yo-kai, you should prepare! Try to do as many of the items on the follow checklist as possible!<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Have a yo-kai with the \u201cPopularity<\/strong>\u201d passive skill (Schmoopie, Pinkipoo, Casanuva \u2026 etc) on your team!<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make sure you don\u2019t<\/em> have any yo-kai with the Unpopularity<\/strong> skill (Pookivil, Casanono \u2026 etc) on your team.<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make sure you have your yo-kai\u2019s favorite food<\/strong> on hand. Favorite foods will be mentioned in this article, but you may also find them listed here<\/a><\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make and equip the Superstar Soul<\/strong> (created by fusing a Pinkipoo and Cupistol soul gem together).<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make sure you have a yo-kai that can inspirit<\/strong> the enemy reliably, a yo-kai with an inspiriting Soultimate move is also good (Warunyan, Toiletta and Foiletta are good choices, for example). You will need to inspirit your target yo-kai so that you can use the Model Zero Watch \u201cPoke\u201d <\/strong>feature to increase befriending chance.<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Donate<\/strong> money at the Mt. Wildwood Shrine<\/strong> everyday for ten days in a row… attempts to capture rare yo-kai is best on the 9th and 10th days, as these donations increase your befriending chance a little each time you donate.<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make sure your team is not too much more powerful than your target yo-kai\u2026 if you defeat the target yo-kai too quickly you may miss the chance to use the poke feature, and may also miss the chance for befriend-boosting wisps<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

\u2b1c\ufe0e Make sure your Watch is up to S-Rank. You will be able to upgrade from A-Rank to S-Rank once you have completed the entire main storyline and completed the game.<\/p>\n

Rare Yo-kai Locations & Foods<\/h2>\n

Some rare yo-kai (and rare yo-kai fusion items) can only be obtained via the Crank-a-kai<\/strong> and\/or using special Crank-a-kai coins; Buchinyan, Noko, Singcada, Statiking, Count Cavity, Shadow Venoct, Bananose, Unikirin, Eterna, Sandi, Cruncha, Devourer, Kingmera, Apelican,\u00a0So-Sorree, Frostail, Flengu, Auntie Heart, Arachnia, Uber Geeko, Mermother, Dracunyan, Panja Pupil, Panja Pro, Happycane, Starrycane, Takoyakid, Takoyaking, Danke Sand, No Sandkyu, Sumodon, Yokozudon, Grumpus Khan, Groupus Khan, Whateverest, Whatuption, Samureel, Time Keeler, Slumberhog, <\/strong>and Snortlehog<\/strong> are only obtainable in this way.<\/p>\n

On very very rare occasion you may<\/em> get lucky and encounter a rare crank-a-kai only yo-kai (such as Count Cavity, Eterna, and Statiking for example) in the Infinite Tunnel<\/strong>, but this method is not a reliable method and impossible to control –however-<\/em> it is always worth doing the tunnel every day anyway, just incase! Be prepared! Some rare yo-kai can also be found in the Infinite Inferno<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n

Now that we\u2019re ready to try and find the rest, the next thing you\u2019ll need to know is where the rare yo-kai are, and what foods to bring along. Many rare yo-kai are out in the wild (you’ll need a little bit of luck to encounter them each time, in the general locations) or sometimes appear in specific Yo-kai Spots.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some special, rare yo-kai (many of which you will need a download code or qr code to unlock) are in fixed locations and -while easily found- only give you \u201cone chance per day\u201d to face them. In this case, you can save just before<\/strong> the encounter and do a soft reset<\/strong> of the game to try again many times in a row, this same technique can also be used with Yo-kai Spot yo-kai.<\/p>\n

You will first need to scan many of the QR Codes on this page<\/a><\/strong> in order to unlock some of these 1 chance-per-day yo-kai friends. Other’s are obtained by download code or via a quest.<\/p>\n

Yo-kai Watch 2 Yo-kai Spots<\/h2>\n

Keep in mind that Yo-kai Spot yo-kai can change each time they appear<\/strong> and it may take several tries for a rare yo-kai to appear in it’s potential spot. You may need to sleep in your bed to advance the day a couple of times to get a yo-kai spot to respawn. Once you find the rare yo-kai you’d like to befriend at a yo-kai spot, you should be able to save and try the soft reset technique as you do with fixed location, once-per-day yokai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Some rare yo-kai are encounter-able when special conditions are met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sir Berus<\/strong>
\nFood:<\/strong> Curry
\nLocation:<\/strong> Sometimes while walking around Springdale (modern day) a man will approach you and give you a red box. He will tell you not to open it.

\nFood:<\/strong> Meat
\nLocation:<\/strong> If you cross the streets at crosswalks without pushing the crosswalk button too many times, Snartle will appear to punish you… this is when you can try to befriend him.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Neighfarious<\/strong>

\nLocation:<\/strong> While in the Infinite Tunnel, if you exit via the 13th emergency exit door that you come across you can encounter him.<\/td>\n		Almi<\/strong>

Castelius I<\/strong>
\nFood:<\/strong> Milk
\nLocation:<\/strong> On the Shoppers Row map, at the bottom, to the left of the abandoned hospital is a house with a doorbell. Ring this doorbell and read the conversation. Then, for 10 days in a row, go to Downtown Springdale and rub the Golden Egg sculpture near the station. You’ll get a Golden ticket item, continue to rub the egg, and on the 20th day Castelius I will appear for a battle.<\/td>\n		Master Oden<\/strong>
\nFood:<\/strong> Oden
\nLocation:<\/strong> On clear nights (check your weather app!) around Uptown Springdale, Blossom Heights, Breezy Hills, and Shopper’s Row you’ll sometimes beable to find Master Oden and his oden cart.

Baddinyan<\/strong>
\nFood:<\/strong> Chocobars
\nLocation:<\/strong> Once you have progressed into the game a bit (pretty early on), eventually an event will open up. On the Shopper’s Row map, all the way on the left next to the apartment buildings you’ll find a Roughraff and a Coughkoff arguing, talk to them once to hear their argument. Next… if you want Baddinyan, talk to Roughraff the second time. You can only obtain one or the other of Thornyan or Baddinyan in this event (you can obtain the other later on via fusion).<\/td>\n		Thornyan<\/strong>
