How to Breed a Golden Chocobo in Final Fantasy VII

Breeding a Golden Chocobo is a long and tedious task, but it is the only way to reach the remote areas of the world map that even your airship can't take you to. You will need to be on the second or third disc of this game to breed the Golden Chocobo. Good luck!

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• PlayStation Final Fantasy VII
• PlayStation Controllers
• PlayStation Memory Cards
• PlayStation Multiplayer Adapters
• PlayStations

1. Go to the Chocobo ranch south of Midgar and purchase at least four stables from Chocobo Bill.

2. Equip one of your party members with the Chocobo Lure materia Bill gives you.

3. Find some Chocobo tracks on the world map and walk over them until you get into a fight.

4. Enter battle and look for a strange-looking yellow bird among the enemies. If you see it, proceed to step 5. If not, get into another fight.

5. Kill the enemies as quickly as possible, making sure not to harm the Chocobo. If you kill them fast enough, you will win the Chocobo.

6. Return to the Chocobo ranch and place your new Chocobo in the stable.

7. Talk to Chocobo Bill. If he says, "Mmm, this one's not bad" or "This is a pretty average Chocobo," keep the Chocobo. If he says neither of these things, release it.

8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 until you have a breeding pair of Chocobos described by Chocobo Bill as "Mmm, this one's not bad" or "This is a pretty average Chocobo."

9. Fly to the Chocobo Sage's hut north of the Bone Village.

10. Buy as many Sylkis greens as you can from the Chocobo Sage.

11. Return to the farm and feed your Chocobos the Sylkis greens until their statistics are as high as they can go.

12. Fly to the Golden Saucer Casino and enter your Chocobos in the Chocobo races.

13. Race your Chocobos until they both become Class A Chocobos.

14. Fly to the small forested island due south of the Chocobo Ranch.

15. Equip one of your party members with the steal command materia.

16. Walk in the forest until you get into a fight with a band of Goblins.

17. Steal a Zeio nut from the Goblins.

18. Fly to the Chocobo farm.

19. Save your game.

20. Breed your two Chocobos, feeding them the Zeio nut. This should produce either a green or a blue Chocobo. If it doesn't, reload the game and try again.

21. Save your game.

22. Repeat steps 14 to 19 until you have two different Chocobos of different colors and sexes (a blue male and green female or vice versa).

23. Repeat steps 9 to 18 with your new green and blue Chocobos.

24. Breed the green and blue Chocobos, feeding them the Zeio nut. This should produce a black Chocobo. If it doesn't, reload the game and try again.

25. Repeat steps 9 to 12 with your new black Chocobo.

26. Race your black Chocobo until it becomes Class S.

27. Fly to the Bone Village.

28. Get in a fight in the plains outside the Bone Village with a monster called a Vlakorados.

29. Steal a Carob nut from the Vlakorados.

30. Return to the Chocobo ranch.

31. Save your game.

32. Breed the black Class S Chocobo with a yellow Class A Chocobo, using the Carob nut. This should finally produce the Golden Chocobo. If it doesn't, reload your game and try again.

Tips & Warnings

• Use the scan spell to determine the name of the monster you are facing.
• Save your game frequently.
• Give your PlayStation, as well as your eyes, a rest after about three consecutive hours of play.

on 9/29/2007 Gil-Exchange-a man who can exchange gill for GP at the rate of 100gil 1gp he well sometimes apper next to the little house at the back of gold saucers ropeway station. So keep your eyes pilled he's not always there but if you enterand exit the gold saucer several times,he should appear.it my take a while so be patient.

on 7/20/2006 When racing a chocobo, if you hold down the R1 and R2 buttons, your stamina will slowly increase. It increases at the same speed stamina decreases when holding down the square button. Because of this, if you manually control your chocobo, you can run top speed without losing any stamina, for the whole race. The first chocobo I did this with had a top speed of 97 km and it went through all of the races in A, B, and C classes without a problem. In A class, the other chocobos didn't take that long to finish after I did, so you'll want to be good at racing to win. Make sure you make the turns as short as possible, or you might not win. In S class, I won once in 5 tries with a top speed of 97 km, I recommend getting faster if you want to be unbeatable.

on 3/30/2006 Junction Knights of the Round materia to HP-absorb, and have a HP-plus materia for each member. Do not overstock on materia, for each materia you equip does 1111 damage to your character for the Airtam-Stomp. Give everyone a mime, and the person with the Knights of the Round materia W-Summon. Now you can make a never-ending chain of KOTR that heals your party, while also killing Emerald (so you don't have to heal, and end up breaking the chain).

on 11/22/2005 Equip one member of you party with all the healing materia, also with barrier, without all. With another member equip all and hast, and quake, *only using the meteria listed*. With the last member equip with quake and another all with healing materia. The levels on the quake doesn't matter, it will always do 9999 no matter what. Using 3x, cast spell with quake also helps, having 2 of the double/triple cast will speed this up even faster. Be careful not to add any more meteria, the underwater weapons final attack add 1000+ damage for each materia added to the player being damaged.

on 11/22/2005 (This trick may take many times to work.) Once your characters are at a high enough level, equip each one with their best armor and weapons. Equip no more than two materia to each character, and have them all with 9999 HPs. Fight Emerald weapon. Constantly heal, so they have maxed out health. When the weapon uses Air tam storm, it will do 2222 damage to each character. Each person will go into lucky sevens, and that should take care of the weapon. If not, heal everyone and do it again.
