    Lv 25–59 across 1838 spawn points, day and night. Best spots, easiest first:

    Plus 242 more areas (all on the map).

  2. AlphaFight the Alpha Bushi

    Alphas are bigger and stronger, and they come back after a while. Weaken it, then catch it, or beat it for Ancient Technology Points the first time.

  3. DungeonInside dungeons

    Bushi appears in volcano (Lv 36–38) dungeons, and can be the dungeon boss. Dungeons open and close over time, so look for the cave icons on your map.

  4. ShopPal merchants

    Some Pal merchants sell Bushi at Lv 35–40. Their stock changes, so it won't always be there.

  5. EggBreed it

    272 different parent pairs make Bushi. See every pair

How to catch it

  • Be close to level 34 or above, with Pals that level too.
  • Bring Water Pals. They hit Bushi extra hard.
  • Lower its health first, then throw your best Pal Spheres. Throwing at its back gives a catch bonus.
