    Lv 50–80 across 32 spawn points, day and night. Best spots, easiest first:

    Plus 15 more areas (all on the map).

  2. EggBreed it

    Only two Shadowbeaks make a Shadowbeak, so catch two first (one male, one female), then breed them for more. Open the breeding calculator

How to catch it

  • Be close to level 55 or above, with Pals that level too.
  • Bring Dragon Pals. They hit Shadowbeak extra hard.
  • Lower its health first, then throw your best Pal Spheres. Throwing at its back gives a catch bonus.

Condensing raises its jobs like this:

  1. ★1 +1 Gathering
  2. ★2 +1 Gathering
  3. ★3 +1 Gathering
  4. ★4 +1 to every job

Condense it at a Pal Essence Condenser (unlocks at Lv 14) using 4, 8, 12 and 24 more Shadowbeak for each star (48 in all). Or feed it Starfruit ☆1 to ☆4 from the Medal trader, or a Ripe Starfruit from the Bounty token exchange. The Condenser shows the new levels before you confirm.
