3. Head to Chocobo Intel Marked on Map

Once the side quest begins, head west from Gabe's Ranch to an abandoned farm overlooking the sea on a cliff. On the map, it is marked as Chocobo Intel.

4. Hide and Sneak Mini-Game

Once arriving at the marked location, upon finding the Junon Chocobo a stealth mini-game begins. Cloud will lose the mini-game if a Chocobo spots him, so use switches in various locations to move obstacles and keep Cloud hidden from their sight.

5. Wrangle the Chocobo Once Promted

Once the player is close enough to Belle, get behind the Junon Chocobo and press △ as soon as it is prompted. Once captured, Cloud and the team can summon the new mount anywhere at any time in Junon; this will make exploration of the Junon Region much easier.

How to Catch Junon Chocobo

Move While Hiding

Once the stealth mini-game begins, activate the switch right in front. A small train will start moving slowly; use it to your advantage to stay hidden from the Chocobos.

Activate Second Switch to Get Stone

Activate the second switch once you make it there, then proceed to pick up a few stones while on the way. The stones are very crucial for the next few steps.

Throw Stone at Third Switch

When the small train reaches this side, throw a stone at the second switch to activate it again. The obstacle will move again, allowing the player to stay hidden behind the small train.

Activate Switch with a Stone to Move Obstacle

Upon arriving at the next small train, throw a stone at the switch at the back. The obstacle will start moving to the right, so stay close to it to avoid being spotted by the Chocobos.

Press the Triangle Button to Catch the Junon Chocobo

The route of the small train should lead straight to Belle. Slowly approach the Junon Chocobo, and when the Triangle (△) button prompt appears, press it as soon as possible to capture it!

Junon Chocobo Type

Mountain Chocobo

The Junon Chocobo is a Mountain Chocobo, which is a unique type of Chocobo that can scale vertical walls and help you reach otherwise inaccessible areas.

To climb walls using the Junon Chocobo, simply look for walls with faint markings that point upward with a mural of a Chocobo. Simply approach that wall and your Chocobo will automatically attach itself to the wall.
