Fat Chocobo



Also known as the Big Chocobo in Final Fantasy IV, the Fat Chocobo is a large and hefty Chocobo. It first appears in Final Fantasy III, he can only be summoned by using a Carrot (or some Gysahl Greens in the DS version) in an area that "Smells like Chocobos." These areas generally appear in Chocobo towns and also on the Invincible, the final airship earned in this game. Once summoned, the fat chocobo will store items in his belly for the party.

In Final Fantasy IV he fulfils the same role, appearing in chocobo forests mostly but there is also such an area in the Dwarves' Castle. A Big Chocobo can also be found on the Big Whale and does not need to be summoned via Gysahl Greens. The Whistle can be used to summon the Big Chocobo from anywhere.

The Fat Chocobo appears as a random summon in Final Fantasy V, Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII. It also appears in Final Fantasy IX, in which it lives in Chocobo's Paradise.

In Final Fantasy Tactics, he is mentioned in the treasure Chocobo Cannon, which gets a Fat Chocobo to drink gun powder to fire it like a cannon. As the Chocobo Cannon rarely hits a target, it was never used for practical purposes.
