'''Chocographs''' {{J|チョコグラフ|Chokogurafu}} are rare stones in ''[[Final Fantasy IX]]'' that serve as "treasure maps". They guide the player to [[Treasure chest (object)|treasure chests]] that can only be found when riding on [[Choco]].
   
Chocographs are found by digging in the [[minigame]] [[Chocobo Hot and Cold]] played in [[Chocobo Forest|Chocobo's Forest]], [[Chocobo's Lagoon]] and [[Chocobo's Air Garden]]. There are 24 in total, and they appear randomly at dig sites. Treasure boxes found contain many rare items, and even transports [[Choco]] to [[Chocobo's Dream World]], thus giving him new abilities and a new color. If the treasure contains a [[Tetra Master]] card and the player's card quota is full, the card appears to have been discarded. However, if the player collects all chocograph treasures, they can reclaim the discarded cards from [[Fat Chocobo#Final Fantasy IX|Fat Chocobo]] in [[Chocobo's Paradise]].

Chocographs are found by digging in the [[minigame]] [[Chocobo Hot and Cold]] played in [[Chocobo's Forest (Final Fantasy IX)|Chocobo's Forest]], [[Chocobo's Lagoon]] and [[Chocobo's Air Garden]]. There are 24 in total, and they appear randomly at dig sites. Treasure boxes found via the chocographs contain many rare items, and sometimes transport Choco to [[Chocobo's Dream World]] giving him new abilities and color. If the treasure contains a [[Tetra Master (minigame)|Tetra Master]] card and the player's card quota is full, the card appears to have been discarded. However, if the player collects all chocograph treasures they can reclaim the discarded cards from [[Fat Chocobo#Final Fantasy IX|Fat Chocobo]] in [[Chocobo's Paradise]].

==List of chocographs==
Some versions of the game have a bug that let the player access the chocograph that turns Choco into a flying chocobo before the party has access to an [[airship]], resulting in the [[Gold Chocobo Bug]]. In the fixed game versions, Mene will tell the player when they can no longer find more Chocographs until progressing further in the game.

First chocograph

Zidane finds his first Chocograph.

A stone slab buried in the forest.

Chocographs (チョコグラフ, Chokogurafu?) are rare stones in Final Fantasy IX that serve as "treasure maps". They guide the player to treasure chests that can only be found when riding on Choco.

Chocographs are found by digging in the minigame Chocobo Hot and Cold played in Chocobo's Forest, Chocobo's Lagoon and Chocobo's Air Garden. There are 24 in total, and they appear randomly at dig sites. Treasure boxes found via the chocographs contain many rare items, and sometimes transport Choco to Chocobo's Dream World giving him new abilities and color. If the treasure contains a Tetra Master card and the player's card quota is full, the card appears to have been discarded. However, if the player collects all chocograph treasures they can reclaim the discarded cards from Fat Chocobo in Chocobo's Paradise.

List of chocographs

Click on location images to see larger versions. If the location that the chocograph is found in is listed as Forest (Revisit) or Lagoon (Revisit), this means that the chocograph only appears there after gaining the Mountain and Sea abilities respectively.

Etymology

"Choco" is short for "chocobo". The name "chocobo" derives from a Japanese brand of chocolate malt ball by Morinaga, ChocoBall (チョコボール, Chokobōru?). The mascot for this product is Kyoro-chan (キョロちゃん?), a bird who says "kweh".

食う / くう / kuu is a rough way to say "eat", whose volitional casual form is 食え / くえ / kue ("let's scoff 'em down!"), leading to Kweh!

The "graph" suffix may relate to "photograph" or "cartograph".
