Cogna. A chocobo made entirely of what appears to be machinery.
★SUI GENERIS: This unique soul belongs to the Mecha Chocobo from the main story.Mirage Manual entry
Mecha Chocobo is a minor character and boss in World of Final Fantasy. It is a Cogna resembling a chocobo that means to create a "new chocobo world order", as it believes chocobos are superior to humans. For reasons unknown, a moogle resides within its body.
Appearance[]
Mecha Chocobo is a Cogna that looks like an adult version of the Mecha Choco. It has black circles under its white, glowing eyes, which are shaped to give the Cogna a perpetual "angry" expression; its "plumage" consists of three pointed adornments affixed to the back of its head, with yellow-tinted spires sticking out of each of them; its "wings" are round and wide, and the undersides of them are a light shade of black, and act as compartments that house pairs of guns; its "tailfeathers" are sharp, lined with black, and contain a large thruster under them; and its "talons" are large, sharp, and contain a single large wheel under each of them.
Its main body is a simple spherical shape; the front of it has a hatch that leads to a compartment in its body, signified by the black outline that resembles the silhouette of a certain creature. In the center of the hatch is a small, rectangular slot with a curved portion cut out of the bottom of it.
The slot in the hatch shows very little of the being that resides within it, but it is enough to confirm that it is a moogle. Like most of its kind, the moogle sports yellow fur, slanted eyes, and a big, red nose.
Mecha Chocobo's appearance in Chobobo GP is the same, except the moogle no longer resides in its body, as the slot on the hatch has been replaced with a large orb that glows blue. However, the orb is likely meant to complete the visage of a moogle on the Cogna's body, as the orb is in the center of the moogle-shaped hatch, thus acting as its nose.
Personality[]
Mecha Chocobo despises humans, believing chocobos are smarter than them and should be Grymoire's dominant species. Despite this, it does not seem to care about the well-being of its own brethren, as it has no qualms using Hyperion's power for its own and turning Boko into a Cogna against its will.
The moogle residing within it has no discernible personality, as it never speaks, and its existence is never acknowledged. It may have some level of malicious intent, however, as it can be argued it created Mecha Chocobo to masquerade as a chocobo and capture and turn said creatures into Cognas for some sort of scheme.
Who's Who[]
- Notes: Cogna / Transforming robot / But also a chocobo
- Hyperion's Enslaver
- With the powerful black chocobo Hyperion under its control, the Mecha Chocobo was plotting to create a new chocobo world order. Thankfully, Bartz and his friends were able to put a stop to its mecha machinations before they got off the ground.
- Cognification
- When the Mecha Chocobo saw the strength of Boko's mind, body, and spirit—honed as they were through years of travel with Bartz—it abducted Boko and attempted to transform him into a loyal Cogna. Luckily, Bartz and Chocolatte came to the rescue and thwarted the Mecha Chocobo's plans.
- However, don't count this villain out for good. It will not rest until it has all of Grymoire in its feathery grasp.
- Chocobo Interpreter
- Cogna, robot, or otherwise, a chocobo can only "kweh." Thankfully, Chocolatte's chocochick partner was able to "translate" the Mecha Chocobo's very thoughts into human speech. Even Bartz, able to converse with Boko as he is, was bowled over by this unprecedented miracle of linguistics.

Etymology[]
(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".
The name "chocobo" derives from a Japanese brand of chocolate malt ball by Morinaga, ChocoBall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!
