Chocobo wrangling is probably one of the most frustrating parts of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, more so since they’re essential for exploration. If you’re having trouble wrangling all chocobos across the continent, this is your guide.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth: Chocobo capture guide
The only chocobo I didn’t include is the Grassland’s field chocobo, which can easily be caught during its tutorial.
Junon’s Mountain Chocobo
Belle, Junon’s Mountain Chocobo, can only be caught by skillfully hiding behind these moving crates. The crates will only move if you pull the lever. Thus, the trick is to move as they move, which is easier said than done, especially in the last part.
If you’re consulting this guide, you’re probably stuck here. You start the sequence by throwing a rock from this batch of tall grass and keep yourself to the side of the cart that is away from the chocobos’ eyes.

Then, once you’ve passed it, transition once again to the outer circle until you can get behind Belle. Do NOT roll when you’re near any chocobo as the sound can give you away.
Cosmo Canyon’s Soaring Chocobo
Much like Junon, Cosmo Canyon’s Soaring Chocobo, Aponi, requires a minigame pass to reach. This time, you’ll have to hide behind wagons. It’s a little tricker compared to Junon too, as your hiding spots often only work when they’re not looking in your direction.
Run towards the lever and pull it while it’s distracted.

After changing tracks, just continue towards Aponi with all the wagon pulling knowledge I’ve taught you. You need topush the wagon all the way to the end of the tracks.
Once you’ve reached the end, throw a rock to get Aponi to look at it.
Its attention span is very short, so it’ll only be distracted for a while.Rollto its behind quickly and wrangle!
Nibel’s Ocean Chocobo
Nibel’s ocean chocobo, Selena, is wrangled using a method different from the rest. Instead of sneaking up to her location, you need tolure her near the entrance with bait.
To start, climb up this hill and take a bunch of chocobo bait from the grass (they spawn infinitely, so you’ll never run out). Move where Selena is initially and start throwing bait.
The path you need to follow is marked with chocobo tracks. Remember to avoid the cacti, or Selena will get hurt. Too much damage and she’ll run back to her safe space.
This is the ideal space you want her to be at.
Roll out of the grass and press Triangle. It’s okay if the other chocobo spots you; your wrangling is faster!
