Bushi Noct
#85B
Fire
DarkIts body becomes a blade when it dies, for the next generation to take up. A Bushi that inherits it with a weak heart is driven mad by the voices of the dead inside, and that madness turns it into a Bushi Noct that wanders without end.

How to Get Bushi Noct
Bushi Noct is Fire / Dark, so a Dragon or Water attacker takes it down fastest — and a Pal it resists will drag the fight long enough for it to heal or flee.
Wild Bushi Noct spawn between level 46 and 67. The higher end resists spheres noticeably harder, so it is worth hunting the low-level spawns for your first catch and saving the high ones for a condenser stack.
Its capture rate is 1.0, which makes it dead average, which makes the back-strike bonus worth lining up before you throw.
