Needs Kitsun Saddle equipped — without that gear the skill does nothing. It unlocks at Technology level 57 for 2 points, so a Pal caught early can sit unusable for a while.

The appearance belies the temperament — Kitsun spooks easily and bolts for a cave. Being run from by one was once read as an ill omen.

How to Get Kitsun

Kitsun is Fire, so a Water attacker takes it down fastest — and a Pal it resists will drag the fight long enough for it to heal or flee.

Wild Kitsun spawn between level 34 and 38. 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 exactly average, so weaken it properly and throw from behind for the back-strike bonus.
