Master the Palico Board in Monster Hunter Generations! Learn to manage your Palico companions, equip skills, select support moves, and train them effectively.

Alright, let's talk about the Palico Board! Think of it as your main hub for everything related to your feline buddies. You'll find these boards scattered around – there's one in the Palico Ranch near Bherna, one in your house in each of the four main villages, and even one in the Hunter's Prep Area. So, no matter where you are, you're never too far from managing your Palicos.

Here's a rundown of what you can do at the Palico Board:

  • Switch to Prowler/Hunter: This is where you swap between playing as your Hunter or as a Prowler. You can also choose which of your Palicos will be your Prowler when you switch.
  • Select Palicos: Pick the two Palicos you want to bring along on your quests, or decide to go solo by removing them both.
  • Support Moves: This is super important! You get to choose the Support Moves your Palico will have equipped. The more your Palico levels up, the more Support Moves they can learn. When you're in Prowler Mode, these moves become your go-to abilities, just like using items as a Hunter.
  • Palico Skills: Here you can equip and unequip skills for your Palicos. Just like Support Moves, the maximum skill cost your Palico can handle increases as they level up.
  • Manage Equipment: Time to deck out your buddies! Use this option to equip your Palicos with weapons and armor.
  • Equipment Sets: Good news – you can create custom equipment sets for your Palicos, just like you can for your Hunter. Makes switching gear a breeze!
  • Train Palicos: Want to boost your Palicos' stats? You can train them here. It's a slower method than Intense Training, but it doesn't cost any Enthusiasm and is free! You can even train up to three Palicos at once.
  • Dismiss Palico: Uh oh. This is where you say goodbye to a Palico permanently. Make sure you're absolutely sure before you do this!
