Melee 80, Shot 75, Stamina 100. Rarity value 1, Size S. The four displayed stats use Attack = Shot 75. It is fragile (60 HP) — its damage comes from its explosive kit and its launcher form, not from trading blows. Type matchup. Neutral has no offensive advantages and is weak to Dark — bring a Dark Pal to catch it. Work speed 100 is the series default.

Work & drops

Work suitabilities
Gathering Lv 1

Its only work line — a light Gathering hand, but you keep Tocotoco for the Gunpowder and the launcher, not for base work.

Drops
GunpowderTocotoco Feather

Gunpowder ×1 (100%) · Tocotoco Feather ×1 (50%). A dependable early Gunpowder farm — Gunpowder gates ammunition and explosives.

Partner skill: Eggbomb Launcher

The practical breakdown of Eggbomb Launcher.

A living grenade launcherActivate it and Tocotoco mounts to your arm as an egg-bomb launcher, firing explosive eggs at whatever you point it at (base power scaling up with condensation).
Unlocks a weaponIt also unlocks the craftable "Tocotoco's Gloves" at Technology Lv 18.
Why it mattersEarly ranged explosive damage is scarce; a Pal that literally becomes a launcher gives you burst power before real weapons arrive.

The story of Tocotoco

"This Pal produces exploding eggs and often fires them from its rear as a form of defense. When spent, the Pal itself explodes."

Tocotoco is "Boom or Bust" made literal: a bird whose entire strategy is ordnance, right up to detonating itself when it runs out of eggs. It is a fixture of early bases as a Gunpowder farm, and its Eggbomb Launcher partner skill makes it one of the few Pals you can carry into a fight as a weapon.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 10. A toucan that fires bombs out of its backside. Caught a few for the Gunpowder.

Day 11. Ranch shelf is stacked with Gunpowder now — no more scrounging for ammo mats.

Day 12. Equipped one as a launcher and lobbed exploding eggs at a camp. Very effective.

Day 15. Watched one hit Megaton Implode and take itself out. Boom or bust, indeed.
