Why isn't this working for me??
I sent off my level 1 chocobos to the Calm Lands. They came back okay. Repeated with level 2, 3, 4 and 5. Theoretically, unless the strategy guide and internet are FULL OF FILTHY LIES, this should open up a Chocobo Dungeon at Clasko's ranch.
So...what the heck? Where's my dungeon? I have NEVER gotten this to work! Am I doing something wrong?
Here's a step-by-step guide of what needs to be done, courtesy of Split Infinity.

STEP 01: You'll need four lv1 bold chocobos.
STEP 02: The areas where they often appear are Kilika, Bikanel or Thunder p.
STEP 03: Go to any of these areas and begin capturing chocobos until you have
14 of them.
STEP 04: Return to the ranch and examine all chocobos you've captured by
'talking' to them in the stables. Release all chocobos whose max lv
can be 4 or lower. KEEP ONLY FOUR BOLD CHOCOBOS WHO CAN BE RAISED TO
LV5! If you don't have enough of such chocobos, return to areas I
mentioned and resume capturing.
STEP 05: You have four bold chocobos that can be raised to lv5? Good!
STEP 06: DO NOT RAISE THEM YET! Instead assign them to be your Runners.
STEP 07: Dispatch all four of them to Calm lands.
STEP 08: ONLY DISPATCHING THEM TO CALM LANDS WILL WORK!
STEP 09: Go fight 7 random battles, then return to the ranch and SAVE before
talking to Clasko.
STEP 10: Talk to Clasko and make sure that all four lv1 bold chocobos made it
back. If any ran away, reload.
STEP 11: Now raise all four lv1 bold chocobos into lv2 bold chocobos. Don't
forget to restore their Heart!
STEP 12: Dispatch all four of them to Calm lands. ONLY CALM LANDS!
STEP 13: Go fight 7 random battles, then return to the ranch and SAVE before
talking to Clasko.
STEP 14: Talk to Clasko and make sure that all four lv2 bold chocobos made it
back. If any ran away, reload.
STEP 15: Now raise all four lv2 bold chocobos into lv3 bold chocobos. Don't
forget to restore their Heart!
STEP 16: Dispatch all four of them to Calm lands. ONLY CALM LANDS!
STEP 17: Go fight 7 random battles, then return to the ranch and SAVE before
talking to Clasko.
STEP 18: Talk to Clasko and make sure that all four lv3 bold chocobos made it
back. If any ran away, reload.
STEP 19: Now raise all four lv3 bold chocobos into lv4 bold chocobos. Don't
forget to restore their Heart!
STEP 20: Dispatch all four of them to Calm lands. ONLY CALM LANDS!
STEP 21: Go fight 7 random battles, then return to the ranch and SAVE before
talking to Clasko.
STEP 22: Talk to Clasko and make sure that all four lv4 bold chocobos made it
back. If any ran away, reload.
STEP 23: Now raise all four lv4 bold chocobos into lv5 bold chocobos. Don't
forget to restore their Heart!
STEP 24: Now pay attention! Send out only Runners 1, 2 and 3 to Calm lands.
Keep Runner 4 at standby!
STEP 25: Go fight 7 random battles, then return to the ranch and SAVE before
talking to Clasko.
STEP 26: Talk to Clasko and make sure that all three Runners you sent out
made it back. If any ran away, reload.
STEP 27: Restore any and all lost Heart!
STEP 28: Again, pay attention! This time send out only Runners 2, 3 and 4 to
Calm lands. Keep Runner 1 at standby!
STEP 29: Go fight 7 random battles.
STEP 30: This time when you go back to the ranch, a scene will issue in which
Clasko tells girls that chocobos have discovered something in the
back of the ranch and would like you to go check it out.
STEP 31: Entrance to the dungeon will appear as a green square on the
minimap. Have fun!
Ohhhhhhh, BOLD chocobos! I betcha that's where I was screwing up. I'm going to go try it. I'll let you know how it works out.
You don't need bold chocobos, I just recently did it with one timid and one normal chocobo in the fray. And also, you can send them where ever you want, it doesn't have to be just the Calm Lands. Bold chocobos like going to the Calm Lands, but it's not necessary.
A problem that a lot of people have is that when they have their level 5 chocobos come back safely, they expect the scene to just happen. You have to exit and reenter the Chocobo Ranch after your level 5 chocobos come back safely, and then the scene will happen. So make sure of the following:
1. You've sent out 3 or every level of chocobo and they've all come back safely.
2. You have four level 5 chocobo runners.
That's all you need to do, the type of chocobo you send out or where you send them doesn't matter. If you've done all this, and you exit and reenter the Chocobo Ranch, then the scene will happen. If it doesn't, then you've missed something.
Some of the requirements for sidequests in FF seem so involved and arbitrary. I wonder if I would ever fully complete an FF game if it weren't for mag's, web sites, and word of mouth....
SeeDRankLou, u just saved my sisters from going practically insane. Thanks XD. Uhhmm.. she keeps saying "thank yoouuu" right now actually XD:choc:
i thought to open the secret dungeon yo0h had to level up 5 chocobos to level 5 and send them out nd then tlk to clasko..
