Near the entrance to the cave you’ll find a Paletoss Grande, which will aggressively charge you, freezing you if it comes into contact. In order to split it into two Paletoss, you’ll need to bring it into contact with fire or lava.

There are plenty of lava rivers nearby, so just bait the Paletoss over to one by having it charge you, and then once it has been thawed, a bomb-shaped timer will appear above it’s head.

Near the entrance to the cave you’ll find a Paletoss Grande, which will aggressively charge you, freezing you if it comes into contact. In order to split it into two Paletoss, you’ll need to bring it into contact with fire or lava.

There are plenty of lava rivers nearby, so just bait the Paletoss over to one by having it charge you, and then once it has been thawed, a bomb-shaped timer will appear above it’s head.

Flamin’ Cheepoof

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

Two Flamin’ Cheepoofs can be found in the lava cave, and they are the most difficult Bugsnak to capture. First, you’ll need to get the Paletoss Grande to follow you into the cave. You’ll need to make sure it doesn’t thaw, too, as we’ll use it’s frostiness to cool off the Cheepoof once we stun it.

If the Paletoss Grande does thaw, let it split into two Paletoss, as they can be used too, and will re-freeze if they stay away from the lava for long enough.

With the Paletoss in the room, prepare your Trip Shot. Scan the Flamin’ Cheepoofs and you’ll see that one of them has a lower flight path than the other. Typically their flight paths mean they will stay over the lava 95% of the time, which we don’t want as the Paletoss then won’t be able to reach them. However, the one with the lower path goes over the rocks at the edge of the lava in the corner of the room, near the entrance.

Place the Trip Shot underneath this portion of the flight path which is not over the lava, and fire it directly upwards at the ceiling, creating a vertical tripwire. When the Cheepoof hits it, it will fall onto the ground next to the lava, where the Paletoss can get to it and cool it down, giving you ample opportunity to grab it and add it to your collection.

Sherbie

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

Sherbie can be found on the part of the coast which juts out into the ocean, past the Paletoss and opposite the cave entrance. To bring it out from underground, just shoot some chocolate sauce on the ground.

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

To spawn a Cheery, you’ll first need to split a Scoopy Banoopy up into its component parts. To do so, you can either place your Trip Shot in a fire source such as a campfire or a torch and then shoot it at the Scoopy Banoopy, or you can bait the Stewdler from inside the cave over to it.

The Scoopy Banoopy, once thawed, will have a bomb-shaped timer above its head, once this reaches zero the Bugsnak will break down into its component parts, one of which is the Cheery, which will retreat up to the bushes near the cave entrance. From there, it can be captured just like a Strabby or Razzby by using a standard trap and not getting too close.

Scoopy Banoopy

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

To capture a Scoopy Banoopy, you will first need to thaw it. To do so, you can either place your Trip Shot in a fire source such as a campfire or a torch and then shoot it at the Scoopy Banoopy, or you can bait the Stewdler from inside the cave over to it.

The Scoopy Banoopy, once thawed, will have a bomb-shaped timer above its head, once this reaches zero the Bugsnak will break down into its component parts, which we don’t want if our intent is to capture it.

To capture it, you’ll need to hit it with a tripwire, stunning it so that it can be grabbed with .

Aggroll

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

The Aggroll is in an ice block on the right-hand side of the cave where the Stewdler is. To thaw the block and release the Aggroll, place your Trip Shot in one of the torches near the entrance and fire it at the ice block.

Once it is free, you’ll need to pull the box off its head with the Snakgrappler and then use the tripwire to stun it so it can be grabbed with .

Chippie

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

You can find a Chippie running around the mountain. The best place to capture it is in the cave you’ll find halfway up the mountain climb. Simply place a Tripwire in its path and grab it with when it is stunned.

Chillynilly

Spawn Conditions: Available from 4PM to 4AM in any weather.

You’ll find a Chillynilly in the cave halfway up the mountain climb, near another Stewdler. Hit the Stewdler with some Chocolate Sauce to draw the Chillynilly down to it. The heat from the Stewdler will thaw and stun the Chillynilly so that it can be grabbed.

Butterjam

Spawn Conditions: Available from 4AM to 4PM in any weather.

You can find Butterjams flying around the mountain. To capture one, all you need to do is hit it with Peanut Butter, creating a PB&J sandwich, which you can then pick up off the ground with .

Mt Sodie

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

The Mt. Sodie can be found in the frozen pond at the lowermost level of the area. Unlike most Sodies, you can’t just place a trap in its path because the water will freeze the trap. Instead, place the trap at the water’s edge, stand inside it, and hit the Sodie with the Snakgrappler.

It will begin swimming towards you, spraying you with water. Once it gets close enough to be within the trap’s range, trigger the trap and collect the Sodie.

Chillynilly

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

You’ll find a Stewdler in the cave halfway up the mountain climb, but you’ll need to attempt to capture it at night, so that there is a Chillynilly in the cave too. Hit the Stewdler with some Chocolate Sauce to draw the Chillynilly down to it. The cold from the Chillynilly will extinguish and stun the Stewdler so that it can be grabbed.

Melty Snakpod

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

Head to the top of the mountain and look on the side of the tent. There you’ll find a Melty Snakpod. Grab it with or shoot it with the Snakgrappler to add it to your collection.

Instabug

Spawn Conditions: Available at any time in any weather.

This peculiar bug actually prefers your attention. Head up to the cave with the Noodler in it, and look for a shaking bush near the entrance. Place a trap next to it, and then use to bring out your camera. A quirky little Shishkabug will come out and lap up all the attention, but as soon as your camera goes away it will scuttle back into the bush.

Therefore, you’ll need to be ready to very quickly activate the trap as soon as you close the camera in order to capture the critter.
