In-game text The whistle's item text says its high tone can only be picked up by a chocobo trained from birth to answer it.
Title reference The title plays on My Little Pony, the toy horse line. Chocobos are the Final Fantasy stand-in for horses, so this is your own 'little pony'.

Mimigun

Want a bird issued, you say? Then I'll need to see your Flame Chocobo Issuance.

Chocobo

Kweh!

Name Your Chocobo

Name

Names must be between 2 and 20 alphabetic characters.

You wish to carry out your duties swiftly, do you not? Well then, perhaps you should get yourself a chocobo.

If you're interested, the Immortal Flames will furnish you with one. It's not a complex process, but it does require some paperwork.

First, speak with the quartermaster to obtain a Flame Chocobo Issuance. You'll need to exchange company seals in order to do so. Once you've received your issuance, show it to Mimigun by the Gate of Nald. He'll be the one to furnish you with a bird.

If you wish to acquire your own personal chocobo, you'll need to get a Flame Chocobo Issuance from the quartermaster. Show the deed to Mimigun at the stables, and he'll furnish you with your own bird.

Mimigun

Yes, everything appears to be in order.

A moment please. I'll be right back with your chocobo.

And here he is! The fellow has been in high spirits the past few bells. He must have sensed that his master was coming!

Now then, to make it official, you'll want to give your noble steed a name.

Want a bird issued, you say? Then I'll need to see your Flame Chocobo Issuance. You can get one from the Flame quartermaster, over at the Hall of Flames.

  • DE Dann muss ich erst mal deine Chocobo-Lizenz der Bruderschaft sehen. ‘Then I'll first need to see your Brotherhood chocobo license.’ English asks for the Flame Chocobo Issuance; German asks for the Brotherhood's chocobo license.
  • DE Diese kannst du bei der Quartiermeisterin erhalten, drüben im Abaton der Bruderschaft. ‘You can get it from the quartermaster, over in the Abaton of the Brotherhood.’ English sends you to the Hall of Flames; German sends you to the Abaton of the Brotherhood.

Of course, you will need to exchange Flame Seals for it. You can earn these by completing tasks for the Immortal Flames, Ul'dah's Grand Company.

Now then, to make it official, you'll want to give your noble steed a name.

Heh heh! I daresay he likes his name!

Here is your very own chocobo whistle. Simply blow into it, and your feathered friend will come bounding to your side.

But do forgive him if he doesn't respond when summoned in crowded city areas or monster-infested lairs. Chocobos are stout-hearted creatures, but they have their limits.

And lastly, I present you with your chocobo rider's license, as is required by law.

And that concludes all the formalities! I wish you and your chocobo long years of fulfilling companionship!
