Ok, so about a year or so ago, there was an update about a new quest released for marshlands chocobo racing... and they hinted (with a picture) at the chance to see the white chocobo~

So... anyone do it, and anyone see the elusive white chocobo? I've yet to hear anything about it, after the story came out...

I believe they put this on hold and then never released it in the end :(

There was an announcement about a week before it was due to be released that there was an issue with it, so they didn't release it at the scheduled time :(

I must admit, I am still remaining hopeful that this event will come around sooner or later, and when it does I'll be right there lol ^^

I'd forgotten about this completely. I wonder what happened.
I recently have been raising a second chocobo and actually improving it. It is quite fun. I have a killed digger chocobo! Now I want to race one but she is so slow lol.

It's the last choco race, the Dream Cup.

You all didn't notice how the other yellow chocos all have riding harnesses?

I didn't notice that. So, the white chocobo is the main opponent in the Dream Race? Interesting.
Really need to raise a racer chocobo now.

Yep. The other chocos are just their to use items to screw with your choco.

Imo... I thought it would have been REALLY cool if the prize for winning the race was a rare/ex chocobo egg that yielded....

wait for it....

a white choco!!!!
