Tips & Strategies
Easy enough to tame that you don't need to trap it.
They're attracted to players and especially tames, so using anything from a turtle to a mosa makes taming them easy. They may swim off, but are easy to magnet back onto your tame.

How to raise an itchy
1. Go into the water for a good swim and see what you can find one
2. Once you see one it might swim up to you and hug you
3. Obtain meat to feed the marine reptile
4. Begin feeding the reptile WARNING: there is a bug that when they are hugging you they glitch and get you stuck and you could very well drown doing this so be careful.
5. Once tamed craft a saddle for it. It is fairly easy to craft the itchy saddle
Uses of the itchy when tamed:
1. They are extremely agile and swim faster than any other aquatic tame
2. For mobile players: they donβt get aggravated on by anything
3. They are so fast they do a full rotation around the island in less than 3 in game days
Weaknesses of the itchy when tamed:
1. They donβt have much health nor do they do much dmg
If youβre on mobile and single player, donβt make a saddle! You get a free one after completing the tame icthy pursuit
A bunch of these guys once protected me from a Megalodon and a Manta by swarming all around me to prevent my death...
Best for killing scorpions on bottom of ocean floor since they don't take torpor. Scorpions down there will knock any other animals out. Once you kill it, hit it with a pickaxe to gather black pearls. Very useful for the next update with tek gear.
!!!find any animal you may have lost on mobile !!!!!!
Go to your profile and it should say tames _/_ tap that and then it will show you all the animals youβve tamed that are alive. Then go to the one you lost and hit request! Hope this helps anyone who needs it.
Tame it at herbivore island, there is a circle in the middle of the island where there are alot of them and they are trapped so it is easy to tame
They nuzzle up to you for an easy start to a game but tend to wander off after a while. It is best if you trap it in a walled off area while it follows you for an easy tame
For the guy that said "admit it this was your first ocean tame" no it wasn't the megalodon i tamed this evening was my first ocean tame the reason I didn't tame these thing is cuz they are always around sharks and mantas when i go to the herb island i knocked one and kill the rest and there was one and i didn't tame it cuz is a pretty low level
