Tips & Strategies

A Quick guide to quickly taming an itchy on mobile
1. Craft Dodo Kibble in the cooking pot(the recipe can be gotten from the fresh breakfast quest)
2. Obtain and follow the tame quest for the itchy
3. Clear the area of threats(these will mainly be mantas and megs)
4. Find an itchy using the map location from the quest
5. Feed it the kibble, this will instantly tame it
6. Complete the quest by naming it
7. Equip your new saddle to your new friend
So long as it isnโt fed raw meat, you will have a mount that is treated as neutral to all creatures, making it a good early fish meat harvesting mount.

If youโre on mobile and single player, donโt make a saddle! You get a free one after completing the tame icthy pursuit
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 donโt 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 donโt have much health nor do they do much dmg
To anyone who lose their tames and you can't find it.
Go to your stats (Or profile) and you'll see the tames. Click on the tames button and find your lost tame. Press it and click request and wait for a while. (For water tames BE in water otherwise they'll die.)
WARNING: ALL ITEMS IN A REQUESTED CREATURE WILL BE LOST.
Donโt kill jellyโs with this guy or heโs dead
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.
A bunch of these guys once protected me from a Megalodon and a Manta by swarming all around me to prevent my death...
If you wanna tame one of these beasts just go to Hervibore island and youโll find so many of them following basilosaurs I tamed 2 and Breeded them I got baby ichthyasaur but got killed by lvl 1 Meg and I killed it and got teeth.Up if good
I recommend taming one of these while riding something cause they like to say hi to tames so they will just be chilling right by you while you tame them

Do not try taming near any shoreline. Every time one takes my food, it immediately regrets human interactions and commits harikiri by touching land.
