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 don’t 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 don’t 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.

Ichthyosaurus are one of the weakest water tames, but their speed makes them a great utility tame. This guide will help you acquire one yourself.

1. Locate an accessible ichthy of the desired level, if you have no water tames, go for one near shore, preferably in a mostly cut off from the ocean body of water like a bay. Taming a very low level can allow you to increase your range of accessibility because you can swim far into the ocean so it can be a good idea when going for a high level.

2. Gather food, raw meat is good enough if you cannot get better food, however I would recommend prime, or mutton because they are relatively easy to get and they will give much more taming progress and lose very little effectiveness. Kibble can also be used if you have access to it, for a perfect tame.

3. The ichthy is a passive tame, so you will need to swim up to it to start taming it. As with every passive tame, the interval between feeding it a second time is very long, so you can either wait with it, or you can do something short, it seems to be around 10 to 20 minutes. After the second feed they will be low on hunger, and so you can feed them around every 15 seconds until they are tamed or full on hunger (which has never happened to me because of how much their hunger goes down when waiting for the second feed)

4. Ichthys will naturally swim towards and follow you when you get near, which makes taming them much easier. After staying with you, eventually they will swim away, however in my experience you delay this by periodically moving and having them follow you, instead of staying still. When they do start swimming away, exit the water instead of chasing them. This will make them stop avoiding you, and will make it so if you get close to them again, they will begin following you again. It is MUCH easier to try to cut them off rather than chase them to get close again to get them to follow you.

Happy taming!

O M G COOL TIP!(MOBILE PLAYERS)

Once you have tamed and Ichthy get a saddle, ride the ichthy and bam you see a meg does it aggro you? No. See a spino does it aggro? No. MOBILE PLAYERS GET A FREE WORLD TO THEMSELVES TO EXPLORE! With the ichthy. Beware if you get off the ichthy uhm, let’s just say if you were near an aggro to human creature it’ll attack you. Soooooo I hope you guys can officially explore your home island with the ichthy! (It works I did it)

Since there's no way to post it on the actual creatures wall I think I should warn everyone whilst taming these beautiful ichthyosaurus watch out and I mean watch out for any Cnidaria jellyfish they will shock you to oblivion I was caught taming when 4 of these guys jumped me and I absolutely freaked out

So yeah Cnidaria are easy to kill but keep your distance!

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 isn’t 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.
