With DualShockers, she specializes in crafting polished, informative, and enjoyable gaming guides that help pave a clear path for players and don't skimp on the details that matter most.

The debut of Itzaland in Infinity Nikki's 2.0 seasonal update brought with it an adorable smorgasbord of new creatures for players to discover across the enamoring landscapes of the region. Some of them are small enough to fit in the palm of Nikki's hand, while others tower among the trees of the forest.

Among those creatures are a variety of different animals that you can groom for valuable crafting materials. However, given Itzaland's size, it can be challenging to find them all. If you're missing an entry or two from your compendium, here's where to find all of Itzaland's animals in Infinity Nikki.

To groom animals in Infinity Nikki, you must unlock and equip the Grooming ability outfit (Bye-Bye Dust), which is obtained very early on in the game's main story (Chapter 1). Once you have that default ability outfit crafted and equipped, you can start grooming various animals for fur and feathers (any animal that has a brush icon above them).

Grooming also rewards you with points that can be used to unlock more ability-related nodes on your Heart of Infinity Grid. These nodes allow you to also gather Essence in tandem with the respective materials. That essence is necessary to craft various outfit pieces, including the coveted Miracle Outfits, so unlocking those nodes should be a priority.

Also, you don't necessarily need to use the Bye-Bye Dust outfit to keep grooming animals. Thanks to various outfit banners released during each of the game's seasons, there are alternative grooming outfits you can use to make the grooming experience more unique (or even more efficient). Examples are the Enchanted Encounter outfit (Playful Season) and the Breezy Tea Time outfit (Distant Sea permanent banner).

All Itzaland Animals in Infinity Nikki And Their Locations

The region of Itzaland in Infinity Nikki features an impressive number of animals for players to find. This pertains specifically to creatures that can be groomed for crafting materials. In all, there's a total of 22 animals in Itzaland, some more rare than others. For example, the Frostbough Behemoth is a one-of-a-kind that can only be found in one location and groomed once a day.

As you find and successfully groom each animal in Itzaland, its respective entry will be filled in your Creature Compendium, which you can check anytime via your Pear-Pal menu. Also, remember that you can track the general spawn locations for each animal via your map's tracker once you've found and groomed them at least once.

Furthermore, if you're in need of extra crafting materials from any of these animals, remember that you can also obtain them via your Dig, Pear-Pal feature or the in-game store's Resonance tab.
