Where to find and recruit Poshul
Poshul is the first character that can be recruited in Chrono Cross, and there are two ways to recruit her. The first method involves presenting Poshul with her favorite meal—aHeckran Bone. This must be done while Serge is still inHome World, however, and should be done before collecting Komodo Scales at Lizard Rock. To find the bone, first, make sure you’re inArni Villageand head to the hut closest to the village’s exit, inside of which you’ll find a restaurant calledWild Hungryman.

Poshul’s abilities
This sassy canine companion uses her paws in combat, relying on her high strength stat to deal some hefty damage. Herinnate element is Yellow, the elemental color closely associated with earth and lightning, meaning she’ll benefit the party most when facing off against opponents with aninnate Green element. When using theK9-Ball tech,Poshul curls her body into a ball before launching herself into opponents, ricocheting between them like a pinball.
TheDoggy Dunnittech allows Poshul to harness a swirling cyclone of Yellow energy, then launch it toward foes to flatten them into the ground. Poshul is a fantastic character to recruit early on due to her high health and attack stats, and her innate element of Yellow makes her a viable threat to any Green enemies you encounter. If you’re looking for an adorable canine companion, make sure to recruit her before it’s too late!
