Dimension Rod Guide

BASICS

Firstly, obviously you will need both a Red and Blue Dimension Rod to capture the entire library. Unfortunately it also seems that the Gaust Volumax and Conbransha are no longer obtainable. However this is currently only speculation, as there may be another way to obtain the lures for these two Gaust, but this is being tested.

I would suggest that the optimal way to capture Gaust up until Rank 5 is to use a Partner Gaust with the elemental advantage over your opponent. The Elemental Chart is as follows.

Water is effective against Fire

Earth is effective against Water

Poison is effective against Earth

Steel is effective against Electricity

Wind is effective against Poison

Fire is effective against Steel

Electricity is effective against Ice

Ice is effective against Wind

NOTES

After reaching Rank 5, the best way to battle would be to capture Ammocrusado (Blue) or Genocidon (Red) as they can be itemized for the Legend Arrow. This item will take out half of the opponent's remaining HP. The strategy then is to lower your opponent to half HP and then use the arrow. This will allow you to finish them off. Elemental Advantages will still deal the same amount of damage as the Legend Arrow, but since you can only keep 3 Beasts in your E-Case, you won't always have the elemental advantage. The Arrow is more convienent in that way.

Some Gaust have special conditions you need to meet to capture them. Those Gaust will be marked with a ! before their names. These Appendix will be found at the bottom of the list.

Some Gaust can be itemized for unique items. These Gaust will have a ? before their name. See the bottom for what they drop.

Also please note that while you can trade lures over from red to blue and vice versa, there are some gaust that are literally exclusive to one version as they appear with the exact same lure, and what appears is version dependant. However don't worry, by having the devices do a VS match, you can add those exclusive Gaust to your Library.

To find a specific Gaust, go to it's entry, set your sonar level to the one required and then follow the instructions.

Anyway without Further Ado, let's go!

(!) GAUST WITH SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

I-HAWK - I-Hawk is part of a club I like to call 'Timed Encounter Gaust.' A lot of people often wonder how it is that you capture I-Hawk because it never seems to show up at the time it's supposed to. This is because I-Hawk is a timed encounter. In order for it to appear, you must set up the required lure, in this case the Rocket Lure, one minute before the scheduled appearance time and then not touch the unit. When the clock ticks over to 12:15, assuming you didn't set up the lure too late, I-Hawk will appear! Be careful though, you only have 1 chance a day to catch it. PRIMA PEARL, MERMAID, LAPTLER, WETMAN, BOMARK, BERMUDASS, MAGTAURS, RODEOS and ENRYUKI are obtained by this method also with their lures and times.

CROCONILE - Croconile appears in Battle World 4. If you complete the sequence battle, you will catch Croconile. The password to unlock Battle World 4 is 23655.

MOONDRAN - Moondran appears in Battle World 5. If you complete the sequence battle, you will catch Moondran. The password to unlock Battle World 5 is 91417.

VOLUMAX - Secret Lure 4 seems to only appear via communication with the Treasure Gaust Station. However this item is shrouded in mystery. Consider it unobtainable for now.

PLATINUM PAPILLION/FESTIVAL SHARK/TOMBOMBER/SNOW MOAI - These Gaust are pretty unique in that they only appear in certain seasons. They will only appear in the season stated in their Time section, and will appear many times throughout the day. They are not lured by anything, so these appearances are the only way to catch em!

RICE CAKE CRAB - This Gaust only appears on New Year's Day. It appears several times throughout that day, but this is the only time you can catch it!

COINOBOLIN - This Gaust only appears on Children's Day. It appears several times throughout that day, but this is the only time you can catch it!

HITODAMAN -This Gaust only appears on Bon Festival. It appears several times throughout that day, but this is the only time you can catch it!

JINGLE REINDEER - This Gaust only appears on Christmas Day. It appears several times throughout that day, but this is the only time you can catch it!

COBRANSHA - Secret Lure 3 seems to only appear via communications with the Gaust Station. However this item is shrouded in mystery. Consider it unobtainable for now.

GAUSMAN - Gausman will only start appearing after you have caught 60 Gaust.

KORODRAGON - Korodragon appears in Battle World 6. If you complete the sequence battle, you will catch Korodragon. The password to unlock Battle World 6 is 49365.

KING GAURUS/KAIZER GAURUS - Gaurus will only start appearing after you have caught 90 Gaust.

(?) GAUST WITH SPECIAL DROPS

GOTCHA - Itemized for the Hi Power Reel. It's pretty useless as it provides so little extra power.

BOMARK - Itemized for Secret Lure 1. This allows you to capture Magencerberus.

RODEOS - Itemized for Secret Lure 2. This allows you to capture Skull Rod.

TORNADIA/IFRIDUS - Itemized for the Legend Net. It's a weaker Legend Arrow, and isn't that useful to be honest.

FLAME JOE - Itemized for TR Lure Blue. This allows you to capture the 6 other Blue Legendary Gaust.

BIG WAVE - Itemized for TR Lure Red. This allows you to capture the 6 other Red Legendary Gaust.

AMMOCRUSADO/GENOCIDON - Itemized for the Legend Arrow. This is a must-have Item. it will make capture much easier. See Notes for more info.

CROCONILE/MOONDRAN - Itemized for the Special Lure. Allows you to capture Anchorman (Red) and Zerkman (Blue)

KORODRAGON - Itemized for the Coro Lure. Allows you to capture Ele Penguin (Blue) and Skull Tsuchinoko (Red)

KING GAURUS/KAIZER GAURUS - Itemized for the Motor Reel. It's very powerful but probably not the best item in the game. Try it for yourself.
