Palico Statuses
Status/Training/Equipment
Support Biases
Support Biases dictate what kind of abilities a Palico has. Each Palico has their own Support Bias.
Palico Support Biases determine what kind of attacks and Support Moves a Palico excels at. For instance, a Palico with the Bombing Bias will favor bomb-based attacks and Support Moves.

Support Moves
While Palicoes and Prowlers cannot use items during a Quest, they can perform special actions. Support Moves come in a variety of types; some are offensive in nature, while others heal or support your friends.
Support Moves can be equipped from the Palico Board once they have been learned.
Learning Support Moves
- Have a Palico capable of learning a Support Move participate in a Quest
- Slay or capture the appropriate monster
- The Support Move will be unlocked, including for all other Palicoes

Level
The higher a Palico's level, the higher its Health, Attack, and Enthusiasm. A Palico can use more Support Moves and Palico Skills as their level increases.
Enthusiasm
High Enthusiasm gives your Palico bonuses when performing actions and using facilities. You can recover Enthusiasm by resting in a village or eating a meal.
Palico Equipment
Palicoes can equip weapons, and head and body armor. You can forge equipment for your Palico at the Palico Armory. To forge this equipment, you'll need special items called Scraps.
Scraps
Scraps are used to forge equipment for your Palico. You will sometimes acquire scraps when you forge or upgrade hunter equipment and complete Prowler-specific Quests, or you can exchange materials directly for scraps. The Meownster Hunters can also obtain scraps as rewards.
