Palicoes
Main Palico and Sub Palico
You can bring one Main and one Sub Palico with you on a Quest. If you want to bring Palicoes with you on a Quest, your first one must be your Main Palico. A second, Sub Palico can be selected from the Palicoes you have recruited.
Main Palicoes are created when you first start the game and create your character. They are with you from the very beginning of the story.

Recruiting and Dismissing Sub Palicoes
Recruiting
Sub Palicoes can be discovered while on a Quest or received from other players. There are also special downloadable Palicoes that you can recruit.
You can scout Wild Palicoes by talking to them. Wild Palicoes that you have scouted will appear at the end of the quest, and you'll be given the choice of whether to recruit them or not. (If you abandon a quest, you cannot recruit any Palicoes.)
*Wild Palicoes only appear during a quest in solo mode.

1st Stringers and Reserves
Except for your Main Palico, you can set Palicoes to be either 1st Stringers or on Reserve.
1st Stringers
You can assign Palicoes to special training or to accompany you on quests while in your house or on Sunsnug Isle. You can set up to five 1st Stringers at one time. Sub Palicoes who are on your 1st Stringer list can affect the Forte of your Main Palico.
Reserves
While they won't be training or accompanying you on quests, Palicoes on reserve can help you in other ways on Sunsnug Isle. Palicoes on reserve will have their equipment removed and sent to the Palico Box.
