All Final Fantasy IX Chocograph Locations
Finding these treasures is a bit tedious. Here are some tips to use when scanning the area for the treasure using the map in the photo above:
- The Chocograph's location (photo) should be on top of the mini-map for the Chocograph to spawn.
- If you don't have the required ability to get to the Chocograph, it will be greyed out in the menu.
- "Kweh" means you and your Chocobo are nowhere near the location in the photo of the Chocograph Location.
- "Kweh!?" and "Kwehhh!?" means you're near the treasure but not yet standing on top of it.
- "K-KWEHHHH!!!" means you're on top of the treasure.
Here's a table that encompasses all the general locations of the Chocographs as well as their corresponding rewards.

Although this quest is lengthy, it offers some of the rarest items you can get in Final Fantasy IX as a reward, such as the Ribbon and the infamous Genji Armor, one of the best recurring accessories in the franchise. As such, I encourage you to hunt for these Chocographs; doing so will immediately boost your party's strength and defenses.
