Journal Entry
Non-attacking Heartless that are rarely found. They like to jump, so helping them stay in the air may bring good things.
Ranks
The Rank items are obtained from Rare Truffles in Kingdom Hearts. They are proof that the player satisfied a Rare Truffle by bopping it into the air a set number of times, and have no purpose except bragging rights.
- Shiitake Rank: Bop the Rare Truffle into the air 50 times. Its resell value is a mere 100 Munny.
- Matsutake Rank: Bop the Rare Truffle into the air 100 times. Its resell value is a mere 500 Munny.
Strategy
The Rare Truffles indicate their desire to be in the air by constantly hopping around, and will richly reward anyone who can satisfy them. However, if they touch ground again after being launched into the air, they immediately depart. While they can be kept in the air with well-timed jumps and Keyblade combos, the easiest method of satisfying them is to herd one into a corner and then use an Aero spell. Touching the wind around Sora will launch the Rare Truffle into the air, and as long as it continues to fall onto this wind it will bounce back up, so the requisite 100 hits can be reached by simply staying beneath the Rare Truffle and recasting Aero as necessary.
Trivia
The Rare Truffle is the only Heartless in a Coliseum Cup to ever appear alone, excluding the boss Heartless, Behemoth.
