Parade Chocobo - He Wears A Crown But He's No King.

That would only make sense if there was an abundance of them. Parade Chocobo is the rarest mount in the game. So the regular Fat Chocobo is the lazy man's Parade Chocobo. XD

I think you might have misunderstood me. When I said poor man's chocobo, i meant in terms of monetary value (Free VS paid). You can either suck it up and grind for those 3000 commendations to get the mount for free, or you can plunk down a few bucks to get a similar version right now.
