    Unless I'm mistaken, there are still four pieces of swimwear introduced by the patch that have not yet been found. The Coronal Summer Halter, the Tei Leaf Lei, the Red Summer Pareo, and the Red Maro. I would be very surprised if these weren't obtained from some Big Fish.

    I've Had a few theories about potential fish that could hold the other swimwear

    Shark tuna: because the lei are tropical themed Costa seems like a potential location. I have only managed to catch one of these so far though and it failed D:

    Big Octopus: seeing as Octomamoth was blue and gave the blue leg pieces I thought the red octopus might provide similar results, another thing to note is although this isn't a green rated 2 star it gives me a lower synth % than the Gigashark or Octomamoth. However I have desynth'd 4 of these with no swimwear so far.

    I am also interested in desynthing Frilled Sharks but have yet to find any.

    So, here's the story. A group of Miq'ote tourists went out on a cruise into dangerous, shark-infested waters. They weren't afraid though, because a totally legitimate goblin merchant sold them some magical swimwear before they left. She told them that the swimsuits were enchanted to be 100% shark-proof, and they had a Scholar check them out just to be sure. Sure enough, the Scholar confirmed that the suits were definitely enchanted, and that they had a shark-immunity enchantment on them.

    So, on their voyage, the tourists decided to go swimming with the gigantsharks. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity! Literally. They went out once and were all eaten by sharks. It turns out, the swimwear was 100% shark-proof. Unfortunately, this protection did not extend to the wearer, just to the clothing. You can still find, amid bone chips and fine sand, pieces of this magical swimwear within the stomachs of gigantsharks. To this day, the magical protections in the swimwear prevent the sharks from digesting them and they are too large to pass as waste through the shark's system.

    And that is why you find swimwear inside of sharks and other Big Fish. True story!


    EDIT: Oh, and the reason you sometimes can find pieces of Waterproof Cotton instead of complete swimwear? It turns out that some of the poorer tourists couldn't afford the expensive enchanted clothing on top of the price of the cruise, so they went with a back-alley budget merchant (who was also totally legitimate) who sold them swimwear made from enchanted, shark-proof cotton... except, that's all that was shark-proof. The rest of the swimwear (such as the stitching and lining and so on) were made of the cheapest materials available and fell apart shortly after the tourists.
