* DoH too low
* Didn't finish A Nutty Initiation (he has it in his Completed list)
* Need to have beast quests open in general (he has rank 3 with a couple of the ARR tribes and Neutral with the others).
* Kupo Nuts (not even a serious proposal)
* Insufficient MSQ progress (he's at "enter the Aetherochemical Complex" like the rest of the group)

All that seems to be left is that there's another side quest that none of the online guides and wikis have noticed is a requirement. I wish the OP on this thread had actually DETAILED their solution six years ago.

There shouldn't be any other requirement for getting Protecting the Pom other than completion of A Nutty Initiation.

By any chance, does your friend have A Moogle by Any Other Name in their quest log? It's part of the Moogles in the Sky quest chain, which I noticed you said your friend had done at least the first quest.

Mogloo is also involved in that quest so it could be it would need to be either abandoned or completed before Mogloo can give them Protecting the Pom. It's not an actual prerequisite quest, just one of those instances where the same NPC being involved in multiple quests will block progression on others if one of those quests is active.
