Sharing Chocobo Companion's observations

Bump for great justice!

From what I can tell chocobo exp its just from fighting mobs.
Once you unlock the fighting chocobo you can summon him/her at any lvl. Started my THM and having a choco to pitch in helps a lot
Only managed to unlock 3 skill points so far.
Also it's been posted that the SP's are limited, so you can't fill every skill. You have to choose what you want your chocobo to be.

Well I got my Chocobo companion to Rank-4 today. The only way that I found to make it level is by chaining mobs which were +1/+2/+3 in level to me. I can usually get chain #5 during the farming. Your Chocobo companion doesn't appear to get XP from Fates or Quest turn ins. The design behind the whole Chocobo companion would be perfect if there were no Fates in the game. No one will be grinding their way to multiple 50s by justing farming mobs.
