By the time you reach the Corel Region in , you're likely already familiar with the Phenomenon Intel found in each region, and Corel is no exception. This intel leads you on multipl💮e quests to seek a Protorelic piece, and in each region, there𒐪's typically a challenge to overcome before you can complete them.

The Phenomenon Intel becomes available after you reach the deserts to the south in this region. You'll receive a cal💛l from your favorite open-world intel buddy, Chadley, 🍎prompting you to go and investigate this new phenomenon!

This article is a work in progress, and we'll update it as soon as possible with the remaining infor🔯mation.

Corel Region - Phenomenon Intel 1: Modular Reactor 1

The very first Phenomenon Intel in the Corel region is marked on your map, located just south of the Gold Saucer. Upon approaching, a cutscene will trigger where you meet a Sand Gian🐼t also searching for the same Protorelic, but don't worry, you won't fight it.

Afterward, approach the house with the cactuses and interact with the door. You'll then be able to collect the cactuar statue next to ꧅the door, which will assist you in locating the cactuar rock.

Hold the up button on the d-pad and a light from the statue will guide you to the rock. However, since you're reading this guide, we'll direct you immediately. To the east of your location, you'll find a Chocobo Stop. Head right from there, and you'll see an entrance between the rocks.

Follow this path until you encounter cactuses, which will eventually lead you to the rock. Refer to the map picture f🌠or guidance if nไeeded.

When you're in front of the rock, hold the statue up once more before returning to the Modular Reactor. With that completed, you'll unlock the door at the first location. Enter, descend the ladder, and you'll find a goblin named Kid G, speak to him.

Next, you'll need to complete a mini-game called Cactuar Crush, playing as Yuffie. In this stage, you'll encounter two types of enemies: Gladiatuars, weak to physical damage, and Magituars, weak to magic.

Fortunately, Yuffie can deal both types of damage, so you will need to switch between her attacks depending on the enemies you encounter in each wave.

Occasionally, rainbow cactuars will appear; attacking them grants extra time.

Your objective is to defeat as many cactuars as possible to reach 1000 points, with Rank 1 being sufficient. Once completed, you'll receive the first piece of the Protorelic and the next location for the Phenomenon Intel.

Corel Region - Phenomenon Intel 2: Modular Reactor 2

For the second Modular Reactor, it will be marked on your map and located far east of the desert.

It will be the same process as before: interact with the d♏oor, obtain the statue, find the rock, and complete the mini-game.

Once you acquire the statue, they will indicate a beam to the northeast from your location. Head in that direction, where you'll find yellow ledges near some cactuses. Climb them and then use the grappling hook to reach the other ledges, which will lead you t🤡o the rock. Below is a map picture for ref♕erence.

After reaching the rock and interacting with it, return to the second Modular Reactor. Descend the ladder and speak to Kid G to complete the mini-game. However, this time, you'll play as Aerith, and it's a bit different.

With Aerith, you'll encounter two new enemies: white cactuars and black cactuars. In order to defeat them, you'll need to conjure the right ward—either Luminous or Shadow—and then use ranged attacks. Use Luminous for white cactuars and Shadow for black ones.

During this stage, Gladiatuars and Magituars will also spawn alongside the time cactuars. Deal with them in the same way as before: physical attacks for Gladiatuars and magic for Mag✨ituars.

Similar to the first mini-game, you only need to achieve a score of 1000 and complete Rank 1 to obtain the second piece of the Protorelic.

Once you've completed both mini-games, Kid G will inform you that the pursuit of the Phenomenon Intel will be paused until he contacts you again.

This won't happen until you reach Chapter 12! We'll update this guide as soon as we acquire the remaining two pieces🐎, kupo!
