Palico Amiibo

Palico is the standard-issue Felyne-class hunter companion of the Monster Hunter franchise, redesigned for the Rise-era Japanese identity and released March 2021 alongside Monster Hunter Rise on Switch. Palicos are the franchise's longest-running companion class since the original Monster Hunter on PlayStation 2: anthropomorphic cats in armor who handle the support-and-utility role.

Tap him on Rise or Sunbreak for the Palico Layered Armor unlock.

This is the first dedicated Palico amiibo Capcom and Nintendo have coordinated on. The franchise's longer Felyne history goes back two decades, but the 2021 figure is the figure-line's official one. Pairs naturally with Palamute as the Monster Hunter Rise companion duo. Display them adjacent and the hunter-and-companions narrative reads correctly. Get him for the Ninja-like Kamura armor.
