Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2

The player may receive a bad egg as their starting monster. It is, along with the capsichum, one of the only starting monsters that can't be scouted later and must instead be synthesized (e.g. mixing a ghost with a komodo). Bad eggs can still be seen outside of battle, dwelling in the hades condor nests in Cragravation, but cannot be fought. The bad egg is a Rank F monster.
