Finding Toadette

Before you can find the Toad Brigade, you need to find Toadette. She shows up at the beginning of Fur Step Island after you’ve collected 50 cat shines and defeated Fury Bowser. That is to say, after you “beat” the game. Bowser’s Fury has 100 cat shines, but you only need 50 to fight Bowser for the final time.

After that’s done, return to Fur Step Island to find Toadette. She’ll tell you that the Toad Brigade has gone missing around Lake Lapcat, and that it’s up to you to find them. Each Brigade member you find will award you with a cat shine for your troubles.

Captain Toad

Captain Toad is the easiest of the group to find. Head toward Scamper Shores, and you’ll see Captain Toad being chased by a group of enemies on a small island near the gate. Pick them off, and Captain Toad will reward you with a shine.

Yellow Toad

Yellow Toad is under Slipskate Slope in the second section of the game. Head to the start of Slipskate Slope, but instead of jumping in the ice skate, jump into a propeller block. Using the ledge, go to the end of the blue spikes and jump down, using the propeller block to float. You’ll spot Yellow Toad on a ledge under the slope.

Land and interact with him, and he’ll reward you with a shine.

Green Toad

The Green Toad is the trickiest to find because he’s not attached to any level. He’s located on the outskirts of the map, actually, as far north as you can possibly go. Given the poor draw distance in Bowser’s Fury, you won’t be able to spot Green toad from far away. Head as far north as possible toward the ink, and if you don’t spot Green Toad, follow the edge of the map.

Once you’re there, you’ll find a series of springs that you’ll need to use to cross over the ink. A cat suit can help here, but as long as you’re careful with aiming, you shouldn’t have too many problems. Green Toad is just stranded, not harassed by enemies. Interact with him and his new cat friends to earn a shine.

Blue Toad

Blue Toad is easy to find, but he’s stranded on one of the hardest levels in Bowser’s Fury: Mount Magmeow. If you haven’t already, make sure to earn the first shine on Mount Magmeow. The first shine doesn’t actually send you up the mountain, and Blue Toad is stranded on the peak.

After you have the first shine down, follow the mountain up until you’re between the two ears. Below the ear opposite where you come up the mountain, you’ll find Blue Toad being harassed by a Conkdor. Jump down and pounce on the Conkdor, and Blue Toad will reward you with a shine.

What do you get for finding the Toad Brigade in Bowser’s Fury?

Unfortunately, you don’t get anything for finding the Toad Brigade in Bowser’s Fury, outside of the cat shine each member gives you and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment. However, you can circle back to Fur Step Island to find the whole group happily reunited.

Where to farm Zonite in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Link with a created mining rig in Tears of the Kingdom.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild introduced many survival elements into the Zelda formula, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom only expands on those concepts. Things like cooking and crafting return in new-and-improved forms, but what hasn't changed much is the need to gather tons and tons of resources. From food to materials, weapons, and ores, Link's pockets will quickly become jam-packed with these materials. Zonite is a new form of resource that is vital for anyone who is enjoying the new Ultrahand ability and creating all types of wacky vehicles and contraptions. If you're hitting the limit on your creations due to a lack of Zonite, here are the best places to farm it in Tears of the Kingdom.
What is Zonite?
Zonite is tied to the ancient Zonai and their technology, which you will be using to build various machines in Tears of the Kingdom. Zonite itself is a material you can collect that, when you have enough, can be used with a Forge to make one of two things: Zonite Charges or Crystallized Charges. Zonite Charges are used to immediately refill any Energy Cell's power, while Crystallized Charges expand those Energy Cells' maximum capacity.
Best places to find Zonite

The best places to find Zonite, like any raw material, are down in the Depths. Here are a few hotspots we've found to have a good supply for you to plunder.
Great Abandoned Central Mine
The Great Abandoned Central Mine is an easy spot to recommend for farming Zonite since it is quite easy to access. You can find it at coordinates -0728, -1860, -0503. Simply drop inside with a hammer or explosives and break the deposits to gather up the Zonite.
Lindor Canyon Mine
If you've drained the Central Mine clean, Lindor Canyon Mine is another spot rich in Zonite. You can find it at the coordinates -2004, 1310, -0715.
Enemies in the Depths
If you're not as much into mining, another method for getting Zonite is to collect it from enemies in the Depths. While not every enemy drops this material, plenty do, so fighting off these tougher enemies can be worth your time. Korok Grove, found at 006, 2521, -0623, has two encampments to raid if you're feeling up to the challenge.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Nopon Coins guide: what they do and how to farm them
Reveal of a titan in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

JRPGs love to create their own terms for just about everything. Currency, spells, abilities, classes -- you name it and a JRPG will rename it. In Xenoblade Chronicles 3, not only do they have all those previously mentioned mechanics to learn but also two types of currencies. Thankfully, these aren't the types that have invaded more predatory games which have one in-game currency and another you need to spend real money on, but rather one special type that is much more difficult to come by.

Nopon Coins are not only a rare, but very useful, currency you will want to collect as much of as possible, but is even further divided into two sub-types. There's a ton of stuff to do in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and only certain activities will payout with these rare coins. If you want to know everything you can do with Nopon Coins and the best way to farm them in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, check out our guide.
