All eight ability locations

X/Y identifies rooms. The table puts landmarks and requirements on the same row; if you cannot reach a coordinate, check its prerequisites first.

Rebba’s seven- and 14-cartridge rewards

Cartridges change the screen palette, but also unlock two abilities from Rebba: Repeater at seven and Hopper at 14. Return to the NPC and claim the reward after reaching the count.

  1. Check your cartridge count.
  2. Visit Rebba in Nexus at X17/Y16.
  3. For 100%, return again after Tamagato and claim Hopper.
  4. Head to the final Incubator Healthkit.

Separate progression from full collection

Decoder opens the way into Incubator; Hopper is needed for the last Healthkit. Finishing the story alone does not require every cartridge for Hopper.

Coolant and Bigshot improve combat, but also count among the eight abilities to check for 100%.
