Welcome back to another Xenoblade Chronicles: Future Connected guide and this time, we’re covering the Collectopaedia.
Due to the fact there are only two main areas in Future Connected, (Bionis’ Shoulder and Alcamoth,) there are only two pages you will need to complete, with 20 specific collectables being required to fill out the first page and 8 collectables for second page.
Some collectables are harder to obtain than others, such as the Gentleclam as the collectables you gather, can be random, but there is a side quest nearer to the end of the game called “A Surefire Hit,” which actually tasks you with collecting gentleclams and will direct you to them, provided they’re currently available on the map.
There is also a second side quest called Hook, Line and Sinker, which makes it even easier to obtain multiple gentleclams.
All items required for completing the collectopaedia and their associated rewards can be seen detailed below:

We hope you found this guide helpful!
Yeah, well, you tell the name of the items, but you don’t actually tell us where exactly to find them.
That’s because the majority of the items typically appear all over the Bionis’ Shoulder, but the Gentleclams, which can appear in any body of water, is such a rare spawn, that the easiest way to get it, is during the Hook, Line and Sinker sidequest.
