Mountain Stream Grotto Guide: Pals, Bosses, and Loot
Updated 2026-07-22
Mountain Stream Grotto is the forest-region cavern — a repeatable dungeon whose entrances rotate around the woodland cliffs, packing level 20–23 Pals with a level 27–29 boss room at the end. It's a great mid-game loop for spheres, Silver Keys and skill fruits. Here's exactly what spawns inside, which boss you might draw, and what the chests hold. All the other caverns are on the List of All Dungeons.
Every Pal Inside Mountain Stream Grotto
These roam the corridors at level 20–23 — dark types dominate, so a Dragon Pal tears through most of this roster. Jelliette swims in the grotto's ponds.
| Pal | Elements | Best Work |
|---|---|---|
 Beegarde | Grass | Farming |
 Felbat | Dark | Medicine Production |
 Grintale | Neutral | Gathering |
 Katress | Dark | Handiwork |
| Loupmoon | Dark | Handiwork |

The Boss Room Pool
Each run ends in a boss chamber holding one oversized boss Pal from the pool below at level 27–29, usually flanked by two normal companions of the same species. Beat it and the exit chest can pay out Technology Books — including Ancient Technology Books.
