How to catch
Cattiva Noct has a base capture rate of 18 out of 100. Weaken it below 30% HP and use a Hyper Sphere or better from behind for the best odds. Elemental advantage (Fire vs Grass, Water vs Fire, Grass vs Water, Electric vs Water, Ground vs Electric, Ice vs Dragon, Dark vs Neutral, Dragon vs Dragon) speeds the weaken step.

Work suitabilities & base role
Cattiva Noct is tagged for Farming, Medicine Production. Slot it into a base loop that stacks its highest work value — for example, an night-shift medicine bench line — and give it the Workaholic + Serious passives to squeeze out extra work speed.
Partner skill & mount notes
Cattiva Noct's partner skill "Void Pact" activates while it rides on your shoulder or is deployed. Its ride speed of 885 makes it a support-only rider — better as a base worker than a full-time mount.
