Bug Catching with Chimalma









Quote by Chimalma
The sun is shining, the sea is lapping at the beach, and I don’t think I ever want to leave my town! Except, well, there’s one thing I miss. Growing up, I was super into bugs! Their colors, their shapes, they way they moved - they’re awesome! They definitely inspired my style and work ethic. But, well, you just don’t see a lot of them in Delphi. Not the really nice ones!


Help Chimalma at Delphi Beach by catching the bugs she asks for.

How do you catch bugs? Easy! Once you offer to help her, you’ll find the bug you’re look for floating around the site. Click the bug and bring it back to her! Chimalma is nice enough to let you keep the bugs you show her. Unlike bird watching, there are no area specific bugs, so you can find the bugs anywhere around the site.

You can only help her once a day, so remember to visit her every day. There’s an achievement in it for you if you catch all 30. Bug Catching will be around until the end of August!



The first time you agree to help Chimalma out, she will give you one copy of Bugs As Inspiration for free. If you want another copy, you’ll have to buy it from the Millionaire Center

Well, it’s on the news page (on the “Check Out”), so if you check the news everyday at least you’ll see it! Did you have multiple windows open? The bugs float like flowers, to where if you click it but have other windows open that might have a bug/flower in it, it won’t give it to you on the earlier page. :x

I need so so many ;o;

it would also be nice to have a "set alert" option as I'm definitely surely absolutely gonna forget about going there everyday

Your reward is basically the bug you find! She cycles through asking for all of them. You get an achievement for getting all 30 (which has a forum title and item prize). The book is also sort of considered a prize?

You get to keep the bug :) She really just wants to see bugs again, because she misses how many bugs were native to Omen Islands!
