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

I think my system is too stuck. I have been on the blue dragonfly for almost a week and have yet to find it. I dont know if it disappeared or what. but I cant seem to move on ... please fix this

I just wish the achievements page would show how many toward the achievement, like most of the others do. Like 10/30 so we know how many more we need to find.

I'm wondering if the artist of the is a fan of the group Steam Powered Giraffe with that item description(its a line in their song Honeybee) lol

Well that was easy. :D

Had the bug (honeybee) in my inventory , it showed up when I went to her, but then when i submitted she said I didn't have it, and it disappeared from my inventory. Not sure if I should file a ticket or report a bug (ha ha ha)?

Um, can we have 30 spiders too? Please? C:

April 29, 2016, 8:12 pm by

Thank you! Glad to see you're on it already :)

Yeah, I realized a little too late there was just a daytime map for her! I’m just waiting for her to be added to the night time map to upload <3 For now you can easily click on the same area she was in during the day or use the link on “Check Out” on the front page of the news!

April 29, 2016, 8:01 pm by

The area isn't visible on the nighttime map of Delphi Beach :(

April 29, 2016, 8:00 pm by

Oh, thanks for letting me know! (also the other people that have posted here! Will look into this <3)

I found the bug but forgot to go to Delphi Beach to show Chimalma. I was playing Item Hunt when the server temporarily went down and when I refreshed, the bug showed up again! I deleted the second one but wanted to let you know in case it's a glitch.

April 29, 2016, 7:22 pm by

First a realistic bug species and now all these??? it's like you guys are speaking directly to my heart dgjnkdsjgn seriously I love these so much!! ty staff!!!

April 29, 2016, 7:06 pm by

It's like the Treasurefly's methed-out cousin.

April 29, 2016, 6:27 pm by

she's in delphi beach, click by the surfboards, in the daytime map she's visible but for the night map she isn't visible but the area is still clickable!

April 29, 2016, 6:26 pm by

Found it on the sidebar. Still have no idea where it really is though so I guess I'll be bookmarking it.

I have been looking for Chimalma for 15 minutes. The link doesn't lead to her, i couldn't find a link in the comments, i couldn't find anything on the forums, and i couldn't find anything with a google search. And somehow, apparently, I'm an idiot since literally nobody else seems to have this problem. FML. If anybody wants to tell me where Chimalma actually is, so I can actually play this game, I'd appreciate it.

This is really cute! Reminds me of when I had to catch actual insets for my class last semester~

I hope they add more critters!!! c:

You missed the chance for a Silence of the Lambs reference on the deaths head moth :(

April 29, 2016, 5:44 pm by

OH MY GOD YES. I AM SO STOKED ABOUT THIS YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW.

April 29, 2016, 5:43 pm by

ahh the art is lovely. i love catching bugs in animal crossing so i'll enjoy this here too.

April 29, 2016, 5:39 pm by

Not a bug fan but I like that we have something new to do, fun :)

April 29, 2016, 5:37 pm by

This is what you give me to work with ? Well honey, I've seen worse.

April 29, 2016, 5:33 pm by

Sweeeet! I've been looking forward to this so much since i saw the new bugs in the item directory. Love them all. Bug month is AMAZING!

April 29, 2016, 5:30 pm by

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS THIS TO ME SUBETA?!? Are you reading my mind-thoughts about me making a pet who loves insects?! cries

April 29, 2016, 5:19 pm by

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH AAAAAAAAA

April 29, 2016, 5:06 pm by

I ACTUALLY GET THE REFERENCE IN THE HONEYBEE DESCRIPTION.

Bees! Luna moths! Ahhhh!! 😍 Thank you!

April 29, 2016, 5:05 pm by

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "INVALID ITEM"!!? ;-; I just spent 20 minutes clicking every link and sub-link in the explore map, and my monarch butterfly was denied to me. I really like all the bugs, but not the computer bugs!

April 29, 2016, 4:42 pm by

THE BUGS THE BUGS THE BUGS ARE HERE my precious babies! I love everything about this

Also my first bug showed up on the bug quest acceptance page. Literally on Chimalmas face. <3

April 29, 2016, 4:39 pm by

I need to find

April 29, 2016, 4:34 pm by

so how do i find? are they floating or random events?

April 29, 2016, 4:32 pm by

April 29, 2016, 4:22 pm by

LOVE this! :D

April 29, 2016, 4:15 pm by

April 29, 2016, 4:11 pm by

Wheeeee! I ❤ Bug Month

April 29, 2016, 4:04 pm by

SCREAMING

WELL, guess Zalea is getting a lot more bugs! <3 Eeeee, this is fantastic!

April 29, 2016, 3:52 pm by

nods Yes, honorary bugs. I approve XD

April 29, 2016, 3:50 pm by

love these kinds of things!

April 29, 2016, 3:49 pm by

Nice Subeta. ^-^
I'm not into the whole bug thing you've been doing lately, but this little once daily bug catching that's going to be around through our summer is juusst right. 🌹

April 29, 2016, 3:41 pm by

is being able to find multiple of the bug a thing you can do because I found the slug she sent me to find shortly after starting, but then I forgot to go back to her, and found another? Is that supposed to be a thing we can do or is that an oversight?

April 29, 2016, 3:34 pm by

Oh, haha bugs...

So no Centropolis Green Project?

April 29, 2016, 3:29 pm by

It's not really part of Vesnali. We did it this month because of the overall ~~bug~~ theme~ :)

April 29, 2016, 3:28 pm by

Oh cool, I wasn't expecting a quest for this holiday.

April 29, 2016, 3:24 pm by

is 502/522 errors count as one bug or two bugs? :P sorry for the poor attempt at jokes.

April 29, 2016, 3:20 pm by

Hmm, I saw one of the kind she wanted but when I clicked on it I got an error message saying there was no record of the floating item. Hope it shows up again.

April 29, 2016, 3:20 pm by

hahahaha bugs on subeta what else is new hohoho no but real these are cool i need all of them except the slugs

April 29, 2016, 3:14 pm by
