Balancing two gigs is always a challenge, especially when one involves running a bustling sushi joint, and the other entails battling colossal sea creatures. Luckily, Dave the Diver‘s got a couple of friends to get him by – and no, I don’t mean Duff, Bancho, and Cobra. Beluga is the best pet a man with Dave’s profession can get, and one that, unlike GYAOs, doesn’t constantly demand attention. In this guide, I’ll show you how to find and cure the Beluga in Dave the Diver.

You can find the Beluga injured in the Glacial Area in Dave the Diver. To cure him, follow the Antarctic Octopus until he’s cornered and drops the antidote.

Before diving into the Glacial Area, make sure your diving gear can handle depths of up to 500 meters. You can find the Beluga in the maze on the west side of the map, nestled amidst the icy depths.

Enter the maze area and keep your eyes peeled for the Beluga lying on the icy floor. When you find it, a mission to save the Beluga from the clutches of an Antarctic Octopus begins.

As the Antarctic Octopus responsible for the whale’s plight appears, a thrilling chase ensues. This chase is filled with obstacles like falling icicles and poisonous ink puffs, so stay focused to avoid losing sight of the octopus as it tries to escape.

Your objective is to corner the octopus, preventing it from slipping away. Once you’ve caught up, the pivotal moment arrives with the choice to either Harvest or Rescue the octopus.

If you choose to rescue the Antarctic Octopus, you can get valuable rewards. At the end of the day, the octopus relinquishes the Antarctic Octopus Antidote along with a Jade Fish Statue. With these treasures in hand, head back to the Beluga you found in the maze.
