How to unlock the Uncanny Expertise achievement in Chained Echoes - Definitive Guide

I did this at the end of the game because by then I had defeated enough monsters that they were all listed in the beastiary. If you look in your beastiary, next to some of the monster's names there's a can symbol. If the can is grayed out, you've already canned it (meaning Tomke has eaten it). If the can symbol is fully colored, you need to go find the monster and use Tomke's Uncanny Encounter skill on it. The beastiary should also list the location of each monster.

List:
Boxfly - Rohlan Fields
Saliva - Rohlan Fields
Sewerdiver - Narslene Sewers
Alphoarn - Kortara Mountain Range
Titan Elemental - Kortara Mountain Range
Vin - Fiorwoods
Seahorse Knight - Leviathan's Trench
Ice Devil - Mt. Rydell
Terror Terrier - Phyon Oasis
Adamant Crab - Arkant Archipelago
Ancient Turtle - Flying Continent Shambala
Golem - Empyrean Ruins
Blemmyae - Magic Academy Nhysa
Phantom - Magic Academy Nhysa
Croapier - Narslene Sewers

There is also an accessory "can machine" for Tomke that modifies his skill to "enemies can be canned at 50% max hp". You find it as a buried treasure on Shambala near a giant chain link.

To add: This achievement is a little difficult towards the tail end of the game, as you'll 1-hit most of the earlier enemies. Use only Amalia and Tomke in your party. Cres (Amalia's dog) will do minor damage every time Amalia has a turn. Simply use the "defend" option until the enemy has been weakened enough to use the Uncanny Encounter skill.

to add to gallant you can also remove equipment to weaken your characters. Boxfly was still a 1 shot for the dog without doing so (for me at least)

@reineldinho1981 I think quite easily as missing enemies you can find in bestiary, would be nice to add exact location for these. I.e. I played it at the end of the game and strugling to find some of them :)

Tomke is a unique ally who will learn new skills by "eating" enemies in battle. You can level up his Uncanny Encounter skill so that the enemy can have more health and still be eaten, but I think they need to be at 40% or lower with it maxed out. When you are going for the weakest enemies on the list you may need to use skills that should be piggybacked off something else (like Mikah's attacks) and use the piggyback move without using the setup move, as it then does like 20% of its damage instead. Later enemies can be weakened with normal attacks. The guide in the Road Map has all their locations as do the following two videos: Part 1 | Part 2.

It is necessary for the Tomke character to use the Uncanny Encounter skill (the monster's health level must be below 40%) and absorb the monster's ability. List of monsters by location:
  • Rohlan Fields: Boxfly, Saliva;
  • Narslene Sewers: Croapier, Sewerdiver;
  • Kortara Mountain Range: Alphoarn, Titan Elemental;
  • Fiorwoods: Vin;
  • Leviathan's Trench: Seahorse Knight;
  • Mt. Rydell: Ice Devil;
  • Phyon Oasis: Terror Terrier;
  • Arkant Archipelago: Adamant Crab;
  • Flying Continent Shambhala: Ancient Turtle;
  • Empyrean Ruins: Golem;
  • Magic Academy Nhysa: Blemmyae, Phantom.
