How to unlock the Friendly Pointer achievement in MONSTER HUNTER: WORLD - Definitive Guide

This achievement is for capturing the Arrowhead gekko, a bright blue lizard with a triangular head. I found it in area 10 of the rotten vale near one of the crimson fruit plants, during the day (thanks Wildtreecko297 for pointing that out). I have also found them in the ancient forest and coral highlands multiple times during normal questing, day and night. They sometimes run away but they don't seem to disappear anywhere, so it should be an easy capture :)

I can confirm this works. It wasn’t there for me when I did an expedition nor was the fruit, but when I chose the Master Rank Event to collect the underground fruit that is in the video, it was there straight away

Might be worth noting - I have only found it during the one run I did of the event quest for delivering 20 fruits and I haven't seen it again so far

Quick general note that is unrelated to the achievement, you can see what time of day it is at any time without going outside in the top left corner of your screen, bottom left of the quest timer and directly left of your stamina bar is a little icon that tells you if its day, dusk, night, or dawn. on an expedition the quest timer will be this icon instead.

With that being said, it was day time when you caught the arrowhead gekko in your video.

Thanks man, can't believe I've never noticed that before lol, always do this stuff during expeditions normally. I haven't been able to find another, but it says it spawns on all the maps in the field guide too

As DJ RJester pointed out, it is guaranteed during the event quest "The Lord of the Underworld Beckons"

I also found one in wildspire waste area 5 at night during a flourishing cactus. It was on the way to the top of the rocks.

I can confirm what Kumekerion commented (actually I didn't read his comment previously).

To add on add on to the posts above the quest must be master rank, and it can be performed near any location of an upsurge collection point as I found mine in the ancient forest. West of Camp 11 when looking for the unique mushroom account item

To add on to the post above, I didn’t know time of day either, but the fruit in the video, in area ten, only spawns in Upsurge: Crimson Fruits. I found it there then, not when the fruit wasn’t there.

Again, during Upsurge: Crimson Fruit.
