Training TimersThere are two timers for Chocobo training: one concerning the owner, one concerning every other players.
The owner timer means that every hour, the owner can train it's own Chocobo, no matter if someone else have trained it in the same hour or not.
The other players timer means that every hour, anyone can train your Chocobo, no matter if you have trained it in the same hour or not. This timer concern all the other players, meaning that two players can't train the same Chocobo, that is not theirs, in the same hour.
When a Chocobo goes in the stable, nobody except the owner can train it for the first hour.
Ranking Up in the StableIn the stable, Chocobos can't rank up. Once their experience bar is filled, their rank number shows in orange in the stable menu and a warning message willl tell anyone wanting to train it that no experience will be gained.
Once your Chocobo experience bar is full, in order to make it rank up, you have to take it back from the stable and call it in a battle you would gain experience from.
If you are already maximum level and wants to give experience to your Chocobo, there is two options: either you can do FATEs with your Chocobo, or you can battle ennemies whose level are down to 10 yours (i.e. if you're level 80 you can battle level 70 ennemies and your Chocobo will get experience).
