I’m a new player.
In the Harp and Bottle ingredient quest, there are mini-encounters before the boss fights and I captured the ingredient monsters that appeared there. Then I made sure to win both those mini-encounters AND the final boss fight to clear the quest.
I even got the Reward screens showing me the things I’ve caught after the battles and succeeding the quest.
But they don’t register for some reasons. After a while, I checked the Evolution screen and my monster List again, and the only ingredients that showed are the guaranteed ones you get when finishing the quest, the final battle ones.
Where do all my captured ingredients go then??
I understand that if you captured the ingredient then FLEE the battle, you won’t get them, but I made sure to win both those encounters and the final battle too, and despite the Reward screen showing that I’ve got Silver and every ingredients I caught, in reality the only thing that stick is the singular one you get at the end of the quest.
Items you get from those mini battles are not affected I think. I found a golden youth fruit during one and it’s still there after the quest finishes. Only captured monsters are affected it seems.
