Enter the Research Facility at the extreme north and talk to Alyssa or Hope to move things along. Address Hope two more times for a Live Trigger: (Hope has traveled 400 years into the future. What should I ask him?) and then collect the Live Trigger Cube that appears on the right side of the room. Go back to Hope and align your camera so that you see the ledge on the bottom, and on that ledge is a treasure sphere! Aim Moogle Throw carefully to get the Platinum Casino Ticket .
To get the Silver Chocobo , align your Moogle Throw into the big sphere projection behind Hope. If you’re lucky, Silver Chocobo is yours! Keep trying until you get him. He is the best Sentinel in the game and is invaluable later on during post-game when you fight the super hard enemies.
Now talk to Alyssa two times to learn that Hope and Alyssa need several Graviton Cores in order to put their master plan to fruition. If you check with the receptionist at the front desk in the Entrance, she gives you details on seven Graviton Cores. You have to get five of them in order to progress with the game. If you talk with Hope one more time, he’ll tell you about the Chaos Crystal , which turns out to produce two amazing weapons for Serah and Noel, but you need to gather all 160 fragments for that power to be released. Now to hunt for the graviton cores’ locations!
