• Pengulletwild Lv 2–45 near Icy Weasel Hill
• Noxwild Lv 4–19 near Isle of Murmurs

1. Catch a male and a female parent: one Pengullet and one Nox.
2. Build a Breeding Farm at your base and put both Pals on it.
3. Put a Cake in the farm's box. The parents lay an egg in that box.
4. Hatch the Dark Egg in an Egg Incubator: it is a Hoocrates.

No gender rule applies here: any male and female of the parent species work, in either order. The cake does not change the species. It changes the eggs: a Vegetable Cake lays 2 eggs per breeding, an Extravagant Vegetable Cake raises the mutation chance from 1% to 3%, and a Special Cake makes inheriting several passives (up to 4) much more likely. See the mutation calculator and the passive odds tool.
