Golden Sun: The Lost Age - Djinni Locations (1 - 9)
This page has the locations of the first 9 Djinn in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. I've included a little bit of information with each Djinni as well as screenshots of where the Djinni is and anything else that you need to see (like the puzzle to get the Djinni).
If you don't see the Djinni that you want on this page then check out the next part of the guide - the Djinni you want will probably be there. For those of you who are playing the original Golden Sun and want the Djinni Locations for that game check out my Golden Sun Djinni Locations Guide for that information.
(Part 1) Djinn 1 - 9 Locations
(Part 2) Djinn 10 - 19 Locations
(Part 3) Djinn 20 - 29 Locations
(Part 4) Djinn 30 - 39 Locations
(Part 5) Djinn 40 - 48 Locations
(1) Echo - Venus Djinni (Overworld)
The first Djinni of the game will automatically join your party the moment you leave the first town, Daila. When you exit Daila to the south Echo will approach you and force his way into your party. He'll also give you a tutorial if you've forgotten anything about how the Djinni in this game work!
(2) Fog - Mercury Djinni (Kandorean Temple)
You'll encounter this Djinni inside of Kandorean Temple - towards the end of the dungeon. In order to get this Djinni you will need to complete the dungeon and get the Lash Psynergy skill. Once you have Lash stand next to the nail with the rope around it in front of the Djinni and use Lash. Doing this will connect the rope to the nail in front of the Djinni and give you access. Battle the Djinni and beat him to make him join your party!
(3) Breath - Jupiter Djinni (Shrine of the Sea God)
In order to capture this Djinni you'll have to first chase it around the dungeon and then corner it. When you reach the location shown in my screenshot above you'll want to push the torch north to block the exit route for the Djinni. Since it won't be able to jump over this flame you can safely approach the Djinni and then engage it in battle. Win the battle and it will join your team.
(4) Cannon - Mars Djinni (Dehkan Plateau)
You'll run into this Djinni as you progress through the Dehkan Plateau dungeon. When it's in the room pictured above you will have to drop down from outside and hit it so you can get the Pound Cube item. This item is required to progress through the rest of the dungeon. Once it drops the Pound Cube you will have to keep chasing it through the dungeon to catch it.
The next room you'll find Cannon in is pictured below. He will jump across the pillars in this room to avoid you unless you use Pound on the solid stone pillar to lower it. Trap Cannon on the left hand side like you see in my picture below and then you can engage him in combat and capture him!
(5) Iron - Venus Djinni (Overworld)
Wide view of the area that Iron is found
Our next Djinni is found on the Overworld southeast of the Gondowan Cliffs area. If you run around in this area there is a nearly 100% chance you will encounter this Djinni in a random encounter. My advice if you're having trouble finding this location is travel southeast of Gondowan Cliffs until you hit the river in my picture above. This river is kind of distinct and is the best nearby landmark.
(6) Blitz - Jupiter Djinni (Yampi Desert)
Blitz is found in the Yampi Desert, in order to reach the platform with him you'll have to use the Pound Psynergy tactically. Basically what you have to do is Pound down three pillars to reach the Djinni - the catch is you can't Pound down the two pillars that you need to jump across to reach him. If you mess up all you have to do is exit the area to reset the puzzle.
If you're struggling with this puzzle, find Blitz and then exit the map due west of him. Enter the map again and Pound down the pillar immediately to your north - go through the gap and travel northwest from here. Just above Blitz you'll find another pillar to Pound down; there will be one more pillar north of this one that we need to Pound down too. This final pillar will reveal a spot on the wall we can climb up - from here we can make our way over to Blitz by jumping across pillars that we left up. Assuming you followed my instructions you'll have no problem reaching Blitz now.
(7) Spark - Mars Djinni (Mikasalla)
To obtain Spark in Mikasalla you'll need the Scoop Psynergy which you get from Yampi Desert first. After you have it head over to Mikasalla and use Scoop in the bottom left hand corner of town, in the animal farm area pictured above. This will uncover a ladder which will lead you straight to Spark, the Mars Djinni.
(8) Sour - Mercury Djinni (World Map)
Sour is found as a random encounter on the World Map; once you're in the same area you see in my screenshot above run around until you get into a battle. You can find this Djinni directly south of the Osenia Cavern dungeon - that's the dungeon you see at the top of my picture above (use this as a landmark). If you've not yet been to this dungeon you can find it northeast from the town of Mikasalla.
(9) Ether - Jupiter Djinni (Garoh)
After you acquire the Reveal Psynergy you'll want to return to the town of Garoh and use Reveal on the rock in the northeastern portion of town. Each time you enter Garoh you'll see a werewolf come out of this rock using Reveal. Head inside and find the back room pictured above - there will be a scene inside of here. When the scene is over you'll be returned to the Inn and you'll spend the night in Garoh. Return to this room in the morning to get the Djinni.
