Badz-maru, Tuxedosam, and Pochacco are the ones who have the magnets, so make sure to get their Friendship rank to at least Level 2. You’ll most likely be given items to help you with this, so it shouldn’t take too long to complete. Once you make the sensor, the Compass Tool will lead you to a mysterious door.
