Getting a Bushi Noct

Bushi Noct has a breeding power of 840, which puts it rarer than 76% of all breedable Pals (lower power means rarer offspring). The headline route is the unique combo: Bushi paired with Sootseer always produces Bushi Noct, ignoring the power formula entirely.

Is Bushi Noct worth a base slot?

At a base, Bushi Noct's best job is Lumbering: level 5 makes it the #14 Lumbering worker of the 64 Pals that can do the job at all. It also covers Kindling (Lv 2, #33 of 44), Transporting (Lv 2, #61 of 148), Handiwork (Lv 2, #64 of 109), Gathering (Lv 1, #81 of 111). Its attack of 130 is well above the roster average of 96, so it doubles as a fighter. It is nocturnal, so it keeps working through the night while day-shift Pals sleep, which effectively doubles its output on automated bases.
