With all the new Chocobo Breeding stuff flying around, I thought it might be nice to ressurect the traditional 1st level summon--the Chocobo, and throw summoners a bone--since, after all, most of them are looking for one anyway. Of course, most Summoners are looking for a DD Bone so that "Summon" becomes the New "Black", so to speak.
The "Chocobo" summon would be similar to a spirit rather than an avatar, since obviously a chocobo is not some luminous godling, but a bird. Obviously, it would have an ability that normals spirits don't--Ride, and at 2 + 1 per 4.5 levels, this Chocobo would be nice, but very short duration. Of course...what does a Chocobo "do" in battle remains the big question. Maybe it doesn't do anything but peck and kick? Perhaps instead of making a "death" animation for it, just play the "Chocobo runs away" animation at 0hp.
