Core Crystals can be found in various places on your journey through Xenoblade Chronicles 2. When you find a crystal and open it, the reward is not fixed. You can get any number of Blades, from rare and powerful allies to rather disappointing comrades that you replace as soon as humanly possible. Common Crystals are very easy to find so we don’t mention those.
Below is a list of all the Core Crystals we’ve discovered in the game so far:
Without spoiling who the boss is, I got a core crystal off the first boss I fought. There are technically two bosses at the end of the chapter but only the first one dropped a Rare core for me.

On the Stomach map of the Kingdom of Uraya. There’s a flood gate that is blocked, you need to remove the blockage to reveal a chest. I got two Rare Core Crystals inside.
At the very end of Chapter 3, defeat both the bosses to obtain this crystal
