How to evolve an Aniimo
Every evolution needs a level, from Lv 12 to Lv 52. 16 evolutions also need something more: a place, a personality, a talent, a battle or an item.
- In the Aniimo interface, press the Aniimo you wish to evolve, then open its Attributes screen and press Evolve to view its evolution path.
- Meet every requirement shown for the target: the level, plus any condition or item listed below its arrow.
- When an Aniimo is ready to evolve, a marker will appear directly on its avatar.
Aniimo can follow different evolution paths, and for some Aniimo, evolving can even change their element entirely. Game data
