How to Evolve Pip

What Influences Pip's Evolution?
Elements Used in Battle Elements Witnessed in Battle Elemental Attacks Taken in Battle

Pip's evolution is influenced by the Elements he's used and witnessed, as well as Elemental attacks he has taken during battle.

The game tallies this invisibly, and once the dominant Element has met the threshold for evolution, Pip will evolve in the middle of battle to its respective form, provided that the battle rewards you with a Star Level (★).

Whatever was the dominant Element from his evolution, it will now be Pip's new innate Element.

Choosing Which Form to Evolve To

In order to control Pip's evolution and innate Element, it is recommended to allocate the Elements in your party that you want for him, and use it against enemies of the same Element.

By doing this, the Elements Pip will use, witness, and take will be controlled, increasing the chances of unlocking the form you want.

Best Form and Advantages

Generally, Pip's forms from the Angel route are stronger in terms of magic, while forms from the Devil route are stronger in physical attacks.

The Holy Beast form lies in the middle of the two other forms, being the best in both magic and physical attacks.
