| The numbers on the left are the stats with no IV (0) or the lowest possible stat a Pal can have within a specified level. The red numbers on the right are the stats with max IV (100) or the highest possible stat a Pal can have. ※This table does not include bonuses from Passive Skills, Partner Skills, or any other stat boosts. | |||||||||
IVs are hidden stats each Pal has for each stat that randomizes their HP, Atk, and Def to a specific range. Having 0 IV for a stat means the Pal gets a 0% bonus, while having the maximum 100 IV gives a 30% bonus to the respective stat.
For example, if two Lamballs have the same passives and buffs, the Lamball with the higher HP IV will always have a higher HP pool.
A Pal's IVs cannot be altered but can be used to influence its child's IVs through breeding. Therefore, breeding is an excellent option to pass a parent's high IV and favorable Passive Skills to obtain a Pal with the highest IVs possible with the preferred Passive Skills.
Menasting, a Ground/Dark Element Pal, can be found as a level 44 Field Alpha Boss inside the Dessicated Mineshaft in the desert region of the map in the northeast.
The entrance to the Dessicated Mineshaft can be found south of the PIDF Tower Entrance teleport point, at the coordinates 492, 81.

List of Grass Element Type Pals

Menasting is an Ground/Dark Element Pal and is therefore weak to Grass pals. Utilize this information to exploit its weaknesses to Grass by battling with a Grass-element Pal.
Use your Grass Pal to distract Menasting and allow your active Pal to take most of the damage while damaging Menasting with your weapons.
The Menasting field boss is around Level 44, so bringing a Grass-element Pal that is at least Level 40 should be enough to defeat them.
Element Type Chart Matchups Explained
The Grass-element skill, Seed Mine, is an effective move to use as it covers a large range which deals significant damage against Menasting.

If you wish to capture Menasting, try collecting as many Lifmunk Effigies as possible to increase your capture rate. Menasting is a powerful Pal, so make sure to bring higher grade Spheres.
