33 These tips and tricks help new players progress more smoothly through LumenTale: Memories of Trey, from catching Animon efficiently to understanding the systems that matter most early on.

55 Types and Hidden Types
66  
77 Each Animon has one main type, which you can view on its menu. Most Animon also have a hidden type. Together these shape an Animon's overall type effectiveness, which is why two Animon of the same main type, such as two Virus Type Animon, can have different weakness charts. For the full matchup rules, see Type Effectiveness Explained.

1414 Attributes and Traits
1515  
1616 Every Animon has one of five attributes, and each attribute grants a special trait. The traits are shown in the table below.

1919 Traits Are Unlocked Later
2020  
2121 Although a trait is displayed on the Animon, you cannot use it until you unlock traits by beating a certain character as you progress through the story. If you go north, this happens on Route 16 on the way to Arsilia City.
2222  
2323 Stat Allocation Is Important
2424  
2525 Stat Points are earned each time an Animon levels up, and they can be assigned to any stats you choose, letting you build each Animon your own way. This is crucial: the game does not distribute Stat Points for you, so an Animon will feel weak even at a high level if its points are unspent. See How to Increase Stats.
2626  
2727 Two Ways to Catch Animon
2828  
2929 There are two ways to catch Animon, and both run through the Holoken. See How to Catch Animon for the full breakdown.
3030  
3131 Throw a Bilia in the field using the Holoken. You can freely aim before tossing to improve your chances of landing a hit. Animon behave differently by species: some stay calm and are easy to approach, while others aggressively chase you on sight.Weaken the Animon first in battle. Against stronger or higher-level Animon, it is often better to swap from Bilias Mode to Animon Mode so you start the battle with an advantage.
3232  
3333 After a Bilia connects, a quick-time event determines whether the catch succeeds. Its difficulty can rise with the Animon's level, and failing it enrages the Animon so it chases you. To recover, switch to Animon Mode and attack to stun it, since attempting a catch while it is stunned increases the catch rate.
3434  
3535 The Animon index
3636  
3737 The Animon index unlocks once you leave Iris Hamlet. It records everything you have discovered, from the Animon you have captured and their stats and info to the collectibles and items you have found. When you scan an Animon's weaknesses in battle, its Animon index entry updates as well. See the full Animon index: List of All Animon.

3939 Choices Matter
4040  
4141 Beyond choosing a starter, you will face important decisions throughout the story. Certain dialogue options and cutscene actions can change how events unfold, so pay attention before committing. See the List of Choices.
4242  
4343 First Narrative Choice: Logos or Mythos?
4444  
4545 One of the first major decisions is whether to head north toward the Logos faction or south toward the Mythos faction. Each represents different environments and people, and each offers a different experience. See Should You Go North or South?.
