1-Lion Cub2-31Lion Cub is a Fire and Martial dual-type spirit cataloged as #156 in the Roco Kingdom: World spirit dex. It is the base form of a three-stage line that evolves into Blaze Lion at level 16 and Blazehart Lion at level 36. The line's trait, Holy Fire Knight, doubles the next attack's power after Lion Cub successfully responds to an incoming hit, making it a textbook counter-attacker.4253Spirit Profile6475AttributeValueDex Number156ElementFire / MartialCategoryFlame Lion SpriteFormPhase I OriginalHeight0.67 to 0.81 mWeight8.5 to 12.05 kgLocationMysterious Whereabouts at launchTraitHoly Fire Knight (next attack power doubled after a successful response)86Base Stats97108StatValueHP82Physical Attack31Magic Attack66Physical Defense53Magic Defense78Speed48Total358119Evolution Chain12101311Lion Cub (#156) at base levelBlaze Lion at level 16Blazehart Lion at level 3614121513Notable Skills16141715Explosive Missile, Quench, Magic Amplification, Sustained High Temperature, Momentum Stack, and IncinerateSustained High Temperature pairs naturally with the Burn pressure ecosystem.

Its 78 Magic Defense and 82 HP are high enough to absorb a single magic attack, and the doubled-power follow-up swing can push damage above what raw attackers without the trait achieve. The slow Speed 48 is a real limitation; in PvP, the player must accept that Lion Cub will almost never act first.22202321Tips24222523Use Lion Cub as a second or third pivot, not an opener. The trait requires a successful response, so leading with Lion Cub on turn one wastes the doubled hit.Pair Lion Cub with a fast support that can apply defensive buffs or healing while Lion Cub absorbs the counter setup.Avoid leaving Lion Cub in against Water, Wing, or Phantom opponents. Its dual Fire and Martial typing takes super-effective damage from each.Magic Amplification on the buffed counter-swing turns the trait's bonus into a one-shot threat against many same-tier opponents.26242725See Also28262927Element Types - Fire and Martial matchup chartSpirits - full spirit rosterCombat System - counter-attack and response mechanics
