Ryu Evolutions

[Digipoop]

I wonder if the frequency of you interacting with other people's Ryus is also a factor, or if it only matters how often your own Ryu is being interacted with?

I'm guessing it's a combination of both!

If a lot of it has to do with interaction amount, then it's definitely correlated simply due to the fact that GreyFaerie had hers the longest and everyone had to interact with hers to get theirs and from there it spiderwebs out into 2nd, 3rd gen etc. The more recent a ryu, the less interactions it will have logged historically right? :o We probably should track some of the older ryus for sure!

So reading Bat's posts again:

That's an interesting observation. I didn't want the Ryugotchis to be just another userbar that users could just collect and discard, so I built in consequences for neglecting them. Your luck depletes, and it becomes unlikely to impossible for your Ryugotchi to evolve. It would have to be treated well through a reincarnation cycle to make up for the luck deficit in order to evolve later. Certain scenes are tied to later evolutions as well. We've also planned to utilize the stats we've collected to reward users with relevant userbars in the future, so it pays to love your Ryus!

Fortunately, the vast majority of you are doing an excellent job taking care of your and each other's Ryus. That community outreach is going to result in a lot of high-luck evolutions when the time comes! Whether it's you, or other folks in the community - every little bit helps!

Yep! There's a chance that your Ryugotchi can evolve after a certain point. It's not guaranteed to happen every time, but the amount of care that was given to your Ryu directly impacts the likelihood of it evolving. What @(you need an account to see links); said.

So if I had to guess, interactions increase some sort of luck quotient and neglect decreases it. Every time there's an update, there's a chance any given Ryu will evolve, but the value of the chance is based on how much luck the Ryu has. So if more care = more luck, then let's get eyes open. Also probably worth considering how active the parent is because more active means the Ryu is more likely to be seen, even if born a little later.

I wonder if the amount or type of luck (Interactions with my ryu or interactions with a foreign ryu) will affect the type of evolution.
Wouldn't it be interesting if there is more than one possibility? I mean, maybe we don't all have the same evolution sequences...

On one hand, I'm hoping there are different evos! On the other I also want a long snake

There's at least one more evolution in the current branch of Ryugotchi, and there's a chance to encounter a separate branch altogether. GreyFaerie's luck was maxed out, which was a spectacular surprise! They've taken excellent care of their Ryugotchi. If other people do the same, then they're practically guaranteed an evolution. I'm taken aback at how quickly all of you figured this stuff out!

So this was the earliest parent list I could find, not including mod squad.

GreyFaerie's evolved, so let's see if these folks are next!

also us: backgrounds ?? how ??? huh ??????

What does in the current branch of Ryugotchi mean??? I am happy with my pixie BUT I would love that these things could be collected. Like a collection gallery. Something like a family tree of the different evolutions and the different branches.

also us: backgrounds ?? how ??? huh ??????

I still don't have the moon background.
Bat gave, and Bat hath taken away

[Bat]

There's something of a family tree! Everyone is on one branch right now, but GreyFaerie is further along it. That's not the only branch though!

You're close to getting it, GreyFaerie! As are several other people. I wish that I could say more, but it'll be pretty obvious in time!

that's so exciting! congrats on the noodle boy!
