You’re about to spend a lot of time in the training room of Floatia, picking out the best stats in which to pump energy. This training scheme offers a nice way to personalise how your Digimon grow, but also how they Digivolve through rebirth. It’s time to pump up those numbers.

Training Room

Unlike other companion RPGs, the path to levelling up your monsters is not only fraught with battles. Of course, fighting enemies out in the field does grant XP and items, but your Digimon growth will come, primarily, from theFloatia training room. The training room is a console that allows you tochoose certain stats to trainfor each Digimon.

You havetwo Digimon iconsthat you can move around the stats, allowing you to train separate stats if needed. For example,you can train one Digimon in STR(strength)and the other in WIS(wisdom). Or you can rest one, while the other pushes forward on a stat.This is key to developing a pair of monsterswho can compliment each other. Choose your stats for balance; for example, if one Digimon is lacking in MP, while the other has low health, ensure to split their training to create a better balance.

Eat And Rest

Periodically your Digimon will stop and request a break. Often this is for food, but also for a rest on the beds next to the training console.Resting will replenish the energyused up in training, while also topping up any HP or MP you might have been missing when you started.There is also a toiletnearby, so no accidents will occur while working out. If you stick tofive sessions followed by a rest, then back to the training, you’ll create a happy, strong Digimon.

If you push your Digimon past their energy threshold their relationship with you will begin to fall impacting battles and digivolutions.
