Aniimo Tier List

Compare Aniimo by DPS, Break, Heal, Regen and Support. Names, numbers and stages come from the 101-entry creatures list; the S–D placements are a community-guide synthesis, not our own in-game damage tests.

How We Ranked Them

  • Source: placements were compiled from game8, Skycoach, LDShop and Gamezebo rankings supplied on September 27, 2026; the guides disagree on some picks.
  • Evolution stage: the source lists mix Lumin, Gamma and Nova entries. A low tier for a Lumin form does not apply to its later forms.
  • Role fit: DPS is compared with DPS, Break with Break, and so on.
  • Team dependence: a creature that needs a specific partner can drop a tier.
  • Acquisition context: reserved numbers and Legendary/special-form entries may not be obtainable as standard picks.
  • Live availability: #084–#093 exist in the launch build data but are not obtainable in the live game. Their provisional guide placements appear separately below, not in the main rankings.
  • Current build: placements should be updated after balance changes.

Our creatures dataset has no explicit evolution-line field, so these rankings do not infer evolution relationships from adjacent numbers. Stages on the creatures page are community-compiled and may differ between databases.

Where the Guides Disagree

We prioritize a pick's potential once built, not how quickly it can be acquired. S-tier does not mean a creature is the best early-game investment. A vote count is shown only when the supplied research identified individual source placements; a dash means the individual votes were not verified, not that the pick received zero votes. A 3/3 S vote means three listed guides put that pick in S, not that all four agreed.

  • Tromber and Turbo: Skycoach puts both in S, while Gamezebo puts Tromber in B and Turbo in C. Treat their S rating here as a high-ceiling pick, not universal consensus.
  • Irisal (#012): LDShop rates it S; Skycoach and Gamezebo rate it C. We leave it unranked pending a form-specific comparison. Irisalis (#10001) is a different numbered entry.
  • Soleon (#99997) and Helion (#99998): both are Light entries with adjacent reserved numbers, but the creatures data does not confirm that they are the same creature or form. Soleon may be Helion's Nova form, but this remains unconfirmed.
  • Sparkelf (#11001): Game8 highlights it alongside Turbo for Support. We place it in A provisionally; we do not have a verified four-guide vote count for it.

Not Yet Ranked

These 6 entries are in the creatures dataset but lack a defensible placement in this comparison. Missing from the table does not mean D-tier; availability varies by entry:

  • Irisal (#012) · DPS
  • Squarrel (#047) · Break
  • Fentuft (#059) · DPS
  • Pawney (#062) · DPS
  • Soleon (#99997) · DPS · Nova (possible Helion form, unconfirmed)
  • Jabster (—) · DPS
  • Irisalis (#10001) · DPS · Legendary/special form — included in discussion only

Team Composition Rules

A practical team starts with role coverage rather than five damage dealers:

  1. 1 DPS for primary damage.
  2. 1 Break to open damage windows.
  3. 1 Heal for sustain.
  4. 1 Regen or Support depending on the team's needs.
  5. 1 flex slot for another DPS, Break or utility pick.

Early Game vs Endgame

Several lower-tier entries in the source lists are Lumin forms, including Emberpup, Iris and Skippy. Their ratings do not mean the entire evolution line is weak. While levelling, prioritize a creature that fills the needed role and is available to you; compare its later forms separately.

Aniimo Forms Explained

Prismana, Highland, Rainstorm, Beach and Snowfield refer to special or regional forms. The creatures dataset labels Somniwing (#030) and Irisalis (#10001) as Legendary, so this page keeps them in a separate Legendary/special-form note rather than calling them Prismana-only. Somniwing is rated S for Regen by several cited guides, but that does not make it a standard-form Regen pick. Irisal (#012) and Irisalis (#10001) are different numbered entries; their names must not be interchangeable. The dataset explicitly confirms Fennelun (#99995) as the Nova-stage ultimate form of Lunara (#99996), so Fennelun is shown as Lunara's form instead of a second DPS ranking.

Numbers such as Fulmintis #10003, Sparkelf #11001 and Helion #99998 come from reserved ranges in the creatures dataset, outside the ordinary #001–#093 sequence. A reserved number alone does not establish which form it is or whether it is obtainable; see the creatures list for the numbering breakdown.

Aniimo Tier List FAQ

What is the best Aniimo in the game?

There is no single best Aniimo for every team. The compiled rankings highlight Fulmintis, Stellarys and Helion as S-tier DPS picks, but your Break, Heal and support slots matter too.

Which Aniimo should I pick for DPS?

Start with the S and A rows in the DPS table, then check the creature’s evolution stage and whether its form is obtainable in your build. Ratings here reflect other guides, not independent damage tests.

How many Aniimo are there?

The current creatures dataset contains 101 Aniimo entries, including numbered, reserved-number and unnumbered entries. See the full creatures list for each number, element, role and stage.

What are the different Aniimo forms?

Aniimo can have regional and special forms such as Prismana, Highland, Rainstorm, Beach and Snowfield forms. Somniwing and Irisalis are discussed separately as Legendary entries; a form-specific ranking is not interchangeable with its standard form.

Does this tier list cover early game or endgame?

The tables combine endgame picks and early-stage entries reported by the source guides. A D-tier Lumin form can still be useful early on, and its later evolution may rank higher. Check the stage next to each name.
