Glacy

Getting one

Landing the catch

Go for one of its forms. The basic Glacy has no habitat on record, but its other forms live in the wild — the regions are under Getting one, and each form's card says what it changes. The steps below are the general procedure.

Everything below is how catching works for any Aniimo — it is not specific to Glacy.

1. Wear it down first. Depleting a wild Aniimo's HP and dealing break damage to its break gauge both increase capture success.
2. Come at it from behind. Attacking an Aniimo or throwing a capture pod at it from behind grants a back attack bonus that greatly increases the catch rate.
3. Better still, catch it asleep. Sleeping wild Aniimo can be approached and captured while they are asleep.
4. Put a trap in its path. Traps can be set in the terrain, such as in a wild Aniimo's path, to increase the likelihood of capturing it.
5. Throw the right tier. Aniipods come in multiple tiers, and higher tiers carry higher base capture success rates, so stronger Aniipods are recommended for difficult captures, although some specialised models such as Aniipod Track and Tumbler trade raw catch power for utility effects.
6. Out-level it. Being a lower level than the target creature reduces catch odds.
7. Expect to miss anyway. Aniimo displays a catch success chance when you aim an Aniipod at a wild Aniimo, and any throw below 100% can still fail after the pod shakes.
