How to get Melobloom: location, evolution and Prismana

Head for White Rose Tower in Rose Tower Woods. Melobloom turns up around the tower, and its habitat is at the bottom of the maze, close to the waypoint. Unlock that waypoint and you have a quick way back whenever you need another attempt.

Rose Tower Woods is also where you nurture Melobloom, at a designated plant in the region. That plant matters for the Prismana form, which the event section below covers.

Melobloom becomes catchable after you encounter it during a story mission. If you are wandering the maze and finding nothing, push the story forward first.

The catch is the retry rule. A failed Melobloom capture can only be attempted again after you wait a full day. So treat the first throw seriously: get the creature into good shape for capture before you commit, because a miss costs you a day, not just another try.

If you already own a Budsquire, you can evolve it into Melobloom, but only after completing the Flowers and Thorns journey quest. Until that quest is finished, the evolution stays closed no matter how much else you do with your Budsquire.

That makes the quest the real gate on this evolution. If you want Melobloom without relying on the wild encounter and its one-day retry, finishing Flowers and Thorns is the way to do it.

Prismana Melobloom spawns in Rose Tower Woods during the Vein Abundance event rotation, which runs from 28 September to 5 October. Melobloom also appears around White Rose Tower while Vein Abundance is on, so the event is when the region is at its busiest.

The weekend is the window to target. From Friday to Sunday the event Prismana spawns in a mass surge, and that surge includes the earlier evolution form of the weekly Prismana, with Melobloom among them.

The Nurture Bloom gives you another way in. Filling a region's Nurture Bloom spawns a specific Aniimo in its Prismana form, and Prismana Melobloom is one of those. Since Melobloom is nurtured at a designated plant in Rose Tower Woods, that plant is how you work towards it.

For the farming itself, Tubster is the recommended Aniimo. A single team built around it can farm Prismana repeatedly, Prismana Melobloom included, so you do not need to rebuild your party between runs.

The Prismana form is more than a colour swap. Prismana Melobloom gains Light as a secondary type alongside Grass, which gives it a second typing that the regular form does not have.

It also gains access to Sparkling Rose and has one Light skill. If you want a Grass Aniimo that can also hit with Light, this is the version worth farming during Vein Abundance.

06Where to start

Start the story mission and unlock the waypoint at the bottom of the White Rose Tower maze. Finish Flowers and Thorns if you want to evolve a Budsquire. If you are after Prismana Melobloom, build a Tubster team and farm Rose Tower Woods before the Vein Abundance rotation ends on 5 October.
