Hi there !

I just started Temtem a few days ago (I’m in the very beginning, I’ve mosly been leveling up my temtems around Zadar.

I’m a regular from the Pokemon series. That being said, If I can avoid the beginner mistakes by receiving advices there, that would be great !

Thank you !

EDIT : One advice I learned from a video : don’t spend money on healing items. If you’re about to lose a battle, let yourself lose the battle. That way, when you reach the endgame, you’ll have plenty of money to start the endgame.

    I haven’t looked too far into it because I’m not that miffed about it, but after the initial opportunity to rename upon capture, I believe the only way to rename Temtem is a voucher to do so, which I’ve only seen in the premium battlepass.

    Your starter will not be appreciably stronger than other tems. Most are balanced out to be somewhat usable I’m the endgame, whether it be by stats, moveset, or ability. I would argue that some starters are just better than other due to their type being hard to find until mid game and useful early on. Also, tems that don’t evolve will be way stronger in the early game, since they are somewhat balanced with tems that do evolve later on.

    Don’t be scared to experiment with different tems and see if some fit your playstyle better, because of that.

    There are also occasionally hidden or hard to find areas that have a very small chance to find a tem that’s only available there. These tem are usually pretty good, so you may want to spoil yourself if you want to catch them all.

    Also, much like Pokemon’s IVs, tem have stats that vary. However, these numbers are visible to you. If you know you want a tem on your team, it might be worth catching a few for better stats.

    Finally, unlike in pokemon where creatures evolve at a set level, tems evolve after gaining a certain number of levels after capture.
