encounter Battle

•  When you enter the large or small Vortex, an encounter battle 

with the Krawl within will begin. 

•  During an encounter battle, you will command two Spectrobes in a 

battle against up to four Krawl.

•  Switch between Spectrobes during battle. The game AI will control 

the Spectrobe you are not controlling.

•  A Spectrobe with a full CH Gauge can revive a fallen one.
•  Once you eliminate all the Krawl within the vortexes, the battle is 

over and you will be returned to the field.

•  If all of your Spectrobes are defeated, you lose the battle. You will 

return to the field , where the vortexes will remain.

•  At this point, each defeated Spectrobe will have only one HP. You 

can open the prizmod and use items to heal them.

  Tip: 

Earn money , items and experience points by defeating Krawl!

Spectrobe Attacks

Each Spectrobe has its own individual Normal Attack and Charge 
Attack (also known as CH Attack). Spectrobes can also perform a 
Combination Attack with a partner. 

•  The types of Combination Attacks that a Spectrobe can use 

depend on their state of evolution and individual characteristics.
