Aniimo Tier List (v1.1, Sept 2026)

Version 1.1 added Irisalis (Legendary, Grass DPS), Dazmand (Lightning Support), plus Prismana Melloblum (28 Sept to 5 Oct) and Prismana Waleetle (5 to 12 Oct) via Vein Abundance events, but made no balance changes to existing Aniimo, so launch-era rankings still hold. The backbone here is Game8's list (updated 25 Sept), cross-checked against Mobi.gg and Hideout Guides; where sources disagree it's flagged. Team building matters a lot in Aniimo, so a B-tier pick in the right element team can outperform an off-element S.

Aniimo	Role	Why
Fulmintis	DPS	Highest Attack in the game; free 35% crit-rate boost. Prismana form is S+ on Mobi.gg.
Lunara	DPS	Huge base ATK for a starter; final-damage buff plus a mark that cuts Light resistance. S or higher in all three sources (S+ on Mobi.gg).
Helion	DPS	High ATK amplified by Solar Grace / light bursts (+30% damage). S everywhere.
Stellarys	DPS	Ranged Dark DPS with great mobility; clones add extra damage.
Pawney	DPS	Top damage if you manage EP and Ultimate uptime well.
Ignitis	DPS	Second-highest base ATK; stacking Battle Fervor.
Prismana Glacy	Heal	Off-field team healing (up to 10% HP every 5s) plus a universal damage buff and good defensive typing. Best healer.
Turbo	Support	Universal support: damage buff, shields and healing in any team. Prismana Turbo is also S: up to 60% Dark damage buff with Nimbi Burst.
Sparkelf	Support	Best Fire-team support: heals, buffs and helps Break.
Somniwing	Regen	Team-wide EP recovery with no downtime, works in any element.
Besauce	Regen	Instant EP refill (up to 25) plus 1.5 EP/sec passive. S on Game8 and Hideout.
Inferlupa	Break	Fire Breaker that deals Dark damage; strong Full Energy synergy.
Rookey	Break	Makes enemies take more Break damage; scales off Physical Defense.

Aniimo	Role	Why
Coraliz	DPS	Marks enemies so they take extra damage. S+ on Mobi.gg, A on Hideout; a solid S candidate.
Malevsera	DPS	Demonic State gives +30% damage. S on Mobi.gg and Hideout.
Gracewing	Heal	Off-field healing and EP recovery via Flutter Heal; Game8's endgame healer pick.
Glameep	Heal	Energy Bubbles give healing and shields. S on Mobi.gg.
Geoclaw	Break	Ice-team Breaker: 5 Ice stacks break the enemy's gauge.
Cornet	DPS	Wind DPS; flying state helps you dodge. Beach Cornet adds Water coverage.
Fenmane	DPS	Ranged Lightning DPS with multi-hit attacks.
Infergon	DPS	Fire DPS; needs Fire Debuff upkeep.
Sherro / Squashel	DPS	Sherro: Water DPS that absorbs puddles. Squashel: pinecone damage-amp loop.
Tromber	Support	Crit damage buffs and Wind resistance shred.
Eklue	Support	Wind damage buff plus Wind resistance debuff.
Luminelle	Support	Lightning-team damage and Break-efficiency buffs. C on Hideout's beta list.
Fragrancier / Hexxin	Support	Dark-team staples: Fragrancier heals, buffs and debuffs; Hexxin gives strong EP recovery and CC.
Dreaple	Debuff	Nightmare status lowers Dark resistance and heals allies.
Flamerion	Regen	Big EP restoration in Fire teams.
Blazen / Helgon / Tubster	Break	Blazen: Lightning Breaker with an 8 EP discount. Helgon: easy counter-based Break. Tubster: Concerto stamina drain.

Aniimo	Role	Why
Scorchhowl	DPS	Strong into Fire-weak enemies. Umbrabow form is S+ on Mobi.gg, so hunt that variant.
Magmarex	Break	Fire Debuff Breaker. Mobi.gg rates it much higher: base and Umbrabow S, Prismana S+.
Waleetle	DPS	Scales with Overloaded Engine. Prismana form (Earth/Dark) added in 1.1; Game8 has both forms in B.
Glynsera	DPS	Ice DPS with fiddly debuff management. Prismana form is S+ on Mobi.gg.
Grizbo	DPS	Huge damage while Enraged, but slow to set up.
Irisal / Leafy	DPS Regen	A Grass pair: Leafy makes Turf and Irisal cashes in on it.
Thornblade / Melloblum	DPS Sup	Crit-based Grass pair. Melloblum is S on Hideout's beta list, and 1.1 added a Prismana form.
Glacy / Flutternym	Heal	Decent healers, but their evolved or Prismana versions outclass them.
Chirpi	Support	Team HP regen and EP cost reduction.
Erlath	Regen	Makes puddles and helps the team's EP economy.
Minespine / Panpanta	Break	Minespine: Break with Tunnel mobility. Panpanta: Water Break, but can whiff on mobile targets.
Wavwal	Break	Shields plus a 40% Break speed boost. Very contested: S on Mobi.gg, C on Hideout.
Tuckin	Tank	Tanky, but Break setup is slow because it has to summon Hummin.

Aniimo	Role	Why
Pre-evolutions	Various	Baleetle, Budsquire, Cubbo, Iris, Helmwhelp, Helmut, Hummin, Nimbi, Fentuft, Geodeback: lower stats and missing their key skill or Ultimate. Evolve them.
Bouldus	DPS	Rolling Ball only works well when there are walls to bounce off.
Fahloo	Regen	Lacks Crazy Bubbles, so it's weak Water support.
Piopiota / Pranky	Support	Low healing and utility.
Pomawk	Support	Jittering Beats only really matters in PvP.
Shrubclaw	Break	Tunnel and Break, but outclassed by higher-tier Breakers.
Early fodder	Various	Emberpup, Budclaw, Bulbly, Lavazar, Jawling, Pebbling, Popota, Skippy, Susuta, Veilfloat, Shelly/Sheldon: Game8 puts these in D. Only use them early on or for Pokedex-style completion.
