- Inheritance transfers a training profile, not the recipient’s original innate potential. Put the trained donor on the left and the intended recipient on the right.
- Creator guides report that both creatures remain afterward. Check the preview for the exact transferred progress, requirements and fee before confirming.
A better catch does not mean starting over
Catching a better version of a creature you've already trained is exactly the situation inheritance is meant to solve. Instead of rebuilding it from scratch, you move the training investment onto the new catch. The important distinction is between the profile you've developed and the creature's own starting quality. Inheriting training doesn't copy one creature's original innate potential onto another.

The build guide describes this as swapping training profiles within an evolutionary family. It says the old creature remains in your collection, with the less-developed profile, rather than being consumed. Keep that separate from releasing a creature for materials. Read the before-and-after preview so you know which profile each creature will keep.

What to expect from the preview
| Item | What inheritance changes | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Level and experience | The build guide includes them in the training profile. | A level-only donor may not be enough to make a transfer eligible. |
| Resonance and star rank | Included in the reported transferred progress. | The recipient’s before/after values and any material refund. |
| Capability awakening / acquired potential | Reported as transferable training. | Which attributes change and whether anything exceeds the recipient’s limits. |
| Original innate potential | Does not become the donor’s original innate values. | Use the new catch’s own innate numbers when deciding which creature to keep trained. |
| Applied Capafruit effect | Official launch changes confirm automatic transfer of the applied effect. | Check the effect in the preview; this does not copy the donor’s original innate values. |
| Appearance, personality and Alpha or Prismana identity | Not established as transferable identity by these materials. | Treat these as a separate check; do not use inheritance as an assumed appearance converter. |

This distinction explains a common misunderstanding: moving upgrades onto a less-promising catch doesn't automatically give it the donor's natural quality. If the goal is a stronger end result, select the recipient for its own useful innate stats first. Then use inheritance to avoid spending the same training resources twice.

How to set up the transfer
Choose the recipient first
Compare the actual innate stats and the final evolution you want. Make sure you are moving progress onto the creature you intend to play.
Remove selection conflicts
The build guide recommends taking both creatures out of active combat and exploration squads if the game will not let you select them.
Open the trained creature’s information
Find Inherit in its information menu. The creator’s demonstrated direction is trained donor on the left, new recipient on the right.
Read the before-and-after preview
Compare level, stars, awakened attributes, applied effects, returned materials and the stated credit fee. Stop if the direction or result is not what you expected.
Confirm, then check both creatures
Inspect the recipient’s training afterward and check that the donor remains. Re-equip or select your team around the new trained creature rather than assuming every setup detail followed it.

The demonstration uses a credit fee, but don't budget around a number from a video without reading your own confirmation screen. The amount and eligibility rules are part of the current transaction. A small mistake in direction is more important to prevent than shaving a few seconds off the menu sequence.

When inheritance refuses to work
The vague training-level error is a real point of confusion in the player discussions. Before adding more materials, check that the donor has something transferable beyond ordinary levels. One thread reports that a donor with only levels could not transfer until it had a star upgrade or an awakened potential point. That is a reported workaround, not a reason to max out a creature you don't intend to use.

| Problem | Next thing to inspect |
|---|---|
| Only experience was invested | Look for transferable star or awakening progress in the preview. |
| One creature is unavailable in the list | Remove active squad assignments and check evolutionary-family compatibility. |
| The recipient already has substantial training | Compare the direction and the donor/recipient progress rather than assuming any pair can transfer. |
| You want to move Sparkling or Prismana appearance | Do not treat training inheritance as proof that the appearance will move. |
| The screen still refuses the transfer | Keep the error text and compare the visible rules; do not spend rare materials simply to guess at the condition. |

The forum answers disagree about levels and about what counts as a sufficiently developed donor. The creator guides include level in a successful transfer, while players distinguish that from transferring level alone. Those claims can coexist. The useful takeaway is to inspect the whole training profile rather than treating a high level as the only requirement.

Use inheritance to improve a team, not chase an icon
A Perfect label and a fully trained creature aren't the same thing. The stats guides separate innate potential from acquired training and show that the icons reflect different parts of development. Focus on the attributes your chosen role needs. A better attack roll matters for your damage dealer in a way it may not matter for a support built around recovery.

You can keep playing with a useful catch while looking for a better one. When that better recipient appears, compare it carefully and move only the training you understand. That is the practical value of inheritance: less duplicated investment, without pretending that every stat, appearance and upgrade is interchangeable.
