Aniimo Type Chart: Element Matchups Explained

Aniimo's elements won't always behave the way you expect from another creature collector. The chart is directional: an element that resists an attack doesn't necessarily hit that attacker super effectively in return. Before a hard fight, check the actual skill and target instead of choosing a team from the creature's appearance.

You'll also see Earth called Rock and Light called Holy in game data and official creature entries. StatWise uses Earth and Light in the explanation below; those labels refer to the same elements, so don't count them as extra types.

These are attack advantages from StatWise's counter-team explanation, not a complete defensive chart. A neutral or resisted result against a dual-type target can override the obvious single-type advantage. If the result seems wrong, open the target's element information in-game before assuming your build is broken.

StatWise describes dual-type matchups as multiplying the results for both defensive elements. Under that rule, two advantages give 1.6 × 1.6 = 2.56×, while an advantage and a resistance give 1.6 × 0.625 = 1×. Those calculations explain why a nominal counter sometimes produces an ordinary hit. They describe that guide's matchup model, rather than a damage formula covering stats, skill power and every buff.

For example, the guide uses water against a Fire/Earth target: water is strong against both halves. It also warns that grass against an Earth/Grass target cancels its advantage because the target's grass half resists the attack. Don't carry the first half of a matchup into the fight and forget the second.

A second type can add useful resistances as well as new weaknesses. The Fulmintis discussion makes that especially clear. Players initially argue that adding light must make the Prismana form worse, then point out the resistances it gains for the fights lightning creatures commonly enter. The useful question is which attacks you'll face, not how many weaknesses you can count in isolation.

Separate defense from your chosen moves, too. A different form doesn't guarantee that your basic attacks, core skill or equipped moves all deal the new element's damage. Read those skill labels. The same discussion disagrees about exactly how some elemental buffs apply, which is another reason to check the buff wording rather than assuming that matching creature types is enough.

You can plan differently for a known boss and a mixed run. Against a boss, choose the defensive profile that helps with its attacks. In Egg Heist, a broader mix of enemies can make flexible resistances and recovery more attractive. Neither approach proves that all Prismana forms are upgrades or that all dual types are liabilities.

Fire L2 and Fire L3 are not two new combat elements. The L1–L4 discussion connects elemental levels to work suitability and exploration interactions, including cooking and burning obstacles. Don't read a higher elemental level as a confirmed combat damage multiplier. Worker traits and the facility's requirements belong to a different decision from attack matchups.

Likewise, a video ranking 45 type combinations isn't claiming Aniimo has 45 basic elements or 45 playable classes. Cheep Tamer ranks combinations and explicitly warns that its spreadsheet cannot account for stats, modes and synergies. A theoretically attractive defensive profile can still sit on a creature whose kit isn't right for your team.

Be especially cautious with old charts. The easy-chart thread contains corrections and a discussion of earlier Earth/Lightning assumptions. Treat a community image as a handy reminder after checking its version, not as a substitute for the information shown by your current client.
