Popota Base Stats

HP	ATK	P.DEF	M.DEF	BREAK	REGEN	Total
92	96	68	68	80	67	471

Six attributes sum to the total shown on the official index; ATK covers physical attack while BREAK scales guard damage. These are launch-preview base numbers — inherit building and equipment will move the final values.

Element and Role

As a Water creature, Popota’s attacks deal 1.6x damage into Fire and Earth and are resisted to 0.625x by Water, Grass, Ice and Light. Aniimo has no immunities, and same-element hits are always resisted — the full grid is on our type chart.

The Breaker tag marks a kit focused on breaking enemy guards and stagger bars. Teams pair a Breaker like Popota with a DPS who benefits from openings it creates.

Evolution Line

The official evolution tree places Popota on a line with Susuta (stage 1) → Popota (stage 2). Each stage raises the stat ceiling and unlocks stronger skill variants, so base-form investment carries forward through the family.

How bonding and stage-ups actually play out in-game is covered in our evolution guide.

Popota Forms: Nighttime

The official Aniimo Index gives Popota 2 separate form entries:

Form	Element	Habitat	Base stats
Basic Form	Water	Echoback Landing	471
Nighttime Form	Water	—	471

Every form shares the exact same statline (471 total) and trait; what changes is element typing. How forms work — and how switching ties into the Morph Orb — is covered in the Aniimo forms guide.

Skills and Trait

• Trait — Appeal: When entering battle, if the team has an opposite-sex Susuta family member, increases own BREAK efficiency by 30% for 15s. Cooldown: 20s.

Combat skills:

Skill	Cost	Power
Water Cannon	10	39
Water Dash	20	74

Skill costs are the resource spend shown on the official sheet; power is its listed base value. For how skills interact with the Twine system, see the combat guide.

Where to Find Popota

The official index lists Popota in Echoback Landing. Other Aniimo sharing that ground include Emberpup. Spawn points, timers, and Twine-bond strategies go into our catching guide — the short version: weaken it in real-time combat, then bond rather than trap.

Building around the Water element? Glameep is another confirmed Water pick.

Is Popota Good?

Popota’s highest base attribute is ATK, which shapes when you’d field it: a damage-first pick that wants openers to unload on staggered targets. For where it lands against the rest of the roster, see our Aniimo tier list and best creatures rankings.
