Trading guides

Only trading. Hatching, eggs and catching are covered on Aniimo Eggs. Start with how trading works.

• Affinity levels in Aniimo and what each one unlocks

  What affinity is, the three tiers that gate trading, what opens at Good Friend, Close Friend and Best Friend, and the rules that sit on top of the level.

• The daily swap limit and the 30-day trade lock

  How many trades you can do a day in Aniimo, why a traded creature is locked for 30 days, and how to plan trades around both.

• Finding a trade partner on your server

  Why trades are server-bound, how the box and matches work, what to do when nobody matches yet, and how to bring a partner from Discord in one tap.

• How to raise affinity with a friend fast

  The actions that raise affinity in Aniimo, which ones are confirmed, which stack in one session, and a daily routine that gets two players to trading level quickly.

• How to trade safely in Aniimo

  The scams that show up in every creature-trading community, why Aniimo's affinity gate blunts most of them, and the habits that keep you safe on the rest.

• Which rare Aniimo can be traded, and which cannot

  Sparkling, Prismana and Alpha Aniimo cannot be traded at all. Umbral, area forms and weather forms can, at Best Friend. What each word means and what to check before a rare swap.

• Playing with friends on different platforms

  Aniimo lets PC, console and mobile players share a party. It does not let players on different regional servers share anything at all.

• Regional and weather forms you can only get by trading

  Area and weather forms are the main reason to trade in Aniimo, and two of the three variants that can move at all. The Best Friend gate on them, and how to find a partner who plays where they spawn.

• Trade evolution round trips - trade, evolve, trade back

  How two friends evolve each other's Aniimo through a round trip, what the 30-day lock and the keep-one rule mean for it, and how the site keeps lenders safe.
