This looks just like a normal newborn Chao, except it has green highlights instead of yellow ones. Chao Evolution Images Neutral Evolutions Before Evolution For more in-depth information on this, see the wiki page. The above explanation was just a summary of how it works. Because the Chao most recently interacted with a balance of all types, it will evolve into the Normal type.

You repeat this process 20 times, so that it has had a total of 100 of each kind. You give your Chao 5 Run animals, then 5 Power animals, then 5 Fly animals, and then 5 Swim animals. Most recently, you have only given it a large amount of Swim animals. You have given it an equal amount of every type, but only over a long period. You give your Chao 100 Run animals, then 100 Power animals, then 100 Fly animals, and then 100 Swim animals. This includes when it has been given nothing at all! Here are two examples to help explain this: Instead, it is based on a Chao’s recent interaction with animals or Chaos Drives.Ī Chao evolves into a ‘Normal’ type if it has recently interacted with animals/drives in a balanced way. All of this is completely false! Evolution is more complicated than that, and actually is not based on stat values at all.

It is very commonly believed that a Chao evolves into the Swim, Fly, Run, or Power types if the corresponding stat is the highest, and that the Normal type is based on HP/Stamina or a balance between the other four stats. These ability types are Swim, Fly, Run, Power, and Normal (where no stat is favoured over the others). There are four main groups of animals and Chaos Drives and this is what determines the Chao’s evolution path it will evolve into one of five different ability types. Depending on what animals and/or Chaos Drives you have given your Chao, it will evolve in a certain way. Ability TypesĪ Chao doesn’t just evolve into a Hero, Dark, or Neutral alignment: it also evolves into one of five different ability types.

Hero and Dark Chao were not introduced until the next game in the series, Sonic Adventure 2! So there are only five possible evolutions (plus the Neutral Chaos Chao) in this game. All Chao in the first Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast are Neutral alignment.
