  • Slot 1 pairs Emerald Bite (level 1) with Grasp (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
  • Slot 2 pairs Shell Shield (level 2) with Healing Wave (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
  • Slot 3 pairs Headbutt (level 4) with Powerball (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.

Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.
