Starlings
Can my Starlings travel alongside me outside of Intellipet Adventures?
No, the Starlings that you gain as companions in Intellipet Adventures are not available outside of this game. The same also goes for Pets you have in other parts of Adventure Academy–they are not available to you in Intellipet Adventures.
How do I get more Starlings?
You have the chance to get more Starling companions to join you by winning Knowledge Battles. After winning a Knowledge Battle, you will be given the option to invite the opposing Starling to join your team (shown below). You will be shown a percentage of how likely it will be for the Starling to join you, and can choose whether or not to extend the invitation.
- If you select Yes, an invitation will be sent to the opposing Starling, who will then consider the invitation. The Starling will either decide to Accept of Decline your invitation and return to their home.
- If you select No, no invitation will be sent to the opposing Starling, and players will exit the Knowledge Battle.
How do I level up my Starlings?
You can level up your Starlings by gaining XP (Experience) through winning Knowledge Battles with them.
Additionally, all Starlings on your team will earn XP after winning a Knowledge Battle. And even if a Starling on your team becomes too tired to continue playing in a Knowledge Battle, they'll still earn XP.
What are the benefits of leveling up my Starlings?
By leveling up your Starlings, you'll make them stronger! Level up benefits vary, but can include the following:
- Increased health
- Increased speed
- Increased defense
- Unlocking more actions
What is the max level that a Starling can reach?
The max level a Starling can reach is Level 30.
How do my Starlings get their energy back?
When playing Knowledge Battles, Starlings will gradually become tired and lose their energy. If a Starling becomes too tired, they will not be able to participate in Knowledge Battles.
Starlings can regain their energy by being taken to a Healing Pond.
How many Starlings can I have in my team?
Only five Starlings can adventure with a you on your team at a time.
Who can watch my extra Starlings?
You can only have five Starlings active on your team at a time. But not to worry, Gromora the Furopian can watch the extra Starlings while you are out adventuring with your team! Additionally, if your team is full and a Starling accepts your invitation to join you, they will go to and stay with Gromora automatically.
Gromora can be found at the Proud Paw Parlor, which is located in Botanica near the big lemon.
Please note that Gromora and the Proud Paw Parlor are not available immediately. You will need to complete some of the initial Quests with Gromore first. Once those are completed, Gromore will provide a Quest that will introduce Gromora and the Proud Paw Parlor.
How can I switch between what Starlings are on my team?
Players can change what Starlings are on their team or the order of Starlings on their team at the Proud Paw Parlor.
To change the Starlings and/or order of your team:
- Navigate to the Proud Paw Parlor.
- In the Proud Paw Parlor menu, click/tap a Starling in your team to move them to the Proud Paw Parlor.
- This will free up space on your team to add another Starling currently in the Proud Paw Parlor.
- Make the changes you want to your team.
- Once finished, select Save and Close.
Elemental Affinities
What is an Elemental Affinity?
An Elemental Affinity is an elemental power that Starlings have. These in turn will affect what kind of action moves they have, as well as their strengths and weaknesses to other Starlings in Knowledge Battles.
What kind of Elemental Affinities can Starlings have?
There are four Elemental Affinities a Starling can have:
- Normal
- Fire
- Plant
- Water
How do Elemental Affinities affect Knowledge Battles?
While Knowledge Battles primarily focus on whether correct answers are selected to the questions asked, Elemental Affinities add another layer to them. All Starlings have an Elemental Affinity, and these Elemental Affinities have strengths and weaknesses against other Elemental Affinities.
The strengths and weaknesses of Elemental Affinities are:
-
Normal
- Are not weaker or stronger against any other Elemental Affinities
-
Fire
- Strong against Plant Affinities
- Weak against Water Affinities
-
Plant
- Strong against Water Affinities
- Weak against Fire Affinities
-
Water
- Strong against Fire Affinities
- Weak against Plant Affinities
How do I tell what kind of Elemental Affinity a Starling has?
Starlings will have an icon that displays what their Elemental Affinity is.
Additionally, a Starling's appearance and species name can also give clues as to what their Elemental Affinity is outside of Knowledge Battles and menu screens.
For example, Starlings with green colored or plant-like features most likely have a Plant Affinity.
