In VV: ULTIMATUM, Menos Grande is the first evolution stage available to the Hollow race. If you pick a Hollow, you begin as one of the early creature types and then grow into stronger forms, with Menos Grande sitting at the start of that chain before the more advanced stages.
Quick answer: Menos Grande is reached by playing as a Hollow and progressing past your starting type. It is the first of three Hollow evolutions, followed by Adjuchas and then Vasto Lorde.
What the Hollow race is in VV: ULTIMATUM
The Hollow is one of three playable races, alongside Shinigami and Quincy. It stands out with a more animalistic look compared to the other two. Hollows also use customizable Zanpakuto parts and draw from their own separate Weapon pool, which sets their kit apart from a Shinigami or Quincy build.
When you choose Hollow, you start by picking one of four creature types. Each one can be developed into stronger forms as you progress, and the evolution stages are shared across the race rather than locked to a single starting choice.
Where Menos Grande fits in the Hollow evolution order
Menos Grande is the first of three Hollow evolutions. After it, the path continues to Adjuchas and finishes at Vasto Lorde, which is the most powerful form in the line.
| Stage | Position in the Hollow line |
|---|---|
| Starting Hollow type | Gorilla, Lizard, Centipede, or Turtle |
| Menos Grande | First evolution |
| Adjuchas | Second evolution |
| Vasto Lorde | Third and final evolution |
The four starting Hollow types
Before you reach Menos Grande, you select a starting creature. There are four options, and each one can be developed into more powerful forms as you play.
- Gorilla
- Lizard
- Centipede
- Turtle
How Menos Grande compares to other race progressions
Each race grows in its own way, so the Hollow path to Menos Grande does not mirror how Shinigami or Quincy advance. A Shinigami centers on the Zanpakuto, a weapon with its own moveset that can take two or three different forms, including Shikai and Bankai. A Quincy instead uses spiritual energy known as Raishi to create Spirit Weapons, which develop into Letter Abilities such as Imagination and Almighty.
For the Hollow, evolution is the progression mechanic. Menos Grande is the entry point of that system, and reaching it confirms you have moved beyond your starting creature type and onto the shared Hollow path toward Adjuchas and Vasto Lorde.
If your goal is the Hollow power fantasy, Menos Grande is the milestone that opens the rest of the chain. Treat it as the first step rather than the destination, then keep progressing through Adjuchas and on to Vasto Lorde for the strongest form the race offers.
