How to Find and Evolve Chagma in LumenTale: Memories of Trey

How to Find and Evolve Chagma in LumenTale: Memories of Trey

Chagma is a Sereum and Chakra type Animon (AniDex #107) in LumenTale: Memories of Trey, and it sits at the start of a branching evolution line. The path it takes is decided entirely by how you fight, not by an item or a level. That makes Chagma one of the few early Animon where your in-battle behavior changes the final result.

Quick answer: Catch Chagma in Area 02, Area 03, Area 05, or the Center Area. To evolve it, land 5 critical hits in a single battle for Gongbog, or miss 5 attacks in a single battle for Natmiss.

Where to find Chagma in LumenTale: Memories of Trey

Chagma appears as a wild encounter across several early and mid-game zones. The Center Area has the widest level spread, so you can find both low-level catches and much higher-level specimens there depending on the encounter band you walk into.

Chagma has a catch rate of 40 and a Medium Fast level curve. If you defeat one instead of catching it, it can drop Flexible Pyrite (4–7) and Thick Fur (2–3).


How to evolve Chagma into Gongbog or Natmiss

Chagma's evolution is a fork, not a straight line. Both results stay in the Chakra type, but the attribute changes and the trigger conditions are opposites. One rewards precise, hard-hitting play; the other rewards a string of misses in the same fight.

Animon (Attribute/Type)Evolution methodResult (Attribute/Type)
Chagma (Sereum, Chakra) Land 5 critical hits in one battle.
Land 5 critical hits in one battle.
Gongbog (Felicis, Chakra)
Chagma (Sereum, Chakra) Miss 5 attacks in one battle.

⚠️
Both counters reset between battles. You need all five critical hits, or all five misses, inside the same fight for the evolution to register.

How to land 5 critical hits in one battle (Gongbog)

To steer Chagma toward Gongbog, stack everything that raises critical hit chance and fight a target that can survive several turns. A drawn-out battle gives you the turns you need to hit the count of five.

Step 1: Set Chagma's quirk to Lucky Break before the fight. Lucky Break increases the chance of landing critical hits and activating secondary effects, which directly feeds the crit counter.

Step 2: Open the battle with Focal Point. This status move raises Chagma's Crit Power, setting up bigger and more frequent critical strikes on the turns that follow.

Step 3: Attack with reliable Chakra moves such as Direct Hit, which lands a precision blow, and keep swinging until five critical hits connect in the same battle. Picking a sturdier opponent buys the extra turns you need.

How to miss 5 attacks in one battle (Natmiss)

Natmiss requires the opposite approach. You want Chagma to whiff repeatedly, so lower its accuracy and choose moves that already miss more often.

Step 1: Equip the Hotheaded quirk. It raises Chagma's damage but decreases the accuracy of its attacks, which makes misses far more likely turn after turn.

Step 2: Lean on lower-accuracy moves like Energy Slash (90 accuracy) so failed attacks pile up faster, and avoid swapping back to perfectly accurate moves until the counter is full.

Step 3: Keep attacking the same opponent until five attacks miss in that single battle. As with the Gongbog route, a target that lasts a while gives you the turns to reach five.

Chagma type weakness and resistances

Knowing Chagma's matchups helps you survive long enough to hit either evolution count, since both conditions need extended battles. Chagma takes extra damage from Aura and Anomalous attacks, and it resists three types.

Aura, AnomalousChakra, Geo, DemonNone

Chagma's Martial Soul quirk is also worth noting for general use, since it boosts the damage of Chakra-type skills and moves without a type. For the two evolution routes, though, Lucky Break and Hotheaded are the ones that matter.


How to confirm the evolution worked

When the fifth critical hit or fifth miss lands in the same battle, the evolution trigger is met, and Chagma transforms once that condition is satisfied. After the change, the AniDex entry will read Gongbog (Felicis, Chakra) or Natmiss (Mestus, Chakra) instead of Chagma. If nothing happens, the most common reason is that the counter reset because the hits or misses were spread across more than one fight, so keep all five within a single battle.
