Pebbling Evolution in Aniimo: How to Get Magmarex and Minespine

Both branches split at level 38, and each final form needs a level 48 fight plus one evolution stone.

Pebbling is the mineral-eating starting point of a family that splits in two directions, and the split is permanent for any individual creature. One line burns, one line hardens, and both end in a Nova stage BREAK unit that fights very differently from the other.

Quick answer: Pebbling evolves at level 38 into either Lavazar or Geodeback, one choice per creature. Lavazar becomes Magmarex at level 48 with Blaze Stone x1, and Geodeback becomes Minespine at level 48 with Loam Stone x1.


Every Pebbling evolution requirement

Four evolutions exist in this family, and nothing else. The two level 38 evolutions are parallel options from the same creature, while the two level 48 evolutions each sit at the end of their own branch.

Magmarex and Minespine are both stage 3. Neither has any further evolution.


Where to find Pebbling

Pebbling is a Rock element BREAK unit from the Breezy Plains, and it lives in the Zephyrus Landbridge. It stands 0.85 m tall and weighs 6 kg, with base stats of 83 HP, 68 attack, 52 defense, 79 BP attack, 68 magic attack, 74 magic defense and 56 EP regen. Its kit is short at this stage, covering ATK, Stone Shell and Earth Spikes.

Both of its Aniilog research tasks are field work rather than combat. One asks for a photo of a Pebbling eating stones, and the other asks you to Twine with a Pebbling and explore a tunnel dug by a wild Lavazar.


The level 38 branch: Lavazar or Geodeback

At level 38 the game offers both Gamma stage options side by side, and your Pebbling takes exactly one of them. This is a fork, not a sequence, so a Pebbling that becomes Lavazar can never become Geodeback later. If you want both final forms in the Aniilog, you need two separate Pebbling.

Lavazar

Lavazar adds Fire to the family’s Rock typing and shares the Zephyrus Landbridge habitat. It reaches 1.35 m at 6 kg, with 99 HP, 82 attack, 63 defense, 93 BP attack, 82 magic attack, 80 magic defense and 68 EP regen. Its skills are ATK, Lava Breath and Fiery Punch, all Fire.

Geodeback

Geodeback stays pure Rock and keeps the same three-skill loadout as Pebbling: ATK, Stone Shell and Earth Spikes. It is the shorter of the two at 1 m and 6 kg, with 99 HP, 81 attack, 80 defense, 102 BP attack, 81 magic attack, 54 magic defense and 70 EP regen. Its research task asks you to Twine with a Geodeback and approach a wild Pebbling.

How to get Magmarex from Lavazar

Raise your Lavazar to level 48. The level gate is checked first, so nothing else in the chain will register until it is met.
Soak in the hot spring pool. The condition is written as letting the warmth envelop your body and soul, and it is the same hot spring activity that Lavazar’s own research task points you toward.
Defeat Alpha Magmarex. This is the unlock fight for the branch, and it has to be cleared before the evolution becomes available.
Spend Blaze Stone x1 to complete the evolution. That single stone is the full material cost.

Magmarex comes out at 1.9 m and 6 kg with 110 HP, 91 attack, 70 defense, 104 BP attack, 91 magic attack, 89 magic defense and 75 EP regen. It keeps Lava Breath from the previous stage and picks up Lava Punch, Magma Surge and the heavy Burning Sun, which is its strongest Fire hit at 140 power.

How to get Minespine from Geodeback

Raise your Geodeback to level 48. This branch has no environmental condition attached, so the level and the Alpha fight are the only gates.
Defeat the Alpha Minespine. Alpha Minespine spends time tunneling underground, and a Pound skill is what forces it back to the surface where you can hit it.
Spend Loam Stone x1 to finish the evolution. No other material is required.

Minespine reaches 1.6 m at 6 kg with 110 HP, 90 attack, 97 defense, 105 BP attack, 90 magic attack, 60 magic defense and 78 EP regen. It carries the whole Rock line forward and adds Seismic Wave, which runs for 8s and costs 40 EP, plus Meteor Shower at 175 power.

Seismic Wave is tagged as a Pound skill, which is the same skill category that pulls tunneling targets out of the ground.


Magmarex vs Minespine: Stats and element coverage

The two endpoints share the same HP pool and sit within a point of each other on BP attack, so the real difference is where the durability goes and what their damage hits for extra.

Pebbling835279
Lavazar996393
Geodeback9980102
Magmarex11070104
Minespine11097105

Minespine is the tougher body against physical hits with 97 defense, but only 60 magic defense. Magmarex flips that, sitting at 70 defense with a much higher 89 magic defense, which matters against magic-heavy encounters.

Element coverage decides the rest. Fire and Rock both hit Ice for extra damage, but they solve different problems everywhere else.

FireGrass, IceFire, Holy, Rock, Water

Everything not listed takes normal damage. Since Magmarex carries both Fire and Rock typing but only Fire skills, it is the answer to Grass targets, while Minespine’s pure Rock kit is the one you bring against Fire.


Magmarex Prismana form

The only alternate form in the family belongs to Magmarex (Prismana). It drops Rock for Dark, making it a Fire and Dark unit at element level 4, and it keeps the base form’s stat line of 110 HP, 91 attack, 70 defense, 104 BP attack, 91 magic attack, 89 magic defense and 75 EP regen. It is also recorded in the Zephyrus Landbridge.

Dark Energy Surge is locked to that form. It is a Dark skill costing 20 EP at 30 power with an 18s cooldown, and it stuns everything caught in the cone for 2.5s. Base Magmarex does not have it, and neither do Lavazar, Geodeback or Minespine. Encountering a Prismana Form Magmarex is also one of base Magmarex’s research tasks.


How to confirm the evolution worked

Check the Aniilog number first. The family runs from Pebbling at No. 70 through Lavazar at No. 71, Magmarex at No. 72, Geodeback at No. 73 and Minespine at No. 74, so a successful evolution moves the creature onto a new entry.

The skill list is the second check. A finished Magmarex shows Lava Punch, Magma Surge and Burning Sun alongside Lava Breath, while a finished Minespine shows Seismic Wave and Meteor Shower on top of Stone Shell and Earth Spikes. Release rewards also land at the same time, with Growth Flower x1 for Geodeback and Growth Flower x2 for Minespine.

After that, the only work left is the other branch. Catch a second Pebbling in the Zephyrus Landbridge, take it to level 38, and send it down whichever path you skipped the first time.
