   The FAQ is written in order to document all Patapon types located in the
   game's Evolution Map.  This includes the stat bonuses and material
   requirements for each type.  Due to colossal scope of the topic, I cannot
   avoid having any mistakes, but I have done my best to ensure the accuracy

| [RAR] What are Rarepons?                                                   |
==============================================================================

  Q. Before you can use even anything here, what is the EVOLUTION MAP?
      >  It's the new system implemented in Patapon 2.  It's basically a map
       that your Patapon unit can explore by evolving them into Rarepons.

  Q. What are RAREPONs?
      >  Rarepons are basically "ranked" Patapon units.  Unlike your regular
       white eyeball units, Rarepons are colored and exhibit various status
       boosts.  However, as a tradeoff, Rarepons cannot equip caps.

  Q. Can't wear caps! They suck then!
      >  Nope. Well, low level, low-tier Rarepons do suck compared to
       Normals. However, when you max out their level they're almost always
       better than Normals even with the best caps!

  Q. Can I pick multiple Rarepon types for my Patapon?
      >  Of course.  Unlike in Patapon 1, each unit here can go through
       multiple Rarepon types that they've unlocked for themselves, so
       you don't have to kill your low-tier Rarepon to make a better one. :)

      >  Just think of Rarepon caps as replacements to caps Normal Patapons
       use.  You can basically equip through them.

      >  In order to select a type a unit has already learned, you can
       basically just equip the Rarepon cap in the Equip Screen.

  Here's a quicksheet for how you'd more likely call them:

    Here's the ASCII version of the map, which strangely disappeared when
 I uploaded v2.0 of the FAQ, lol.

    Use Ctrl+F to jump to the information page abou the listed Rarepons,
 since these are just the search tags.

               [NYO] -------- [CHI] -------.----- [SAB]
             /                             |

     |       |             \                      /
     .-----[BUH]-----[WAN]--.--------[MOF]-------.
                        \              |
                         \             .----.--------[MOG]
                          \                 |
                           --[CHG]--------[KAN]


    So how does the Evolution Map work? How do you "reveal" the Rarepons?
 First, let us introduce three terms:  NODE, REVEAL and ACTIVATE

    - NODE is a "slot" in the map.  In the ASCII graphics above, nodes are
 search tags like [NYO] and [MEN], so basically they are the circles that
 represent Rarepons in the map.
    - REVEAL is the act of making a node light up so you can activate it.
    - ACTIVATE is when you purchase the Rarepon node that is revealed.

    The first thing that happens is that when you get a memory, only the
 [NOR] node is revealed.  When you activate a node, all nodes immediately
 branching to its right gets revealed.  For example, when you activate [NOR],
 [PYO] and [BUH] gets revealed since they are immediate branches of [NOR].

    Relatively, in order to reveal a node, you must activate all nodes
 on its left.  For example, in order to reveal [MEN], you must have [PYO]
 and [BUH] activated.  But in order to activate [PYO] and [MEN], you must
 reveal them first by activating [NOR]. Touche. :)

   Here's a chart about which Memories can unlock which Memories, and the
 shortest path that you can take.  Take note that, of course, you need
 to go through all the evolutions listed to unlock the Memory.

    Just in case you want to quickly compare the all Rarepons' stats, here's
  the condensed table that compares the stats of all full-powered Rarepons
  (Lv10), so you can easily decide which one you want. ;)

    The ones in the brackets "[xxx]" are search terms.  Just Ctrl+F and
  search using it;  example Ctrl+F for: [GYA]


    Legend:

    Cheapest to upgrade. Generic. But they're the only ones who can wear
    caps. Since only a few Patapon units differ in stat boosts, I just
    listed them all in a table.

    So the cheapest Rarepon from Patapon 1 is back... and it still sucks.
    It gets immune to freeze, sure, but apart from that, nothing else.
    20% Crit/KB/Cnc Ratio bonus is hardly worth anything.

    The farmer in the game.  No, seriously.  With that Cnc chance, just raise
    an army of Treepons then raise their Cncs as high as possible.  Bosses
    will almost not even get a chance to snap out of getting stunned over and
    over again.  Couple that with the fact that with each stun comes an item
    drop . . .

    Not to mention, the ridiculous (and best) HP growth.  Extremely easy to
    catch fire, seeing as they're trees (har har).

    Just look at the speed, it's ridiculous.  By the time you max out its
    level, you're down to a speed of 0.20s!  Equipping speed equipment like
    Winged Shield plus the haste mask brought my speed down to 0.02s!

    Don't get too excited though.  Even with ridiculously low speeds, they can
    still only attack up to twice in one Pon Pon Pata Pon, which can still be
    accomplished with Speed that's 1.00s or less.

    But you're not stuck to just regular pons.  What about a HERO YUMIPON?
    Remember, the rate that Hero Yumipon fires his arrows is directly affected
    by his Attack Speed during Hero Mode.  You'll be raining enemies with
    arrows this way. :)

    With the 2nd best HP bonus and the Crit/KB/Cnc Ratio immunity, Mofulmos
    can pretty much be called the tanks of the game... who are pyrophobic.
    Probably not even really meant to attack, given the high HP, low Damage
    growth and having a slower Speed.  Tatepons, maybe?  Just don't let them

    A very solid Rarepon.  It gets some great HP/Damage growth, AND also
    gets 50% more chance to deal a critical, knockback and stun enemies.
    Not only that, but it's also immune from Crit/KB/Cnc.

    If you don't have the patience to train Dragonpons, you can go for this.
    As its Lv10 description says, they're perfect, with NO weaknesses.

    Another new Patapon type.  This is pretty much the disabler in the game,
    with a whopping 300% Sleep Ratio and KB Ratio bonus.  Gets the generic
    HP/Damage growth, but it's not aiming for those areas anyways.

    The Angelpon was the "ultimate" Rarepon in Patapon 1, but it was
    outclassed by the Mogyoon's sheer power.  And now... it's still
    outclassed, in my opinion. While the whopping 400% Crit Ratio is great,
    it could use a bit more Damage bonus to make use of it.  Not to mention,
    it lost the Speed boost it had from Patapon 1.

    Make up for its lack of Damage by giving it a powerful weapon.

    One strange note is that in the description, it claims 20% Atk Spd boost,
    but it's not evident in the status screen.  I've yet to verify if there
    is actually a boost, or if it's simply a Movement Speed boost.

  Comment:

    The Mogyoons from Patapon 1 are back, and they're even more powerful than
    ever before.  Only one problem:  only the Max Damage increases, so you can
    get like 4-412 Damage for a Lv10 Moogyugyu with default equipment, so
    damage can get erratic.

    Could've been THE damage dealer if the Cnc Ratio went to Crit Ratio
    instead.  Still, great HP boost too.  Third only to the rams.

    - Correction for Dekapon Wanda requirements.  Should've been Dream
      Meat, not Leather.
 # Rolen74
    - Suggested that Wandas may actually be dogs, which makes sense, since
      having two rabbits is silly!
 # Desuasido
    - Not sure if I should include your fullname, but thanks for suggesting
      Gyabas as Dragons.
 # Leng
    - Same as Desuasido, dunno if I should put your whole name.
      Pointed out the Cnc Ratio error for Buhyokko.
 # EFG
    - No, not Epic Fail Guy.  Taught me how to count, lol.
 # ... and to YOU
    - For reading this FAQ. Thank you!

   @v1.0  -- Submitted.
          -- 12/13/2008
   @v2.0  -- MASSIVE UPDATE ZOMG
          -- Rewrote nearly everything.
          -- Prioritised important info and deleted unnecessary ones like
               material requirements per level (damn you! I spent so much
               time writing those ;_;)
          -- Stat comparison chart
          -- Best Rarepons for each type
          -- Updated names of Patapons and items
          -- Lots of other junk.
          -- 03/12/2009
   @v2.1  -- Added [EVO] "Evolution Map Mechanics"
          -- Corrected Wanda Dekapon requirements, plus description.
          -- Some other tiny corrections.
          -- Put Bests first, so there's less jumping to get to the
               details for a Rarepon.
   @v2.2  -- Major mistake on Mogyu item requirements.  I listed Material #4
               to require Lv3.  It should be Lv4.
          -- Correction on Buhyokko Cnc Ratio
          -- Changed Speed bonus  from raw numerics to percentage, since
               that's how Speed is actually affected.
          -- As per Desuasido's suggestion, I changed Gyaba from Fountain
               to Dragon, since it makes much more sense due to the 300%
               Ignite Ratio.
          -- Some text corrections here and there.
          -- 05/07/2009

   @note  -- Fixing typos never get revision numbers.
   @plan  -- "How many items and Kaching do I need to get everything? :3"
