Growing Strange

Growing Strange (進化の古代マタタビ, Shinka no Kodai Matatabi, Evolution Ancient Actinidia) is a Catfruit gathering event that is available on all days of the week, but only for a period of time. By clearing any of the second stages, you will get an Elder Catfruit Seed, or on rare occasions, an Elder Catfruit. This event is only available after clearing Stories of Legend. All stages are listed as Merciless, but in the Japanese and Traditional Chinese versions, they were once listed as Deadly.

Note: Because the second stages are all continuations, it is impossible to use Battle Items, (except for Speed Ups) in any stage except the first. The player also cannot edit their lineup in any way between stages. Each Continuation Stage provides the player with an Elder Catfruit Seed, while the possibility of obtaining an Elder Catfruit is only 1%.
