Can my chao reincarnate if he was 3?

Post by Least »

Hello, this is my first post so there might be problems with the post. :surprise:

So I have a chao who is 3 years old and i’m wondering if I can make him reincarnate. Also, what’s the required age for a chao to reincarnate?

Maybe!

There's no age requirement for a chao reincarnating, the only requirement is that a chao is happy enough (30+ points of happiness, I believe) before its life cycle ends.

Reincarnation only happens at the very end of a chao's lifespan, so it's a bit difficult to tell when exactly it will happen since some chao naturally live longer than others, but your chao probably still has a few chao years left.

If I remember correctly, the usual max age for a chao is 5 or 6.

To add on to the above post, if i remember correctly, Chao automatically die/reincarnate when they turn 6.

If I remember correctly, Chao have a life span remaining stat that varies from Chao to chao(and possibly from one incarnation to the next of the same Chao) and is affected by a few different stimuli. I don't remember the details, but I think Chao die or reincarnate whenever this number reaches zero. Fusion, arguably the greatest person to ever study the coding of Chao, posted a thread on the subject many years ago, but I don't know if it ever made it to the main site(many of Fusion's old threads were quite technical and more relevant to those curious about the underlying programming than those just interested in raising Chao).

Anyways, while a Chao life-span varies, and I believe even the duration of a Chao year varies, Most Chao reach end of life between 5 and 6 Chao years or about 15-20 hours in the same Garden as the Chao since it hatched.

So yeah, unless its unusually short lived, you're three-year-old Chao probably has at least another five hours of play time until it reincarnates.

The length of the Chao's adult life span is also determined based off of how you take care of them as a child, because giving them a lot of fruit while they're a child actually make them an adult for a longer amount of time, so maybe not giving them very much could result in them reincarnating as early as age 3, but I've never tried to go for it specifically. However, I am pretty sure that they can reincarnate at 4 if this is the case (although I might be wrong).

Just remember, Age has nothing to do with when a Chao will die/reincarnate. It is only a measurement of how long it has lived in its current lifespan

The only ones who can't reincarnate are chaos chao and character chao, cause they literally can't die

So for the character or chaos Chao, is there an age where it will max out and stop counting?

If you have been with your Chao 15 or 20 hours, it technically will reincarnate. Note that you need +30 happiness in the DreamCast, and +50 in modern games! Hope i helped you.
Why we cannot have a Sonic Adventure 3? I mean... it could be cool...stop saying werid things, SEGA, and make the freaking sequel!!
