Tamer Elements and Statuses

Every partner and every move has one of eight elements. A partner can also carry one status.

Element chart

Rows attack, columns defend. 2 = super effective, 0.5 = resisted, blank = normal.

Attacker	Strong against (x2)	Weak against (x0.5)
Neutral	none	none
Fire	Ice	Fire, Lightning, Water
Ice	Lightning	Fire, Ice
Lightning	Fire, Water	Ice, Lightning
Poison	Neutral, Holy	Poison, Dark
Holy	Dark	Holy
Dark	Poison, Holy	Dark
Water	Fire	Lightning, Water

★

Different from the original game Dark moves are normal against Neutral, and Neutral moves are normal against Dark. Every other matchup follows the chart.

Statuses

A partner has at most one status, and a status never replaces another.

Status	Effect
Poison	Loses 1/8 of Max HP each turn end (Poison chance is halved against Poison and Dark)
Burn	Loses 1/16 of Max HP each turn end; physical attack halved. Fire partners cannot be burned
Freeze	Cannot act; 20% to thaw each turn; a Fire hit thaws it. Ice partners cannot be frozen
Sleep	Cannot act for 1 to 3 turns
Paralyze	Speed halved; 25% to lose each action. Lightning partners cannot be paralyzed
Stun	Loses exactly one action

Stat stages run from -6 to +6. Sleep and Freeze make binding 2.5 times easier, Poison, Burn and Paralyze 1.5 times (Capturing Monsters).
