The further you travel, the faster Roco Coins and Buddy Pods run out, and training a strong team only adds to the bill. A new beginner video from the Roco Kingdom team explains where to earn Roco Coins, how to get and craft different Buddy Pods, and how each part of Jini training works. Here is a practical breakdown.

Earn Roco Coins by catching and reviewing Jinies

Roco Coins are the main currency in Roco Kingdom. You spend them on Buddy Pods and on training, so a steady supply matters. The fastest source is catching Jinies:

  1. Every successful catch pays out a solid amount of Roco Coins.
  2. After a session, head to the Manabough and talk to Hoolu to review your recent catches. Each reviewed Jini earns more coins, and rarer Jinies pay more.
  3. Corrupted, Chromatic and Prismatic Jinies raise the reward multiplier.
  4. Catch Jinies while holding hands with another player and you also earn coins from your companion’s catches. Once they claim their rewards at the Manabough, the same rewards arrive in your mail.

If your balance is low, go out and catch, ideally with a friend.

Keep your Buddy Pods stocked

Catching takes Buddy Pods, and there are several ways to refill:

  1. Buy them at Annie’s Shop or from the Traveling Merchant.
  2. Craft them at the Alchemy Cauldron by combining minerals and plants found while exploring. Crafted pods are class-specific and raise your catch rate against certain classes. Solar Pods suit Flora and Light Jinies, while Net Pods suit Water and Wing Jinies and can also catch Jinies in the water.
  3. Gather crafting plants in the wild or grow them at Home: plant the seeds, water them and harvest when ready. Spare plants can be sold to Uncle Bobby for Roco Coins.
  4. Earn pods from battling NPCs and challenging Destined Blossoms.

A few special pods are worth knowing. Each season has its own commemorative pod that guarantees a catch. King’s Pod, Prism Pod and Seasonal Prism Pod also guarantee a catch and give the Jini Amazing Talent. The Prism Pod adds a random Prismatic appearance, and the Seasonal Prism Pod applies that season’s exclusive Prismatic effect. Look for these pods, or materials such as Prismatic Shards and Damaged King’s Pods, in chests, quest rewards and Codex rewards.

Train your Jinies the right way

Jinies of the same species can have different stats because of six Aptitudes: Health, Magic Attack, Physical Attack, Magic Defense, Physical Defense and Speed. Speed decides turn order when skill priority is equal. Damage dealers should favor Speed plus the attack stat their main skills use, while support Jinies and tanks lean on Health and both defenses. These are the main tools:

  1. Level: feed Tartpeaches, Zestfruits and Vinegrapes to raise Attributes and Aptitudes. The cap is level 60. Vinegrapes grow on trees in the wild and also come from releasing Jinies.
  2. Talent: a Jini can have bonuses of 7 to 10 points in up to three Individual Aptitudes. A Key of the Worthy changes which Aptitude gets a bonus or unlocks a new one at 8, and a Potential Unlocker adds 1 to any bonus below 10.
  3. Personality: each Personality raises one Attribute and lowers another. Focused, for example, boosts Magic Attack but cuts Physical Defense. Specific items can adjust both effects.
  4. Growth and stars: spend Magical Dust and Class Shards to raise growth values and star level. At level 60 and five stars, Awakening further boosts offense and defense.
  5. Skills: Jinies learn new skills as they level, and Skill Tablets unlock others listed on their profile.
  6. Specialties: shown on the Attributes page, these give gathering or battle perks. A Jini with Sharer helps you gather more materials while it follows you, and one with Shared Ride can carry another Roco.

Where to start

Start by catching Jinies, ideally with a friend, and reviewing them with Hoolu to build up Roco Coins. Grow your own plants so you can craft class-specific pods, then pick a role for each Jini before spending training materials. You can find the full video on the official Roco Kingdom channels.
