For those who aren't aware, you can level pups through the use of exp giving companions. You can also use more than one of the same companion. This will speed up companion levelling, giving you level 10 companions (and thus higher exp rewards) much more quickly.

The cheapest exp companion is the Radiant Kuzma (3000 pebbles) Basidio (450 pebbles) so once you have several at level 10, you can easily level up multiple pups before they are grown.

The cheapest familiar is the Basidio, at only 450pebbles. I am amassing an army to train all the pups as high a level as possible before they grow up.

Another one with a basidio army, here. Those frogs are worth more than their weight in gold. lol

Corrected to Basidio, thanks!

Another here with XP companion Army! Makes training them to 10 that much easier with NO food involved.

Just to make sure people see it.

I also dropped this info in the optimal level guide! Food costs are claimed to make leveling inefficient, but when you don’t spend food it’s fine.

I can't believe the current leveling meta is frogs. This is amazing.

Yes, I grab a Basidio every time I see one in the MM and level up pups passively. It's the BEST.

This plan is so genius omg...i need to start building a frog army to speed along my breed - level - release plans

What the heck... Basidios just keep winning!
