Nothing on a card is made up.

Which tokens become specimens

A Solana token joins the pool the first time we see it younger than 72 hours, with at least $5k liquidity, a website or an X account, mint and freeze authority off, and a GMGN rug ratio under 0.5. Launches with their own site and the ones that move come first. A specimen is born once; after that only its stats and stage change.

Sources: GMGN trenches (socials, duplicate counts, smart money, wash flags), Jupiter Tokens API (price moves, holders, organic score), DexScreener profiles (descriptions, links).

Stats

Each stat is a percentile from 1 to 100 among every specimen of the last 7 days, so a card says where a token stands among its peers, not how big it is.

HP

liquidity

ATK

volume 24h

DEF

holder spread

SPD

move 1h

SNS

smart money

DEF is 100 minus the share held by the top 10 wallets. SNS counts GMGN smart-money wallets; with no reading it sits at 1.

Types

Claude Haiku reads the token's name, ticker, description and website host and picks one of eight types, plus a one-line field note with no numbers in it. When the daily AI budget is spent, keyword rules decide. Echo is never chosen by AI: it is a rule.

Rarity

Fixed at birth from points a token earns by looking like a real project:

• · live product, up to 3: its own site, the site describes a working service, it links code, docs or a demo
• · official address, 2: the token address is printed on the project's own site
• · smart money, up to 2: one or more / five or more smart-money wallets
• · organic trading, up to 2: Jupiter organic score 50+ / 75+
• · X account, up to 2: 1k+ / 10k+ followers

Legendary is a trophy: it is set when a specimen reaches Elder, never at birth. Echoes are always Common.

Stages and dormancy

Larva at birth. Adult at ×3 market cap since it entered the pool, Elder at ×10. Stages never go back.

Dormant when liquidity falls under $1k or the market cap is down 90% from its peak. Awake again above −50% from the peak.

Echoes (copy-check)

Tokens that share a project website, a project X profile or the exact same name and ticker form one group. The official one is the token whose address is printed on that site. If none is, the oldest stands in and the group is marked "original not confirmed". Every other member is an Echo: grey, dashed, Common, linked to the original. GMGN duplicate counts are shown as a risk on the card even when the other copies are not in the Dex.

Dives and hunters

One free dive a day: 5 cards from the last 72 hours, drawn by Common 60%, Uncommon 25%, Rare 10%, Epic 4%, Legendary 1%. Keep 3 a day. A specimen you already hold gives 5 experience instead.

When a specimen you caught evolves after you caught it you score 10 (Adult), 30 (Elder) or 50 (Legendary), times up to ×3 if you caught it in its first hours (the bonus fades over 48 hours). Seasons last 4 weeks.

Battles

Every day at 18:00 UTC two specimens fight for 24 hours. They must be awake, not Echoes, hold $20k+ liquidity, show no wash-trading flag, and sit within ×3 of each other's market cap. A token fights at most once a week outside the bracket.

Score = 50% × price change + 30% × holder change + 20% × volume change, all relative to the start, so a small token never loses to a big one by definition. The bar refreshes every 10 minutes. If liquidity drops 70% or volume looks washed, the battle is void.

Picks are free: 10 points for a right pick plus 2 per streak step (up to +10). The weekly eight run Thursday to Sunday. No prizes for picks.
