The Lab System is a major part of Spectrobes. It is here that you will awaken, grow and evolve the Spectrobe fossils you have found in the field. Upon opening the Lab System has four main areas: Line Up, Incubator, Library and Awaken.
Line Up[edit]
Here, you can set and remove Spectrobes into your Prizmod. Spectrobes can be set into these categories:
- Search (Only child Spectrobes)
- Battle (Limited to two)
- Support (Limited to four)
- Note: the line-up section of the lab is different than the line-up system of your Prizmod. In the lab, you can switch out any Spectrobe in your party for any Spectrobe not currently in the incubator. In your prizmod, you can only switch the order of your Spectrobes.
Incubator[edit]
The Incubator is where you raise, feed and evolve your Spectrobes. Initially the Incubator is quite basic, only allowing you to feed and pet your Spectrobes, but as you make your way through the game you unlock expanded content. Once you have progressed through the game you will find cubes that will allow you to update the Lab System and the Incubator. The first addition is the ability to evolve Spectrobes from adult to evolved form. The second addition is the ability to put Custom Parts onto your Spectrobes. You get Custom Parts off of a fossil via barely damaging a fossil during excavation, the Card Input System or off of Wi-Fi. The third addition is the ability to select different terrains which are tailored to each property. These terrains can decrease the amount of time needed in the Incubator to evolve, increase the effect of Minerals and raise your Spectrobes happiness greatly.
Library[edit]
The library hosts the Spectrobes Server, the Custom Parts Server, the Database and the ability to alter the names of your Spectrobes. The Spectrobes Server allows you to view all of the Spectrobes you own that are not acrive in the Incubator or stored in the Prizmod. You can sort the Spectrobes on the server by Form, Class or Level. The Custom Parts Server allows you to view all of the Custom Parts in your possession. Custom parts that are attached to a Spectrobe do not appear on the server. The Database holds information about all of the Spectrobes. Here you can view the Spectrobe, each of it's custom colors and it's Custom Parts. The database can be held in comparison to the Pokédex of the Pokémon games.
Awaken[edit]
It is here that you will awaken your Spectrobes. Spectrobes are awakened by the sound of your voice. To start the process touch the start button on the touch screen. To awaken the fossil, you must match your voice to the volume required shown on the voice meter. After proceeding through the game you will find a cube that will unlock the Color Awakening feature. Once you have unlocked this feature, a switch will appear on the lower left corner of the screen. During Color Awakening the voice meter will change to have three different colors. Whatever color the meter was at when the countdown reaches zero is the color your Spectrobe will be. When you excavate a fossil with between 80%-50% minergy left, the fossil will come with a Custom Part (if you excavate a fossil with 25% minergy, it has a large chance of coming with a custom part, but it won't always). The percentage of Minergy left in the fossil influences what Custom Part you receive from the fossil.
