The Dolphin is a tier 9 animal. It is based on its real life counterpart, the Common Bottlenose

Mechanics[]

Mahi-mahi evolve into dolphins.
- 42,000 XP is required for a mahi-mahi to evolve into a dolphin.
Dolphins evolve into orcas and marlins, (player-determined).
- 48,001 XP is required for a dolphin to evolve into any of those animals.
Dolphins drop meat upon death.
As a dolphin, friendly fire is turned off for other dolphins: meaning you cannot damage them nor be damaged by them.

Abilities[]

Passive Abilities[]

Name	Image	Description
Breaching		Jumping above the surface gives you +33% speed each time (stackable 3 times).

Suitable Biomes[]

The suitable biomes for the dolphin are the ocean and the ocean surface.
- If a dolphin enters the ocean, it will lose oxygen; however it can swim and its oxygen time is long enough for this to not matter.
- If a dolphin enters the arctic, it will lose oxygen and temperature.
- If a dolphin enters the arctic surface, it will lose temperature.
- If a dolphin enters the deeeep, it will lose oxygen and pressure.
- If a dolphin enters the swamp, it will lose oxygen and salinity.
- If a dolphin enters the swamp surface, it will not regenerate salinity.

Diet[]

This is a complete list of food that dolphins can eat.

Name	Can be eaten by	XP	Description
Barb	All except for the stonefish who spawned it	0	Spawns behind a stonefish using their active ability. Deals damage upon eating it (7% of max life). Poisons anyone who eats it with a base DPS of 10% that lasts 5 seconds (except poison-immune animals). Despawns after 4 seconds.
Bubble	All animals that breathe air	0	Affected by gravity, floats upwards. Spawns out of the window of the shipwreck. Replenishes oxygen to animals that breathe air.
Bird Poop	All except for lamprey and seagull	10	Affected by gravity. Automatically spawns below any seagull every 10 seconds.
Plankton	All	25	Spawns in the ocean.
Ice	All	50	Spawns in the arctic and deeeep.
Volcano Food	All except lamprey	125	Affected by gravity, floats upwards. Spawns out of volcanoes, which can be hidden in and are located in the arctic and the deeeep. When eaten as an animal that is not suited to the arctic, it will replenish some of your temperature.
Person	Tier 9 to tier 10 except sunfish and stonefish	300	Spawns just above the water. Does not spawn in the arctic.
Flappy Duck	Ray to tier 10	675	Spawns in a horizontal line just below the height limit.
Anglerfish Bait	All Animals except for the Anglerfish who spawned it	0	Spawns infront of an Anglerfish when it is stationary (as its passive ability). No fixed look, resembles the last food the Anglerfish eats. It does nothing too, but the Anglerfish will deal twice as much damage (100x2, therefore 200) to the animal that ate it
Meat	All	1000	Spawns where an animal dies (tier 2 to tier 10 animals only). The amount of meat that spawns depends on what animal it was.

Hiding Places[]

This is a complete list of terrain that dolphins can hide in.

Name	Summary	Image
Abandoned House	Does not generate randomly, one abandoned house always appears in a specific location to the left of the deeeep floor. Tier 1 to tier 9 animals can hide here.
Shipwreck	One shipwreck always appears on one of the dirt islands that border the ocean and deeeep. Tier 1 to tier 7 animals(and hammerhead) can hide here. Produces bubbles that can be eaten.
Shipwreck	One shipwreck always appears on one of the dirt islands that border the ocean and deeeep. Tier 1 to tier 9 animals can hide here. Produces bubbles that can be eaten. Distinguishable from the shipwreck above by comparing the shape of the windows.
Giant Shipwreck	Generates in any biome. All animals can hide here. Hiding places are ship windows and the crack.

Skins[]

Skins are cosmetics used to change an animal's looks, or sometimes, an animal’s biome or size statistics slightly. The table below shows the list of approved skins that can be used for the Dolphin.

Realistic skins can be used in every time of the year. They are mostly based on real-life species, or adjectives such as 'Battle-Scarred' or 'Dark'.

Due to its small size, this dolphin's metabolism is up to three times higher than orcas and other dolphins, causing them to eat greater amounts of food. This dolphin also often swims upside down to sneak up on prey from below - including squids, shrimp, and silversides. Collab with monsieur stuff and Tacoco 💗

Seasonal skins can only be used in certain seasons, such as Christmas, Lunar New Year etc. They will disappear from the Store once the Season is over, but will be back next year, and remain in the player's inventory if they bought them.
