How to Get Mermarintchi
Shell required: Blue Water — this character cannot be obtained on any other shell.
Step 1 — Feed the right food during the Kid stage
Feed: any Water food type (Seafood, Seaweed, or Plankton) — just not a Pellet-only diet
This ensures your Tamagotchi becomes one of the qualifying Young types: Glide, Leap, or Paddle Young
⚠️ Float Young cannot become Mermarintchi
Step 2 — Connect to two different shell colors during the Young stage
While your Tamagotchi is a Young, physically connect your Paradise device to two different shell colors. For example, one Blue Water and one Pink Land. The connections can happen back-to-back. What happens during the connection doesn’t matter — the secret character flag is triggered by the act of connecting, not the outcome.
Step 3 — Evolve
After both connections, your Young will evolve into Mermarintchi instead of a normal adult.
Timing: The Young stage lasts 24 hours. Both connections must happen within that window. Don’t wait until the last minute.
Troubleshooting:
– Double-check you’re on the right shell — Blue Water only
– Make sure you actually fed a specific food type during Kid (Pellets only = wrong Young type)
– Both connections must be to two different shell colors — two connections to the same color don’t count
– The connections must happen during the Young stage, not Kid or Baby
Fun Facts
Blue Water exclusive. Was briefly visible in the Tamagotchi Paradise comic before being removed from the official website to preserve the surprise. Float Young cannot become Mermarintchi — you must be feeding a food type during the Kid stage.
About This Character’s Field
The Water Field is the starting field on the Blue Water shell and unlocks on other shells as you level up your planet (at Level 4 or Level 6 depending on which shell you’re on). Water Field characters have seafood, seaweed, and plankton-based evolution paths, plus the Float Species for no-food-preference players.
