Base HP (Health Points): 1.4x per Level-Up
Base MP (Magic Points): 1.4x per Level-Up

Base Speed: 1.2x per Level-Up
Stat Points: 5+ per Level-Up

Basically a mix between RPG games that I got the stat system for. There is only five stats and that's all there ever will be, since I don't want to copy Pokemon by having a second set of attack and defense stats. The Level-Cap, while at 100 in Gen I, increases with each generation until a final set cap of 1,000, after which the stat caps are 9,999, which is also the stat cap in all Generations. The highest base value a stat can have is 24 for HP and MP, and 20 for Attack, Defense, and Speed. Grandis defines this by having each of his stats at those values as his base stats (24/24/20/20/20). HP and MP are no duh going to be higher than the normal stats, but despite how it looks, there is a secret stat: Luck. Luck does not increase normally, and has a different value depending on the rank of the Zauridon:


Normal Zauridon (Spinersuchus, Hardheadasaur, Etc.): 5 Base Luck.
Starter Zauridon (Carnivosaur, Glidosaur, etc.): 10 Base Luck.
Beginning Starter Zauridon (The first Zauridon obtained in that save): 12 Base Luck.
Upgraded Normal Zauridon: 15 Base Luck.
Upgraded Starter Zauridon: 20 Base Luck.
Beginning Upgraded Starter Zauridon: 24 Base Luck.
Super Starter Zauridon (Devisaur, QZDragonsaur, etc.): 25 Base Luck.
Beginning Super Starter Zauridon: 30 Base Luck.

Super Upgraded Starter Zauridon (Not until Gen III): 40 Base Luck.
Beginning Super Upgraded Starter Zauridon (Not until Gen III): 42 Base Luck.

Lesser Legendary Zauridon (Anomalys, Obanys, Lagganys, etc.): 45 Base Luck.
Legendary Zauridon (Alienasaur, Emperius, etc.): 55 Base Luck.
Uber Legendary Zauridon: 65 Base Luck.
Grandis: 100 Base Luck.

1 Base Luck is basically 1% for a Rare Effect to be dropped by the enemy Zauridon, such as Double Cash, Double Exp., and also dropping Eggs. Out of these three, each has their own percentage of occurring:
70% chance of an Egg being dropped.
20% for Double Cash to be rewarded.
7% for Double Exp. to be earned.
2% for both Double Cash and Double Exp.
1% for all three bonuses.

Now of course, the hardest to obtain Zauridons have the higher Luck values, while the more common ones have smaller chances of the bonuses happening. Note, even with all three party Zauridons, the Luck value used to determine this is the highest base Luck out of the three, completed unaffected by the Luck of the other two Zauridons in the party.

Now then, we get to stat points. In addition to stats increasing upon Level-Up, you are awarded 5 stat points for each Level-Up. These points can be distributed into the five stats at any time given time when they're available, so of course you can chose to put 1 stat point in each stat, or choose a custom amount for the stat points to be used for your Zauridon's stats. As Luck is not considered a true stat in this game, it is ignored in this hence why there is only 5 stat points for each Level-Up. The highest possible value with the Stat Caps in Generation I is 915 for HP and MP, and 911 for Attack, Defense, and Speed. Not this is only if you choose to max out only a single stat. When the Level-Cap becomes 1,000, the highest possible is 9,015 for HP and MP, and 9,011 for Attack, Defense, and Speed. Again, these are only the values for when a single stat is maxed out over the other stats.

Other Notes:
-The Level-Cap is lower in earlier Generations because of lack of Zauridon variety. Of the Generations planned, currently at five (But it'll go BEYOND this, trust me), there will be 200 Zauridons, not including alternate modes at all at that, so hence the Level-Cap is higher because of more content in the game, and because of that some Zauridons from Generation V are SPECIFICALLY designed for Leveling up to 1,000 in terms of the Levels they're encountered at and their Exp. Yields. Need I mention if Grandis is transferred all the way from Gen I, the Uber Legendary of that Generation, which is Level 1,000 in the Wild, turns into a 10% encounter random encounter enemy after it's faced the first time as a boss?

In Gen III's storyline, the X Upgrade has become increasingly common, to the point extreme versions of the item were made to enhance the original test subjects of it even further than intended. It succeeded, but the forms are not permanent. Meanwhile, the X Upgrade was used to create many new species of Zauridons (All but two Zauridons in this Generation are not related to another species). The main storyline focuses on the experimentation of Slenderman by the same scientist thought to have been dead since Emperius broke loose in the 1st Gen. In the process he creates modified clones of HABIT, The Rake, and Slenderman as well as new Zauridons. However, while all three are the final bosses, Slendreadead isn't destroyed until another battle later, in which it is destroyed by the Super Mode of one of the Upgraded Gen I Starters, afterwards the eggs of all three are obtained. The post-game revolves around an Alien that mysteriously appears on the planet, and ultimately this alien, dubbed Thingaros, is faced as the 100% completion Secret Final Boss. However, unlike Grandis and Evilis, both of whom it's related to stat wise and story wise, it makes frequent appearances before you face him, but he doesn't appear until after the main storyline. This Generation features 35 Zauridons to make a total of 100 Zauridons as of this Generation.

Info:
He is the main antagonist of the Zauridon games. Secretly having been doing all the villainous work from behind the scenes since Gen I, it becomes slightly more obvious with each later Generation that somebody is pulling the strings behind all the chaos in the Zauridon realm. In Gen II, Evilis hints as to working for someone else, despite every other Zauridon having been seen up to that point. In Gen III, no human was capable of gaining the essence of Slenderman, Rake, and HABIT to the point copies could be made of them. In Gen IV, the final bosses are entirely mechanical Zauridons, and they are about to reveal the name of their creator until they go offline before they could finish. In a secret message in Gen IV, however, it is made clear that whoever is in charge is finally going to make an appearance, and that is when Gen V begins, starting off right away with a battle against DeltaMaster with whatever was in your team before you started the Gen V quests (Except for few that have to be re-obtained each Gen), and depending on whether you win or loss determines the difficulty of this Generation's storyline. It ultimately ends with DeltaMaster's death, but he assures the player that his legacy will live on forever, as after all, "life finds a way", and indeed it shall. His armor, due to it being a Zauridon, can be obtained at some point later, and thus be used as a Zauridon in your team of three in a party at a single time. Though he is Metal Element, expect to use mostly Ice, Thunder, and Fire Element attacks when using him in battle, or when facing him as the final boss, as he has an obsession with those three elements.

-In Gen I, if you choose Carnivosaur, and then nickname it "Heart", it'll have a different coloration, and not only that, but it'll have increased stats that pretty much outclass Yinyangasaur, and also more powerful abilities and moves.
-In Gen II, if your character name is Pewdiepie, Pewdie, or Bro (Which if it isn't, you CAN change in mid-game by a special NPC), you will notice several familiar statues in certain temples in the game. If your character isn't named one of those three, none of them will move. However, if you have the correct character name, then you will notice one or two of them will move. When interacting with one of these, they will greet you and begin a battle with a Zauridon called Stegano, which is homage to Stephano.
-In the same Generation as above, having Stegano in your party while also having the same character name, will result in several barrels in a secret chamber suddenly revealing themselves as the Zauridon Nautilarrel, which awaken from their disguises to face you. If you beat them using only Stegano, you will obtain one of these Nautilarrel. Note that both these codes can be done without the character name change, just that it'll be much harder to notice without Pewdie or Pewdiepie as a character name.
-In Gen III, you can occasionally bump into Slenderman or The Rake during the main storyline, but neither will attack and will instead flee. However, Slenderman flees in a specific manor as if it were luring you to somewhere. That somewhere is a dark forest with 8 Pages scattered around the area, and you have a time limit of 2 minutes to collect all 8 before Slenderman catches you. If you lose, you simply end up outside the forest, but not before a homage to the death cutscene of Slender The Eight Pages is played. While this isn't so much a secret as you return here after the main storyline, this is the only instance in which Slenderman will be the one to test you, rather than Slendreadead who takes it's place after the main storyline. If you do this with Slenderman being the one to test you, you'll be given a token that powers up Slendreadead when equipped. If you complete the test when Slendreadead gives it, you'll face Slendreadead than obtain it.
-Again, when you follow The Rake, the last time you bump into it you'll catch it in a conversation with HABIT, both talking about how things have been odd ever since a few years ago, but how somebody else seems to be entering the fray. They're about to mention who, until Rakreadead appears it challenges The Rake to a fight, The Rake seemingly killed by Rakreadead, as Rakreadead flees to meet up with Slendreaded for the final boss fight.
-In Gen IV, the final boss are based on combining Mecha, specifically the Megazord combinations of MMPR Season 1. If your character name is Geki, Goushi, Dan, Boi, Burai, (Male Characters), or Mei (Female Character), then you will see the final bosses speaking in Japanese and clearly acting sentient. This is a reference to Super Sentai, but what the Mecha's dialogue translates into being references to various other things as well, mostly in-jokes about both SS and PR.
-In Gen V, if you're named Pewdiepie, Yamimash, or Markiplier, DeltaMaster will reference numerous games that all three have played and how they played them before the final battle, all the while boasting about himself in the process.

The Leveling and Exp System:
In Gen V, Levels go from 1 to 1,000, but before this the level cap is lower but increases up to 1,000 by Gen V. In Gen I it's 100, in Gen II it's 200, in Gen III it's 300, in Gen IV it's 500, then finally Gen V has it at 1,000. So, how does the Exp Yields of Zauridons work in that case? For one, Zauridons each have their own Exp Yields based on the species. Alienasaur has the highest Base Yield at 1,500, and for every 100 levels that's doubled until a final base yield of 768,000 at Levels 901-1,000. The Exp given by a single Zauridon depends on the level of said Zauridon, in which they will have the Base Yield of that Level Range times the Level the Zauridon is. So, Alienasaur at Level 1,000 will give 768,000,000 Exp, and at Level 100 it'll give 150,000 Exp. Some Zauridons DO have higher Exp Yields than Alienasaur, but Alienasaur is the one that is the highest AND most common to train against. For instance, Emperius is 3,000, Terranadrosus is 2,500, Dragora is 4,000, and Grandis 10,000 when at the Level 1-100 Range.

Zauridons can either gain more or less Exp depending on the lead Zauridon's (Highest Leveled) Level compared to the Lead Opponent Zauridon (Also Highest Leveled). For every 1 Level between 1 and 100 that differs from the opponent, the party as a whole will receive 1% less or more Exp for each level from a range of 1 to 100 Levels lower or higher than the Lead Zauridon. After reaching certain Milestones, the levels of Wild Zauridons will increase to match the Levels of the Party Zauridons. To do this, you must have at least 3 Zauridons that reach a specific Level Milestone. After reaching the first, you'll unlock the option to bring along 3 more Zauridons with you, but they cannot battle at all unless swapped with the battle party, but only outside of battle. These Zauridons gain half the amount of Exp that the Battle Party gets, and the Anti-Grind effect on the Exp only goes up to 50% less or more Exp for Rest Zauridons in the party as well. After reaching specific Level Milestones, you'll also receive certain rewards, be it mere achievements or continuation of the storyline, as the final bosses of that Gen is very likely to be closer to the current level cap than anywhere near 100 except for Gen I.
