Pick the balls you currently hold. The finder stops at those ingredients and shows what is still missing.

Held does not mean level 3. Each evolution requires both current ingredients at level 3 and a Fusion Reactor. This tool does not check slots, character rules or random offers.

How to evolve the new balls

  1. Get access to the expansion

    Own and install Risen Ballbylon, and complete the base game to open its content. The four new base balls are Beast, Force, Water and Wood; the other direct ingredients below already belong to the base game.

  2. Choose a pair and upgrade both balls

    Use the table or finder below to choose your target. Obtain both listed ingredients during the run and choose their repeat level-up upgrades until both are level 3. Holding a ball alone does not meet the level requirement.

    Official DLC upgrade-screen example. Force is offered as a New Ball; this is not proof of level 3, a Reactor selection or a guaranteed offer in every run.

  3. Check the offered ball’s name

    Read the ball’s name in the offer panel before choosing it. In the official example, the panel says New Ball: Force. You still need repeat upgrades to bring each chosen ingredient to level 3.

    A second crop of the same official example shows New Ball: Force. It identifies the offered ingredient, not a completed evolution.

  4. Select the Evolution

    Pick up a Fusion Reactor when one drops. Choose the named Evolution from the available options. A compatible evolution pair is not an ordinary mixed fusion; look for the target name. If building Mudslide from scratch, make Landslide from Stone + Earthquake, then raise Landslide and Water to level 3 for Mudslide.

What success looks like

The chosen target appears as your evolved ball. For Mudslide, the finished target is Mudslide, not its intermediate ingredient Landslide.

If it does not work

If the target is missing, recheck the exact pair, both current ingredient levels and DLC access. A missing ingredient still needs to be obtained during the run; this finder cannot guarantee random offers, reactor timing or character-specific slot legality.
