A Kymera's Species describes the type of animal that it is. Species also determineswhich of the Kymera's skills will benefit from their specific Species Bonuses.
A Species Bonus is an added boost to a skill if used by a Kymera of the same species as the bonus. Species Bonuses can range from adding Base Power to causing a skill to enhance its user's stats. The full range of Species Bonuses can be viewed on the pages for each species.
Each skill uses only one Species Bonus and only if used by a Kymera of the same species as the bonus. For instance, a skill cannot apply a Beast 1 bonus if used by a non-Beast Kymera. This skill will not apply a Beast 2 bonus.
