Token/Legacy

A Token is an item that can be directly purchased with Tikits or obtained through completing missions (the only exceptions are the Partial Mission Unlock and Full Mission Unlock Tokens, which cost ); or indirectly through Trade Realm. They are designed to perform some special action, usually on a creature. They may be accessed in the "Tokens" section in the main menu.
To use a token, click the blue button labeled "TOKENS" at the top of your Storage section (where you store creatures), then click on the model of the token you want to use. If it's a token such as Appearance Change Token, you may be requested to use it on a slot.
When using a token and being asked to confirm its use, tokens that target a slot will have the prompt end in "[...] on Slot #x?", whereas tokens that do not target a slot will not have a specific slot number mentioned, and will instead only ask if you want to use the token in general.
== Token Behaviors ==
Tokens are typically spent right away when used, but some may exhibit one or two unique behaviors before being spent.
=== Cancelable Behavior ===
Not to be confused with the "cancel" button option.
Tokens with Cancelable Behavior are not immediately spent when you confirm to use them. Instead, they will often open another interface or menu, and are then spent when an action is confirmed within that menu. An example of this type is the Appearance Change Token, which opens the customization menu when it's used. The token will not be spent when canceling your customization (such as clicking the "BACK" button or leaving the game) but is spent after confirming your customization (such as clicking the "PLAY" button).
=== Target A Slot Behavior ===
Tokens with Target A Slot Behavior will typically require you to select a creature slot before they can be used.
== Shop Tokens ==
These tokens can be purchased in the shop under the "Tokens" tab with their respective prices. Unlike other tokens, they usually don't have a physical form, and some can exhibit cancelable and/or target a slot behaviors. Some of these tokens can also be obtained through the Daily Login Rewards.

== Gacha & Exploration Tokens ==
These tokens, unlike other tokens, are used with an additional cost to spin a specific gacha. They are usually found as physical items in the in-game world and can be collected by touch. Only one can spawn at a time, with a new one having a chance to appear only when the last one has been collected or has despawned after ten minutes. Except for Session and Traveler's Gacha Tokens, which do not have physical forms and are instead obtained by completing specific tasks.
As of January 28th, 2023, these tokens were updated to have a cap of 50.

== Trivia ==
* The game previously had a Mutation Explorer Token and Gacha, which was later replaced with the Mecha Explorer Token and Gacha pairing with similar characteristics but different themes.
* The game previously had a Mutation Explorer Token and Gacha, which was later replaced with the Mecha Explorer Token and Gacha pairing with similar characteristics but different themes.
* The ERR_NULL_TOKEN item did not exist until the second Token content drop, as the system did not need it to work.
* Growth tokens cannot be used if the creature's age is already set to max.
* There was an exploit in the Random Gacha Spin Token that allowed users to rejoin and get free re-rolls by abusing the fact that the token was Cancelable (they would simply not pick a reward and rejoin if they didn't like the results, which meant the token wouldn't be spent). This exploit has been patched (except when you do this before an update and try again after it) via tracking the randomizer's iteration per-player, and so the results will always be the same until you pick the reward, then they are refreshed.
** As a cost, players with incredibly high iteration numbers (over 25,000 uses of this token) may experience a brief lag spike when using one of these tokens for the first time after joining a server.
* The "SPEEN!" in the description of the Random Gacha Spin Token is playing off a joke from Vinny on the Vinesauce YouTube channel, where it is commonplace for him to say "spin" in a strong accent whenever anything in a game is spinning. The token has a 7.5% chance of playing one of these sound clips, and the source of the specific sound can be found here.
* There was a bug in a patch released on April 17th, 2021 that caused players to be able to acquire Cottol through the Random Trial Creature token. Players who acquired it this way have had the creature removed, and the bug was fixed within a few minutes of its discovery. 
** At the time, Cottol had the DeveloperOnly tag. If normal players attempted to use it, it would softlock their game and require them to rejoin because the server would reject their attempt to spawn in, leaving them in limbo.
* There was a bug patched on September 17th, 2021 that caused the Appearance Change Token to be spent when clicking on it, despite what its tooltip stated. In this patch, all players were given two free Appearance Change Tokens as minor compensation for the bug.
