## Likes

**Dilighta** is a fanmade Seasonal Monster for *My Singing Monsters* who celebrates the Triumphant Light season and is found on Mythical Island. It was added on November 29th, 2021 during Version 3.3.2. As a Seasonal Monster, it is only available at certain times.

On Mythical Island, it is best obtained by breeding Cataliszt and Yawstrich. By default, its breeding time is 1 day and 30 minutes. Dilighta has a good coin production compared to other Monsters there.

Dilighta can be teleported to Seasonal Shanty once fed to level 15, where it is best bred with Hoola and Carillong. Dilighta has a decent coin production and maximum income compared to other Monsters on Seasonal Shanty.

## Bestiary

Dilighta is a quadrupedal, bird-like Monster whose wings are on the sides of its body. Its feathers are mainly blue, with green-blue highlights on its head and wings. Dilighta's four legs are also noticeably darker, and have two toes on each foot. Spanning across its entire body are flowers (referred to as Lunablooms) of varying color, mainly pink, white, yellow, and purple. These flowers all have five petals each.

Dilighta carries on its back what seems to be two large and brown diya lamps, both emitting one tall, blue flame. Behind this is Dilighta's tail, which almost resembles a peacock's. It sprouts large, blue feathers with rich yellow markings.

Dilighta's face consists of a dark grey-blue colored beak, which has a slightly rounded shape and lacks nostrils. Its eyes have lavender pupils and possess long, elegant eyelashes. Under Dilighta's eyes are what appears to be three dots, which could either be facepaint or natural markings. Above Dilighta's head pokes out three blue appendages, which are the same color as its body. These appendages resemble fireworks, boasting twirling, black stripes, and having a cone shaped spike on top of them.

## Song

Audio Sample:

Instrument: Sitar

Dilighta's contributes the sound of an exotic sitar to the Seasonal Shanty and Mythical Island songs. On Mythical Island, it has a more echoed tone, playing in both the Sporerow verse and the second Strombonin verse with Anglow.

## Breeding

When available on Mythical Island, Dilighta can be bred with the following breeding combo:

 +  Cataliszt  and Yawstrich  (Can result in a Sporerow)

On Seasonal Shanty, Dilighta can be bred with the following breeding combos:

 +  Boo'qwurm  and Yool
 +  Monculus  and Schmoochle
 +  Carillong  and Hoola

Of these, Carillong + Hoola is the best combination, as, in case of breeding failure, Hoola has the lowest waiting time. Note that breeding Seasonal Monsters is not 100% guaranteed to get you Dilighta. You might have to try multiple times.

Every Monster has different things that they like. For every unique item they like that's placed near the Monster, its happiness will increase by 25%. Placing more than one of *the same liked item* near a Monster will still only increase its happiness by 25%. If there's a Unity Tree on the Island, items don't need to be near the Monsters and can be placed anywhere. Below are the things liked by Dilighta:

* shLep (requires level 9) ()
* Triumphant Light Path (level 19) ()
* Kab's Wax (level 16)
* Shrini (level 17)
* Mountain Morsel (level 10) ()

## Trivia

* Its Out of Season months are typically April or May.
* Strangely, Dilighta was created *after* the holiday it was based on had already passed.

## Notes

* On a livestream, several beta versions of Dilighta's design were shown.
	+ One concept appears drastically different to the current design, as it has a humanoid shape and bears no bird-like features. Its head resembles a diya lamp, and is red in colour.
		- What appears to be a backside view of the same concept design can also be seen in the image.
	+ Another concept, while retaining the bird-like look of the final design, is almost completely different in its body shape, and seems to feature djembes as its instrument.
