Levels are when Dogen learns each skill naturally. Skills marked Egg are inherited rather than learned, and can be passed on through breeding. Power ranks count every skill with a power value.

Innate passive skills

Dogen has no innate passive skill.

Every Pal of this species is born with these, on top of any rolled traits.
