How Yakumo passive work ?

[Stetside]

So if i have a Yakumo on my group it has a chance to pass his passive to captured pal ?

It manipulates probability, basically. If you have a Yakumo that has say, swift, runner, nimble, and noble on it, YOu have a higher chance of the pals you catch while fighting with him for those caught pals to expresse at least one of those traits. I don't know the exact numbers and chances. But I've heard it's like a 30% chance to get at least one trait, and like 1% to get all four.

I know it only works for traits that can naturally happen to a wild pal, so it won't help you find a cattiva with say legend or luck. But it will help you catch one with say musclehead. I also realize 30% sounds low, but considering how many traits there are in the game, that's actually a huge manipulation in your favor.
