Should I Metamorphose to Final Form (from First Form)?

I got a handful of Jumbo Drops that allow me to change my familiar to its final form, but I'm wondering if doing this is a good idea to do so from the first form? Am I missing out on anything?

You need to first level up your familiars to a point where you can even metamorphose (evolve) them in the first place. Unfortunately, you can't skip straight to Final Form from First Form, there's still one Intermediate form you need to evolve to, and level up, to reach the final form.

Edit: Also, for a slightly more technical answer, it would be better to wait to metamorph until your familiar has learned all of the tricks that it can at that stage. For example, Destroceros, the 2nd form of the strongest melee familiar in the game, can metamorph at about level 10, but learns belly buster, one of the strongest offensive tricks, at level 16. So really, as far as I know, it comes down to the level of flexibility you want to have with your familiars.

Thank you.

I didn't know certain abilities were tied to specific forms. This makes sense.

I'm fairly new to the game and about 15 hours in.
