I froze when the silhouette blinked—one small curve and my brain supplied a name. You can feel the event timer nudging you toward a guess. I had a hunch and a single snap to prove it.
I write guides because I don’t want you wasting captures on the wrong Aniimo. You’ll finish this event without stress if you follow three simple habits: read the clues, watch the silhouette fill, and fire your camera when the hint count is low.

How to solve the Who’s That Aniimo clues
I’ve watched players pause over the event screen and mutter through each hint.
The Who’s That Aniimo event is short and forgiving: six clues total — a silhouette that gradually reveals itself, then five word hints. The silhouette is a skeleton key. Each word points at one of the Aniimo’s properties: element, stage, pathfinding traits, combat tendency, and form.
How do I solve the Who’s That Aniimo clues?
Read the clues in order. The silhouette starts incomplete and fills as you use hints; the five words are direct descriptors. For this run the clues read:
- Earth Element
- Lumin Stage
- No special Pathfinding abilities
- Break
- Basic Form
Those clues point to one answer: Budclaw. Your task is simple: find a Budclaw in the world and take its photo through the Investigation UI. If you’ve ever used the capture tools on Twitter/X or posted to Discord, this is the same step—aim, steady, snap.
All Who’s That Aniimo event rewards
I once watched someone cheer when a tiny consolation reward popped after a perfect capture.
The event hands out five rewards while your Investigation rank climbs. Clues are breadcrumbs leading out of a maze. You don’t need rare spawns or advanced kit — Budclaw is common in the beginner zones, especially Breezy Plains, so this is a quick win if you play casually or if you’re checking event rewards on Moyens I/O or community guides.
What rewards does the Who’s That Aniimo event give?
Here’s every reward and how to get it:
- Investigation Rank 1: 50 Glimmer
- Investigation Rank 3: 1 Tumbler
- Investigation Rank 5: 1 Wonder Egg
- Snap Budclaw before the silhouette completes: 50 Breezy Plains Dewdrop Crystal
- Photograph the correct Aniimo (Budclaw): 100 Sparking Crystal
Quick notes: the first reward triggers the moment you photograph Budclaw for the first time. If you manage an early capture — before all hints are revealed — you score that Dewdrop Crystal bonus for extra value. Share your capture on Discord channels or tag it on X for a little social proof; community praise travels faster than you’d think.
If you want to clear this without hunting every spawn, park yourself in the Breezy Plains and watch the Lumin-tier Aniimo paths until a Budclaw wanders into frame. You’ll finish the Investigation in minutes and leave with free goods.
So, are you going to wait until the silhouette fills, or will you take the risky early shot and brag about it on Discord?
