Catch a Brainrot Terminology

The collectible creatures in Catch a Brainrot. You weaken wild Brainrots in battle, then catch them with a Rot Box. There are 45 species across 5 rarity tiers.

The catch item used to capture wild Brainrots after weakening them. Rot Boxes come in 4 tiers — Basic, Advanced, Premium, and Ultra — and higher tiers unlock rarer catches.

Your core battle resource. Most abilities cost between 2 and 6 Energy. Energy is generated with Charge and spent on attacks, shields, and heals.

A battle move that costs Energy. ${GAME.name} has 17 abilities, from the free Charge to the 6-Energy Whirlpool finisher.

A large named area of the map with its own Brainrot population. The game has four zones: Rot Forest, Snow Forest Zone 1, Snow Forest Zone 2, and Rot Lab.

A powerful fixed encounter guarding a zone. Known bosses include Bombombini Gussini, Torrtuginni Dragonfrutinni, and Graipussi Medussi. They have predictable patterns you must shield against.

How rare a Brainrot is. The 5 rarity tiers are Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Insane. Higher rarities are harder to catch and require better Rot Boxes.
