Yeah, I know it sounds weird, but my Zorjil (Jill/Suezo) just got back from an errantry and I noticed the he sort of "devolved" and is shorter. I always measure him at the Drill screen to keep track of what stage he's in. He was at stage two, and now the top of his head moved from the middle of the "Run" box to the middle of the "Pull" box. He was Normal before and after the errantry, and he still makes decent gains in Meditate after he shrank. Has this happened to anyone else?

I've had the shrinkage happen to me once and only once, and it was involved in peaching
(when I was still learning how that worked). I used a Gold Peach on my Dragon a bit too early
(since I didn't know it knocked you BACK a year, I used it early in his prime), and he went back
to adolescent for 6 months. That's the only thing I can think of...

Same thing happened to me with my first silver peach usage. Nearly scared a few years' growth off the player, as well as the monster!

Can't be sure why it'd do it during an errantry, though. Maybe he's just moved down on the screen? I notice that they stand in different areas occasionally, making them look taller or shorter. The easiest way to measure them is at the 'feeding time', when they're standing against your barn.

The type of shrinking that mike is pointing out is the type of shrinkage that happens alot in the drills screen.

Whenever you enter that screen, it seems as if the monster adjusts itself in a different position everytime. Sometimes, the repositioning is minor and other times, it is noticely more significant. It seems like the monster has shrunk, but it's only the because the monster's position has changed slightly.

I find that measuring a monster's size in the drills screen is alot less reliable than the feeding screen.

I don't fallow the shrinking "warnings" anymore.My durahan Is half the size of epsilon(the henger in B class)and still going strong.

There are two reasons why a monster shrinks in battle, Anon. It is either that the monster isn't full grown or you've reset too many times. It actually does effect the strength of blows if it's shrunken by resets, but I've only seen this in "D" and "C" class. It may also be nothing more than a glitch in my version, but those are my findings.

My Icebergy (Baku/Tiger) shrank...during its prime ( he always scored 20 points in DEF = Hard Drill ) I fed him a gold peach...Thenafter, he shrank. He then scored 13-15 in his Hard Drill (def) for about 4 months. After that, he grew back then scored 20 in his HD.
