# Line-up Strategy

***Each team consists of 3 pets.*** 

**⭕️Tips**

Strategy 1️⃣: If there are two pets of the same species in the team (2 of the 3 pets are of the same species), all pets gain +15% health and +15% attack. If all three pets are of the same species, all pets gain +40% health and +40% attack. 

Strategy 2️⃣: Adjust the team's species based on the enemy monster's specie. There is a cycle of four species that restrain each other. In the restraint relationship, the attacker gains a 25% damage boost. 

**\*Note** The restraint relationship only applies in individual battles (for example, when a bat attacks a tree, the animal-plant restraint relationship takes effect). 

(See "[🌱Species](/gameplay/collect-and-catching/pet-attributes.md#species)" for restraint relationship)
