⚡ What its ability does
Every 2 minutes at base weight, the Chubby Chipmunk eats a fruit from your garden and gains a little weight itself (0.009 kg at base). It skips favorited and single-harvest fruit. An Acorn then spawns somewhere; collect it for a random reward.
During the event, players could start a Nutty Fever weather that cut the cooldown to 30 seconds.
📝 Special rules
- The Levelup Lollipop doesn't change its weight or cooldown.
- The Mimic Octopus can't copy it.
- Pets that advance cooldowns, such as the Peacock, don't affect it.
- The wiki says they can now be traded with trading tickets.
