Generation
Every Waja in the game has a generation. To describe a Waja's generation, the word generation is usually abbreviated "Gen." A Waja that was custom-made through using a token is a generation 1 Waja. A Gen 1 is the only type of Waja that has no parents, so all other Wajas are either directly or indirectly descendant from generation 1 Wajas.
A Wajas' generation is always one higher than the generation of the parent with the higher generation. For example, the offspring of a Gen 1 Waja and another Gen 1 Waja will be a Gen 2 Waja. However, the offspring of a Gen 1 Waja and a Gen 2 Waja will be a Gen 3 Waja.
While generation does not affect the appearance of Wajas, custom wajas (generation 1) are the most expensive of all Wajas because of the cost of creating a custom Waja. Usually, Gen 2 pups born from two Gen 1 parents are more expensive than later generation Wajas. In general, Wajas with lower generations are considered more valuable.
Many players choose to only buy Wajas that are below a certain generation. Other players, however, consider generation only a number.
Age
The age of a Waja is measured in days. These days in a Wajas age correspond to real days, so it takes 5 real days for a Waja to grow 5 days older.
When a Waja is born, its age begins at 1 day. Until it reaches 5 days old, the Waja is considered a pup, and you cannot see any of the colors, markings or mutations on the Waja. When the Waja reaches 5 days old, it is considered an adolescent or teen, and you can see the base color and eye color of the Waja. At 12 days old, the Waja is considered an adult, and you can see the final Waja image and all colors, markings, and mutations on the Waja. However, the Waja cannot breed until it reaches 20 days of age.
The items Black Candy and Age Pear increase a Waja's age. A Black Candy adds 1 day to the age while an Age Pear adds 20 days to a Waja's age.
