Battling is a game mechanic introduced in My Singing Monsters 3.0, and is a feature tied to The Colossingum.
Up to 3 of your Monsters take part in musical battle, using their singing power to deplete their rivals' Stamina before they do the same to yours.
Battle (despite its name) is a non-violent competition, and Monsters that lose all of their Stamina go to sleep unharmed.
There are two types of battle:
- Quests: You battle with bots to win rewards
- Versus: You battle with other players, or with friends just for fun. (Started Friday, December 4th)
In the battle your monsters can use 2 different types of movements
- Musical movements
- Elemental movements

Gameplay
Simply speaking, a certain amount of ally Monsters are selected to a Battle, and their role is to eliminate the other team's Monsters by draining all their stamina. Each move drains a certain amount of stamina, and it can be increased or decreased with certain elemental interactions between the type of move and the enemy monster's elements. There is roughly up to ±10% damage deviation in how much damage a monster does, which is actually quite large considering that RNG may turn the tides of the battle in favor or against the favor of the player.
Strength of Monsters
Monster damage depends on how many elements the monster has:
- Single Elementals deal base damage
- Double Elementals deal double damage
- Triple Elementals deal triple damage
- Quad Elementals deal quadruple damage
Monster damage resistance depends on how many elements the monster has:
- Single Elementals have no damage resistance, and therefore will be affected by full damage.
- Double Elementals have no damage resistance, and therefore will be affected by the same thing as for single-elementals.
- Triple Elementals have 1/4 of damage resistance, which means it will only become inflicted by three quarters of the damage.
- Quad Elementals have 1/2 of damage resistance, so damage dealt to a Quad will be halved.
Elemental Strengths
- is Strong against but Weak against
- is Strong against but Weak against
- is Strong against but Weak against
- is Strong against but Weak against
- is Strong against but Weak against
Overall, weaknesses take priority over resistances. An example is that even though a Congle or a Quibble would’ve been neutral against Plant with Air and Water contradicting each other, it’s actually weak against Plant, so if a Congle or a Quibble is used as a CPU, using Plant-element attacks are useful because of this.
Notes
- The message, "Try training your Monsters to higher levels, or adding new Monsters to your team." is misleading because you may have already upgraded that Monster to the highest level or if you have the same monsters again.
- If this is tried with a Level 20 monster and then you lose, the message for admitting defeat appears and if you follow that, an error message will appear, saying that this Monster has reached the maximum Training level for now, due to the losing message misleading.
- This line is never changed if any monster including the Seasonals reaches level 20.
- If the player reaches the maximum level and winning a battle, an overjoyed Furcorn will appear.
- The idea of certain elements beating other elements (as well as monsters fighting using up to four differnet learned moves) could possibly be based off of the Pokémon franchise, in which some of the elemental matchups are identical (Plant being strong against Water, etc.)
- Strengths and weaknesses are possibly based on what elements aren't on which islands. So for example, Cold is weak against Water because it is not on that island, and is strong against Earth because it is on that island. However, following this logic, Plant and Air would be strong against each other (Even though Plant is weak against Air) and Earth would not be strong against Air (Because Tweedle exists on Earth island and Noggin exists on Air island.). Also, even if Water is not on Earth Island, it is not weak to Earth.
- Strengths and weaknesses are also based on their element order, regardless of the single element's letter. (Earth < Cold < Water < Plant < Air < Earth)
