I should not even open this site and just focus on important stuff instead but:

I actually found where I indeed got the idea to invest in Gen to begin with.
The latter half of the rules on page 4 Reads as follows:

Full quote [+]

Generation Points can not be increased with Battle Exp, and must be invested in at character creation, or gained by learning Species-Relevant information, performing DNA Digivolution(Jogress), or, if the setting allows, absorbing data from a compatible opponent. (In settings where Player-versus-Player situations occur, Generational penalties may be awarded from the loser to the winner, but may not be put fully out of commission until the Generation Value equals 0.)

Thus leading to my misconception (or just plain reading from rule book) that one would (and probably should) invest in gen to begin with.

That said; @tobiax has a (kinda) point
<Snipped quote by tobiax>
It's just maybe some would indeed be more complex coming from (probably?) a data stream, while fresh, some "base code" is more complex than others but I'll drop it at that and go with generation value of 1 (I guess?)

I just might end up changing the Baby 1 too though (as said, I've only give some thought for this)

Each Family has certain Features available to its members. Some are automatic and need no specific investment, while others need to be expressly chosen. Features can allow altered modes of transportation, such as flying, swimming, or burrowing underground, unique fighting abilities, and other ways of making a Digimon unique. Each Digimon species may start with a single Feature from those available to it based on its Families, regardless of any drawbacks that may be applied. Digimon with a maximum level below Ultimate(5) may not be allowed more than three (3) features. No Digimon may have more than five (5) Features in effect at any one time, regardless of if effects are passive or active.

However, the player may gain two bonuses of 2*Level to any stat if at least one bonus is greater than one for each stat from at least one of the Families.

@tobiax I don't quite understand this either, do enlighten me.

@tobiax Then I believe you have confused the definitions of "may" and "must".

@Iatos How lenient will you be on "retraining"? Like on a per level basis, between plot points, or simply add a feature any time a slot's empty?
