Kinu (#137) is a Nature /Mental Temtem.
It does not evolve into or from any other Temtem.

Description

Tempedia

The elusive Kinu are some of the rarest Nature Temtem in the Myrisles - to the point that some tamers think they're a mere legend. When they do show up, Omninesians treat them with the respect reserved for the guardian spirits of the Banyan.
