Well, I have a v4 and so far I'm on the second generation and my child was the same as the first generation.
*gets suspicios* Maybe.... maybe.... ummm..... maybe you could.... and I could.... well..... i don't know! ^_^ LOL In my previos generation my Tamagotchi was a petitchi as a child, (a panda looking thing) a Ringotchi as a teen, (an apple) and a Mimitchi as an adult! GO MIMITCHI! LOL!
and thanx! ill try better to take better care of my tama im di=oing that now ^_^ its a y. memetchi now but i sure do hope so it evolves into a mimitchi or memetchi or a mametchi. (same kinda names kinda hard to tell them apart but i memorized tamagotchi names and i know like almost all of the names for every character.)
Maybe because you keep on raising your tamagotchi the same way. Try different methods and try to raise your tamagotchi differently. If it's a teen or child that your repeating it's ok. But if it's a Adult, that's a problem...
i think there used to be a chart on how to get certain characters by the care you give it on tamatalk...but you have to go into this site and search for it
