What is a Power?

Every animal in AnimalDex has a Power: one thing its kind does well to survive, put as a lesson for your own life, like the Common Octopus's Flexible Intelligence. When you talk to an animal you've captured, it answers from that Power and sets you one step to try. Finish one step it gives you, and its Power is yours. Its card shows how you earned it, and from then on it can compare its way with other animals in a debate.
