The adult stage (産卵期 sanranki) is usually the last stage of a Tamagotchi before death, and is the longest stage in a Tamagotchi's life span (besides a senior). Upon evolving into an adult, the Tamagotchi will unlock multiple new features and abilities.
Care[]
Care of a Tamagotchi in the adult stage remains largely the same as all other stages - they require food, attention and their happiness metre must be fulfilled.
On vintage releases, the maximum lifespans of adults may vary depending on their positions on their device's growth chart - for example on the P1, a Mametchi could live to be 21-22, but a Tarakotchi can only live to be 7-8. In most Tamagotchi versions, the sleeping times of an adult will also vary from breed to breed.
Prior to the Tamagotchi iD, the adult stage often lasts until the Tamagotchi turns ten or on some releases up until it turns sixteen. Should it be unmarried by this time, the Tamagotchi will then turn evolve into a senior. An senior will remain on a Tamagotchi toy until it dies or returns home. Seniors can mate with seniors of the opposite gender to produce babies - on all versions except the Music Star where Otokitchi and Ojitchi are capable of breeding, their offspring will warp to Oyajitchi (or on the Tama-Go and TMGC+C, Grippatchi if they are girls, or Tensaitchi Jr. on the Hexagontchi) after the baby hour is up
On the Tamagotchi Pix, adults after some time will leave and return to Tamagotchi Planet to pursue the career they have been trained for, based on playing games to do with that career. In the Entama, Uratama, V4 and V4.5, adults are able to get a career and go to the work section in TamaTown.
Abilities[]
On some models, adult Tamagotchi's gain the ability to marry with other Tamagotchi's and have babies, with the matchmaker beginning to visit about two or three days after evolution. In addition, new items may become available for use.
