Chibi Sinomacrops — Detailed Guide
A tiny pet that raises your level cap
The Chibi Sinomacrops is a chibi-pet: a miniature pet that is mainly cosmetic but can also add to your survivor's maximum level. It arrived in ARK: Survival Evolved with Winter Wonderland 6, has been available in every event after that, and is recorded for ARK: Survival Ascended as well. Its description: "Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!"
Where it sits and how it levels
ASE equips chibis in the off-hand slot, while ASA gives them a dedicated chibi slot. Once equipped, the pet appears to the front-left of your survivor and follows your movement and the direction you face. It rests in your lap while you ride and sits nearby while you are in bed; in a 
Tek Sleeping Pod it still follows your position but faces upwards at your right.
The chibi gains experience when you kill certain predators while it is equipped, and it can level up five times. Each level-up permanently raises the maximum level of the survivor wearing it at that moment by 1, up to 5 extra levels. Qualifying kills include the 
Alpha Raptor, 
Alpha T-Rex, 
Alpha Mosasaur, 
Alpha Tusoteuthis and 
Enraged Corrupted Rex. ASE on Steam adds alphas such as the Alpha Water Wyvern and 
Alpha Dakosaurus, and ASA adds others, for example the 
Astral Raptor, 
Astral Megalodon and 
Alpha Ossidon.
Losing it and finding it
Unlike unlockable skins, chibi-pets are ordinary items. They drop with the rest of your inventory when you die and are lost if you do not get your death cache back; the one exception on the wiki is the Genesis Season Pass Chibi-Noglin, which reappears as a new, unleveled pet in your inventory after respawning. The Chibi Sinomacrops has a weight of 0 and does not stack. Our records list 3 loot sources that can contain it: Fishing Items (Valentine's), Fishing Meat (Valentine's) and the Raptor Claus Gift.
