Tips

  • Buddy is on the left edge of the chart. Raise Energy and Attitude to 7 or 8, and the Mii becomes a Sweetie. Lower them, and it becomes a Strategist.
  • Buddy and Thinker are the only types that kept their North American 3DS names in Living the Dream.
  • Buddy sits next to Strategist, a Reserved type. So a Buddy can be close friends with types outside its own group.
  • The Tomodachi Life wiki says Considerate Miis walk normally when angry. When sad, they lean forward and their eyes tilt down.
