How to Turn a Newgat Into a Salamango in Viva Pinata

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Attract a Newgat to your garden.

   You will have to have 30 pinometers of water.
   
   You can make more water by using the shovel.
   
   If you don't know how much water you have, check the journal in the garden area section.
   
   Now go to Costolot's store and buy 3 watercress seeds for 13 chocolate coins each.
   
   Plant them near water.
   
   Once the Newgat comes into your garden, it will eat some of the watercress.
   
   It won't eat them all at once, but it will come back and eat the rest later.
   
   Once it eats all 3 of the watercress it will become a resident! If you have already had a Newtgat as a resident before, you can buy another one from Gretchen Fetchem.

   You will unlock an award for this. , Complete the romance requirements for both salamangos.
   
   You can find the romance requirements in the journal.
   
   When both have the pink hearts above them, you can romance them by directing them to each other.
   
   Once you complete the minigame, you will get an award for romancing salamangos and you will get another Salamango which you can sell to Costolot's store for 2100 chocolate coins.
