Every officially named Montabi base line, how the 22-line roster becomes 60+ forms, and which evolution details still need release verification.

Quick answer
  • Official pre-release material names 22 Montabi evolution lines.
  • Nintendo describes the full game as containing more than 60 Montabi forms.
  • A complete first-party list of every evolved form and unlock condition is not yet available.

Why 22 lines can mean more than 60 Montabi

The official open-beta notes describe 22 evolution lines, while Nintendo's current product page advertises more than 60 Montabi. These numbers are compatible: 22 refers to the base evolutionary families, while the larger figure counts forms across those families.
