I have started collecting different variations of sylesties and breeding them, but how do you make a mutation or trait pass down to the offspring? Example, a Ryori has ethereal armor and the other ryori has punk wings, how do I make those go into the offspring, or is it by chance? Thanks in advance!

it's punnett square genetics, so when breeding it takes each of the separate traits, and randomly selects one of the two letters from each of the parents, with dominance being N>A>B>C>D>E>etc. down the alphabet (with N being Nothing)
Because
parent one is passing down M1 (AA)/M2 (NN) and
parent two is passing down M1 (NN)/M2 (HH),
(unless one of the parents was untested and had a carried in the either M1 or M2 that wasn't taken into account)
The Offspring could potentially have children of its own who showed the traits, depending on what it was bred with, though.
