The ladder, stage by stage
One tile per stage, in the order the game climbs them. The stage's own badge, the level its ascension needs, what the ascension costs and unlocks, then each star with what it adds.

What it costs
Two kinds of material, both from the game's item catalogue. The crystals pay for stars and ascensions alike; the stone joins in at each ascension.
Dewdrop Crystals
Three crystals qualify, each in the game's own words: the family's exclusive one, the region's, and the Precious one that stands in for any family's.
the family'sEmberpup Dewdrop Crystal Exclusive resonance material for the Emberpup family.
the region'sBreezy Plains Dewdrop Crystal Can be used for Resonance Star-up to enhance attributes of Aniimo in Breezy Plains.
the region'sWhisperwake Isles Dewdrop Crystal Can be used for Resonance Star-up to enhance attributes of Aniimo in the Whisperwake Isles.
the substitutePrecious Dewdrop Crystal Precious Dewdrop Crystal, can be used as Resonance material in place of specific Family Dewdrop Crystals.
Elemental Stones, by element
The stone an ascension asks for is the one of the Aniimo's element (the game's pet configuration maps each element to its stone). The Flux Crystal substitutes for any of them.

Where they come from
In the game's own lines:
“Correct. Defeating Alpha Aniimo is the main way to earn Dewdrop Crystals.”
“Alpha Aniimo roam every area of the open world. Check the Map to see where they are. Defeat an Alpha and open its Alpha Chest to obtain materials such as Dewdrop Crystals, Elemental Stones, and Star Dust.”
“Has a chance to be obtained when catching Aniimo of the same family” (Emberpup Dewdrop Crystal)
“Consumes Stamina to craft Emberpup Dewdrop Crystal” (Semi-finished Emberpup Dewdrop Crystal)
“A lucky chest sold by Lumintech. Open it to receive a random amount of Dewdrop Crystals.” (Dewdrop Crystal Chest · Exchange at Operation: Egg Heist Shop)
“Dewdrop Crystals are formed from overflowing Vein energy, condensed and refined over long periods.”
Your Aniimo's crystal and stone
Every family the site covers, with its exclusive Dewdrop Crystal, its region's crystal, and each member's stone. Names link to the creature pages.

What carries over
Two lines the game ships about Resonance and an Aniimo's fate:
“The Aniimo’s EXP, level, Resonance stage and Star Rank, Capability Awakening, Capafruit, and more are fully inherited. Any surplus growth items are returned in full.”
“You can release Aniimo from the Aniimo Management section. Released Aniimo leave the Pathfinder’s side. Items spent on Resonance star ups and ascensions are fully refunded, while some items spent on leveling up are partially refunded.”
Use Dewdrop Crystals in the Resonance Star-Up system to strengthen Aniimo and gradually increase their base attributes such as ATK and HP. · After reaching max stars in the current stage, spend Elemental Stones and other items to ascend and unlock stronger attribute bonuses.
