When a Hatchimal is assigned to a home the house will start generating coins for you, and you'll see your Hatchimal roaming around Hatchtopia. You also need to assign a Hatchimal to a home so you can dress it up!
Assigning a Hatchimal to a house:
- Place a house in your world and wait for it to complete construction.
- Tap on the house.
- Tap on the pink 'Assign' button.
- The Collection panel will appear at the bottom of the screen.
- Drag the chosen Hatchimal to the chosen house.
If you want to change the assigned Hatchimal, drag a new Hatchimal in its place.
