Awakening
Jormuntide is dual-element, so its crystal is either Dragon Awakening Crystal or Water Awakening Crystal — the item data names one element per crystal and does not say which a two-element Pal takes. Either way it costs 50 Radiant Gems of that element plus 10 World Tree Holy Water.

Its Partner Skill gains a line
Awakening any Pal raises its stats. Jormuntide is one of 66 whose Partner Skill also gains an Ride Speed Up: 20% bonus at rank 5 — blank at rank 1, so it needs condensing too.
