Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ToGocchi at none against Sproutlings's 5. ToGocchi also leads on ads (none vs shown). Sproutlings's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
