Hello! I was requested to post this idea that I tossed into region chat awhile ago. Hopefully I can explain what I want relatively clearly.

During festivals we get themed pets which are AWESOME. I love the idea. We were all talking about our awesome new WF pets and I was bouncing around the map as I do on many occasions and was looking at all the regions we have not explored yet. We have a volcano, a desert, mountains, tundra,what looks like maybe a swamp-ish area, and we have a forest and field already open to us.

The stage is set.

I think it would be awesome to have a -super- rare region themed pet. I think it would be especially cool in the new system. You're wandering around the forest and BAM! run into a special forest themed variation of a pet. Exploring the volcano, and you have a chance to find a special lava/volcano themed pet. (of course this would be as things open up as we don't have access to the volcano and such atm but we will one day!) Maybe farm/other meadow animals for Esior, tree/nature themes for the forest (or even something a bit spooky since it's a pretty creeptastic forest full of the undead[they do mention the animals becoming scary and aggressive])

Of course I think they should be something special and rare. I love the exploration system but I think it needs a little something to spruce it up. Once you finish with the storyline there is nothing to look forward to except hunting down tinkerbell ad infinitum (of course this will change with the next area opening, but it might just be other tasks there). Hunting pets is fun, plus I just think special regional themed pets would be awesome :>

That is my idea! Hopefully I made this make sense without rambling too overly long. Let me know if I need to clarify anything, please!

I love this idea! It'd be really fun, too! :)

Thanks for posting this idea. I really love it. I think it would be really fun.

I'm thinking of region themed pets...and failing.

GREAT idea.

I'd be happiest if everything had it's own super rare themed version per region that's native to that region of course. It would give fans of each species something fun.

But just in case that's not possible to have a themed of each per region I did think of this. And that's if it's the one rare species per region that there's a themed version of. For Astryl's Vale that would be the Nephini. There isn't a rare species yet for the previous two zones but I'm hoping once those zones are redone one will be added to each regardless of the themed suggestion or not.

Ideas for themes for Astryl's Vale are water and apples.

*tries to think of apples and water based sylesti* so Harv. O.O
Umbra could be dark Sylesti and stuff. Dead, zombie pets.
Esior could be hay...wind? No...um... Grassy fields?

I like the idea of:

-rare themed species per region.

-rare theme per area map (can be spread over all spawnable pets present, not unique to one species only)

I love the idea, My only issue is it may come out like pokemon if not done correctly. For example a new fire type creature emerges but bc there is only 1 area with lava, it only appears in that specific area. we already in a sense have this except luckily sylvs and kelps appear not only near water, which is a common element to find in the wild, but when it rains. IDK about u but I dont want it to rain lava o.o; oh and idk about only finding a lvl 5 specific species bc it is only found in such a weak area. mebe this can be fixed by having this pet act like those field bosses, when encountered it appears at your lvl.

you could have it one or two species per area, and then some of them are themed? That would make it more fun to explore each area of sylestia. Because I don't know about you, but once I've completed one area in the story line, I never go back. So it would be cool to get specific pets in each area, and to make them themed, even more awesome!
