Guide:Breeding and the Menagerie

Where new pets come from

Ordinary eggs can drop from Loot Actions when you have space. You can breed two eligible pets you own to produce an egg, or receive eggs from another player on Main. Restricted modes block player transfers. Inspect an egg's parents and attributes before hatching it.

An ordinary bred pet inherits one parent's species and may inherit cosmetic traits. Generation is one above the higher parent generation; it is lineage, not combat power or reincarnation tier. Genesis Egg Specials are a separate route to Generation I pets, subject to the specific Special's attributes.

Breeding has growing costs

Breeding costs BC. Repeated breeding raises costs, and the same parents need time before breeding again. Zootechny lowers BC cost; Virility helps bypass the breeding wait according to its current effect. Read the breeding preview for the selected parents rather than relying on an old fixed-price table.

Some species cannot breed normally. Parent species, skins, auras, and held breeding items all matter to the outcome. Cursed Charm helps skin mutation; Mutagenic Sludge helps aura mutation and is consumed when used for breeding. Those items also have other uses, so budget them before starting a collection project.

Skins and auras

Ordinary skin and aura variants are cosmetic. They do not make a normal pet faster at adventuring. Rarity can make them desirable to collectors, and their inheritance creates long-term breeding goals. Auralyzers and Skinulators can alter a pet's appearance; read the exact Special, since its specified result can differ from the generic item type.

Keep a permanent discovery record

The Menagerie records species, skins, and auras you discover by hatching, creating, or changing pets. An entry remains unlocked even if you later lose that particular pet. Missing entries appear as silhouettes. Filter by action, Skin, Aura, Obtained, or Missing to choose the next collection goal.

Browse another player's Menagerie by name or BcID. The Collection Leaderboard counts standard main-track forms for base species and the current seasonal species. Supporter species and bonus variants do not inflate that ranking.

Advanced Pyre effects can change pet mechanics as well as appearance. The cosmetic rule for ordinary skins and auras does not mean every cursed or advanced pet behaves normally.
