FAQ
Combine four of the same pet when all four are Full Grown.
Combine four Neon pets once they are Luminous - effectively sixteen base pets.
Five main ones - Common, Uncommon, Rare, Ultra-Rare and Legendary - plus the rarer Event category.
Mainly hatching eggs, plus Robux purchases, event currencies, limited eggs, lures and trading.
A temporary pet removed from all inventories after a period of time; Scoob and Pumpkin are the two current examples.
Details
Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.
Pets were released in the Pets Update on June 15, 2019 and usually follow the player around, much like babies.
They can be looked after similarly to babies and aged up, which is how they learn new tricks.
Hatching eggs is the main way of obtaining pets, but specific pets can also be purchased with Robux or event currencies.
Players joining for the first time receive a free Starter Egg, which only hatches into a Cat or a Dog.
Pets can be made Neon or Mega Neon by combining four of the same pet when they are all Full Grown or Luminous.
That means the cost of a Neon is four fully-aged pets of the same species, and a Mega Neon effectively costs sixteen base pets stacked through the neon layer.
Because ageing is the bottleneck rather than the pet itself, commons and uncommons are the realistic first neons for most players.
The neon path is also why duplicate pets hold value in trading: four unwanted pets of the same kind are worth more as one neon than as four singles.
There are 5 main rarities: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Ultra-Rare and Legendary.
A less common rarity is Event - temporary pets that were removed from all inventories after a period of time.
The two event pets as of the last wiki update are Scoob and Pumpkin, and the 2D Kitty was an event pet when first released on April 1, 2021 before being rereleased as a legendary.
Event pets age as fast as common pets, and they are classified alongside commons in the inventory.
Pets also sit in subcategories based on source, including Robux Pets, event-exclusive pets and limited egg pets.
Limited egg pets can only come from their own egg: a Safari pet like the Flamingo comes only from Safari Eggs, and the same rule applies to the other limited eggs.
The limited egg lineup includes Safari, Jungle, Farm, Aussie, Fossil, Ocean, Mythic, Woodland, Japan, Southeast Asia, Danger, Urban, Desert, Garden, Moon, Aztec, Endangered, Fairytale and Fool Eggs.
Desert, Moon and Aztec pets can also come from their Royal variants, which broadens the source without changing the pet itself.
Because limited eggs leave the game, the only way to get their pets afterwards is trading - which is what drives the price of older egg pets.
Robux pets cost Robux, and some are unavailable entirely, meaning trading is the only remaining route.
The pets in the Pet Shop that cost Robux are available all year round: Sloth, Winged Horse, Royal Palace Spaniel, Cuddly Candle and Nautilus.
Lure pets come from placing bait into the Box Lure or Cozy Home Lure, and the lineup includes Christmas Pudding Pup, Flaming Zebra, Ash Zebra, Magma Snail, Magma Moose, Toasty Red Panda, Burning Bunny, Flaming Fox, Wildfire Hawk, Volcanic Rhino, Winter Fawn, Winter Doe, Winter Buck, Frozen Penguin, Icy Porcupine, Snowy Mammoth, Shiver Wolf, Subzero Scorpion and Frostbite Bear.
Bait types include the Campfire Cookie, Burnt Bites Bait, Baked Alaska Bait, Christmas Pudding Pup Bait, Winter Deer Bait, Ice Soup Bait, Shiver Cone Bait and Subzero Popsicle Bait.
Special pet items like the Ride-A-Pet Potion and Fly-A-Pet Potion sit in their own category alongside feeding items such as Golden Goldfish, Honey, Diamond Lavender and the various Golden treats.
Pick a pet you can obtain repeatedly rather than one rare pet: you need four of the same species at Full Grown before anything else happens.
Age them in parallel rather than one at a time, since friendship levels and ageing are both per-pet activities.
Check whether the pet comes from a limited egg first - if it does, your supply depends on trading rather than hatching.
Remember the Mega Neon step: a Mega Neon consumes four Luminous pets, so plan the full chain before committing your duplicates.
Because Event pets age as fast as commons, they are unusually efficient neon candidates if you already own one.
Ageing a pet is what turns it from a follower into a trained one: pets can be aged up, which is how they learn new tricks.
Friendship levels are a separate system from ageing, so interacting with a pet and ageing it are not the same activity.
Special pet items sit alongside the ageing loop: the Ride-A-Pet Potion and Fly-A-Pet Potion sit in their own category alongside feeding items.
Other special items include Golden Goldfish, Honey, Diamond Lavender, Mud Ball, Golden Clam, Leaf and Golden Leaf, plus treat items such as Kitty Biscuit and Yarn Apple.
Because Full Grown and Luminous are the thresholds that matter for neon combinations, ageing is the gate on every neon in the game - plan it around pets you can replace.
