Changelog/2023/December 12

Hello! Welcome to SkyBlock Patch 0.19.9. Today's update includes Pet Care, some Bestiary improvements, new items, and more!
== ► The Pet Trainer ==
Hootie and Fann are the new duo in town!
While Kat allows you to upgrade your Pets to a higher rarity, Fann can train your Pets in her playground, giving them EXP!
=== How does it work? ===
Start by choosing a training slot. Initially, you have access to one slot, but by treating Hootie and Fann’s Owl to candies, you unlock two additional slots.
After selecting a slot, you can donate any pet you own, and then you have to select a few options:
* The Training session
** Pick from six unique training modes, each offering increasing amounts of Pet EXP daily.
** Higher-level training costs more.
** The first training mode is free, and training sessions are unlocked every 10 Taming Levels.
** The free training session gets better and better the higher your taming level, from 1000 exp per day to 5000!
* Set the duration
** Opt for a fixed period (5/10/20 days) or a target level (level 100, for example).
* You can also use an Owl Pet to help in the training session!
** Your Owl Pet also levels up while helping out in the training session.
* You can use the Caducous Feeder on your pet while it is in a training session!
=== The Owl Pet ===
Fann’s passion for Owls shines through in her work. She also offers the Owl Pet for sale!
The more money you invest on Fann’s training sessions, the cheaper they will get.
Also, you can always donate your Owl in any training sessions, and your cute Owl will jump in the playground with your Pet to help train it.
=== Taming 60 ===
George is a Pet collector facing a unique challenge: certain elusive pets elude his collection, as no one is willing to sell them to him.
Once you reach Taming Level 50, George proposes a trade. By donating 10 unique Pets, you unlock additional Taming Levels, all the way up to 60.
== ► Taylor’s Shop ==
Taylor’s shop has received a cool new look just in time for winter festivities.
Celebrating the holiday spirit, Taylor unveils a Seasonal Cosmetic Shop in the Hub featuring season-themed skins, with a rotating selection throughout the year.
The Winter Collection debuts with:
* Snow Owl Pet Skin (650 Gems)

Long gone are the days where you’d need to scavenge to find that pesky hidden repelling candle or go on a hunt for that day saver you placed a decade ago.
