Pet Care Strategies

### **Evolution**

When you open the Pakkabook, your Pakka pets will be sorted by age first and by difficulty to get them second. For example, in the Striped Egg Family, Bitt is harder to get than Nello, Clipper is harder to get than Tanji, Mayonaka is harder to get than Piero and Piero is harder to get than Poonai. Every single egg is sorted like this.

TIP: Pets can't evolve with the lights off, so if you want a specific pet, keep the lights off until your inspector gives you the desired result.

**Easy pets** are the ones you get when their average happiness and hunger stats are low. They are the default. If you ignore them completely (without killing them) they will evolve into easy pets.

* TIP: Check on your pet often because there is a possibility that your pet might be close to death. You will know this because it will have a black skull next to its head and a part of the top of the screen will be shaded slightly blue/purple. To get rid of it, you need to use a healing potion or medicine on it. (often appears at the store)

**Medium pets** are the ones you get if you get their average happiness and hunger stats are at a high level.

**Hard pets** are the ones you get when their average happiness and hunger stats are high, and when their Training/discipline bar is high and their weight is "healthy".

If an egg has more than 3 evolutions for a certain age they will be sorted like this from first to last: hard, medium-hard, medium-easy, then easy.

Your pet's evolution will be based on the average happy & hunger values for that age, as well as it's discipline level and weight. The averages for happy & hunger only take into account the current age. This means that even if you had a terrible average for your 'kid' pet, these bad averages won't carry over to your teen stage.

The only thing that matters when evolving is that the average happiness and hunger values are kept high. If your pet had these values at 0 after you feed them for the first time (in that age) you will probably not be able to get the best/hardest evolution. One of the most useful strategies is to fill the happiness and hunger dots to full, wait until they drop one or two dots, and fill them again. Once their average values are what you desired, use the inspector to see if they will evolve into the desired pet you want. Then, you can feed it evolve foods to assure you get that evolution, making sure the stats stay relevant to what evolution you want. If not, repeat the process as before. If the evolution requires improved discipline or weight, you can move on to those stats to get an even better pet.

### **Power Evolving**

Power evolving can be done using food with the evolve stat. Because evolutions are largely based on HAPPY & HUNGER averages, you can use evo foods to make your pet evolve after only 5-10 min to achieve new evolutions quickly and easily assuming you have enough evo foods.

### **Training Quickly**

> Many people use Broccoli/Yogurt/Bread/Eggplant as a way to train their pets quickly. Pakka pets are more likely to turn away from healthier (less fatty) food, and way more likely to turn away lower fat foods if they are not happy. Use this to your advantage by feeding them your chosen "icky food" over and over again and making them eat it to train your pet for different evolutions. If your pet doesn't turn away from the food at first, tap your pet while it is trying to eat to stop it eating the food, you will eventually see the red exclamation mark above its head showing it doesn't want to eat it, and then you can continue training. Broccoli seems to work best, but water can work as well since it does not increase the happy or hunger dots of your pet.

### **Mystery Pets**

Mystery Pets are adult pakka pets that you get when you meet specific requirements. For example, Duster evolves from a dirty teen. Some are item-based like Starks, who evolves from pets who have eaten an Alien Meal or Kongo who evolves from a pet that has eaten a Kongo's Coconut.
