Hello forum friends. Hope your day is going well and your drops are plentiful.
I have a small request. A sort of impromtu community event, if it’s not too much trouble? Could you set aside a couple of minutes today at some point to go out and do a wild pet battle? Just one. Whether you’re a an enthusiastic pet collector, a lapsed one or have never really paid it much attention, could you join me in participating in this one little flash mob activity?
Thank you and have a nice day.
No, but I am curious why you asked.
Probably trying to get Blizzard to think more people do the content so they don’t stop adding more of it in Midnight.
Or maybe a “pour one out for the homies” situation.
No? Really? It’s such a small request.
It’s not part of any great nefarious plan.
A few people on the forums are not going to skew the metrics enough to change Blizzard’s mind.
I just feel a little down about losing pet battles (if the the story circulating is true) and it would cheer me up to have a little support from the community.
(but if “no” is your answer, so be it. Be well wherever your road leads you today)
Well considering the fact that K’aresh has zero wild battle pets (when every other patch zone has added them), it isn’t looking good for battle pet collectors. I wonder if blizz will do to them what they did to arch.
Somehow channeling Michael Vick is not something I’m in the mood to do today.
I saw three people get the barrel bomber today while I get tokens yet again. Do not speak to me of plentiful drops for RNG gives me no part in it
I got u fam! 
has a small word with the spirits of RNG on your behalf
(disclaimer: they rarely listen to me, but I tried)
Like I can’t seriously imagine pet battles took a ton of work
Seems weird to just cut them
Yeah but I’m in bed already. Then I’ve got work in the morning. By tomorrow evening it won’t be an issue anymore.
I’m fine with a rain/sleep check 
Hell nuh.
I am glad it is going away, there are a billion pokemon games out there, it doesn’t need to be in wow.
This is the only good thing about midnight so far.
Ill do a few in a bit.
I didnt participate in them often, but when I did it was always fun.
Its kinda sad. Ive always put off doing the Celestial Tourney on the backburner, thinking they would add more like it.
Sure.
If I recall correctly I used to like to use a cute crab tank in my team setup whenever I could. I’ll dust the little guy off. 
The Celestial Tournament felt like the “hardest” thing I’ve ever done in WoW. I went in the moment it went live and strategy guilds didn’t exist at the time, so I was relying on just my accumulated familiarity with my collection. In those days, I knew each and every one of my level 25 pets personally and could pull pretty good strategies out of my head (I can’t remember if I actually beat it in my first try or ran out of pets and had to start over once or twice, but it made a great “grand finale” to the MoP journey)
The first dungeon was fun but as they went on, I found my collection grew to the point where I couldn’t remember my pets and their abilities clearly off the top of my head and slowly the fights started demanded more and more unforgiving combos of moves to beat. It didn’t feel fun any more to puzzle it out and I knew there were guides coming out quicker and quicker, so I started just following recipes.
But I still loved the brief spurt in new zones of going around finding all the wild pets to capture - that was always my favourite part of pet battles anyway, not the “challenges”.
I’m still missing the rare fight from Stratholme pet dungeon- either I’ve had bad luck or have been looking for the rare trigger in the wrong places all along. I rarely go back to check, in part because I’m dreading finally getting it to pop and then finding myself unable to beat it.
Anyway, I’ll probably have a few more nostalgic tales before it’s over.
(thank you)
I collect pets, I dont fight with them. Actually I find the activity boring. I get enough pet charms from mission boards, sitting on over 20k and every pet is max level via bought epic stones.
It’s a very rare day that I don’t do at least one pet battle.
Unfortunately I find wow pet battles to be absolutely mind numbingly boring. I wish they would revamp it completely or maybe just leave it as a cosmetic collection like it seems they are doing.
Boom. Been saying this since it got introduced.
