I am confusion with this.

It shows 6 medal slots, but allowing pets to use 6 extra attacks per round seems fairly unbalanced. Further more, the medal wheel only shows it going up by one, from the standard 6 medals to 7. I'm guessing you can give six medals for the pet and it will use one at random.

Or you can only feed six medals to a Pet at a time and it'll be a long process to get to it's top rank?

I am also very curious about 'Tricks'. Can you choose if you want it to heal, be defensive, be offensive etc. and maybe that's how it selects the medal to use?

Furthermore I pulled twice on the Tsum Tsums and got two Pooh Bear medals, both with one pip filled in. I want the other ones, but I also want this one fully guilted RIP.

When Global gets the Version 2.3.0 update, yes, that will be late September. JP will be getting the update on the 14th.

Chaser has confirmed with the UK press release that Pets will be arriving for Global on September 21.

 

[Chaser]

I can confirm that Pets will be coming September 21st.

Oh look, more reasons I wish I could upgrade from a Tracphone to actually play this game TwT Wish they had a version you could just play on iOS on mac instead of having to be a mobile device of some kind.

If wishes were horses then beggars could ride TwT

 

[Sora2016]

I legit screamed at that derpy dog Spirit. I need it in my life, I love it.

I really want like everything Tsum Tsum related...kind of like real life lol. Even though I only own like 7 of them

 

[Veevee]

Wow, Tsum Tsum overkill xD but I like it, it's kinda cute. :3 I'm looking forward to farm this stuff ^^ the extra jewels are unexpected, but always welcome. I was honestly surprised about the "largest giveaway part" - ah, yeah, I'm grateful and stuff, but did you just label yourself as super generous? Aaand ... didn't Ux JP just get 10.000 jewels? I'm not complaining, but the wording is weird.

Edit: I just noticed the dragon pet. I NEED TO HAVE THAT ONE!

Yes, its ridiculous Global UX is trying to stroke its own ego at giving away 3000 for the first time while Japan gets that everytime there is a big error...like global also does all the time and gives us 300 lol.

 

[Alpha Baymax]

I'd love to see more Kingdom Hearts and Tsum Tsum collaborations. Matter of fact, make a Kingdom Hearts Tsum Tsum line. They'll sell like hotcakes!

 

[Harmonie]

Are those the only varieties of pets? The dog one is kind of cute, but the others meh. As I've said before, I want a unicorn or pegasus, or at least some form of mini-horse!

JP's idea of "cute" just doesn't line up with mine very often, I'm afraid.

 

[Muke]

Harmonie, don't worry! I doubt we'll only have 3 varieties. At least I hope so, because I don't like any of those 3 xDD

We'll have to wait and see how pet parts are distributed. You'll be able to mix-and-match body parts, but these are probably what we'll be getting as default?

I'd bet you these will be the only three varieties, at least to start with.

They obviously think that most people will be satisfied with the cat-like creature, but I'm just like "Meh". I want a more stately, magnificent creature following me, like a unicorn. It must be a unicorn.

(Even though dogs are my favorite animals in reality)

 

[Sora2016]

Yeah I easily see these being the starting ones, but definitely with more to come...I think it would be a waste to not attempt to do all 5 Union's animals tbh.

 

[CutiePique]

JP's announcement pic showed what looked like bunny customization parts, which are visible in some of the pet-avatars pictured in the OP (the dragon's ears, the dog's feets), so maybe we'll have four starters? grrraaah, just get here, 14th, plzzzzzz

also, "one of the largest giveaways in the game’s history"
I... guess... if we consider Ux two different games...

It really is amusing how proud they are of that fact.

 

[ShadowXemnas]

Pfft, bunch of PR fluff in the last sentence. We've gotten 3k jewels plenty of times, and even got 5-6k for our Anni. Rather arrogant statement that it's "one of the largest" when it's the default for most special occasions. Nice that we'll be getting them, but theu could tone down the ego.

Everything else looks amazing. I made only one draw on the Tsum banner and got the Speed one, saving the rest for FFXion down the road. The events sound nice and I really like what we know about the Pets, especially the screenshot where THERE IS A WINGS OPTION. I want those Wings, I will have those Wings for my pet. Glad to know we are getting the update this month.
