Rare versions of old pets still dropping?

I recently came back to WoW and have been having fun collecting pets, but I'm still WAY behind. Which is not a problem, but since the patch I have not seen a single blue pet. I'm just wondering if anyone's seen any blue versions of the non-new pets since 6.0.2 dropped?

I think pet spawns aren't randomizing properly. I've been levelling pets in Vale of Eternal Blossoms, and every Eternal Strider I initiate a battle with is the EXACT same comp every time, which is really strange.

I'm having the same problem. Guess I will hold off on my rare hunting for a bit because I feel like I'm wasting my time! (Except for all the leveling that is getting done in the meantime lol)

Same generally issue. I was leveling on Timeless Isle and I was getting identical comps.

I've been battling pets since patch and have not seen a rare at all, went a couple days w/o even getting an upgrade stone, Finally got one this morning, but still have not seen a rare.

I've seen some rare wild pets since patch. Last one I remember was in Jade Forest. Hope that means it's fixed!

I have not seen any rare, wild pets since patch. Been looking in Swamp of Sorrows and Dreadwastes. (100% of have been a combo gray/green ... no white ones either)

It is actually really nice right now leveling pets in the Vale vs Eternal Strider groups. It is always 2 striders and a Cavit (or however it is spelled) which are all aquatic. Using 2 Dragonborne Hatchlings, they destroy the group quickly (no glowflies) with the swoops, it is letting me kill more faster without having to go to the stable master.

Thank goodness I'm not crazy! I've been hunting a Rare Ruby Sapling since Tuesday and haven't been able to find one. Makes sense now!

This has happened before. Groups of battle pets used to all be the same if they spawned at the same time. However, the respawning exactly the same is a new one!
