Notes

In years prior, this pet could be found in Lord Ahune's Ice Chest. As of 2010, it no longer drops from Ahune.

In Patch 4.2 (June 2011), the Searing Scorchling became a random drop found within Zen'vorka's Cache. The vendor that sells this cache may only be unlocked upon completion of the new Hyjal questing hub and storyline, up to and including the three vendor specific quests. Check out our Community Guide: Unlocking the Mount Hyjal Vendors for more information.

The cache costs 30 Marks of the World Tree.

The Scorchling draws attention because he is glowing and leaves a trail. It is also totally cool when he fireballs critters. I wish there were more elemental pets. We get this guy and the Kirin Tor. I hope they eventually add one for each of the schools of magic... or the elemental planes to be all cataclysm-esque.

Edit: They added Frigid Frostling :) a few planes left

Willy (with an eye beam) and KT (with a frost tomb) nuke critters as well. And the Toxic Wasteling "eats" critters.

GOOD NEWS! This pet is once more available when 4.2 is released. According to PTR testers, it has a chance to drop from Zen'Vorka's Cache, which is bought from Zen Vorka for 30 marks of the world tree. No information on drop %'s yet.

Got it on my third bag! I never thought I'd get this pet, was only doing the dailies as I was low on gold (how I hate those dailies) and was pleasantly surprised. Now I just have get the last random NPC to /wave at and I never have to go near the Firelands dailies again! :D

I am truly hated by the RNG gods.

I've done the full dalies since early August (I was one of the first to complete all the precursor quests, starting no later then the 2nd day it was possible to buy the cache), 31 tokens a day, missing only about 20 days and I still haven't had him drop.

This little bundle of rage became my best buddy while I was grinding for Critter Kill Squad. He's tiny, but what he lacks in size he more than makes up for in attitude, becoming SO ANGRY that all he can do is ignite nearby helpless critters. I will admit that I was a little worried about my Tiny Snowman, but so far my scorchling seems to play nice until you bring him out to really play.

It's a random drop from the Cache; you also get another item in addition to the Scorchling. It can also drop again after you already have it; like the pet gators in Shattrath, you have to delete the item to get rid of it.

Once you have completed all the quests on the Molten Front, you have access to a total of 31 Marks of the World Tree a day. So you get a new chance to get this every day, and an extra chance after a month. Good luck!

A blue poster confirmed that while the Scorchling is permanently removed from Midsummer Festival, it's not gone.

It will return and it'll have company: mini elementals of the other elements! How they will be obtainable we can only speculate, but since in Cataclysm we will be traveling in all four of the Elemental Planes, it wouldn't be hard to find a reputation, a quest or a mob to tie them with.

You may defeat Lord Ahune once per day on heroic mode, and once a day from the regular slave pens daily you get from the npc right before the Ice Stone.
Heroic mode allows for a retry if you fail over and over until you down Lord Ahune (gives you a badge on heroic, so it saves you to the instance for a that day).
But on regular, once you get the daily and turn it in; if you fail to kill Lorn Ahune-you lose the chance for The Scortchling, until daily's reset. (or unless you have more people) GL!!

It doesn't have any healing abilities, making it tough to train. But it hits like a truck with its 2 DOTs and its conflagrate combo. If your looking for a strong elemental pet, this one is a great choice.

They may have improved the drop rate as I got it in my first bag too. This should be listed under Molten Front instead of Mt Hyjal.
