I just caught a mountain cottontail that's shiny. Like, metallic shiny, the way some of the cat pets are, such as Poyegan. It's a glossy solid white, and shows up glossy solid white in its portrait in the index. It's only a common, but I've been battling since pet battles opened and I've never seen this before.
Has anyone else?

Neat! If I ever caught one of those, I'd have to name it Shellac...
Re: Beta - Glossy pets?
Is anyone else surprised the old, really angular pet models--like the rabbit and the prairie dog--weren't smoothed out at all, considering all the attention to pets this expansion?
Some of my best friends are imaginary…
Re: Beta - Glossy pets?
Given the only models Blizzard's ever updated to my knowledge are the druid forms, no, this doesn't surprise me at all. As much as I like my tinypets, on the scale of important things to do, critter updates aren't one of them, I admit.

Ooo, interesting. I wonder if this is the WoW version of Shiny Pokemon?

Re: Beta - Glossy pets?
I noticed this too, and it seems to only occur for the Mountain Cottontail (at least from what I've seen). I haven't found a glossy version of any other wild rabbit pet, even if they're pure white.
Pretty odd, but definitely something to look out for! I know I plan on capturing one of these shiny pets when MoP comes out.

Re: Beta - Glossy pets?
as soon as i read glossy this was my thought. Now if only i could trade all those shiney pokemon in for some shiney pokewows >.<Wamo wrote:Ooo, interesting. I wonder if this is the WoW version of Shiny Pokemon?

apparently you cant trade pets caught in battle either so if they did do 'glossy pokewows' it wouldnt be something i could be lazy and buy off the AH
