Draenor Pet Level Grinding

Greetings all!

I am working on grinding pet levels to get mine all to 25, while not using pet charms. I just came back after 5 years gone and it's been a chore to catch up.

I am trying to get my 2000 Draenor Pet Battles done while getting pets leveled (I have 291 at 25, 425 to go....)

Right now I am using the Icespine Hatchlings right outside the Garrison because they are instant respawn, and it goes pretty fast.
I use Stunted Yeti (with a bash to switch in my lvl 1 pets unharmed), leveling pet, and then Lil' Xt.

Can anyone suggest a better strategy or location? The fights go fairly fast but I wanted to know if there was a quicker way? I just hit 1020 Draenor Battles won.
Also - I can't find many leveling guides outside of Pandaria... once I hit my 2000 is that the best way to go?

Welcome back!

Icespine Hatchlings are agreed to be the best option for wild levelling while grinding the wins.

I thought the Draenor requirement had been lowered to 150, though. Am I confused?

There's an excellent suggested strat here:

but it doesn't account for stunning one round to keep a level 1 safe.

The current optimum levelling strat is to wait for Squirt Day, when you can get Trainer-level XP on fast battles in your garrison. From the calendar, next Squirt Day should be next Thursday 11th.

Actually, Squirt is in the garrisons today. I think the pre-patch messed up the timing of the rotation.

I use a rotten helper with club, booby trapped presents, and greench's gift. Start off with booby trapped presents. Greench's Gift kills any white/grey hatchling and can kill some breeds of green. A single club finishes them off even when weak dmg. Use club to finish off the second pet after booby trapped presents dents them. Swap to some pet with a decoy, swap to carry, swap to which ever 25 is the faster kill

I can confirm that there is a change for EU aswell, though we've it even more different.
Today we've Grubbles, Scrags and Stings, so we are 6 teams further than you.

Will take a look on the sticky someday (because the event rotation still isn't very stable, is it?), but any help appreciated, as I'm not in your shoes. :)

I am going for the Garrison Monument and it says 1049/2000 - Wish it was only 150 =)
