• Autumnal Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Forest Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Kelp Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Nightshade Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Sassy Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Sun Sproutling - Bind on Use
• Zomstrok - Bind on Pick Up

It's still unknown where these pets will come from, however the Pet Journal currently lists Zomstrok as a drop. At the moment it uses a similar model as the Bogstrok (pictured above).

Unfortunately, the other new additions were not included in the Pet Journal this time around. Hopefully we'll see these pets "sprout up" somewhere soon!

The item that teaches the Weebomination was also added in this latest alpha patch — Bind on Pick Up, unknown drop.

Plushie Playtime
Senior Game Designer, Jonathan LeCraft, recently gave us some information on an interesting tailoring pet possibly coming in the expansion — the Elekk Plushie.

Although there was talk of this pet possibly not making it into the release, it looks like this stuffed animal will have a special place in our collections and on our teams.

"If you see this on PTR, don't worry... we'll be adding way more trainers to it."

LeCraft Tweeted a preview of an upcoming achievement called "Elekktrifying Performance" which requires players to defeat specific trainers while using the Elekk Plushie on their team. Since this unique pet is not actually effective in battles, better get your carry teams ready for it!

An achievement for leveling your Elekk Plushie to level 25 is also in the works, however this pet and related achievements will be one of a kind for the time being.

Who knows if or when another in-game plushie companion will be released, so we hope your carry teams are always ready to play!
