Hello everyone, I have been starting to really branch out my collection and have been wanting to start collecting more odd pets. There is an electronic pocket dinosaur on ebay right now for about $23, but I am a little hesitant to buy it since sometimes odd pets work questionably at best. Here is a link to the eBay listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/170962596702?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Does anyone have any experience with this pet? I couldn't really find anything searching the forums, and youtube is full of reviews of the pocket dinosaurs app so that wasn't much help either. I hate to fork over the money for a pet that may end up being a dud.

Also, I am wanting any recommendations for odd pets. At the moment, besides the typical giga pets, I have the Yuki Penguin, DInkie Dino (just arrived the other day and I thought I got ripped off since I didn't realize the batteries went in weird ><), My Baby Bat and My Baby Bear. I ordered a Penpy that hasn't arrived yet. Any recommedations?

I am wanting to get a gyaoppi pet, but they seem kind of pricey on eBay right now. I am also dying to get my hands on a Bobo Panda Byte. The weather feature seems really interesting to me! Are there other pets that have a nice weather feature? I have poured over Mothra's site but have a bit of a system overload with all the pets!

 
It's a Hitorikko in a different shell. Hitorikkos are very fun pets, similar to the Dinkies, but they poop a LOT. That's pretty much it. And they don't have different evolution branches except for their final forms, being either good or bad. But if you like the Dinkies, you'll like Hitorikkos. (The fish is my favorite.) They're not as needy, except for the pooping thing.

I would get a multi pet Gyaoppi if you could, the Super one. They're fun and have a lot of features. I have one I managed to snag at the local swap meet for cheap. The buttons were torn, but I just switched them with the buttons from a stock pet and now it works great.

Other odd pets... Hm, i would look at WhiteClaw's youtube and see all the pets she reviews to give you more an idea of what you might enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/user/WhiteClaw48

 
Gyaoppi pets are AWESOME...love those :) I like the Nanos...Gigas are fun but hard and not as interesting. MGA pets are a lot of fun in my opinion as well as the Tata and tete Kitty and puppy. ^midorime linked my youtube channel so you can check out my reviews. I have another review coming today on a pretty cool little pet whenever I get off this darn meeting call.

 
I've actually seen quite a few of your reviews! I just ordered a penpy penguin after watching your reviews yesterday as a matter of fact. I wish I was lucky enough to find pets at shops/yard sales. I've only been lucky enough to find a tamago for ten cents. The general consensus is that hitorikkos are good pets so I'll probably end up getting that dino. I've looked around on eBay for an MGA pet but haven't had a whole lot of luck. I am really enjoying the yuki penguin though!

And I don't speak German but that fish pet has an amazing shell!

Other odd pets I've seen... and would like in my collection too one day...

The Digimon series (that I wish I had time and money for...)

Pokemon Pikachew series

Nintendo Pocket Hello Kitty

101 Dalmarions Giga Pet

 
The 101 Dalmatians Giga is my fave Giga ever. It's also the easiest to care for as it barely needs anything it seems. Other Gigas are way more demanding.

Awesome :)

Keep an eye on this seller: https://myworld.ebay.com/charliefby/&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2754 He always has awesome odd pets for great prices!

 
I look a this eBay all the time actually! And I have my eye on your Dragotti

 
Oh definitely! I just don't know if the amount of money I've spent on VP's recently is reasonable haha

 
I had a Tamakaci Dinosaur and I liked it a lot, I would also recommend Gyaoppi (bird or dinosaur) or Super Gyaoppi (multi pet) since everyone says that they're one of the best odd pets ever. I have also an Akachan Dino, which I adore and a PowerPalz Kitty which is really cute and not very needy. ;) Let's see, what else... Dinkie Dinos are great too, I would love to have one. :D Nano pets are also recommended by everyone, so you could try one of them as well. :D
