Pet Journal

The Pet Journal in Mists of Pandaria

The Pet Journal is a window tab found in the Collections interface. It provides listings and details concerning non-combat pets both collected and not collected, as well as allowing players to queue for pet battles as part of the Pet Battle System. It also provides access to the Spell misc petheal [Revive Battle Pets] ability, as well as the 'Summon' button used to select a particular pet to be the player's in-game companion.

Notes[]

The left-most pane provides a list of all pets (both collected and not collected), with a search function and a choice of filters.

The top-right pane displays the stats and abilities and other information on any pet which is dragged to that pane.

The bottom-right pane consists of three Battle Pet Slots. Dragging a pet to one of these slots will make it part of your current battle pet team, replacing any pet previously occupying that slot. Each Battle Pet Slot displays a review of the pet, showing the pet's name, type, abilities, level, health and experience. Pets' abilities can also be chosen in this pane. Pets will be displayed in-combat in the order of the slots that they occupy; when battling wild pets, the pet in the first slot will always open combat.

At the bottom-left of the window is the 'Summon' button, allowing a pet to be summoned as the player's in-game companion. At the top-right can be found the Spell misc petheal [Revive Battle Pets] ability, while at the bottom-right is the 'Find Battle' button, queueing the player for a PvP pet battle match against another player with a reasonably similar team of pets.

The window also displays the total number of pets owned by the player, and the player's total Battle Pet Achievements score.

For a listing of all known pets see the list of companions.
