Suggested PvP Pets by Type

Pet

Details

Ídolo Anubisath

Ídolo Anubisath is a strong pet with high survivability. Esmagar is a high damage ability, while Tempestade de Areia mitigates damage providing a chance for the opponent to miss. Deflexão can be especially powerful in PvP pet battles as many pets use low damage multi turn abilities.

The Ídolo Anubisath can be bought or sold on the Auction house, or drops from The Twin Emperors in Temple of Ahn'qiraj.

Nanico do Kun-Lai

Nanico do Kun-Lai is a great combo ability pet. Choque Gélido into Congelamento Profundo gives high burst damage. The added 100% stun chance onto this make this pet very powerful in PvP.

The Nanico do Kun-Lai is a wild pet, and can be found in Kun-lai Summit.

Murquixote

Murquixote is one of, if not the best PvP pet in the game right now. Inspiração Íntegra can be used to swap onto an AoE pet, causing huge amounts of damage to the enemy team. Murloc Cadente being an avoid ability with high burst damage is amazing for finishing off pets.

Murquixote was obtainable thorough the 2013 Blizzcon, and sadly, if you don't have it already, it's likely going to cost you a lot of money to get.

Diabrete Rebelde
Diabrete Bestial

Diabrete Rebelde & Diabrete Bestial are great additions to any team. Portal do Éter allows for swapping, and Imolação allows you to heal a lot.

Diabrete Rebelde drops from Mãe Rosula and Diabrete Bestial drops from Terestian Cascopodre in Kara.

Serpim Tonquinho

Serpim Tonquinho has a great moveset with Jarro de Líquido Fedido and Buuurp!.

Serpim Tonquinho is from Archaeology.

Entusiasta da Aliança and Fanático da Horda also have similar, good movesets, and obtained from PvP.

Guaxinantinho Curioso

Guaxinantinho Curioso is quite underrated, but has a great moveset with Armadilha de Urso/Bebida dos Feralma and Redemoinho.

Guaxinantinho Curioso is from Children's Week.

Pet

Details

Dragonetinho Filho da Tempestade/Dragonetinho do Nexus

The Dragonetinho Filho da Tempestade andDragonetinho do Nexus are similar pets and are a solid choice for PvP pet battles. With Tempestade Arcana and Surto de Mana, these pets deal a huge amount of damage.

The Dragonetinho do Nexus can be found in the wild, and the Dragonetinho Filho da Tempestade is a guaranteed drop from Matriarca Asatempéria.

Austéria Crepuscular

The Austéria Crepuscular is a great PvP pet when used in combination with Murquixote, and also as a standalone pet. Inspiração Íntegra into Meteorito do Crepúsculo does large amounts of damage to the active and back line pets. Mudança de Fase can be used to stall until your next Meteorito do Crepúsculo.

The Austéria Crepuscular can be obtained from Valiona or Theralion in The Bastion of Twilight. This pet can also be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Dragonetinho Brônzeo (S/S)

Dragonetinho Brônzeo is very effective, but performs best as S/S breed. Talho Arcano, Prisão de Cristal, Decolar work well together.

Dragonetinho Brônzeo is a zone wide drop in the post Warlords of Draenor Blasted Lands.

Pet

Details

Mosca d'Água Cintilante

Mosca d'Água Cintilante has an amazing moveset with Golpe Alfa, Esquivar and Decolar, allowing high damage while avoiding many attacks.

Mosca d'Água Cintilante can be caught in the wild in Val'sharah.

Mosca-javali Parasitária

Mosca-javali Parasitária has good sustain and high damage with Vento Cortante/Ímpeto, Decolar and good sustain with Drenar Sangue and Alimentar.

Mosca-javali Parasitária can be caught in the wild in Tirigarde Sound.

Jovem Corta-céu
Corta-céu Dócil

Jovem Corta-céu and Corta-céu Dócil - is it windy in here? Vento Ventania, Magia Selvagem and Bofetada de Asa make for an annoying to deal with pet. Corta-céu Vilafetado also has similar moves.

Jovem Corta-céu is caught in the wild in Mac'Aree. The other Skyfins are from Ovo de Pintas Vis.

Bico Sangrento

Bico Sangrento is good because of Dança da Chuva. Decolar and Ataque Noturno add extra to this kit. Several similar pets share this moveset, such as Selvabico.

Bico Sangrento can be caught in the wild, in Tanaan Jungle.

Morcevil Órfão

Morcevil Órfão with Imolar Vil with Garra Negra and Drenar Sangue is pretty good.

Morcevil Órfão is from the Legionfall Paragon box.

Corvo and Similar

Corvo and other birds with the Chamado da Escuridão + Ataque Noturno combo are really good.

Pet

Details

Val'kyr Não Nascida

The Val'kyr Não Nascida, although having received a few nerfs, is still a top PvP battle pet. In combination with Ikky and Chrominius it can set up to deal some good amounts of damage, while playing dead in the back line.

The Unborn Val'kyr may seem daunting to obtain, however nowadays there isn't much competition at all to get it, so you should be able to find one in the wild quite easily.

Barnabé

Barnabé is notable because of his very good move set. He is currently the only undead pet with Esquivar, and has a great kit to battle against Dragon types, because of moves such as Soco Tornado and Jabe.

Not only are his abilities strong against Dragonkin, but he is also an Undead, meaning he takes 33% less damage from Dragonkin abilities.

Barnabé is obtainable from Island Expeditions and can also be bought or sold on the Auction House.

Garra Rastejante

The Garra Rastejante is a notable PvP battle pet due to abilities Maldição da Ruína and Garra da Morte. Maldição da Ruína can be applied, and Garra da Morte can be used to pull the pet into the back line, either forcing the opponent to swap it back out to an active pet and losing a round, or just taking the Maldição da Ruína.

The Garra Rastejante can be obtained through Archaeology, or bought and sold on the Auction House.

Pet

Details

Rabbits/Hares

The Rabbit and Hare family are very annoying PvP pets to play against. Using the move set Arranhão/Ímpeto, Esquivar and Escavar they are masters of avoiding damage while dealing high damage. It is worth noting that Rabbits/Hares are most effective when they are a speed heavy breed.

Most Rabbits or Hares can be found in the wild or on the Auction House.

Cockroaches

Alright, hear me out here. The Barata may seem like a really bad pet, and it is, most of the time. However, the Barata can be useful in some specific situations. Cockroaches can counter sustain/healing teams with Apocalipse, such as teams who run Anciente Florescente. This isn't a pet to create a team around, however, if you are playing against teams that are out healing and blocking your damage with Anciente Florescente, run a Cockroach with Apocalipse!

Most Cockroaches caught in the wild or can be bought off the Auction House.

Pet

Details

Fogo-fátuo de Hyjal

The Fogo-fátuo de Hyjal is a great PvP pet due to the ability Desejo. Desejo can be used and then you can swap out to a low health pet, healing it by 50%. Desvanecimento can also be used to avoid damage, and get the Desejo off onto the Fogo-fátuo de Hyjal if needed.

The Fogo-fátuo de Hyjal drops from Arquimonde in Hyjal Summit, or can be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Serviçal de Dêmidos

The Serviçal de Dêmidos has a powerful move set for PvP. It is the only easily obtainable pet with Espada Mágica, the other pet with Espada Mágica being the Goblin do Tesouro. Espada Mágica is a good ability due to the base 50% critical chance, giving the potential to hit for a lot. Sifonar Anima provides a small amount of sustain and Aceleração da Alma gives burst damage with a stun chance.

The Serviçal de Dêmidos drops from Demidos in Shadowmoon Valley (Draenor) and can be bought or sold on the Auction House.

Pet

Details

Dançarino Névoa de Jade

The Dançarino Névoa de Jade is a very strong pet. Gêiser can be lined up with Dança da Chuva, giving the potential for critical hits. Saída de Vapor can be used with Dança da Chuva, also potentially hitting for a lot.

The Dançarino Névoa de Jade can be obtained as a drop from Dançarino Névoa de Jade on the Timeless Isle, or can be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Anciente Florescente

The Anciente Florescente is a great pet at being annoying and mitigating damage. If you run the move set Cascaferro, Fotossíntese and Luz do Sol you can become an unstoppable force. It just might take a while to win games! This pet is best used in a team with other healing pets.

The Anciente Florescente is purchased from the Blizzard store for $10 USD.

Bonequinho de Neve

The Bonequinho de Neve has a similar combination to the Nanico do Kun-Lai. Evocar Nevasca into Congelamento Profundo allows for large burst damage and a stun.

The Bonequinho de Neve is a reward from Presente Alegremente Embrulhado, available during Winter Veil. However it can be bought or sold on the Auction House at any time.

Ragnarinho

Ragnarinho is a hard hitting Elemental pet. Martelada de Sulfuras is a strong basic attack, while Filhos do Fogo can be used to stall Armadilha de Magma into activating.

Ragnarinho is purchased from the Blizzard store for $10 USD.

Pet

Details

Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen

Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen is a notable PvP pet because of the large amount of damage that can be done with him. Garras Espirituais is a strong basic attack, and is a guaranteed hit chance when Fogo Lunar is active, which Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen also has. Alimentar can also be chosen if healing is needed. Espreitar can boost Alimentar, allowing for good healing.

Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen is obtained through the Celestial Tournament. If you didn't pick Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen on your first run through, you will need to do it for three weeks to obtain him.
Xu-Fu, Filhote de Xuen

Pequena Áspide da Morte

The Pequena Áspide da Morte is an interesting pet and works well with other pets sharing similar abilities. Veneno Cegante and Presa de Veneno apply the Poison effect, allowing Puncionar Ferimento to hit twice.

Pequena Áspide da Morte is dropped from the Píton Imperial on Timeless Isle, or can be bought and sold on the Auction House. Rose Taipan is an alternative pet, which is easier to obtain.

Pet

Details

Tintoso

Tintoso is a new pet in Battle for Azeroth that works well with other Poison pets. Tintoso has two abilities that work well together that synergise with Poison. Veneno Cegante and Punhalada de Tentáculo combined with Mergulho make for an evasive pet, while applying the Poison effect that can be used by multiple pets.

Tintoso is the only pet with Punhalada de Tentáculo that can also blind a target with his other moves, making his move set very unique.

Tintoso is obtained from Island Expeditions, and can be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Rasgar/Sangue na Água Pets

Pets with Rasgar and Sangue na Água provide big amounts of burst damage. Some examples of these pets include Crabs, Sharks and Crockolisk pets.

Pet

Details

Tonque de Negraluna

The Tonque de Negraluna is a useful mechanical pet. Abilities such as Choque e Admiração and Canhão Iônico allow for high burst damage.

This pet can be bought for 90 Cupom Premiado de Negraluna during Darkmoon Faire, or can be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Dragonete Mecânico Pandarênico

Dragonete Mecânico Pandarênico is another great PvP mechanical pet. Isca and Seta Trovejante are great abilities, however this pet really shines against Magic pets. Mechanicals take 33% less damage from Magic, and on top of that, Sopro is strong versus Magic, making this pet one of the best Magic attackers in the game.

This pet can be bought and sold on the Auction House, or created from Dragonete Mecânico Pandarênico.

Gnomo Movido à Corda

The Gnomo Movido à Corda provides a good kit of abilities while having some healing and sustain. Construir Torreta can be stacked, and Consertar can be used in conjunction with Mau Perdedor to avoid death. The turrets can be stacked and used in a Tempestade de Raios team.

This pet is learnt from Dwarven Archaeology, and can be caged and therefore bought or sold on the Auction House.

Zepelim de Negraluna

The Zepelim de Negraluna is another good choice for a mechanical pet. With the ability Isca and Seta Trovejante it comparable to Dragonete Mecânico Pandarênico, however more focused on Mehanical type attacks such as Míssil, making it good against beasts.

This pet can be bought for 90 Cupom Premiado de Negraluna during Darkmoon Faire, or can be bought and sold on the Auction House.

Always stay one step ahead! Try and predict what move your opponent is going to do. For example, if you are playing against a Nanico do Kun-Lai, you know once Choque Gélido comes out that Congelamento Profundo is coming next! Prevent the 100% stun chance by swapping out to another pet, removing the Choque Gélido and making Congelamento Profundo less of a threat.

If someone else keeps beating you with a team, counter them! Because of long pet battle queues, you will likely end up playing against the same player multiple times. If they keep relentlessly beating you, set up a team to specifically counter their pets!

Steal other peoples teams! It may be a bit unethical, but hey, if you want to win, you have to use the winning teams! If you keep playing against the same team and keep losing, take the team and start winning!

Sometimes the best team can be something completely random! Since many of the overpowered pets have been nerfed, I've found PvP pet battles to allow more experimental teams. It is good to run these as others could find it difficult predict your strategy if they've never played against the team before.

I have noticed that for starting pet battle players if you run in to the same team over and over and just simply cannot counter them if you wait 10 minutes are so you can see if you get a different opponent. I found this out the hard way one morning when I kept getting stomped by a team. Also, if you do not know right off the bat how to counter a team research. that team and what counters it. This is the way to find out how to improve your own game play.

Comentário de Harpooha

In Pet Battle Hell, people who use swap teams are forced to face each other for eternity

Comentário de Jangeoffry

Alright, hear me out here. The Cockroach may seem like a really bad pet, and it is, most of the time. This isn't a pet to create a team around...

Well, I had put together teams around S/S cockroaches (2,2,2) and can say they were quite tough to beat, specially if you pair your cockroach with two high dps pets. Cast apocalypse, bring 2 enemy pets down and win. Last few rounds you may want to use Flank + Survival to a 2 round imortality. More than once I won the battle with only 1 HP. I laughed for hours after that

Comentário de djkillj0y

Some specific criticisms:

1. I'm never a fan of using limited edition pets in a general guide. As a player who just came back after a long absence I see strats that call for molten corgi or purple puffer and I cringe. Some pets are hard to get, some are nearly mind numbingly hard to farm and some are just gold expensive and then there's blizzcon pets which are both OP and impossible to get normally. Bad form. Find something people without an extra $500 lying around can get.

2. guide bloat - specifically the table of family counters and the short explainer on breeds. This isn't a general guide, it's an overview of how PVP in BFA is impacted. If you need that kind of info I'm sure there are other 101 guides out there with the same info. Neither adds anything to the discussion of how BFA has impacted PVP and nothing in the section following it uses that information.

3. A grand total of 3 pets listed in your teams and suggested pets are actually from BFA so while I agree that BFA has probably changed the landscape of pet battles almost all of these pets have been around since WoD.

The opening section reprints info better found in https://www.wowhead.com/notable-battle-pets-by-family-guide

BreedIDs for the Serious Pet Battler covers the breeds in much more detail.

Comentário de Rosqo

I have doubts about the accuracy of the information within this guide some of the pet recommendations seem incorrect. Kun-lai runt whilst not fiendish or rebellious imp as an example are not good picks

Comentário de cathline

For a pvp pet battle guide I was expecting a little more info on how the battles actually work. Like can you switch talents on the pets before the fight actually starts? Are you stuck using the team exactly as it was built when you queued, that kind of info. I'm experimenting with this just so i can get that darn shady message but this is the general kind of info I was looking for. If anyone knows where that info is, please let me know.

Comentário de Gunnerb52

Are you supposed to get some kind of reward when you win? I got pet charms every time I won but there was one guy who quit right before he lost and both times I got nothing. Is that supposed to be that way? If someone quits you get nothing?
