Pick pets by objective
Kitsune leads documented base speed and jump; archived Dragon leads base income. For earlier objectives, Kangaroo and Spider offer useful jump comparisons, while Horse matters for the documented first rebirth. The best practical choice depends on which of those jobs you need and which pets you already own.
Choose by the job you need done
Start with a concrete task: make a flat return faster, clear an obstacle more reliably, compare income, or meet the first rebirth requirement. Each task asks for different evidence. The following shortlist uses specific card fields or the agreed first-rebirth record rather than scoring all pets against a hidden mixture of goals.
A long-term movement leader is not a required starting point. If you already own Kangaroo and Horse, you can compare those two today instead of delaying every hunt until Kitsune appears. Work from your actual collection, then use stronger baselines as future comparison targets.
| Objective | Candidate | Documented reason |
|---|---|---|
| Top base movement | Kitsune | 1B speed and 170 jump |
| Higher-jump earlier option | Kangaroo or Spider | 125 or 129 jump |
| First rebirth | Horse | Horse plus $1M in the first requirement |
| Later movement comparison | Phoenix | 1M speed and 146 jump |
| Highest base income field | Dragon (archived) | 300M income in revision 458 |
Compare realistic alternatives in your collection
Horse has 5.34K base speed and 108 jump; Kangaroo has 3.05K speed and 125 jump. Horse is the stronger speed baseline, while Kangaroo is the stronger jump baseline. That gives you a reason to test both on a climb instead of treating Horse’s harder hatch label as proof it wins everywhere.
Phoenix versus TRex is a different comparison: Phoenix leads all three adopted base fields. Even then, inspect the owned cards. Feeding and mutations may mean your upgraded TRex is not represented by the bare 266K speed baseline. A species table identifies a candidate; your current card settles the next test.
Keep useful pets while concentrating the next investment
Do not remove Horse just because another ride is faster when your next objective is the first rebirth. The cited record and a separate panel report agree on Horse plus $1M. Later rebirth requirements disagree between sources, so this shortlist does not invent a complete pet-retention order.
After identifying one useful upgrade, direct the next feeding or route test toward that role. Recheck income independently from movement, and preserve the archived status when comparing Dragon. This prevents a top-stat name from becoming an automatic spending recommendation for every account.
Pick pets by objective: common questions
Which pet is best for beginners?
Start with an owned pet that completes your return route. Compare speed and jump rather than waiting for a top-end hatch; Kangaroo, Spider and Horse illustrate different useful roles.
Should Dragon replace Kitsune as my main ride?
The adopted cards favor Kitsune for speed and jump, while archived Dragon favors income. Inspect your current owned cards and choose the field your task needs.
