FAQ
Does chance mean hatch chance?
No. Chance is the odds of the pet mutation itself, not the odds of getting the base pet from an egg or merchant.
What does pet sell multiplier represent?
It shows the value multiplier tied to the mutated pet when that multiplier is listed. It is useful for telling apart purely utility-focused mutations from ones that also carry extra sell value.
