Super Squirt is live for EU realms this Saturday the 22nd of May! Super Squirt is a rare occurrence where the Pet Battle Event lines up with Squirt being active in the Garrison Menagerie. It is very rare for these two to coincide, usually only happening one or two times a year.
Squirt, or ‘Super Squirt’ as it’s known when the events coincide, is important for pet battlers for a few reasons:
With a Safari Hat or Lesser Pet Treat, you can get any pet from levels 1-25 in two battles. This can be repeated, which is why it makes Squirt so special.
Squirt can be completed in a very short amount of time, on average 2-3 minutes.
Squirt has a predictable move set, most teams will consistently win without the carry pet being defeated
Squirt is located right next to Lio the Lioness or Serr’ah, allowing you to heal pets instantly.
Recently, in patch 8.1, most Pet Battle Trainers in old continents were also made repeatable, at a reduced rate of experience. Squirt survived this experience nerf, and some other trainers did too. Family Familiar trainers (except Durian Strongfruit) still give a normal amount of experience, and can be repeated. Some of these trainers require a little more effort or RNG than Squirt, and are a lot less convenient, but are an alternative during Pet Battle Week for consistencies sake.
Notably, Sir Galveston is arguably the fastest of these trainers to repeat, however you will need to bring bandages.
Another good way to level although it may take a few days is Ashlei in Shadowmoon Valley WoD, take a Dragonkin with tail swipe, a good robot for the talbuk and just hit the elekk plushie once with the pet you want to level and bingo.
I use the Azure whelping for the first pet, then my levelling for the elekk, hit it once then switch to the iron starlette, charging attack till the elekk drops or goes to sleep, then charge, overdrive, then the charge release to one shot the talbuk then finish off the elekk. Usually takes about 3 (4??) days to level a pet from 1 to 25
You’re better off doing some of the Legion WQ’s though.
Super Squirt usually gets a lot of attention but the WQ in Dalaran yesterday (Sir Galveston) took about the same time and gets you the same XP. 1 fight during pet week takes you from level 1 to 19.
