Individual pets
Christmas Pteri
The Christmas Pteri, rather than being candy-cane striped or having reindeer prongs attached, is based on the European Robin. They are often seen around Christmas and are frequently featured on Christmas cards.
Glowing Buzz
The Glowing Buzz glows like a firefly in its pre-Customisation version, in contrast to most Glowing pets. The current version looks like a normal Glowing pet.
Halloween Cybunny
The Halloween Cybunny is based on Bunnicula, and in the beaten pose can be seen shrinking away from the light, like a vampire.
Halloween Lupe
The Halloween Lupe in the Beaten pose is turning back from a werewolf into a Lupe, like a werewolf turns back into a man.
Relic Korbat
The Relic Korbat is based on a gargoyle.
Relic Lenny
The Relic Lenny has its tail feathers replaced by flowers.
Robot Nimmo
In the unconverted version of this pet, the emoticon on the Nimmo's chest display changed with the pet's emotions.
Starry Korbat
The Starry Korbat is the only Korbat to hang upside down in the circle pose.
Toy Vandagyre
The Toy Vandagyre is based on a Furby.
Woodland Scorchio
The Woodland Scorchio is based on the rainbow eucalyptus.
Wraith Usul
The Wraith Usul has yellow eyes to match the Shadow Usul site character.
