Polar Cat Project

For this pet I'm hoping to get spritely, proof, defying and one of the following talents:

Pips o plenty

may cast tower shield

pierce train

may cast balance blade

pain giver

Today's Hatch resulted in a polar cat so that is good!

Duke Lola - seraph - pedigree 62 - (spritely, proof, defying, pierce train)  +  Duke Chloe - Polar Cat - Pedigree 62 - balance blade card - (dashing, may cast smoke screen)  =  Duke Otis - Polar Cat - Pedigree 63 - (pain giver, proof, pierce train, astute)

lineage:

Princess Orio - Fragmented Dragon - Pedigree 64 (dashing, spell proof) +  Lady Bentley - Polar Cat - Pedigree 60 - (pain-giver, spritely, spell-defying, smoke screen)  =  Duke Chloe - Polar Cat - Pedigree 62 - balance blade card - (dashing, may cast smoke screen)

Lady Sasha (seraph) pedigree 60 - (spritely, defying, dashing, spell proof)  + Fragmented Dragon - Pedigree 66 (pain giver, spell proof, spritely, may cast tower shield) =  Princess Orio Fragmented Dragon - Pedigree 64 (dashing, spell proof)

Katie - seraph - pedigree 63 - (pips o plenty, spell defying, spritely, pierce train) +  Moose - defender pig - (may cast tower, spell proof, spritely, spell defying) created Lady Sasha - pedgree 60 - (spritely, defying, dashing, spell proof 

Haley (tower shield card, spritely) hatched with Oliver (Pierce train, pip o plenty, spell proof, spell defying) created Katie (spritely, spell defying, pips o plenty, pierce train) - pedigree of 63

Finally!

...and finally we have a winner.  I would have preferred spritely, proof, defy, pips o plenty, but this will work.  It gives 5% defy and 9% proof which is not perfect, but not bad!  I'll be using this pet on my life wizard:

Here is the lineage:

Lady Sasha seraph - pedigree 60 - (spritely, defying, dashing, spell proof) + Katie - seraph - pedigree 63 - (pips o plenty, spritely, spell defying, pierce train) = Duke Lola - seraph - pedigree 62 - (spritely, proof, defying, pierce train)

Katie - seraph - pedigree 63 - (pips o plenty, spell defying, spritely, pierce train) +  Moose - defender pig - (may cast tower, spell proof, spritely, spell defying) created Lady Sasha - pedgree 60 - (spritely, defying, dashing, spell proof

Haley (tower shield card, spritely) hatched with Oliver (Pierce train, pip o plenty, spell proof, spell defying) created Katie (spritely, spell defying, pips o plenty, pierce train) - pedigree of 63

Now onto the polar cat and sturdy dragon pets.

Pet Progress

There has been no physical pet hatching progress...only deeper thinking going on about which pet I really want.  

After a few more pvp practice rounds, I've decided that I need to choose a pet for functionality over looks.  Sad but true.  I'm a little disappointed because one of the things that I have always liked about the wizard101 pet system is that everyone isn't running around with the same pet because there is one BEST pet.   However, more and more I have seen this with many serious pvp players choosing pets with a dryad card, and now I know why.  It's too bad that there isn't a way to shift cards from pet to pet just as we can with talents.

I've decided to focus for a bit on a sturdy dragon since it has the dryad card and I prefer it over the ninja pig.

Although I know that I want spritely, pips o plenty, and spell proof (still undecided about the final talent), first I need to work on the dragon's pedigree as it's very low at 44, and of course it does not have a single good talent.

This is when all of my gardening will come in handy!

My first hatch resulted in a seraph which I deleted.  I wonder what I'll get next!

Which Pet to Hatch?

I am at a stuck point with my pet hatching, and I'd really appreciate any and all input that I can get!

First, I'm torn about which talents I should go for.  My wizard is a legendary storm wizard.  I'm looking to get more involved with PVP, but I also still do a lot of questing, helping friends, etc.

I'd like a seraph pet with pips o plenty, spritely, and spell proof.

I'm a little torn on the last talent.  I was thinking of the following as possibilities:

Spell Defying
May Cast Tower Shield (maybe it doesn't cast enough to be worth it?)
Pain Giver (I've read conflicting information about this talent)

Here's what I have so far:
(please note, tower shield card is different from may cast tower shield and I don't want tower shield card)

Haley (tower shield card, spritely) hatched with Oliver (Pierce train, pip o plenty, spell proof, spell defying) and created Katie (spritely, spell defying, pips o plenty, pierce train) - pedigree of 63

Katie (pips o plenty, spritely, spell defying, pierce train) hatched with Diesel (pip o plenty, spell proof, spritely, spell defying) and created Sir Cosmo (pierce train, spell defying, myth giver, pain giver) - pedigree of 67

Katie (pips o plenty, spell defying, spritely, pierce train) hatched with Moose (may cast tower, spell proof, spritely, spell defying) and created Lady Sasha (spritely, defying, dashing, spell proof) - pedigree of 60

Katie (pips o plenty, spell defying, spritely, pierce train) hatched with Miss Jackson (pierce train, pips o plenty, spell proof, spritely) and created Mister Jasper (tower shield card, pips o plenty, spritely) - pedgree of 70

So my questions are:

Which of the fourth talents should I go for?  (spell defying, pain giver, may cast tower shield)
Which of my pets should I use next for hatching?  (katie, sir cosmos, lady sasha, mister jasper)
What should I look for on the pet that I'm hatching with?

Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope!  :D
