Pet color dilema...

Fri Jul 23, 2004 9:24 pm

Wow! Today I accidentally clicked the "zap" button twice, so I never got to see what happened to my pet. I just assumed it was something meaningless like always. Then just now I went to bug Turmmy and noticed my pet got turned snow! (I know, sounds like a gloat to me, too, but I'm getting to the point :-P)

My problem is, my pet (Flier4ever) has a name that would indicate it's a flying pet. I know technically kiko's fly, I mean I guess they could just roll around to get places, but that would be odd... anyway, I've been zapping in hopes of her changing to a draik. She was origionally a korbat, but I decided she needed a change. Should I keep her as a snow kiko? I've got another pet that I'm thinking should be a usul so I might switch to zapping her instead.

I guess what I'm really asking is do you think the image fits the name...

Awwwwwwwww the Snow Kiko is so...
ADORABLE!
It's your choice though. I don't really care about names and stuff...
If you really want your pet to be a flying one, continue to zap, but personnaly, I won't really matter...

kiko's fly (bounce) automatically so i don't think it matters a lot :P

my pet turned snow a few days ago too

Personally, I'd keep it the way it is because I think snow pets rock. Although, you're probably rightly concerned about the name. Kikos, if anything, kind of levitate. But I wouldn't worry about the name too much if you like the color. There are certainly weirder pet names...

Snowballs fly too. When you throw them.

I think the name works perfectly. I believe that Kiko's move around by levitating and the Snow Kiko was especially made to look like a snowball. :) You should keep the snow pet because that's not an easy (or cheap) color to come by. Congrats on your awesome luck! :)

The name is OK--it could always be worse.

I inherited a baby kacheek with the name shoyru in it. It was originally my husband's lab pet--then it changed to a kacheek, then got turned to a jelly kacheek, then got zapped by boochi and turned to a baby kacheek. I wouldn't let him keep zapping it once it turned baby, even with the ill-fitting name, so he gave it to me. My baby is just a little mixed up is all.

I just realized I have really good luck with kikos, which is also a factor here, heh.

On other accounts I have a robot kiko and a snot kiko. I think I'll go with my origional draik plan on this one because of it's insuperior coolness when compared with the other kikos I have. :roflol:

I think the snow kiko looks awaesome, keep it! Ignore the name, I've had that happen to my pets all the time, such as a pet named ChromeMutant that I turned baby, what a oxy moron! :)

I know the feeling. My husband has a baby kacheek named Old Boots. (Ah, you are saying to yourselves, "Another baby kacheek? Don't you have one too?" Yes, the one my husband gave me. My husband is probably the only person to have had two baby kacheeks, both of which were turned baby by Boochi.)

What a lucky Hubby! :cry: :cry: I've wanted Boochi, for like forever :(

Anyway, I LOVE the Snow Kiko! It looks adorable as it is, and snow does fly through the air.... ;)

Definitions of "flier" or "flyer" (either is actually correct :o )

1.One, such as an insect or bird, that flies with wings.
2.The pilot of an aircraft.
3.A passenger in an aircraft: special fares for business fliers.
4.A pamphlet or circular for mass distribution.
5.A step in a straight stairway.
6.Informal. A daring venture.
7.often flyer Australian. An exceptionally swift kangaroo.

So if u really wanna be "safe" you could create a pic of him/her in a plane.... like a plane from Skies Over Meridel...

Now THAT would be cool...!

aww the snow kiko is pretty cute! you should probably keep it and zap another pet! You'd probably think I'm pretty stupid but I zapped my draik in hoping to turn it mutant or maraquan and just yesterday my absolutely adorable draik became a .................. lenny :cry:
