How do you sell the pets you capture?And if you can't then what the point of capturing them?

To all the people who are saying this is just a shameless rip-off of Pokemon...have you seriously never heard of cockfighting or dogfighting? It's not as if the Japanese invented the concept of forcing animals to fight each other. It even goes back to classical times.

@Nivarea: I didn't get the expansion yet, and I can play. Costs 90 gold to train, but it's pretty fun.

Gotta say, i was skeptical at first but when i went to test out beta for MoP, about 50-60% of what i did was pet battles. It's addicting stuff, and i didn't even have my pets from my "real" toons (141 of them) i had maybe 4 from there that they randomly gave me and then whatever i caught. And while yes i've seen it stated before i'd like to reiterate, it would be awesome to have an arena, and maybe even spectator seats, (though that might harder to accomplish). Either way, unlike a few other changes, this is a home run in my opinion.

The pets you buy with real money better not out power those you can find in the game. If they do it will ruin the new feature.

I am 23 years old. Since Pokemon Red and Blue have come out, I have waited for the day we could battle pets in a huge world while trash talking and being able to fly and majestic dragons and carpets.

My dream, is coming true.

I know some of you may think that this is "childish" or they are stealing it straight from Pokemon. While yes it is a straight "rip-off" from Pokemon i don't see it as a bad thing. They are finally making a use for the hundreds of vanity pets that you can collect throughout the world of Azeroth. and besides, its fun!! Who care's if its a rip-off as long as they are having fun with it! As for "childish" i disagree, i know of many grown men out there that still like to play Pokemon and they are not childish or immature. Besides, making little pets fight till one of them "faints" or is Knocked out is not exactly a very childish notion

I thought pokemon at first too guys, but I think you are looking at it the wrong way; it's something to do while standing around, and hasn't everyone occasionally done this anyway by dueling and then only attacking pets? I think they just noticed this and are making it easier.

I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I think this looks like fun. It will keep me entertained (besides roleplaying) while I wait for a queue to pop for a dungeon or raid. I get why people are saying that it is 'childish', but I still think it looks like fun. That's my opinion.

you should be allowed to finally name your companions with this, although I'm not entirely sure.
