Pet Forest Tier List
Rank what pays, what you collect, and what you only screenshot.
A Pet Forest tier list has to say what it is ranking. Income is not the same as index completion, and a limited Alien pet can be S-tier for collection while C-tier for coins after the event. This hub is the income-first list. Coat math lives on Mutation Tiers. Timed rows live on Limited Event Pets.
Numbers below are community-scale, not a datamined API. Footage cites millions, billions, and trillions per tick depending on species, size, Chromatic, and mutation. Use the income planner to compare two pets you actually own instead of arguing about a screenshot from another server.
S — print the forest
Event and showpiece earners that community sessions treat as plot-defining: huge Chromatic cupcake crabs, candy or angelic gummy sharks, and other limited animals that display trillion-class ticks. If you see one on a neighbor’s base, that is what a Cloning Tool is for. Do not grind these. Slot a spare if they are event-tagged.
A — strong legendaries and Elusive payers
Phoenix lines, high dragons or wyverns in the billions, Ancient desert wildlife such as elephants from marula-class trees, and Elusive animals that still beat a full row of commons. Jerboa sits here for many players because of demand, not because every jerboa out-earns a crab. Hunt routes are on Elusive Pet Hunting.
B — solid biome completes
Starry foxes and cats from starfruit, sea turtles from palms, steampunk or vampiric versions of mid species, and large farm animals that look great but need a coat to matter. Keep one for the collection checklist. Replace the rest when an A walks in.
C — early plot fillers
Candy sheep, common coyotes, quail, and anything the farm bushes spam. They teach the loop in Getting Started. They should not occupy a tile after your first good palm or birch session.
D — cute traps
Pets people refuse to grind because they look like Adopt Me cousins. If the tier list and the planner disagree with your feelings, trust the planner for money and the checklist for love. You can keep one mushroom bunny. You cannot keep twelve and also afford a Heatwave tree.
How to use the list in a session
- Sort most valuable in front using controls.
- Replace the worst visible tile, not a random back-row favorite.
- Stop to extract only when Mutations and Chromatic says the coat is a duplicate.
- During the Alien Event, park limited aliens even if their tick is mid. Timed rows have a second value.
- Recheck this hub after Admin Abuse. Admin pets can skip a letter grade overnight.
This list will stay conservative. We would rather put a species in B with a note than invent an S-tier income for a fox we have not seen pay.
Recheck your front row after every clone, not after every decoration. The list is a compass. Your plot is the map. If they disagree, believe the tick on the pet you own.
If your plot disagrees with S-tier for a week, you are not wrong. You may be early. Keep the list, keep the ticks, and move one tile at a time. A tier list that demands a full rebuild every session is a bad list.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions.
Is this tier list based on official stats?
No. It uses community income readings and official rarity tags. Compare your own pets in the planner.
Should I always keep Elusive pets?
Keep them for the index. Equip them only if they beat your weakest earner.
Where do mutations rank?
On Mutation Tiers. A Candy coat can lift a C species into B.
Why is a limited pet high if it earns less?
Limited rows vanish. Collection value is covered on Limited Event Pets.
