Very easy with the power of Chitterspine Skitterling Nov 21 2020 Update: Because of the changes to pet battles in pre-patch, the strategy needed to be slightly adjusted. It still works without RNG as long as Bucky doesn't crit your first pet with either of his Void Gates.

10	Snafu	~~I used the breed shown, it may work with others. It's important that your Swamp Croaker in slot 3 has lower HP than the Abyssal Slitherling.~~ DragonsAfterDark: In OP's absence, strategy has been updated for SLs changes. 1. Octopode Fry has replaced the Abyssal Slitherling to use Acid Touch instead of Water Jet. The Slitherling was not surviving anymore to eat the Void Gate, so we bring in the Magical Crawdad to eat it and set up Whirlpool. 2. To make sure you don't need to start & forfeit fights to lose health and have pets 2 & 3 swap properly, and to get the most out of the Acid Touch damage, the Swamp Croaker has been swapped for the Skitterling. 3. Slot 1 has remained the same, but a health restriction was placed on to make sure we have a pet survive if the Skitterling is crit.		2	0.0	0	67 1:07	7

Breed

Not every strategy can be bullet proof. This is one of them. You might have to restart it, since there are some random elements that increase the risk of your pets failing. Don't blame them, please!

Shop

Level 25+

You can use this strategy to carry a low level pet to give it experience.

Tricky

Some instructions are more difficult to follow than others. That's exactly what you might find in this strategy!

Script

The strategy offers a Script that can be used with the Pet Battle Script addon. You can copy the script by clicking on the button to the left of the pets.

Unobtainable

At least one pet in the strategy cannot be obtained anymore. If you have it, congrats!
