News 11/30 - Holy cow a new species!

[anchororange]

:o That was a surprise. Its alright though, quite cute actually. I hate the weird coloured glow they have in there eyes and the name is pretty awful. It reminds me of an Eevee for some reason.

I thought of an eevee at first, too. I also thought it was a drastic Wocky revamp, like from the Tasu to the Eyrie or something. I was confused until I realized it was a new species

I think it's a little better than just ok, but I'm not about to go out and create one or anything.

I just read the news today and I have to say I am not too impressed with the new species. Overall it looks like a wocky given stripes and Korbat ears. It is cute, but I'd have liked to have seen something a little more original, say....like a Xquid. I mean, that is what I made up to fill the missing X in the long list of neopets. There wasn't one for X. And well, a squid would have been different at least. This thing, well it is cute and everything, but I just don't see how it is much different than say, a kyrii, a wocky, and Yurble. We already have plenty of fluffy pets with manes/ruffs.

I think Xweettok sounds like Sweet talk
And for fun I looked up Xweettalk just to see..and someone else had already thought of that name!
I guess someone out there thinks like I do.

I'd like it if it weren't for the eyes. Ugh. Way too anime-ish. And I like Neopets having an overall similar style- this is too different for me...


Not to mention that it was completely random...and it wasn't the April Fool's pet we're supposed to get...and then there's the Lutari. We have a crapload of pets already...and half don't get as much attention as the others...

[Baku]

I love it. o_o The Xweetok reminds me of a Badger-Wocky hybrid. xD

[.:Requiem:.]

I like it. I already have a personality and all for Aedyrn.

Well, actually....I like it as long as I can't see it's legs, especially the front ones. Eew.

[CrewWolf]

What's wrong with the legs?

Here is what the mutant Xweetok looks like:

[Archimedes]

looks like eevee from pokemon... how random

Shhh! They'll hear you and chase after you with their poke-lawyers

Seriously, I can't say I like it. Its just too... boring. I think Xquid would've been a much better idea.

Edit: Whoah - what an awesome/disgusting pic. I like your thinking, though.

[Sinyaa]

I like the Xweetok! It's kind of a mix between a chinchilla and a chipmunk.

[remybuxaplentyfan]

Hmm. The eyes and overall appearance seem a bit too Anime-ish for Neopets, whose style is usually more. . .erm. . .I think the right word would be "cartoony." It's nice looking, but doesn't exactly fit in with the rest of the pets on the site.

[Troggy7]

Did anyone find this on the server before? O0o Maybe they like, uploaded the stuff right before they added the news so no one would find it xD

[Chakra_]

this.. this.. Can't be a revamped Lutari rite?!

[TDG]

this.. this.. Can't be a revamped Lutari rite?!

No. Lutari is going to be a pet only obtained through a Cell-phone promotion I believe. And if it was, Lutari island would have been released too

[Shollia]

Hmmm.. they're just alright in my book.
Yeah they're cute but I dunno... I'm still disappointed.
It's like the same old pet with a new look.
Has the same old neck fluffy fur which I'm really getting tired of seeing on pets.
Lets count all of the pets that have those!

The new one
Cybunny
Wocky
Usul
Eyrie
Yurble

Too too many.

I was hoping for that giraffe pet we saw a long time ago. Or maybe a bear type... not... this

[Forest_Majesty]

I can't believe this is a surprise to me , usually every new species has already been talked about for months and months before being released.
It is a darling though, I like it a lot.

(Shhh! I have broken my one pet rule and adopted one- how could I not, so new and so cute? )
