So how many parentless hybrids are out there?

Post by Sophist »

Just wondering, how (un)common are parentless hybrids? I know they were derived from some earlier glitches in the system, right?

I've actually have been meaning to ask something similar, please don't mind if I piggyback a little and ask specifically, which hybrids have been released in the black market?

They're somewhat uncommon to rare, as not many people typically sell them (especially the older ones). Fire and Ice Gryphons seem to be the most commonly sold, from what I've seen. Master Belmos has some in stock, and some people sell them (or the items to transform the creatures, like the Gryphon Carving or the Pearl for Fog Rays) from time to time.

This thread (2016) has some interesting info about older ones/crashborns: 8-community-discussion/208661-what-pare ... tream.html I'd say the rarest are the parentless Direcore — I read somewhere that they are only 30 in the system due to a glitch/restoration/etc.

@lolacharm~
I know that Chimera, Albino Nandi Bears, Pearlen Wasps, Yellow/Orange/Gold Farir, and Atoll/Silt/Reef Leviathans have been sold in the Black Market. There are parentless Purple + Golden Pygmy CWs/Gemdragons as well, though I'm not sure if they're from the BM? Maybe?

A total of 37109 parentless hybrids as of this moment, which is 0,4% of all existing creatures. :yarly:

There's a total of 533902 hybrid creatures, so about 7% of them are parentless.

Most common parentless hybrid is Ice Gryphon. Rarest parentless hybrid is Albino Direcore. Parentless hybrids of every hybrid species exist.

So there's a parentless Cheminna somewhere? And parentless versions of the newer Crystalwings?
Outside of Black Market, how do these hybrids come to be? Mysterious site errors?

So here's another question: With parentless hybrids, why do some have birthdays and others don't? Is that indicative of how they were formed?

Also, are all the older parentless hybrids the result of system glitches?

I think that a lot may have come from the purge that happened when the crash happened a while back.I bought two parentless chimeras a couple years ago from Belmos (if my memory serves correctly); so I know that at one point he sold those.

If you need a gender swap feel free to PM Me; I have an excess of gender potions at the moment. I don't mind swapping a critter for you and sending them back.
