They could totally be in the same litter, right?

Seriously, many store pets are getting more and more similar to other normal or event adopts.

I often have to go to my store pet group to recheck what is what and what even is a store pet.

I love that we're getting extravagant non-store pets, but we're had almost 10 years' worth of bimonthly store pet sets... I happen to have a fantastic memory but I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority + my memory is only put to use when I actively try to commit something to memory anyway lol

(tangentially related: I was playing DND with four of my friends and we went into combat. The DM drew our positions but wasn't thinking and marked the 6+ enemies' positions with X's even though they all had different HP levels and different skills. So we started getting confused about which enemy had which HP level and which enemy could do what kind of attack and I was the only person in this group who was keeping all 6+ enemies straight before the DM realized numbers would be better than X's LOL

inside joke: the DND newbie [that's me] has a hidden skill of OP memory

now imagine a CS newbie coming in and trying to remember all the different store pets)
Spread the word to end the word, because discrimination based on perceived or actual IQ/"intelligence" is no better than discrimination based on race, gender, etc.

Context, consistency, and clear antecedents are golden.

    the classic example of which one is the store pet:

    seriously, i don't even know how long it took me to memorize which one is the store pet and which one is the halloween release? the store pet looks ghostly and the halloween pet is similar to the store pets of that time.

    mark 'em, please.

Support for the reasons stated above.

I feel like the similarity between some Store pets and normal pets might be taken advantage of by some people with less than savory intent when trading with newer players. Not to mention that, like the stories above show, even some older players get tripped up and confused, and sometimes aren't sure which is which.

Please mark them, I can't remember which sleipnir is the Store pet either 😂

Edit: To potentially make the impact of another label on the pet less annoying, perhaps "Store pet" could be abbreviated, or maybe use some other method, like a symbol. Just a thought.

This was a good solution! It lets people know that it's a store pet, without having to add a label that interferes with the image.

I’m super excited to see that store pets now have a label to allow everyone to know that they are a store pet.

There is also a cute little C$ tag too (it is still being added).
