Introduction



Welcome guest. Since so many users keep neomailing me on how to get a draik and krawk, I've decided to dedicate this petpage to them.

If you're still confused even after reading through the guide; then feel free to neomail me. Just please be specific in your questions regarding clarification on a certain section.

Please Note: - When comparing prices between user run shops (shop wiz, trading post, auction house) and main neopian shops (meridell food shop, tyrannian petpet shop, chocolate factory etc), please consider the general rule of supply and demand.

  • When supply is low in main shops, prices will be high in users shops.
  • When supply is high in main shops, prices will be low in users shops.

With this I ask that you please do not badger users because of thier prices on the trading post/auctions. Some users were kind enough to share the main shop prices to help fellow users.

With everything put aside, just keep in mind that sometimes the road that appears to be the easiest is often the most difficult road to travel.

Happy Trailing!





Special Thanks


  • Shadow - who recorded the RS price for a red draik potion.

  • Melonman - who recorded the RS price for purple draik, starry draik, yellow draik and red krawk morphing potion. As well as info for the plushie draik potion.

    If you had a chance encounter with a rare restock for draik/krawk potions or magical plushies, feel free to neomail me with the tale.




How To Get A Draik



Draiks - General Info


  • Draiks were once released through the create-a-pet option. However only 7,000 draiks were released and no more have been found there since.
  • When the eggs came out, draiks were unoffically labelled as restricted pets and became just as tideous to get as the krawks. Because of the price tag to get one, TNT have stated in the Neopian Times that draiks will never be released through the create-a-pet. This includes their perspective pet days.
  • Draik eggs are a gormet food item so be careful as you might actually feed them to your pet if you're not careful. Unless of course you want to feed them to get the gormet food points.lol
  • There has been 1 proven account of the lab ray changing a pet into a draik. This is extremely rare and you're probably better off going through the potion or egg. However it is a proven option.


The Draik Eggs


  • So far there are currently only 6 different eggs to choose from; Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Darigan and Ice.
  • It has now been proven that draik eggs CAN be won by completing the original treasure map as mentioned in the Neopian Times. No other treasure map will work and your chance of winning is extremely rare.




    Piece Of A Treasure Map

  • Draik eggs can be purchased from other users using the trading post or auction house.
    (See Chart Below for Prices)
  • These eggs can on rare occasions be restocked from the meridell food shop only. They restock just a few every so many weeks at random intervals, day or night.

  • On draik day, TNT lowers the rarity index on the eggs so they restock more often for just that one day. The confirmed amount of eggs purchased on draik day 2004 was approximately 10 eggs.
  • Once you have obtained a draik egg, you can take it to the draik nest where they can be hatched into a draik pet. Unfortunately the draik nest is not loacated on any map as of yet. Now in order for this step to work you need to have 3 or less pets.
  • The draik you hatch from the egg will be the same colour as the egg you turned in. Unlike the create a pet you won't get the option to choose if its friedly to other pets or loves to bully. Its automatically set to default.
  • You cannot pick the gender of your new draik so name it wisely.
  • You can hatch them at any time of the year. Its not limited to a certain day each year.

Draik Morphing Potions


  • There are currently 12 different morphing potions for you to choose from.
  • The draik morphing potions can be used to change one of your current pets into a draik. No need to worry about naming the pet for fear of getting the wrong gender.
  • The morphing potions can be bought from the trading post and auction house.
    (See Chart Below for Prices)
  • The draik morphing potions rarely restock at Kauvaras Magic shop only. Visit Melonman for RS screenies!

Squishing Rumors


  • Draik eggs CANNOT be found through random events. Anyone who claims this is just seeking attention or trying to scam you. This was even stated in the Neopian Times.
  • You CANNOT get an egg by going to the nest. You have to already have one in your inventory.
  • You CANNOT get draik eggs from any treasure maps other then the original 'Piece Of A Treasure Map'.
  • Watch out for users trying to sell a yellow draik egg. If the price is too low to be true it probably is. Make sure they have it in trades as proof and that it says 'Yellow Draik Egg' and not 'Yellow Draik Egg (TCG)'.




How To Get A Krawk



Krawks - General Info


  • Krawks are the only pet that have never been released to the public in mass either through the create-a-pet, space station or by any other means. Because of their rarity and cost TNT have stated they will never release them through any of the steps above mentioned. This means it will never be released on krawk day.
  • The petpet krawk was actually released way before krawk island and before they came out with the neopet krawk. Its the only petpet that managed to become a pet in a strange twist of fate.
  • It is not confirmed or disproved if krawks are obtainable from the lab ray or not. All there is, is a quote from a neopian times editorial found on this petpage for lab ray F.A.Q's.


The Petpet Krawk


  • There is really only one krawk, but it can be painted 17 different colours, including its original colour if you no longer wanted it painted say, blue.
  • The petpet krawk is just called 'krawk'. The only exception to this is if the petpet was painted a different colour at the petpet puddle. For an example check out my draik's petpet named Grignac which means rock if you ever watched the movie Galaxy Quest.lol
  • The petpet is sold in the trading post and auction house. (See Chart Below for Prices)
  • The petpet is rarely sold in the tyrannian petpet shop only. You can ONLY buy it as a plain 'krawk'. If you want a different colour you'll have to paint it.

  • Once you have the petpet, you need to equip it to one of three or less pets in order for it to work. Then give it a name that does not exist yet and take it to the fungus caves on krawk island and let it eat the fungus.
  • You can find the fungus caves HERE or go to krawk island and click on the first cave next to smugglers cove.
  • As of 11/22/2006, TNT have stated that the gender of the petpet krawk when taken to the fungus caves is randomly picked.
  • When the petpet eats the fungus to become the full grown krawk version, it will be the same colour as you got it as. In this case, the regular krawk petpet just known as 'krawk' will be green.

    This comes in handy if you want to own a more expensive krawk such as plushie and do not want to buy the actual paint brush worth over 2 million nps alone. Or get two avies in one by feeding fungus to a pink krawk petpet,then get one for owning a krawk and for feeding a pink pet popcorn.


Krawk Morphing Potions


  • There are only 4 morphing potions for the krawk. In the neopian times it was mentioned that there will be no more created beside the basic colours.
  • They can be used to change one of your current pets into a krawk pet.
  • They can be bought from the trading post or auction house, but are very rarely put for sale.
    (See Chart Below for Prices)
  • They can also be RARELY sold in Kauvaras Magic Shop along with all other morphing potions. However because they are rare I do not have prices for you. Just keep alot of nps out on hand if you wish to attempt it.

Magical Krawk Plushies


  • The are currently only 4 different plushies to choose from.
  • The magical plushies will change your pets colour and species into that plushie. For instance: if you let your pet play with a magical blue krawk plushie, it will become a blue krawk. The plushie is a one use item. Afterwards it will become a plain krawk plushie.
  • This rare plushie is sold in the trading post and auction house. (See Chart Below for Prices)
  • It can RARELY be restocked at the new plushie shop. Since it is extremely rare, I do not have a price range for you.

  • WARNING - Do Not confuse it with the regular krawk plushie! Both types of plushies look exactly the same. Only one does NOT change your pet into a krawk. Remember is MUST say "Magical" otherwise it won't work. Watch out for Scammers.


Squishing Rumors

  • Petpets that have been zapped by the petpet lab ray into krawk petpets cannot be transformed into full grown krawks.
  • You do not need dubloons to buy a krawk petpet from the petpet shop. To clarify this better, krawk petpets are strictly a tyrannian petpet and can be purchased by regular neopoints.
  • Krawkadons do NOT become krawks. This includes any petpet sold in the krawk island petpet shop. Remember krawk island was named because its where you take the petpet to make it a pet, not purchase it.


    Dang!


  • Krawk plushies do not change pets into krawks. Only 'Magical' krawk plushies can do this and its a one use item.


Transmogrification Potions


  • The trans potion is different from the other morphing potions as all trans potions change your pet into mutant versions of the pet and cannot be bought from any main neopian shops.
  • The transmogrification potion can be bought from the trading post and auction house only. Even with the cost, it is by far the cheapest method.

  • If you're lucky you can get it for FREE!! This is the cheapest method if your luck holds true to form. This is all thanks to the Rare Random Event from Doctor Sloth.


    All Hail Sloth!

  • Now, Doctor Sloth doesn't just hand out Draik/Krawk trans potions. He is the only source from which trans potions flow from, so this means you're not guranteed to get the potion you want if he deems you worthy of a visit. You might just walk away with a Moehog trans potion instead.
  • If you absolutley cannot stand mutant krawks here's a couple ways to change that.

    1. Buy a paint brush and paint it. Pretty basic.

    2. Do not feed or play with it until it becomes unhappy. This may seem cruel to some, but there is a random event that will change your pets colour if its unhappy to blue and some now say red. Completely free of charge.

    3. Feed your pet a turnip tonic. Will randomly change your pet(s) colour to one of the 4 basic. (Red, Blue, Green, Yellow)

    4. Feed your pet certain neggs.

    A) Kaleideonegg - Risky - It can change your pets battle stats for better or worse. Can also change species, gender and colour. More like a one time Lab Ray zap. Use at own Risk.

    B) Plaid Negg - Raises the level of one random battledome faerie ability and may paint your pet a basic colour. (Red, Blue, Green, Yellow) Not always guranteed.

    C) Vortex Negg - This negg will paint your pet one of the four basic colours. (Red, Blue, Green, Yellow).

    All neggs are a one time use item.

Squishing Rumors


  • Transmogrification potions are Not Sold at Kauvara's Potion Shop.
  • Painting a mutant draik will not change the species back. It will remain a draik only the colour would have changed.




Changing the Gender

There are 3 ways to change the gender of your pet, some more risky then others. They are as follows in the chart below:

Type Method Requirement Recommendation

The lab ray scientist
  • Refresh the page where you select which pet to zap until you are challenged.
  • Battle the scientist, win or loose, he'll change your pets gender when he uses his mini ray gun.
  • Have completed the 'secret laboratory map' and turned in all 9 different pieces.
Safer than using the lab ray itself.

Kaleideonegg
  • Feed to your pet. One time use.
  • Purchase from the Neggery in Terror Mountain with negg tokens or from the trades/auction house.
  • Extremely Risky. It acts like a Lab Ray zap. It can change species, colour, gender and stats. Use at own risk.

The lab ray
  • random while zapping your pet(s)
  • Have all 9 pieces of the secret laboratory map and go to games - puzzles - treasure maps to turn them in.
  • Strong risk of loosing your draik/krawk to a species change. Don't risk unless you want to attempt the robot draik and are not worried about loosing your pet.

Strange potion
  • Feed a strange potion to your pet.
  • Buy the strange potion from either the trading post, auction house or kauvaras potion shop.
  • Not recommended unless you have millions of nps to waste, or have endless hours to wait for kauvara potion shop to restock.




The Neopian Pound



What To Do and Not To Do

I personally do not approve of the pound but I guess I should mention it as a possiblity.
  • With the New Transfer ability, you may now see less of krawks and draiks entering the pound. Users are now assured of no pound sniping while transferring to a secondary account.
  • The only other time you may see a draik or krawk enter the pound is if someone is sincerely quitting. Since they are extremely hard to get nobody just creates one to throw away so easily. Make sure to check the Pound board or adoption agencies created through guilds for lists of possible adoptions.
  • Never create a topic asking for pets on the help board. Users who see it as a rude attempt at obtaining a pet worth a few million will consider it "open season".

Limited:
  • Not made readily available.
  • Were once released through the create-a-pet.


  • Because draiks were once released through the create-a-pet, they are labelled limited edition rather then restricted as they are now treated.
  • Grundos have never been made available through the create-a-pet. Rather they can only be created from the grundo space station at any given time but maintain a restricted status.
  • For further clarification read editorial 277



Please Note



  • Prices are updated only once a month when I have time. Be sure to check when this page was last updated if you go by my prices.
  • Users 3 months and younger cannot view items with a rarity of 90 or more in the main neopian shops.
  • Warning - Prices on krawk petpets/potions and draik eggs/potions in trades and auctions increase dramatically the month before their perspective pet day. Buy before then or wait until two months after for inflation to drop.
