All New Pets in Grow a Garden Corrupted Event Update

Grow a Garden’s latest Japanese-themed expansion introduces a fascinating dark counterpart to the peaceful Zen aesthetic, bringing corrupted versions of beloved pets into the game. This update features six unique companions, including the highly anticipated corrupted variant of the Kitsune pet that offers powerful new gameplay mechanics for dedicated gardeners.

These corrupted pets can be acquired through multiple methods: completing special event quests, purchasing directly from the Zen shop, or obtaining them from the Kitsune Box. While Raiju and Corrupted Kitsune stand out with exceptional traits for experienced players, the other pets provide excellent starting points for newcomers looking to expand their collection.

The corrupted theme represents a strategic shift from traditional gardening approaches, focusing on mutation mechanics and specialized abilities that can dramatically increase your garden’s productivity and value when utilized correctly.

Strategic Analysis: Each corrupted pet serves a specific purpose in your gardening strategy. Maneki Neko provides economic benefits through fruit refunds, while the Kodama variants focus on mutation specialization. Placement matters significantly – position pets near the fruit types they affect most for optimal results.

Among the six new pets introduced in this corrupted event update, two particularly stand out for their exceptional abilities and strategic value. These premium companions can significantly enhance your gardening efficiency when deployed correctly.

Corrupted Kitsune: While the original Kitsune remains one of the game’s top-tier pets, its corrupted counterpart introduces powerful mutation mechanics without the seed-stealing behavior. This pet excels at generating lucrative corrupted mutations that can transform your garden’s productivity. The 20.55-minute cycle ensures consistent value generation throughout extended play sessions.

Raiju: This thunder-based pet offers exceptional value through its Shocked mutation ability, which multiplies plant sale values by an incredible 100 times. During thunderstorms, Raiju becomes particularly potent, applying chain lightning effects that can rapidly transform your harvests. For maximum effectiveness, pair Raiju with plants that have high base values to amplify the mutation benefits.

Common Mistake to Avoid: Many players make the error of placing Raiju in areas without adequate thunderstorm frequency. Check your server’s weather patterns and position this pet accordingly to maximize its special ability activation.

To maximize your corrupted pet collection, prioritize completing the event quests first before considering Zen Shop purchases. This approach ensures you acquire the maximum number of pets without spending premium currency unnecessarily.

Acquisition Priority: Focus on obtaining Corrupted Kodama from the NPC vendor first, as it provides immediate mutation benefits. Then work toward the Kitsune Box pets, which offer more specialized abilities for advanced gardening strategies.

Mutation Farming: For players targeting specific mutations, create dedicated garden sections with the appropriate corrupted pets. Position Corrupted Kitsune near high-value fruit clusters and Raiju in open areas where chain lightning can spread effectively during storm events.

Time Investment Estimates: Completing all corrupted event quests typically requires 3-5 hours of focused gameplay, making it achievable within a single extended session for dedicated players.
