Scootle Rainbow!

Well, you certainly have been busy! So many new scootles have bonded with Nature Hikers, it really does appear that they’re ready to be our pets! I’ve also been very successful with the potion testing. Behold, a scootle rainbow:





I’ve enlisted some help in getting elixirs made for the scootle, but for now the only way to adopt one will be to “unlock” the pet by bonding with it in the Nature Hike. Once you’ve bonded the first time, however, it seems that future scootles will immediately choose to come home with you, if you wish. I suppose they must pass the message on to their friends that you’re a good owner!

Oh, one more thing: it appears that wild scootles are genderless - but they do not keep this trait if they are changed into another species. How interesting! I can’t wait for the Subetapedia article!

These colours look amazing! Although I do like the common one, my favourites of the recolours are lilac, vibrant and marsh but they all look pretty great! :)

I really love the look of the vibrant scootle, as well as the common one. The gold one is nice too, because of the rainbow growth on the shell.

For anyone who is confused about bonding with the scootle: After you click on it in the first area of the Nature Hike, don't click on it again. If you do, you'll get a message saying wait until tomorrow. Clicking multiple times makes the scootle run away. If you leave the nature hike and come back after clicking only once or twice, the scootle won't be there. That's normal. Go to the second area of the hike on the second day, and click on the scootle only once. Repeat the process in the third and fourth areas for the following days. When you've bonded with the scootle, clicking on it on day four will allow you to adopt one if you have an available pet slot. And that's it!

I am going to assume that if wait a while after scaring it off, like a day or two, that the scootle bonding activity should reset, and you should be able to try again. I don't know if this is the case, but I hope it is.

Hope this helps!

Caved and bought a miracle potion, can't wait for the special colors! The common one is still my favorite so far
Phayom
Love this creature! :)

so cute
Suzaku
Congratulations! You've adopted Sun Tzu the scootle! Take good care of it!

:D I don't know why, but the idea of a snail philosopher tickles me :D
grumblewolf
I found one on my walk but we didn't bond?! :( lol
I so want a Cherry Scootle.

BUNNY SNAILS.

This scootle seems to have bonded with you!
Would you like to give it a name and adopt it into your family?

Oh yes I would!
Moonbeam
Not seeing any the last two days on my hike. Even abandoned a lab rat to have an open pet slot thinking that would help...
beinagrind
i'm not seeing any scootles at nature walk today 8^(
Riptide
@Genevra
I dont think clicking more than once has any effect. I clicked twice everyday.
Dracona
@Laurey is it a random thing? Can you only check once a day? I've never really done the nature hike

great artwork!
erynamrod
I love the gold and vibrant! :D Can't decide what color to go with. May wait for some special ones to come out. :3
Genevra
These are quite lovely, but I wish there had been some indication that you aren't supposed to click on it more than once. I honestly thought, from what it said, that I had done something wrong or it hadn't registered that I clicked it, and when I clicked it again, it ran off and didn't come back today.
Ying
I'm love the teal on the Sun Scootle! More teal on the sun palettes please! :D
Selcoeurl
Aeolid has now joined my menagerie.
Penemuel
So cute! SO CUTE! SO CUUUUUTE!!! I love my new friend, Bootle the Scootle ?
Raevaine
Ack! I need another pet slot! mutters
Mandy
They are so gorgeous. I love snails, I definitely need to get one.
Deb
I like! 'specially the gold rainbow, I've got the Scootest scootle <3
The path to adopt one of these is a great idea
Thank you Thank you
Quirk
So you need to buy another pet slot to get it?
TamuriL_246
YeaH !! .... the Scootle bonded this evening and has decided to cometh home with me and my other Pets !!

Thank You Subeta Team, <3 and ScooTr looks forward to the new colours and choosing one for himself !!
Stiles
ooh i want a vibrant one but millions to go before i can get that slot and you can't bond until you do apparently. i'll get you my pretty <3
Yang
!!!! these are fantastic!! 0: gosh. goshgoshgoshgoshgosh. <3 <3 <3
Marine
Oh, they're all so cute. <3
So if you adopt one and change it into something else, does its gender get randomized? Or do they have a unique snail gender (which makes sense, given how snails+slugs often work in real life)? I don't know if I'd ever have one of these as-is, but it would be a really appreciated work-around to buying a Genderless Berry. :')
Neverfell
Many, MANY FRIENDS I LOVE THEM
Possum
I was planning on saving up the money to get the last 4 original MC pet slots in one go.

I threw that out the window to adopt Lydell (goodbye, 1,4-- standing for Richest User).

I have no idea what color I want to make this cute little gastropod.
kytten
"Congratulations! You've adopted Scootalootle the scootle! Take good care of it!"
LOVE THEM ALL SO MUCH AHHHHHH
Brioche

Lantern

Elwyn
Love my new Scootle!

the cherry one........ oh my god.......... i love...........
Hellbent
They're adorable! I'm glad one of them bonded enough with me for me to take them home today. I think I'm going to turn them into gold, I really like the rainbow flower. :)
LadyTamarwen
For the love of all things holy... I NEED ONE!!!
Kinky
I love the Gold one's rainbow succulent, and that the Cherry one looks like a little strawberry.
Lea
I love this new pet so much omg ;o; Someday... when I have room....
Nerds
I scared off my Scootle. Please come back sluggy friend!!
pink_dolphin
I found a Scootie on the first day. I Think I saw it the second day but not since. I check every day and still no Scootie. (sob)

WockTheMeek
@Solsticesprite it's correct, more of a yellow-orange that orange-yellow, taken from the irises of most pets that color. The Hipottu and Tigrean shade gets darker with the Aeanoid being the darkest.
Lichen
Squeeeeeee!!!! :heart:
PiplupMagby34
Wait, wild scootles are genderless?
Are we able to get a gendered one using a gender berry???
Siebold
@Fyreheart

Woe is me ??
SweetPoizon
so cute i really like the Nuclear one but im holding out in hope of a galactic or storm one :) I named mine warpspeed so i think they would fit better
Bliss
I'm loving the Arid and Nuclear!

I scared my snail off :(
FyreNWater
I accidentally scared one off two days ago. Will I get another chance to get a lovely snail/seaslug/squishy friend?
LilyValentine
THEY'RE SO CUTE I WANT TO CRY. Land sea slug snails! I NEED A NEW PET SLOT IMMEDIATELY.
RAPsody
Awesome! I'd love to see a Glade skootle
NeonDinosaur
Ok I didn’t think I needed one but after seeing that nuclear... <3
Sharl
I grabbed Coruscate early and now I'm waiting for them to have a blacklight option. Raversnail ftw!
lotus737
Yessss! Love my new pet!
HirYoshiMa
this is by and far the most gorgeous art to come out of the site recently, especially pertaining to pets. really well done by the artist.
Fyreheart
@Siebold
And they won't be cheap either. Not for at least several months until they've saturated the market a bit.
beinagrind
why did u not arrange them after the rainbow
Synth
They're all beautiful! _ I'm so glad I started bonding with one as soon as they were announced.
Samurai
Prism_270
I have been on hiatus and just returned because I saw these posted to FB. I. AM. IN. LOVE. Seriously thank you so much for making my favorite animal into a beautiful Subeta pet! :')
Siebold
@Fyreheart

Exactly! I couldn't wait and risk losing Slugger's name, but now I have to wait even longer for those elixirs! I already know I want the gold one, since I have a golden mystery snail at home.
Fyreheart
@Siebold
Same here. I grabbed Skiddles early on so I could have the name and didn't know you could bond beforehand.

Choosing a color for her will be hard though! Even just the base colors for this thing are amazing! I can only imagine what the specials will look like.
Frankenchokies
This one time, I found a snail on a log near some mushrooms, and I thought maybe it ate mushrooms, so I picked bits off and put it right in front of its face (or what passes for a snail's face), and he ATE THE MUSHROOM.

He took tiny bites and I could see the little mushroom bits going up through his transparent head.

Best day.
surutyo
They're all so beautiful! <3 Colour combinations are great X3
Siebold
Guess I'll have to aggressively check the news for an ETA on those elixirs
Kisrah
They look gorgeous! :D

I'm looking forward to special colours. The Chibi Scootle is going to be ridiculously cute! >w< And I really want to see a dolls house theme for the Nostalgic Scootle!
Balloon
I just brought home my Scootle Bulletproof :heart: Now to decide on the color, although I may keep her* common because yellow is my favorite color!

*I'm keeping her genderless but using she/her pronouns for her :heart:

She's going to be a special pet for me, because a few hours ago, my mom and I had to put our old bloodhound to sleep after many years together... and her name was Scooter. Bulletproof isn't going to be an out and out memorial pet since Topper is kind of a memorial for all my doggos, but her profile will be something about resilience and keeping on through tough times, hence her name :)
FCoD
They are so cute. I also look forward to the Subetapedia article. :)
Angelica_467
Oh wow, aqua, Dawn, and dusk are my favs!!! So cute!!!!!
Time to start saving up for another pet slot ;;
Tinkerbabe
Yay colors! I will take my time deciding for sure. I may not get another Scootle because I still am hooked on Blobs, lol. There are never enough pet slots!
crashingnightingales
Love all these colors! So many pretty color combinations to choose from! I decided on Dusk as a temporary color for my Scootle. Hoping to see some special colors down the road!
Thalath
I really like the touch of cyan/teal on the Sun one!
Gem
Aqua, Cream, and Vibrant are definitely my favorites. I wish that Silver and Twilight were a bit more distinct from each other (a lighter-colored shell on Silver maybe?), but overall they all look great. :D
Moonbeam
Omg the COLORS. I love! Now to decide which one to adopt first!
Victoria
Ahhhhh! Which one do i want? Vibrant was what caught my eye first but then I saw that multi color flower on the gold and now they all just look so pretty.
Makani
Now I need 200mil so I have room for an Aqua one too
Raggy
@Pagan I hope you're happy now? 15 colours all at once!

I knew the vibrant one was going to look cool. I don't really like the vibrant colour scheme but I just knew it was going to do good things for the scootle.
elka
welp, here goes my wallet! MC pet slot #8, bought! i was hoping a marsh one would exist soon, wish granted! i've been waiting for 3 years for the perfect pet for a The Neverending Story tribute (my son's name is Bastien) and this is it! if anyone remember, there was a racing snail and it was soooo adorable :O scootle is perf for it!!
"Your pet has changed into a Marsh Scootle!"
neverending story

♥️ thank you staff!!
Solsticesprite
How do you "choose to adopt" a Scootle? Is there a page on Adopt R Us?

The antennae and the flower on the Dusk Scootle look wrong. Is that orange really an accent color for that petcolor?
Laurey
They're all so pretty, I don't know which one I like most. ;~;
Cheshire
Oh my gaaaawwwwwwwd i love them!!!!!!!!
Phlizz
Your pet has changed into a Dusk Scootle!

After buying the MC pet slot, and the potion, I now have just barely enough sP left to do Saggi quests tomorrow.

...Totally worth it. :D
Siebold
... (-_-)
Carlita
I have to say that when I saw it for the first time, I wasn't so excited. I mean, it looked cute for me but nothing tells me that I need one.
Now, I see this and the Aqua one touched my heart <3 I need it!!
Freya
omg I am at work so I can't make for real squealy noises but OMG SQUEALY NOISES
DarkVixen28
-flails- I want to finish bonding with my scootle but I CAN'T THINK UP A DECENT NAME! ;.; Names...picking names - forever a bane of my existence whenever the opportunity arises!
Muerte
I love theeeese
... To be honest this would have been a great time to bring in genderfluid pets, which could have lead to a berry in the MC with the others.
adelaide
Ahh I love them!!!
Tamino
They are all so pretty _ I can't decide what color mine should be...
TamuriL_246
@Rah
awwww.... somehow I missed that step ... word.
well, thank you for the clarification and I shall continue to bond and hopefully bring one home <3
Georgie
As in "taste the rainbow"?
Wondering if there will be an achievement for owning one of these
Flower
Love the gold's multi color flower
PUNK
@Rah - okay, thanks for clarifying :)
Rah STAFF
@Tamuril - you have to choose to adopt it, and go to the page where you give it a name!
Rah STAFF
@PUNK - not right now, but soon!
TamuriL_246
<3 Scootles are awesome!
I thought one had bonded with me (as I have been trying since their discovery) ... it stated that it would follow me home today, but alas ... she sighs it did not appear in my Pet Home with my other Pets ... I hope one shall ....
Baggy
It's exciting to see a snail pet, I'm so happy about these guys!
PUNK
Can I just check - you need a pet slot to get one? No way to change an existing pet?
Whitemoon
I'm taking the vibrant scootle! :D
Tali
I saw the "new news" notification and I was like "PLEASE BE THE SCOOTLE COLORS" and I am not disappointed!
ShinyPikachu
I love the scootle rainbow!
...Time to start saving up for another pet slot.
