Introduction

Pets are the only thing you collect in Ride A Pet, and every one of them exists to answer a single question: how fast can you move? Each pet you hatch carries a speed readout measured in miles per hour, and that number is what lets you cross the map to eggs you could never reach on foot. Pets arrive in rarity bands, from commons pulled out of the nearest nest to endgame hatches advertised in promotional artwork at odds in the "1 in 50Qa" range. Because mutation multiplies a pet's base speed, the pet you actually ride is a combination of its rarity and whatever multiplier you have rolled onto it. This hub covers how the pool is structured, what each band is realistically worth, and how to choose which pet deserves your mount slot.

Pet Groups

C

Starter Commons

starter

The first pets you hatch, and why they still matter

Speed RangeThe lowest bracket in the game, enough to leave spawn and tour the nearby nests but not enough to chase distant eggs.
RarityCommon. These fill the pool at the nest closest to spawn, so almost every account hatches several within the first session.
How to GetHatch the starter nest beside your spawn point, then mount the fastest result and immediately use it to reach a better tier.
B

Rare Mid-Tier

mid game

The workhorse bracket most accounts ride through the middle

Speed RangeA clear step up from commons, enough to make mid-distance nests routine and to shorten every route you already know.
RarityRare. These are the most common meaningful upgrade, and most players will hatch several before finding a legendary.
How to GetFarm the mid-map nests repeatedly. Because the pool is small, a few sessions of laps usually produces a usable mount.
A

Legendary Line

milestone

The first bracket that feels like a genuine account milestone

Speed RangeA large jump over rares, enough to open deeper egg routes and make previously painful journeys feel ordinary.
RarityLegendary. Noticeably less common than rares, so most accounts remember the session their first one dropped.
How to GetHatch deeper egg tiers that require a rare-tier mount to reach, which is the point where the loop starts feeding itself.
S

Secret Showcase

promo art

The headline pets advertised in official promotional material

Speed RangeThe highest values advertised, with promo renders showing extreme MPH figures, though no official speed table confirms them.
RaritySecret tier at odds advertised around the extreme end of the scale, which makes these trophy hatches rather than upgrades.
How to GetOnly from the highest-tier eggs, and only with luck. Treat any named promo pet as a bonus rather than something to farm.
S

Mutated Variants

endgame

The real endgame: one pet, multiplied until it flies

Speed RangeWhatever the base pet offers, multiplied. A strong roll lifts a mid-tier pet above a plain higher-rarity mount.
RarityVariable, because mutation applies to any pet you own. The variant is a state rather than a separate pool entry.
How to GetRepeatedly mutate the fastest pet you own, ideally on a duplicate, and stop once a result clearly beats your mount.

Core Mechanics

Every pet in Ride A Pet comes from an egg, and each egg holds its own pool of possible pets across several rarity bands. When you hatch, the game rolls against that pool and drops the result straight into your inventory with its own speed value. You then mount one pet at a time; the mounted pet sets your movement speed, and nothing else does. Rarity controls both how low the odds are and how high the speed ceiling goes, which is why an egg further from spawn is worth the journey even before you know what is inside. Mutations layer on top of the base value rather than replacing it, so the same pet can be re-rolled into something much faster. Storage matters too, since a full backpack forces you to stop and manage inventory mid-route.

Advantages

The pet system is unusually clean for a Roblox collector. There is no combat stat, no element chart and no team composition to learn: one number, speed, decides everything, so a new player can look at two pets and immediately know which is better. Because eggs sit in the world, every pet has a visible origin, and you know roughly where it came from and what it cost in travel time. Rarity bands give the collection a readable ladder to climb, from the first common you hatch to the secret-tier hatches shown in promotional material, and mutation gives even an old pet a reason to stay relevant. Six-player servers also mean the map is never stripped clean by a crowd.

Challenges

Two honest problems shape the pet hunt. First, the developer's official description does not list pet names, individual speed values or exact odds, so anything specific you read, including the names in promotional artwork, is either marketing material or community report rather than confirmed data. We hedge those claims and you should too. Second, the top of the pool is genuinely punishing: odds advertised in the extreme "1 in 50Qa" range mean most accounts will never hatch the headline pets, and grinding one nest for a single roll is a poor use of time. Storage is another limit, since a full backpack interrupts routes, and any update can quietly demote a pet you invested in.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pets are in Ride A Pet?+
The developer has not published an official pet count, so any exact number you see is a community estimate. What is documented is the structure: several rarity bands, from commons in the nearest nest up to secret-tier pets that only appear from high-end eggs. The pool also grows with updates, which means a count captured today can be wrong after the next patch. Treat the bands as the reliable information and any specific total as a dated snapshot rather than a fact.
What is the fastest pet in Ride A Pet?+
No official speed table exists, so there is no confirmed fastest pet. Promotional artwork shows high-MPH renders and headline pets such as a Dragon and a Phoenix, and the developer advertises endgame odds in the "1 in 50Qa" range, but those are marketing images rather than published stats. Practically, the fastest pet you own is whatever sits in your mount slot after your latest mutation roll. Chasing a named promo pet is far less efficient than improving the best pet you already have.
How do I get better pets?+
Move outward. Eggs further from spawn hold stronger pools, and the only way to reach them is a faster mount, so upgrading your pet is also how you unlock the next batch of eggs. Hatch every egg you can reach, swap your mount whenever something faster appears, and reinvest cash into more hatches instead of saving. Once you own a pet worth keeping, roll mutations on that pet rather than chasing a rare one you can only hatch once in a hundred sessions.
Should I keep duplicate pets?+
Duplicates are not a problem if you have backpack space, because each copy is an independent mutation target. A second copy of a good pet is effectively a free re-roll: mutate it, see whether it beats your current mount, then keep the winner and store the loser. What you should avoid is hoarding low-speed commons you will never ride. If storage fills up, clear the weakest tiers first, and remember that the Infinite Backpack game pass exists mainly to remove this cleanup chore.

Quick Tips

💡

Judge every pet by one number and ignore everything else. Ride A Pet has no combat, no elements and no team slots, so a pet is exactly as good as the speed it gives you while mounted. Before you get attached to a rare hatch, mount it and check whether it actually beats what you were riding. If it does not, store it and move on, because rarity alone never earns a mount slot.

💡

Keep a second copy of your best pet purely as a mutation target. Mutation multiplies a pet's base speed, so the best possible outcome is a high multiplier landing on your highest-speed pet. Saving a duplicate means you can roll on the spare while staying mounted on your current best, and you only swap after the roll beats it. Never mutate your only copy unless you would happily ride the result.

💡

Reach further eggs by upgrading your mount before you upgrade anything else. The distance between you and a nest is a speed check rather than a level check, so a faster pet is the key that opens every later pool. If a route feels impossible, that is usually a signal to improve your mount rather than to grind the egg you can already reach. Speed first, then everything else.

💡

Claim the Like and group-join rewards as a free early pet fund. Neither expires: they are permanent one-tap buttons that pay out cash you can convert straight into hatches. Claiming them on day one funds several extra rolls at the nearest nest, which is often where your first real speed jump comes from. There is no other source of free currency in this game, so those two buttons are the entire list.

💡

Do not grind one nest for a headline promo pet. Artwork advertises odds in the "1 in 50Qa" range and high-MPH renders, but those numbers describe marketing material rather than a farming plan. Hundreds of rolls at a single egg is the slowest possible way to improve an account. Spend the same time clearing a route across several nests, and you build both a stronger pet pool and a healthier cash balance.
