Sorry, No Shiki Taishou Pet Here, But Plenty of Genshin Goodies! (And Some Random Pet Info Too)
Hunting for a “Shiki Taishou pet?” Let’s cut to the chase: I have no guide to snagging this critter in Genshin Impact. The “Shiki Taishou pet” isn’t explicitly mentioned in my gaming knowledge.
But don’t toss your devices! We have loads of info about pets, characters, items, and quests in Genshin Impact. Plus, there are tidbits from other games. This is a detour on your pet-hunting adventure. You might discover something cooler than a “Shiki Taishou pet.”
Genshin Impact: Petting, Collecting, and Questing Your Way to Glory
Fancy a Familiar? Genshin Pets 101
Let’s discuss pets in Genshin Impact. You must wonder about companions. Like the cute Shiki Koshou? Many aim to get Shiki Koshou. Then there’s the rare Samurai Dog. Getting a Samurai dog in Genshin? These questions keep us awake (or during resin cooldowns).
The specifics about a “Shiki Taishou pet” are yet a mystery, but we can address “How do you get a pet in Genshin Impact?” Genshin offers various companions. These are obtained through events, quests, or in-game shops. Stay alert for limited-time events. They often unlock unique pets!
Characters and Quests: Unlocking Your Genshin Dream Team
Besides pets, Genshin focuses on characters. Take Sangonomiya Kokomi, for instance. Want to unlock her? Use Adventure Rank and Story Keys. Achieve Adventure Rank 26, complete prerequisite quests, and use a Story Key for Kokomi’s Story Quest, Dracaena Somnolenta Chapter. Easy, right?
Speaking of characters, ever heard about Diluc? Finding him is a mini-quest! Start at Dawn Winery for a chat, then head to a cave on Falcon Coast. Venture inside, and bam! You get to play as Diluc for a while. It’s like a character trial with story progression!
How about Noelle? This hardworking maid is ready for Hangout! Find her near Mondstadt and Springvale. To start her Hangout Event, chat with her, and you’re off on an adventure.
For those drawn to the dark side, Scaramouche, also known as the Balladeer. Unlocking him as a boss takes dedication. Progress through Archon Quest Chapter 3: Act 5 – Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies. Once you navigate that storyline, the Joururi Workshop Trounce Domain will be yours.
Item Hunting: From Swords to Sushi in Teyvat
Genshin isn’t just about pets and characters; it’s a treasure of items! Need a strong sword? The Wolf-Fang sword is a solid 4-star option from the Battle Pass, specifically the Gnostic Hymn 2 Series. Battle Pass weapons boost your arsenal nicely.
Creamed for some Japanese food? You can cook Onigiri, the usual rice ball in Genshin. But first, you need the recipe! Embark on The Gourmet Supremos: The Deep Divers World Quest, part of The Gourmet Supremos series. This quest is underground near Jakotsu Mine. Food often leads to tasty rewards!
Archery fans, listen! The Inazuma Bow, or Hamayumi, is a beauty. Getting the blueprint relies on RNG and conches. Head north of Tatarasuna, find an NPC, give him 3 mysterious conches from exploration, and open a chest. Pray to RNG gods for the Hamayumi Blueprint!
Searching for a unique weapon? The Dark Iron Sword is 3-star rarity… but with a twist. Only one copy exists by talking to Chen the Sharp, a food vendor in Liyue Harbor. It’s more for collectors than combat.
Creatures Great and Small: From Fish to Foxes (and Dragons?)
Genshin’s world teems with creatures! Want a Raimei Angelfish? Nighttime is crucial! These beauties appear between 6 PM and 6 AM in-game time. And they’re picky eaters; they bite on False Worm bait only. Speaking of that…
False Worm Bait works for all Butterflyfish family members, including our Angelfish pal. Buy the formula from Nantuck, Mondstadt Fishing Association’s rep, for 3 Medaka fish. Trade fish for bait to catch more fish – the cycle of life, Genshin style!
Ever pondered Zhongli’s pets? Our Geo Archon loves ancient reptiles. He owns two “pet dragons” (technically Geovishaps): Primo Geovishaps and mighty Azhdaha. Though calling them pets could be misleading.
And dogs! Are there dogs in Genshin? Yes! Liyue and Mondstadt are home to these furry friends. They’re interactive too – follow you, play around, and stay cute. Gorou, the devoted general, is based on a Shiba Inu! His looks are a clear nod to this breed. Ganyu is a huge dog lover and has even named all the dogs in Liyue Harbor. Though they don’t seem to recognize their fancy names. Classic dogs!
In Inazuma, you might meet Neko at Asase Shrine on Seirai Island. Neko (Japanese for “sleeping child”) is a black cat NPC. Just a friendly kitty in the world.
Gadgets and Jinni: Sorush and Liloupar’s Tales
Genshin introduces unique gadgets and companions through quests. Sorush, for instance, is obtained during The Splendorous Sky That Day World Quest. Sorush is not a gadget as you’d think; it’s turned on and off for unique interactions in certain areas. Regular gadgets work with Sorush when needed. No worries about losing your precious Kamera.
Then there’s Liloupar, a Jinni in a bottle. To obtain “Jinni in the Magic Bottle” (Liloupar), complete The Temple Where Sand Flows Like Tears World Quest in Hadramaveth Desert. Liloupar’s backstory is dramatic: she destroyed Gurabad as revenge on her husband Ormazd. Serious stuff for a bottle companion!
What about Ajaw? In Genshin lore, “Ajaw” is a strong ancient entity sealed within a bracelet worn by Kinich, a “dragon lord.” Deep lore for those curious about Genshin’s history.
Finally, there’s Vahid’s Kneaded Onigiri. This Quest Item rewards you for completing In Another Land World Quest. Like Lily’s Tea Break Pancake, you can “use” it, but it vanishes without effect. It’s more of a keepsake than consumable.
Need Groceries or a Friendly Face? Meet Aoi in Inazuma
If you find yourself wandering Inazuma City, specifically Tenryou, seek out Tsukumomono Groceries. This general goods store is run by Aoi. Need supplies? Aoi’s your gal. Don’t expect her to sell you a Shiki Taishou pet.
Pets Beyond Teyvat: A Quick Tour of Other Gaming Worlds
Now, let’s hop dimensions and glance at pets in other noted games. Your dream pet might exist in another game!
- Clash of Clans: Hero Pets. Town Hall 14 unlocks the Pet House for Hero Pets. They’re immortal and don’t have cooldowns after defeat. Sounds convenient! Lassi, pairs well with Royal Champion for extra HP and damage or with Barbarian King for faster funneling. Watch for the Poison Lizard; it has the highest DPS of any pet but survival rate is low.
- Battle Cats: Cats Galore! Want Samurai Cat? Cost 90 Cat Food after Nepal/Yamaguchi in Empire of Cats Chapter 1. Valkyrie Cat? Get it by completing Empire of Cats Chapter 2. Pogo Cat (Masai Cat)? Maybe skip it; apparently not the best meatshield due to cost and performance.
- health.
- Wobbly Life: Ghostly Companions. Unlock the Ghost Pet. Crunch a tombstone in a minecart. Sounds weird and Wobbly Life-esque. Curious about Ancient Wobbledogs? They form from cracked cores of deceased Wobbledogs. Feed them to living ones. Extend their lifespan. Morbidly fascinating.
- Wizard101: Stormzilla Power! Storm Wizards, level 48 and above, get a Stormzilla Pet after finishing a class quest. Free pet and a new spell. Not bad!
- Discord Tatsugotchi: Virtual Pocket Pets. Open your mailbox. Retrieve a starter kit. Open a capsule and choose your starter pet. Sounds like classic fun!
- Monster Hunter: Taming Kemonos. In Wild Hearts, tame Kemonos by approaching stealthily until a “catch” option shows. Build a Wildlife Cage in camp to house them. Taming Gumi requires kiting until their health is low and then taming without being one-shot. Sounds challenging! To tame Fenrir in ARK: Survival Evolved? Defeat Fenrirsūlfr boss on Fjordur. Boss battles for pets. Hardcore! For taming Kitsunes in Minecraft, breed two wild foxes with sweet berries. Berry bribery works everywhere!
- RuneScape: Chompy Chicks. Get a Chompy chick pet as a rare drop from chompy birds after completing the elite Western Provinces diary in RuneScape. Elite diaries give pet chances. Gotta grind for those companions!
Tail Tales: A Tangent into Tails and Related Oddities
Since “tail” is in “Shiki Taishou,” let’s humorously wander into tail items and abilities. Why not? It’s all connected somehow.
- Kemono Tail (again!). No clue how to get a “pet Kemono tail” specifically. Maybe it’s a Monster Hunter thing?
- Scream Tail. Want a Scream Tail in Pokémon Scarlet? Area Zero, post-main story, exclusive to Scarlet. Explore those endgame zones!
- Super Tails. In Sonic games, collect all Chaos Emeralds as Tails for Super Tails. Golden, Flicky-filled power!
- Wobbledog Tails. Tails in Wobbledogs come from breeding or achievement rewards. Genetics and accomplishments lead to wobbly appendages.
- Catcoon Tails. In Don’t Starve’s Hamlet DLC, buy Catcoon Tails at ‘The Sty’ Oddities Emporium for 4 Oincs. Renewable cat tails create a strange economy!
- Rat Tail Hairstyle. Want a rat tail hairstyle? Grow back hair, braid or ponytail it. Fashion advice in a gaming article? Why not!
- Crucible Tail. Get the Crucible Tail Aspect in Elden Ring. Defeat the Crucible Knight in Stormhill Evergaol. Evergaols hide something nasty.
- Tideripper Tail Fin. Tideripper Tail Fins in Horizon Forbidden West come from detaching them before destruction. Targeted removal for loot!
Bonus Genshin Tidbits: Voiceovers, Towns, and Swords
More Genshin-related nuggets for completionists:
- Japanese Voice Over. Want Japanese Genshin voiceovers? Go to Settings -> Language -> Voice-Over Language -> Japanese. Language settings offer many options.
- Ritout Escape Plan. Stuck in Ritou? Speak to the Kanjou Commissioner’s Office, then Shinsuke, then Ms. Hiiragi Chisato. Follow Chisato’s plan to escape. Bureaucracy and sneaky exits create classic adventure game tropes!
- Chasca Weaponry. Need a weapon for Chasca? CRIT DMG bows serve you well! Recommended: Astral Vulture’s Crimson Plumage, The First Great Magic, Aqua Simulacra, and more. Weapon recommendations are helpful for min-maxers.
- Genshin in Japan. Genshin’s Japanese name is 原神 (Genshin). It means “Original God.” Fun fact for language nerds!
The elusive “Shiki Taishou pet” remains unfound, but this deep dive into Genshin pets, characters, items, and random pet info from other games should be an adventure. Keep exploring Teyvat (and beyond!). Who knows what pets and treasures you’ll find!
