View Full Version : 3rd Wildcard versions?

The official details have been posted as to how to get all three versions (http://pinataisland.info/forum/showthread.php?p=248741&highlight=famous+pinata#post248741). Further instructions can be found at the wiki's wildcard article.

First wildcard is gotten from doing the minigame at max difficulty with all the hearts.

Second wildcard is doing that with two tier 1 wildcards.

Though I've done that with tier 2 wildcards and i just get tier 2 again, even twins and its still the same.

Any1 know the way for getting the final wildcard form?

i teached the tricks to 2 "2nd wildcard" custacean and i romanced them but i got another "2nd wildcard"..

is there a 3rd, or not? :confused:

EDIT: i'm sorry i only teached one trick to each :roll:

Yes, there's a third WC version. I've seen pics for all three Whirlm WC versions and all three Bispotti WC versions.

I don't think the strategy is completely known yet, as to how to get the third one. It's possible that collecting all the hearts only increases the chance, for the most difficult trait, but doesn't guarantee the third one.

Stay tuned, and someone will solve the mystery :)

Currently I am attempting to get the 3rd version for Limeoceros's by doing everything possible to make them more valuable. Different color variant, 2nd version wildcards,taught all tricks (learning one trick + being a wildcard made them superstars btw), is there anything else im missing? i Remember when i had a dragumfly and redhott in the same garden they constantly fought, and the redhott always won, eventually he became a bronze medal fighter. I wonder if there is a gold medal one and if that will aid at all. feel free to chip in with your own suggestions/experiences.

Edit: I just updated the wiki with info on how to attain said variants/tricks for those that are curious.

Has anyone tried romancing a 1st WC trait pinata with a 2nd WC trait pinata together yet? I've always been romancing 2 2nd trait WCs together for the third, and I can't really try this ATM.

Bastion6six6
09-06-2008, 09:08 PM
I thought about that as well Zap, ima try it now.

Edit: nope, both are level 2 wildcards still.

Super Edit: Just romanced the 2 super star rhinos, both dif color variants with both tricks learned yada yada, and guess what! they birthed 2 beautiful 2nd wildcard rhinos! :( MUST FIGURE THIS OUT!

To get the first wild card you need six regular pinatas of the same type in your garden.

Perhaps to get the third wild card you need six wild card pinatas of the same type in your garden? Has that been tried?

sleepyowl
09-06-2008, 10:22 PM
That's another interesting idea. I know everyone's trying to figure it out.

Bastion6six6
09-06-2008, 11:36 PM
You dont need 6 regular pinatas, you simply need 6 pinatas so it raises the difficulty, their quality or rarity adds nothing to the minigame itself besides the fact that they are contributing to the 6 pinatas needed to do it. I've made over a dozen level 2 wildcards from my limeoceros', still nothing, the garden has been full of level 2's all night.

Bastion6six6
09-07-2008, 12:24 PM
Tried everything i can think of, perhaps the 3rd wildcard variant is like it was in the first game, completely random? If so it will be hugely disappointing.

SuperBlender
09-07-2008, 03:32 PM
I tried everything I could think of too, including finding all variants and even got to 5th on the leaderboard for the minigame time. :) I thought it might have something to do with that, but now I don't think so. You know, maybe if the final wildcard is totally random, that will sooth the people who are upset that the first two are so easy to get. Then we'll still have a chance wildcard that involves hours and hours of hard work, and the person who manages to get it can be recognized for it and distribute it through vision cards.

meh, spending an uncountable amount of hours for a single wildcard that could be gotten by some lucky guy in 5 minutes=fail I wouldn't say so. Wouldn't it be nice if you were the first one to find a Wild Card v.3 ______? I know it was pretty annoying in the last game, but that is what made it so hard to put down after you completed it. (I had up to 3000 and something badgecicles)

Doesn't the Wiki say something about getting all of the coins?

Bastion6six6
09-07-2008, 04:33 PM
the wiki's wildcard info in TIP is debunked, those were done before the final product was made public, thats an old archetype. And i dont want the 3rd wildcard so i can feel like i accomplished somethings, i want it for a cool looking pinata. Nothing more, if i wanted to achieve something id go to work, not kill myself trying to get this.

I am beginning to think that it is random, but not as random as before if someone already got a V3...

Bastion6six6
09-07-2008, 04:45 PM
if it is random then it is possible its better chances, maybe like 1/50 or sumtin, or it could still be 1/40000 or w.e the first game was and sum1 just coulda gotten lucky. we wont know until either sum1 finds a sure way to produce them or RARE confirms that its random.

Well, I tried a few things to see if I could get a Version 3 Wildcard Sweetle.

I sent both version 2 Sweetles to parties, taught them both their tricks, and made sure their Candiosity meter was filled. However, all of their children were version 2.

I also tried breeding version 1 and 2 wildcards together, but no luck either.

No, it still has to be when the hearts are flashing. You still have to have at least six in the garden, and get all of the hearts.

Where does it say how you got them, all you've posted is the pictures.

Grey Jinjo
09-07-2008, 07:25 PM
I can say how I got mine, although it isn't an actual method.

I was playing co-op with a friend on Live. We made a garden full of nothing but Whirlms. We have about forty now. I started looking at them and they just... showed up. Not sure what the actual method was for getting them.

dustinmroberts
09-07-2008, 07:26 PM
I thought I made a seperate thread with how, but I guess it didn't post.

I had a 1st wildcard version and a 2nd wildcard version. They were the only two in the garden to start with. Both of them were variented, and they both knew both of their tricks. I made sure they were full candiocity, and then I romanced them. I kept romancing the two of them, until I got to the master romancer one. I finished the maze with all the hearts and got a twin bonus, as well as the wildcard bonus. When the egg hatched, it was twin 3rd wildcard versions. Then I tried it again with the 1st and 2nd wildcard versions, and out came twin 3rd wildcard versions again. Then I tried two of the 3rd wildcard versions at max candiocity, and they produced twin 3rd wildcard versions.

I'm not sure if this method works for other pinatas, but it seemed to work for the whirlms. Also, I'm not sure if the 1st and 2nd ones being variented had anything to do with it or not.

When I got my third wild card Whirlm they were all regular (no variants). Like I said, we weren't actually going for it so I don't even know when they first started showing up. They may have been at maximum candiosity from breeding. No idea.

EDIT: Third looks like the statue of liberty.

i have a theory and have tested it pretty extensively, i can only make 2 varients of the whirm wc my daughter can make 2 but her 1 is different than mine, now i try to breed the ones she can make and i can't make them even from her pair, but when someone comes into my garden depending on the person they can make from my whirlms the 3rd varient.

my theory is that each of us can only make ourselves 2 of the 3 for us to get the 3rd we either need to get it from trade or from inviting friends and hoping the one we can't get is the one they can.

Backed up. She has helped me. I couldn't get the V3 of the rhino she came in and the 1st romance she did (took an hours :p) it popped out V3. The same thing happened with me with bunnycombs. I got 1st and 2nd but couldn't get 3rd one my my freinds (blazin) comes in. He gets it the FIRST romance. So this is her theory and i'm going to back it up. Come on BIGsheep :p. Please more info?

My question is this. Once you have the 3rd version if you breed it will you get more third or will they still come out 2nd's on your Xbox?

Bjorn
09-08-2008, 06:59 PM
Could amount of offspring be the key? I am going to try this method:
I plan on collecting all the hearts in each run through the minigame. I will breed two Whirlms keeping the same breeding pair until I have two wc. I will use those two wc as a breeding pair to get the tier 2 wc's. I will then use the tier 2 wc's as a breeding pair to get the tier 3 (hopefully).

Bastion6six6
09-08-2008, 07:16 PM
tried it, dont work, so far the most believable method I have heard is the "can only be done by another player in your garden" or something, tho i have yet to test it.

Bjorn
09-08-2008, 07:22 PM
Have you tried selling all but the current breeding pair so you have to make a full run at it again? Maybe you need x total hearts collected per breeding pair combo? I am just trying to pull as many ideas out of the ether as I can. I will definitely try the co-op breeding theory first chance I get. Do you think it will matter who starts the process? Should the host feed them candy and direct them, or should a guest feed and direct them?

no you can't breed it yourself even with a pair they made for you, myself and dragonacer couldn't make the 3rd bunnycomb the one with antlers so a 3rd person joined us and was successful, then dragonacher and myself tried to breed the pair of wcs with the antlers and neither one of us could come out with that type of wc

Ok I confirm that you have to do it via xbox live (and no you can't make an empty xbox live game and do it yourself), I had to ask some nublet to do the 3rd (TOOK HIM OVER AN HOUR!)

I did all three WC of Elp to test... pictures below...

Tried everything i can think of, perhaps the 3rd wildcard variant is like it was in the first game, completely random? If so it will be hugely disappointing.

i totally disagree. if the 3rd WC is like VP:C WC.. then we got another 2 years play this game.

There's something quirky about the garden you're in, too. Zap stopped by to try with the Geckie, and only got 2 different traits. I sent the Geckies to Zap's garden and romanced them there, and we got all 3 traits.

I also had Zap and Newtgat in my garden, and we couldn't get the Bunnycomb with antlers.

no because when it comes to bunnycombs me and draganacher make the same 2 wc but when it comes to limeocaurus and something else i could do his 3rd but don't matter i am just trying to help here and not argue i know how to do it on mine and all that really matters is that i can get all 3 with my friends help

but the part about the 2nd gamertag, it does work it just isn't always the 2nd tag that works it could be the 3rd or 4th because everyone is not different 1/2 can do the one set of 2 and the other 1/2 can do the 2nd but not of the same species as i said me and dragonacher are the same 2 of bunnycomb but different 2 of limeocaurus

Ayla,

Thanks for all the great information. It makes sense now the way you laid it all out. I guess it's time to start figuring out who has what so we can all help each other get the WC's they don't have.

I do have question though have you tried shipping a 3rd varient WC egg to someone else? It seems as though the eggs are precoded for WC or not and what level. I say this because if you make Twingersnaps from a WC Syrupent egg it gives you WC Twingersnaps and it hold true to if it is 1 or 2 varient. For example I have 2 versions of WC Twingersnaps and have yet to breed any Twingersnaps at all.

I tried last night to also get the antlered bunnycombs but none such luck. I was also trying with preztails at the same time but it didn't happen then either.

I'm going to try inviting my friend over to see if them playing with me will change anything, then if not I'll go get a month of Gold (I'm only a silver account atm) and try some online stuff. :D

I don't know why, I just really want a bunny with antlers. Worpletinger for the win!

I think I have the third version of pengum. I bred a WC Pengum i got over xbox live with one of my own, and instead of havin three yellow feathers coming off of each wing, it has this HUGE head crest in a circle shape instead of the three long feathers coming off its head. Is this the third version WC? (I dont know how to post pictures. Could someone tell me how?)

FeralKitty
09-09-2008, 06:00 PM
Yep, that's the third version. It's kind of like a mohawk.

The best way to do pics is right in-game with the camera tool. You can upload screenshots or PV cards (better) to VivaPinata.com.

Make sure to visit My Page at Viva Pinata.com after uploading a screenshot, to submit it to the Gallery, so it can be linked from that site. (Alternately, you can download the screenshot, and upload it elsewhere to a photo hosting site.)

Then you can use the Image icon in the forum's post toolbar, to add the image (URL) to your post.

Hey guys,

I've seen a LOT of threads been asking about why they can't get the 3rd or 2nd variant of a certain pinata. The truth is you can only get 2 of the 3WildCard variants. Why you may ask. Because it encourages trading, co-op, and using the Post Office. I don't know what really to say more. So I will let BIGsheep reply to this thread about the why and how stuff.

i hope this is something that is still able to be accomplished without needing to work with someone over xbox live. since A) i don't have a gold account, B) i like to be a solitary player. i don't like games that require you to have to work with other people... hence why i'm not a big halo or gears of war fan. me no like multiplayer.

if i can still do it with someone in my own house, then i guess i'll deal with that.

So I was just sent a WC 1 and WC 2 and i tried romancing them together, no luck.

I tried romancing THEIR WC 1 with MY WC 2, no luck

I tried romancing MY WC1 with THEIR WC 2, no luck


I tried romancing MY WC 2 with THEIR WC 2, no luck

I tried romancing MY WC 1 with THEIR WC 1, no luck


any other suggestions? lmao


also i can't seem to get WC3 even by joining somebody elses game like a last posted... perhaps it was a fluke? Obviously there is something small we are overlooking

Honestly, why not just tell people the full details, instead of teasing them?

From what I've been told by dragonacher, you need to trade pinatas to get the third WC in a romance. If someone sends you a species, you should be able to get the final trait by romancing that one.

The idea behind this is to foster co-op, trading, and PV card use.

I know I had a friend over in Co-op yesterday, and we could only get two traits. We got the third trait by sending the pinatas to his garden, and romancing them there. So, this information seems to be accurate.

I'm sure BIGsheep will comment once he's in the office. In the meantime, give this method a shot.

dragonacher
09-09-2008, 09:50 PM
Yep, even if you can't hatch trait 3 and you get two trait 3s you still can't get the third trait.

Btw. Why was this merged :(

FeralKitty

Yep, even if you can't hatch trait 3 and you get two trait 3s you still can't get the third trait.

Hmm... I thought you had an answer, but someone is saying it doesn't work.

Now you're just confusing things by saying you can't hatch trait 3, even if people send you trait 3 WCs.

Why don't you plainly explain what you think works, so people can try it out for themselves, because even I'm confused now by your differing comments.

Hey guys, I just got my first V3 Wildcard and thought I would contribute with my experience.

First, I bred a V1 Bispotti in my first garden. Then, me and my boyfriend bred a V2 Bispotti his garden using 2-player couch mode, (which was on a different Profile on the same Xbox).

He sent me the V2 Bispotti via crate which I unpacked into my first garden.

I then packed up all the Bispottis and moved them to a new garden, (due to space). I then bred my V1 Bispotti with his V2 and they hatched Twin V3 Bispottis. I was playing single player at this time.

Here is a picture of the V3 and V1 Bispottis. (http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j230/Klinny/0f755d53-b6c8-4925-945d-1a9e57e9c60.jpg)
Here is a picture with all three versions. (http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j230/Klinny/07156725-f567-46ae-b2ef-2d45ddb5f84.jpg)

So it seems that it is indeed possible to get V3 Wildcards without inviting another player to your Garden via Xbox Live. It would seem, however, that trading or multiplayer is still required in some way.

You can only get two of the traits. Notice how you're not getting the second one? This is where co-op/traiding comes in.

By the way, before linking to pics at VP.com, you have to go to My Page, and submit the pics into the Gallery. Otherwise, the links won't work for anyone else.

Salamango
09-09-2008, 11:42 PM
I've gotten all three traits... The shield, the double horn, and that one. Maybe I should have pointed that out? I got twins of tier 2, and made one my money pinata, it's my highest valued pinata.

I could probibly take pics of Tags, if you wanted.

Edit: Also, will I have to reenter the URL, now that I've put them into the gallery?

Edit2: I think that me getting all three types of WC in the same garden can be linked to the fact that I got tier 2 with the normal Limes, where as these were dessert desert variants, similar to how the two types are seperating in the count for the minigame. In anycase, I wouldn't want to be Prof. Pester when something with a horn like that comes charging at me.

Here is what I have seen in my own garden. I was able to breed ver1 and ver2 wildcard Whirlms. I had about 10 of them in my garden. A friend joined my garden, when he successfully bred two of my ver2 WC whirlm's he got ver3 as offspring. Once he did that I could breed ver3 offspring. However once he left my garden I was back to breeding ver2, even with the ver3's in my garden.

this is very different that what i was experiencing.... i would breed ver1 and ver2, then when somebody else would join, we would just make more ver2....

the first time i bred ver3, it was exactly how you said Bjorn... but lately i can't duplicate it.... =(

It sounds like you got 2 of the 3 traits for the normal ones, and 2 of the 3 traits for the desert one, but you're probably going to need help getting the missing trait for either one.

I just bred 3 pairs of 3rd generation tigermisu twins (6 total).

To sum things up in general, the game seems to let people get trait 1, and either trait 2 or trait 3, on their own. Getting the missing trait apparently requires trading or Pinata Vision.

Did you happen to also get trait 2, since the "3rd" version is the subject of this thread? :)

DragonacherFirstly, congrats to Dragonacher and Ayla for being the first people to figure this out. I know a lot of theories have been floating around in even just the short time this game has been out, but they've nailed it.

You can only get two of the three Wildcard variants for each species. Everyone can get the base (i.e. VP:C version) and one extra.

To get the other you will need to find someone who can provide you with one, either by joining their garden and breeding over co-op or hunting down someone to trade with, if you're a little more solitary.

Anyway, good work you two. Consider my forelock tipped in admiration.

Salamango
09-10-2008, 07:20 AM
Always nice to see an encouraging post like that from Mr. BIGsheep. Really lets us know that RARE cares about its gamers.

Anyway, like FeralKitty said, you might have a shot at the missing tier WC via variants from either of the trapping areas.

I think trading has something to do with it, as BIGsheep mentioned. A friend and I could only get Geckie 1 and 1, until we sent them to his garden, then we got 1, 2, and 3.

I can get the pointy-tail and the 6-ears, but not the antlers, even in co-op. Why don't you send me an antlers one, and I'll send you a 6-ears one, and we'll see if those trades let us each get our missing trait one?

Didn't really work for me, even though I kinda cheated when I tried. I shipped several WC1 and WC2 Pretztails to my brother's account, and went onto his xbox and bred them. every combination later, the only result was WC2s.

When you bred the V1 and V2 Wildcards together on your brother's account, were the romancing pinatas both originally from your game?

I was just curious, as when I bred my Bispottis I bred one of my own with one from my boyfriend's game, so I think that the breeding pair might need to be from separate player's gardens.

Here we go, this was the ultimate test.
I have two xbox's one i use, and one my girlfriend uses.
We have 2 live accounts, and two copies of the game.

We both started a new garden at the same time and bred worms.

Master romanced worms until first twin wildcards, romanced them and got our wildcards.

I got the ones with the bunny ears, she got the ones with the frilly necks.
So you can only have two different types of wildcards from breeding. You get your #1 wc, and your #2 wc. But depending on the person, you may get wc #2A or #2B. So you would have to trade, or get someone else to romance them in your garden (if that works) to get all 3 in one garden.

So after trading, heres a picture!

Ugh, it seems I made a rather silly mistake. When I was breeding my Bispottis, I was in such a rush that I completely forgot that I had never bred a V2 Wildcard in my own garden. When I got home, I tried it and sure enough I obtained the "V3" Bispotti that I had thought I'd gotten through trading and breeding.

So, it seems that trading the Bispotti had nothing to do with my ability to get all three versions. The one my boyfriend sent me was just the Wildcard that I was unable to obtain myself.

So I'm very sorry everyone; I really should have tested thoroughly before posting.

PATTY0622
09-12-2008, 06:43 AM
Basically you can only ever get 2 wildcards. The base one and a secondary one. To get the third you'll either have to co-op or trade with someone who can get a different secondary one from yourself.

Cheers !!

Send The Second Generation Wildcard To others people gardens and let the person who has the garden breed your pinatas.

Is Better If you try to breed normal pinatas and get 1st twin/ wild card bouns then breed those twins wildcard bonus and get the second generation then go to somebodyelses garden and released your 2nd generation pinatas to his garden and let HIM breed your pinatas and you (well he) will get the 3rd Generation.

i believe if you box up two second tier wildcards from one account, then mail it to your other account, you can use those to make a third tier, then mail it back to the original. a little crazy, but will avoid going online.

I was wondering how I can get the 3rd level WC Pinatas. I breed the level 2 Pinata's online (with my friend) and all that hatch are the level 2 WC Pinatas.

We are both collecting all the hearts and are doing it quick enough to get WC Twins.

Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

09-17-2008, 12:18 PM
You can only hatch two of the three traits, and won't be able to romance them on your own. Sounds like your friend can only hatch the same two traits as you. Find someone who is able to hatch the other trait, and invite them. You could trade your trait 2s for their trait 3s, since they can't hatch the trait you can.

If you don't know the answer, don't post. If you know the answer, post it.

No, you can only make two traits, and even if someone sends you the third trait, you can't romance them to get the third trait, yourself.

This is intentional. You have to trade, scan, or find someone who can romance that trait for you.

As for the 2A/2B convention that someone made up, it's not how the wiki, game, or devs treat it. There are three traits. Some gamers will always get trait 1 and trait 3 for a species. Others will always get trait 1 and trait 2 for that species.

FeralKitty

For the zillionth time, you can only hatch 2 of the 3 traits for a particular species. You can't get the third on your own by romancing. You have to trade, scan a PV card, or use co-op with a gardener who can hatch the trait that you can't.

Is there any specific way to tell which one is the 2nd tier and which one is the 3rd tier when each one of us can only breed 2? I always think the wildcard I get from breeding the 1st tier is the 2nd tier, but sometimes the wiki says the wildcard is the 3rd tier. It is kind of confusing.

Zap657
09-28-2008, 04:58 AM
There really isn't a definition between "tier 2" and "tier 3". It would be more accurate to say "Tier 2a" and "Tier 2b" (and even then we wouldn't be able to decide which trait is which), the only reason it says different on the wiki is because the first person who edits in the trait descriptions/images uses his/her tier 2 as the "official" tier 2. Whereas the second person who edits in their tier 2 WC (with a different trait) uses the unoccupied tier 3 slot.

The fact that the wiki uses tier 3 is because we simply didn't know how these things were going to work. Saying "3rd gen" really just confuses things, in my opinion - 2A and 2B make more sense - but its a little easier to just say 2 or 3.

I can make the first and second wildcard types for all pinatas I have tried. However I am unsure how you make the 3rd types (although I have managed it by accident a couple of times),

Are the third types random or is their a way to guerentee it, like with nos 1 & 2?

Zap657
10-12-2008, 03:24 PM
Everyone can get the first WC, but the second and third get a little more complicated. It'd be more accurate to call them WC trait 2a and 2b. Everyone can get one of the two on their own, but to get the other you have to trade with someone who can get one for you, or scan a PV card.

10-12-2008, 07:16 PM
in another forum, where a member reports how he got all three WC Fourheads by himself, Feral Kitty writes: "You can only get two of the traits (on your own) by romancing, so if you had tried to get all three that way, it wouldn't have been possible.

Since you used both evolving and romancing, you were able to get one that you couldn't have romanced, by yourself"

BarkBark has 3 WC versions: #1: Curled Tail ALL PLAYERS CAN GET THIS NO MATTER WHAT!!! #2: Oversized Nose and #3: Big Ears (Info taken from wiki)
Player 1 can only get WC BarkBarks 1 and 2 alone.
Player 2 can only get WC BarkBarks 1 and 3 alone.
In order for player one to get WC version 3, Player 2 must give him one, or breed them for him.
In order for player two to get WC version 2, player 1 must give him one or breed them for him.
IF PLAYER ONE BREEDS TWO WC'S HE WILL GET TRAIT 2, EVEN IF THE TWO WC'S HE BREEDS ARE TRAIT 3, AND VICE VERSA.

Did you check out the wiki's wildcard article (or search the forum)?

You romance two of the first-trait WCs, to get one of remaining two traits. To get the final trait requires help from (or trading with) another player who can produce that trait.

That's an odd occurance. I've never heard of that happening before. Here is two suggestions. Try either saving & quitting, then turn off your console. Reload the garden. If that doesn't work pack up whirlms & their home & start a new garden. When my game is acting funny, one of the two usually fixes it.

The number of Whirlms can exceed thirty, I just think you were having some bad luck, sometimes pinatas won't do what you want them to, like how the Choclodocus will sometimes stop making pinatas happy after a while. I would suggest maxing the candosity of two different Whilrms and trying with them...

Are you asking someone who can hatch the third wildcard trait on their own?

If you both can only hatch traits one and two, being on Live won't let one of you hatch a different trait than you normally can.

I just found out you don't need another person to join your garden to get the 3erd variant of a wild card (only if you want twins). but just for the WC a camera lets you scan all 3 in from the wiki.

The wiki's wildcard article has mentioned that detail for a long time.

How to get the wildcard variant of the {2nd} and {3rd} versions. For example, I have the one with the Antlers on the Bunnycomb, but my friend has the one with the extra ears. So, It really comes down to each player only has one of the {2nd} and {3rd} version wildcards and you need to use Pinata Vision or trade someone for the version wildcard you DON'T have.:)

Nope, not true in any way. If you want the straight scoop, you should search the wiki.

The wildcard article (and many forum posts) has details on how to obtain the third one.
