The Petpet Laboratory

This article is now complete it was last updated Sunday 23rd Oct 2005 2.28pm.(EST)

[ Petpet Laboratory ]

Welcome critters, to my Q and A of the petpet laboratory!

The petpet laboratory (Also known as petpet lab ray) Is a petpet version of the original Lab Ray.
Here you can zap your poor defenseless petpets, in hoping it could turn into something spectacular.
Here is what can happen:
It can gain and loose levels.
It’s name can be changed to something like Kadoatie-Wannabe( for a list of names it can get check the Q and A below)
It can turn into a pile of soot.
Change its species and color.
Disappear forever.
Change it’s species to a lab only species.
Or do nothing at all


Pile of Soot

After your first zap some things will come in place like:
From now on if you remove the petpet, no matter what species or color it is, it will revert back to what it was before you zapped it.
When you look at the petpet it will tell you that it has been zapped.
That petpet will not be allowed to enter the PPL

Unless your petpet disappears, you are always allowed to continue zapping it. Even if it turns into a pile of soot you can still zap it.
Now hold one critters, now you need to know how to get acess to the petpet lab ray.





To get access to the petpet lab ray you need to have access to the Lab ray. To get access to the lab ray you need to collect all 9 pieces of the Secret Laboratory Map. Then you visit the Treasure Map Page and it will give you access to the lab ray.
Once you have the lab ray you can now spend more of your Neopoints on Petpet Laboratory Map pieces, all nine of them. Then visit the Treasure Map Page again, and you’ll have access to the Petpet Lab Ray, Horray .


Visiting the Petpet Lab.
So you've gotten access to the lab ray, then you collected all 9 pieces for the petpet lab ray. Horray. Now it is time to pick a poor defenceless petpet to zap
I'm sure your SDB is loaded with cheap petpets you had from before, you you may have won from something such as the advent calender. Anyway if you dont have a cheap petpet just buy one, the reason why they are called cheap petpets is because they are cheap .
I shouldn’t have to explain, just use a cheap petpet, because theres always going to be a chance your petpet will disappear.

Okay well, you have your cheap petpet, now attach it to one of your neopets. I really have no advice on what type of neopet to attach it with. So just pick one. If one of your neopets is emotionally attached to anything that is near it, I wouldn’t recommend giving it to them, because that petpet is going to change a lot
You have your petpet, it's attached to the neopet now what?

Now we enter the scary petpet lab. When you enter you'll see a very very scary kookith. That kookith belongs to the mad scientist that zaps the Lab Ray.
Anyway you'll come to a screen where you get to pick what poor petpet you would like to zap, and like the normal lab, the petpets would make sounds. Some are quite funny xD
Anyway when you zap it, you'll come to a screen where they show you what happened to your petpet. Then you can come back tomorrow and zap it again, if it's still alive
Some screenies:
[ Hmm which poor petpet to zap today? ]
[ Yay a pile of soot ^^ ]
[ Revisiting the Petpet Lab ]

Q and A.
Q. Why is petpet lab ray so cheap?
A. Simply because it is a non-profit, if you remove the petpet it returns to what it was before. Really the only handy thing it does is upgrade your petpets level, which is useless unless you do the battledome

Q. If it renames the petpet, are you able to change it back?
A. Yes you can change it back Just visit your Quick Ref Page and click on the zapped petpet

Q. Can you paint the petpet after it’s been zapped?
Nope, you cannot, which is fair. If you want to paint it you’re going to have to detach it. It will revert back to it’s original form but still you can paint it again

Q. Hey my zapped petpet didnt win the PPL when it should of.. Why?
A. You were warned on the petpet page that this would happen. You cannot enter the PPL if your petpet is zapped.

Q. How many times a day can you zap?
A. Once a day if you try going again you get this:
[ What Happens If You Revisit The Lab ]

Q. What sort of names can you your petpet be changed to?
A. Here is a list of names, if you have any not on this list PLEASE pm me and ill add it to the list, i will even credit you!

Snarkie

Q. Can you earn petpet Avatars from zapped pets?
A. Apparently you can. I personally havent tested this.

Q. If your petpet becomes a krawk can you turn it into a neopet one?

Even if you can, you might want to think twice about doing so. If your petpet goes missing then so does the petpetpet.

Yay for the FAQ, Monkeys_Dog. You've done a nice job. (I was hoping someone would make one soon. ;) )

Hi, I just thought I would let you know I got the Huggy avatar from the lab ray after my aged Abominable Snowball was zapped into one. The poor Huggy that I had attached to my other pet for the avatar was a little sad he missed his chance. Oh well.

You can't chose.
The results are random.

Nope, not at all. Whatever happens to your petpet is completely random, just like the normal Neopet lab ray.

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

http://www.neopets.com/petpetlab.phtml
That is where it is. Like the Lab Ray, there is no easy way to get there, you have to either play the treasure hunting game, and follow the links from there, or do what everyone else does and bookmark the page for easy acess.

A reminder that you need all 9 pieces of the map to have acess to the petpet lab, if not you'll get an error saying you don't have acess to the page. I actually need a screenshot of that error, if anyone is insanely bored, could you please take a screenshot of what happens for me? Don't bother if you are not bored, because I can easily do this myself, on my next saturday arvo.

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

great article however it wasn't able to help me out. so i thought i would add it here in case anyone else ran across the same problem. the petpets need to be named in order to be able to select them to be zapped. most of my petpets are for avatars only so i never bother to name them so, i had a tough time trying to figure out how to choose one to zap. hope this helps.

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

I could have sworn I put that in here, thanks for pointing that out i'll add that on the next edit! I'll even put your name in the thank you list.

As i think you already figured out, the petpets need a name because one of the things that the ray does is change your pet's name, and the way TNT programed it makes it impossible to do this without a name. They should have made it that if your petpet didnt have a name, it would automatically give it a name on its first zap.

Remember folks if you spot a mistake, or you need some help on anything related to the petpet lab, don't hesitate to PM me here or neomail me on neopets(user:monkeys_dog).

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

hey, a friend of mine said that when your petpets get zapped, they go back to normal when you go to sell or trade them.
Does that really happen??? :/

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

Yes, as soon as you unattach them from your pet, they go back to their original form.

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

Yes. Whenever you remove the petpet from the pet, it reverts back to its un-zapped form. The point of this is to keep people from using the Petpet lab ray as a source of income.

Re: The Petpet Laboratory

I just zapped and got this:
Holy cow! Is that a special Petpet? It surely is. You're quite the lucky one.
Don't come back tomorrow... keep that Petpet for eternity! Or not.

It's a Fire Faerie Straw now. My petpet tuned into a food item.
