How to Get Rematch Skin in Fortnite Free (June 2026) Ultimate Guide
Fortnite just dropped a brand-new collab with Rematch, the fast-paced 5v5 football game by Sloclap — and it brings the…
If you want to know which pets are actually worth your Sheckles in Grow a Garden 2, you’re in the right place. GAG 2 features 12 purchasable pets, each with unique passive abilities covering everything from automatic stealing and mutation boosts to base defense and faster crop growth. I’ve ranked all of them below, from the must-haves to the ones you can safely skip.
The best pets in Grow a Garden 2 are Raccoon, Black Dragon, Ice Serpent, and Unicorn (S Tier). For the early-to-mid game, go with Bee, Golden Dragonfly, Deer, and Bunny (A Tier).
| Tier | Pets |
|---|---|
| S Tier | Raccoon, Black Dragon, Ice Serpent, Unicorn |
| A Tier | Bee, Golden Dragonfly, Deer, Bunny |
| B Tier | Frog |
| C Tier | Robin, Owl, Monkey |
Unlike the original GAG, pets in Grow a Garden 2 are purchased directly with Sheckles when they spawn in the lobby — no egg hatching involved. You start with 3 pet slots, expandable to 5. Rankings below are based on long-term value, income impact, and defensive power.
These pets directly affect the two core systems in GAG 2: profit generation and base defense. Prioritize these when your wallet allows.
| Pet | Ability | Price (Sheckles) | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raccoon | Steals fruits from empty gardens at night; raises steal limit by +25 | 5M | Super |
| Black Dragon | Sets intruders on fire when they try to steal from your plot | 1M | Super |
| Ice Serpent | Freezes thieves in place, slowing their escape | 20M | Super |
| Unicorn | Doubles the chance of Rainbow mutation on your crops | 4M | Mythic |
Raccoon is the most unique — it generates passive income overnight by automatically stealing without you lifting a finger. Unicorn pays off constantly, since Rainbow is among the highest-value crop mutations. Black Dragon and Ice Serpent are the two best defensive options: Dragon is cheaper and aggressive, Serpent is the ultimate late-game guardian.
These pets won’t redefine your game, but they’re excellent value and stay relevant throughout most of your playthrough.
| Pet | Ability | Price (Sheckles) | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bee | Patrols your garden and stings any player trying to steal fruit | 1M | Legendary |
| Golden Dragonfly | Increases Gold mutation chance on your crops | 3M | Mythic |
| Deer | Boosts plant growth rate by ~10% | 50K | Rare |
| Bunny | Increases movement speed (effect stacks with multiple Bunnies) | 20K | Common |
Deer is criminally underrated — 10% faster growth compounding over hours creates real income gains. Bunny’s speed stacking is a sleeper pick for stealing setups. Bee is your best affordable defender before you can afford Ice Serpent.
| Pet | Ability | Price (Sheckles) | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Frog | Increases jump height by +5 | 10K | Common |
Frog helps with navigation early on when climbing tall plants is awkward. Once you’ve upgraded your setup, this slot is better spent elsewhere.
| Pet | Ability | Price (Sheckles) | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Robin | Eats ripe fruit and occasionally drops a seed | 75K | Legendary |
| Owl | Extends night vision; alerts you when a rare pet spawns | 25K | Uncommon |
| Monkey | Automatically delivers ripe fruit to you | 1M | Mythic |
Robin’s seed drops are inconsistent. Owl’s utility is minimal after the early hours. Monkey’s convenience doesn’t justify the 1M price or the slot it occupies — that Sheckles budget is better spent on Bee or Black Dragon.
Budget Starter (Early Game): Bunny + Deer + Bee — movement, growth speed, and basic defense covered cheaply.
Profit Maximizer: Unicorn + Golden Dragonfly + Deer — stack mutation chances and faster harvests for maximum Sheckle income.
Fortress Setup: Ice Serpent + Black Dragon + Bee — triple-layer defense that makes your plot almost untouchable on public servers.
Steal Squad: Raccoon + Bunny + Bunny + Bee + Deer — max mobility, passive theft, and light defense for active stealers.
Raccoon is arguably the best overall pet — it steals automatically at night and increases your steal capacity. Unicorn is the best for farming value via Rainbow mutations.
Pets spawn around the lobby. Walk up to one and pay its Sheckle price to claim it. If another player outbids you, the pet changes direction and follows them instead.
Yes. You start with 3 pet slots. Expand to 4 slots for 200K Sheckles, and to 5 slots for 1 Million Sheckles.
No — Monkey costs 1M Sheckles but only delivers ripe fruit to you automatically. That same budget is far better spent on Bee (defense) or Black Dragon (aggressive protection).
Yes! Equipping multiple Bunny pets stacks their movement speed bonuses, making it especially powerful for players who actively steal from other gardens.
