Nazjatar is a new zone currently available for testing on the Rise of Azshara 8.2 PTR. Nazjatar is one of two new zones, the other being Mechagon. Today we'll be previewing the battle pets of Nazjatar. You can find the preview for Mechagon battle pets
here
. Nazjatar is the kingdom of Azshara, and has been raised from the ocean. The zone was previously underwater, and the waves surround the entire zone like a massive wall. Nazjatar can be unlocked after a short introductory quest, and can later be reached via portal in Boralus or Dazar'alor. Nazjatar contains a tonne of new content, including new rares, a raid, battle pets, quests and world quests. Please note as this is PTR, models or how you obtain the following pets could change. Also, as Nazjatar is not entirely finished, a lot of these pets cannot be found on PTR yet.
Nazjatar
Quests
Two pets are obtained from quests. These quests are not yet in our database, and may not be on PTR yet.

Slimy Pets
There are a new group of pets available with the same listed source. These 'slimy' pets all have the same source - the 'Slimy Cocoon'. Apart from all sharing the same source, these pets share a similar model theme. This currently does not show up properly on the Wowhead model viewer. Every pet has an almost invisible appearance. It is not yet known how to obtain these pets, however the Slimy Cocoon is marked as a treasure.

Slimy Fangtooth
Slimy Hermit Crab

Rare Drops
A lot of the new Nazjatar pets drop from rares. These rares are not an instant respawns, and reward loot only once per day. Slaying all of these rares will reward you with the achievement

, which is part of
Undersea Usurper
. These pets are not a guaranteed drop.

Wild Pets

The Eternal Palace (Raid)
Several pets are currently obtained from the new raid in this patch, The Eternal Palace. The raid is focused around defeating Queen Azshara and her forces. You can read more about the features and theme of this upcoming raid
here
. Note that this raid, and thus these pets, will not be available immediately upon the 8.2 patch release, as the raid is usually delayed until a few weeks after the patch.
Boss Drops
These pets drop directly from bosses within the raid. They are likely not a guaranteed drop. Currently, all of these pets drop on all difficulties. There is no Mythic only difficulty pet, unlike last patch.

Wild Pets
Three pets are currently listed as being wild caught in The Eternal Palace. Pets spawning in instances hasn't really been done in the past, with the exception of the
Dream Whelpling
from The Emerald Nightmare. However, in this patch, it seems that some pets will be available to be caught within The Eternal Palace, and also the new dungeon, Mechagon. You cannot cage these pets.

The Nautical Nuisances of Nazjatar and World Quests
There are twelve Legendary pets you can battle on Nazjatar. Defeating all pets will earn you the achievement
Nautical Nuisances of Nazjatar
. An upcoming guide will cover strategies for these pets.
Notably, on the first defeat of each pet, you obtain an item, allowing you to hand in for 250
Waveblade Ankoan
/
The Unshackled
reputation. Each one of these pets gives a separate item. For example,
Prince Wiggletail
gives the
Wiggletail's Poking Fork
/
Wiggletail's Poking Fork
. These items will be useful to get ahead on earning
Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder, Part Two
.
Each pet also has a world quest tied to it, which requires you to defeat that specific pet. This world quest rewards reputation as well as either battle-training stones such as
Flying Battle-Training Stone
and
Marked Flawless Battle-Stone
, Azerite, or
Polished Pet Charm
.

I wish you could get the expanded pet library without having to be hardcore pet battler. I enjoy collecting, not so much the pokemon lite aspect.
You actually can with a lot of patience (or patience and alts). You can do mission table missions which occasionally reward pet charms, save up 1000-2000 charms (which are BoA so alts can help) and buy the collection extension(s). They are 1k charms each (and the 1st can also be obtained for ‘free’ from that Legion pet battle achievement which I assume you’re not interested in).
If it was possible to upvote I'd so do this for you, I really didn't know that, and while it will take time, I can handle that, even if it has to be a few expansions down the line.
