Coming Soon: HAWAII!


It's coming, it's coming! FINALLY, we're going to get the Hawaii travel locations that PIGG has! Get ready for beaches and new summer clothing and furniture items. I can't wait! A birdie told me that when you buy a swimsuit, you'll automatically get an innertube to float in the ocean. Here's a sneak peak from Catmid, as captured from PIGG:



Also, there's a new Premium Gacha in NYC Downtown. Costs 50 Ameba Gold to play (no tokens), but you can get really cute professional uniforms like this police officer outfit. My first 2 tries I got my police outfit!

Kame-chan

This is Nyanko-san with BREAKING NEWS!

Please meet Kame-chan.

He's my adorable new pet turtle! When I was walking through the pet farm, we looked at each other and I instantly knew that we would be together forever. The undeniable cuteness was too much too bear, so I brought Kame-chan back with me. He's a very social turtle, loves to be picked up and petted. He's also a bit clumsy so please keep an eye on him in case he rolls on to his back.

Stop by and say hello sometime :D

Nyanko-san signing out!

PICOpets

Are you having trouble keeping your pet happy? I've gotten a couple e-mails so I wanted to make a quick post for now. If you have any more questions please ask them on the blog so other PICOfreaks can help you out!

Remember there are simple everyday things you need to do if you want them to stay in a good mood and to increase their relation to you.

What does relation mean? Well, since there is really no explanation, I can only assume the time you have spent with your pet per day. Every time you get a heart or /heart after they eat, you gain a relation. You may not see it, but it happens once a day if you meet all their needs as depicted below.

PICOpets

  1. Feeding them when they ask for it.  (ie when they make this action /hungry).
  2. Teaching them tricks. (ie using their paw buttons everyday in their pet profiles). **
  3. Taking them on walks. (ie. bringing them with you when you ring rooms, getting props, and just having fun in the PICOworld! **
** As a side note. There are times when I just visit and feed them and their relation increases.


    These are my pets right now with their PROFILE INFO:
    PICOpets
    Nono is a black cat.
    She is Social /Clever.
    Her mood currently is 4 notes.
    I've kept her successfully happy for 39 days.

    This means, I've been coming onto PICO feeding her, playing with her, and taking her on walks with me when I visit rooms and travel. I've also pushed all her paw buttons (pet, lift up, shake paw, sit, stand, wave) in order to get the /fun bubble from her. Today I have only 2 notes. This must mean I haven't done enough of something. Probably walking her and petting her. Your relation will still grow as long as you feed and visit everyday. You will also get the /heart bubble. You may not see it but you know you have gotten it if you have fed her and your relation number increases.

    Things that I have noticed. Her personality seems to be the most demanding since she is the oldest relation of the three. She is hungrier and during relation 17 it was harder to keep her happy/all 5 notes full.



    PICOpets
    Oreo is a black and white Panda.
    She is Friendly/Quiet.
    Her mood currently is 2 notes.
    I've kept her successfully happy for 26 days.

    This means, I've been coming onto PICO feeding her, playing with her, and taking her on walks with me when I visit rooms and travel. I've also pushed all her paw buttons (pet, lift up, shake paw, lie down, stretch) in order to get the /fun bubble from her. Today I have only 2 notes. This must mean I haven't done enough of something. Probably walking her and petting her. Your relation will still grow as long as you feed and visit everyday. You will also get the /heart bubble. You may not see it but you know you have gotten it if you have fed her and your relation number increases.

    One thing to note about Oreo is she loves to sleep. SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP! I always wonder where she is and when she sleeps on me she is the one that stays there the longest. @^_^@



    PICOpets
    Ichigo is a pink Boston Terrier with white markings.
    She is Friendly/Smart.
    Her mood currently is 5 notes.
    I've kept her successfully happy for 4 days.

    This means, I've been coming onto PICO feeding her, playing with her, and taking her on walks with me when I visit rooms and travel. I've also pushed all her paw buttons (pet, lift up, and shake paw) in order to get the /fun bubble from her. You will also get the /heart bubble. You may not see it but you know you have gotten it if you have fed her and your relation number increases.

    One thing to note about Ichigo is she is very very friendly! She is always asking to be picked up by me and anyone who is around! I wonder if her personality affects this behavior?



    PICOpets
    I hope this little insight helps! If you have any more questions please ask them on the blog so other PICOfreaks can benefit from the information! Thanks everyone and have fun PICOadventures!

    New pets!

    Did a quick 10-minute scan of the Pet Farms and we have new Boston Terriers and Turtles! Catmid has been waiting forEVER for them! (And consequently, even from her vacation, she snagged a cute, rare Terrier that is now bouncing around in her room.)

    In my travels, I found pink and blue Boston Terriers and a pink turtle. (WHY don't they have purple?!) Standard colors for the Terriers include a tan, gray and brown (or is it a dark red?); I saw turtles in the standard green, yellow, orange too. I didn't see any blue turtles this time around, but I'm sure they exist.

    Okay, all, happy pet hunting!! ^^

    Aurora-tan's Dino Hunt!

    Hi everyone! Aurora-tan is back! And this time I'm ready for an adventure of gigantic proportions!

    I was looking through my PICO Guide: Star Collection. That's the little blue book that guides to all fun events in PICO! You can find it on the upper right corner of your screen. While I was looking, I saw one star I didn't have! It was labeled "Meet the Dinosaur!" When I clicked on it, I saw a nifty hint.

    Tell me your secrets little snow-pico!

    I immediately took off to the Stone Age to check it out. When I got there, I couldn't help but notice the giant footprints everywhere. I followed them, running as fast as I could.

    Whose could they be?

    Oh no! I was too late!

    x_x

    Ha ha, did I scare you? No, this wasn't the dinosaur the guide mentioned. Still, I was very surprised to see it too.
    I looked around and noticed many shops. The most interesting one had a boogie-ing girl! I had to investigate.

    Hm, a shop way out here?

    Turns out, she sold actions! Actually only one action, Volcano Dance! This action proved to come in handy later. After I bought it, the shop keeper looked at me with challenge in her eyes! It was a dance off! I began to dance frantically!

    Bring it on!

    Suddenly, the ground rumbled! Everyone for miles ran close, excited to see dino action. But instead, we realized it was only the Volcano in the distance, erupting because of our dance.


    We weren't discouraged however, we began to dance again. The rumblings got louder and more violent! We had at least ten people dancing with all their might!

    Shake it!

    Then it happened! He came! We all ran around in fear and excitement while our PICO Guides updated themselves. We all had new stars.


    Yay! One step closer to completion~

    The dinosaur was very ferocious! He was giant, with razor sharp claws and teeth. He seemed very grumpy.

    Look at those giant feet!

    As fast as he had come, he was gone! We all stood amazed, coughing in his dust.

    Run out of the way! He's coming!

    However, I am truly in awe of that great beast! It was such a marvelous experience, I urge you all to see him for yourselves. Remember, have at least ten friends dancing with you for him to show.

    That's all for now PICO friends! Wait patiently till my next new discovery!

    Aliens?!
