    The latest beta patch includes quite a few changes, including five new companion pets. Fishy The spell says it will summon Bubbles, but the actual pet says Fishy. I hope Bubbles is the name that makes it into live. Gilnean Raven Sounds sinister. Red Cricket Seems like this would make good Snake food. Shore Crab Will this pet differ much from the Strand Crawler? Terrible Turnip Do want, just on the name alone. It probably comes from the Tillers faction. No information is available yet as to how most of these pets are obtained or what they look like. I'm dying to know how the Terrible Turnip looks and behaves in battle. When it is injured, does it bleed? And how will Fishy fight? Perhaps it will be in a fishbowl and blow poisonous bubbles at its foe. I can't wait to find out! Note: Pet Battles are not in the beta yet, unfortunately. It's open warfare between Alliance and Horde in Mists of Pandaria, World of Warcraft's next expansion. Jump into five new levels with new talents and class mechanics, try the new monk class, and create a pandaren character to ally with either Horde or Alliance. Look for expansion basics in our Mists FAQ, or dig into our spring press event coverage for more details!
