Pet Battles - the next two months

This is the status of my Pet Battle achievements from simplearmory.com
As you can see, while I have pretty much all of the "collections" achievements, I've almost none of the "Battle X trainers with Y type of pet only" ones, as well as only a few PVP achievements. My goal is to hit 100% completion of this section by April 15th. It's possible that I'll still be short a few due to RNG on trainer world quests but I don't mind finishing those up later. At a minimum, I need six weeks to obtain the two celestial tournament pets I'm still missing, so this can't be done any faster than that. General strategy is simple: 1. Once per week, do the Celestial Tournament as well as the "Win 10 PVP battles" quests. (The PVP quest rewards a Chain Pet Leash that I still don't have). 2. Daily, complete all pet world quests on the Broken Isles, Argus and in BFA. I work in order, starting with all Aquatic pets, then all Beast pets, the all Critters and so on. 3. Go crazy on the pet battle bonus event week and try to grind out a huge number of PVP games towards my 5000, with a focus on completing all of the "use all pets of type X" first. The PVP week is important as the players are often quite new to pet battling and queues are especially fast. 4. Once all the specialist battles are done (or very close to done, with just RNG blocking me from completion) I'll finish up any of the others I'm still missing, with the exception of the "5000 pet battles/ PVP pet battles" ones which I plan on just cheesing by killing level 1 pets in org and queuing with a friend to one-shot them for the PVP ones (e.g. queue with a pet of level 5, 10 and 15 and they queue with the same mix - this is the same strat most people use to finish the "complete 5 PVP pet battles without a pet dying" achievement). The Deadmines and Wailing Caverns challenges can be done whenever I get bored. After all this, I'll get to work on Toys then Mounts.

 7/21/23: I started the day with some quests from the dragon hatchery and for Chromie. The Chromie one was fun - she turned me into a quest giver and had me hand out quests. After that, I did the Tempo quests near Chromie and picked up a cosmetic shades in the process. Next, I worked on the Daycare questline. I now have to wait until tomorrow before continuing. lAfter that, I worked on Loamen Niffen rep to get the 1500 for the weekly. The first quest I did however was for a 405 bracer that I upgraded to 411. (afternoon) I just learned that I can buy Vault keys for 50 Dragonscale Supplies each! [Every Door, Everywhere, All at Once] is mine! I also picked up An Odd Round Object, which is an item I needed to continue the "story" questline from Voraxian (this is an achievement I was working on a few days ago). 7/22/23: I noticed that Old Hatreds' mob was no longer evade bugged and so finally finished that questline, getting [A New Beginning]!

 8/7/23: I picked up the Duskytooth Snooter by repeatedly resetting the Mechagon instance 18 times until it spawned! Next I did some more Little Scales Daycare quests and picked up two more pets from it. 1464 total now. Now to use my Ultrasafe Transporter and head back to Mechagon to get the last two pets I need. The first of which, Specimen 97, looks like it should be easy enough to catch as it's supposed to be unique but always up. The last one I needed was Yellow Junkhopper. I took the advice on wowhead and made a macro to target it, then repeatedly exited and re-entered the Mechagon instance in order to eventually have one pop up. I think I did this thirteen times or so before it worked (lockout is at 10, so it took an extra hour) and now I finally have [Mecha-Safari]!  I went after the Shadowlands pets next. I was missing four, including Clutch which is semi-rare so I went after that one first. The rest were easy and so now I have [Shadowlands Safari]]! 8/8/23: I spent a bit o
