Believe I understand about the level 48 pets being used to produce hybrids, but I was wondering about something and hope someone can help. (Sorry if it is long-winded.)
Let's say my goal is to hatch a Death Oni with a very good pedigree and high stats. I have my 48 level wraith, George, and I have a friend with a helephant (pedigree 53) who is willing to hatch with me. But George only has a pedigree of 53 and I really would like to have a Death Oni with a better pedigree than that.
So I decide to hatch George with a Sea Dragon (pedigree 72) and get a new wraith, Fred, who has a pedigree of 60 and the better stats to go with it. Ever the optimist, I then cross Fred with the Sea Dragon and again get a wraith, Sam ... this time with a pedigree of 65.
Now here's the question.
If I cross Sam (who basically is a 3rd generation wraith) with the helephant, will I be able to get a Death Oni with better pedigree? OR do I HAVE to use George in order to have any chance at all of producing the desired hybrid (Death Oni)?
Hybrid hatches can be a somewhat rare event, even when both parent can produce one. Just keep trying and don't get discouraged. You'll get it eventually.
