Talk:Breed/Hybrid

Qualifying Breeds
Pennybright Copper, Pink Iris Floret, Purple Alstroemeria, and Gold Alstroemeria are all bred-only dragons that require breeding between two different species. Do they not qualify as Hybrids? Is simply sharing the suffix of the name with one of the parent breeds (and using the same sprite just a different color) sufficient to disqualify from being a Hybrid?

If they do qualify as hybrids then the following should be placed on the main article. They should also be moved from the parent pages to their own page as hybrids and not alternate colors of one of the parent breeds.

If they do not qualify as hybrids then the hybrid page should be updated to more accurately describe hybrids since according to the description given currently all the mentioned dragons qualify. I don't think they qualify as true hybrids due to the sprite sharing and name similarity. If the rest of the wiki concurs then the hybrid article will need to be corrected as the current description of a hybrid does not preclude these from qualifying.

Also is it known if Pennybright Coppers can be obtained via breeding with any dragon with Lightning affinity or does it have to be a dragon with Lightning as their primary affinity?


 * IMO, those do not count as hybrids. For something to be a hybrid breed, it needs to be a distinct breed of dragon, and it needs to be able to be produced by breeding two dragons of a different breed. It would be better to reword the intro section of the article.


 * In the encyclopedia, Pennybright Coppers are still Copper Dragons, appearing under the Copper Dragon entry. Copper Dragons can be found in the wild, even if certain variants are bred-only. Pennybright Coppers can also only be produced by breeding a Copper Dragon, they can't be produced by breeding two non-Copper breeds.

 * I understand Pennybrights only come from a Copper parent and a lightning affinity parent... but is it *any* lightning affinity or only the primary element that counts is my question. Vain.3805 (talk) 17:00, 30 July 2021 (UTC)


 * From my attempts, I have yet to produce a Pennybright from a lightning-secondary parent, but I also have fairly few Coppers to test with 😅
