How to Obtain
Wild Capture
Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in Mechagon, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Malfunctioning Microbot: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Malfunctioning Microbot to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.
| Ability | Slot | Unlock level |
|---|---|---|
| Zap | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Alert! | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Haywire | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Warning! | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Interrupting Jolt | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Explode | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Zap (level 1) with Alert! (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Haywire (level 2) with Warning! (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Interrupting Jolt (level 4) with Explode (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.
Where to Find It: Mechagon Island
Return to ZandalarThe game data places this pet in Mechagon Island but records no spawn coordinates. The gold pins are the zone's own landmarks from the game data, not this pet's spawn points.
