This has some chances to be impacted by breed and RNG, but even losing a pet early I was still able to pull out a win.Dragonkin: Dragons!

Using the [npc=77137], the breed of the [npc=88575] can vary (I won with H/H). Commenters on the OP offer options for substitutions to the 1st and 3rd pets, but the MVP for this strat is [npc=88225].Humanoid: Murlocs, Harpies, and Wolvar, Oh My!
- Team: [npc=15698] (2,1,1) | [npc=15705] (2,1,2) | [npc=97229] (1,1,1)
Strategy: here | Credit: Tisina
FYI, in terms of attacks and breeds, [npc=15698] = [npc=15705] - so you just need two of any/either.Magic: Master of Magic
- Team: [npc=71021] (1,2,1) | [npc=71019] (1,2,2) | [npc=71016] (1,1,1)
(If it's relevant, my Voidcaller is H/P, Coilfang is P/B and my Abyssal is P/P - please let me know if there are breed issues with this strat.)
Spoiler
Katiku's suggestion actually made me completely rethink/retool the Magic strat. More swaps overall, but I think it'll be less RNG for different pet breeds.
Start with Lesser Voidcaller
- [pet-ability=218] (Sir Murkeston will stun himself with [pet-ability=1106])
- [pet-ability=422] (Murk swaps with Coach)
- [pet-ability=444]
- Swap to Coilfang Stalker
- [pet-ability=488]
- [pet-ability=482] until Coach dies (2-3)
- [pet-ability=465] (Murk should use [pet-ability=1103] to bring in Greatest Foe)
- Swap back to Lesser Voidcaller
- [pet-ability=218]
- [pet-ability=444]
- Swap to Netherspace Abyssal
- [pet-ability=407]
(P/S Abyssals might need to pass 1st to avoid hitting barrier with Strike)- [pet-ability=406] until Greatest Foe dies (2-3)
- [pet-ability=406] should finish off Sir Murk, but if he kills the Abyssal, bring in your Voidcaller for some [pet-ability=422].

Any Fragment of [emotion] should work fine, just make sure to spec [pet-ability=752] and [pet-ability=1066].
Quest
Fight Night: Sir Galveston
A World of Warcraft quest in Dalaran. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
For Mousing Around, I used:
1. Rapana Whelk (221) - vs [npc=99186]
2. Shimmershell Snail (121) - vs [npc=99185]
3. Frostfur Rat (112) - vs [npc=99187]The selected critters have moves that deal extra damage to their counterparts. Play it smart and adapt the strategy and this portion of the achievement is pretty much in the bag.
You can use any snails for the first and second pet slots as long as they have the stated skills.
Start with Rapana Whelk against [npc=99186]. Absorb once and you get hit by Falling Murloc. [npc=99186] will swap to [npc=99185] due to the stun from Falling Murloc. You swap to Shimmershell Snail.
Shimmershell Snail comes in. [npc=99185] will Lift-Off, while you use Dive. Since you are slower, Lift-Off misses you, while your Dive hits. Keep Shell Shield up and Ooze Touch [npc=99185] to KO.
[npc=99186] enters and Falling Murloc.Take the hit to ensure it stuns itself, while you Ooze Touch it. After the stun it will swap to [npc=99187], while you swap to Frostfur Rat.
Frostfur Rat enters. You are faster than [npc=99187]. Keep Crouch and Call Darkness up, then Sneak Attack until [npc=99187] KOs.
[npc=99186] comes back in. Keep Crouch and Call Darkness up, then Sneak Attack until Frostfur Rat KOs. By this point, [npc=99186] should have expended Righteous Inspiration + Attack. If not expended, bring in Shimmershell Snail as a buffer to eat the combo while you try to whittle its health down.
Bring in Rapana Whelk. Use Absorb until [npc=99186] KOs.
For Roboteer I used
Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (1,2,2)
Clockwork Gnome (1,1,1)
Lil' Bling (2,1,1)I just did the normal attacks with each pets.
Decoy > Thunderbolt > Breath until thunder is up again. I could only use Decoy once
Turrets > Metal Fist until Turret is back
Make it rain > inflation (Blingtron Gift Package if the bird is up)I didn't get the impression this is RNG dependant, but I'm not sure as this was a one-shot for me.
