I'd like to have the option to chase away a pet I can see on the map and don't want any pets of that type.  This could be done by placing a catcher who was anti a specific pet type and would chase away all pets of that type from the whole map, or it could be done by placing a catcher who would chase away all pets on a specific location BEFORE the pets move.  Or an item could be usable on the catching screen for the same effect - dragon repellant, puma repellant, etc.  As an item it would not take up a catcher slot or be placed onto the map.

Cool idea! I think my sibling would really like it because she dislikes Rocs, so a Roc repellant item would probably make her much happier when catching pets!

I support!

Useful idea. Support. :)

Wouldn't Inn invites essentially serve the same purpose by making one creature more probable over the others?

I can see the point though - I have one unicorn I've been chasing for the last four cycles and the bugger's made two of my catchers run for their lives. I don't even *like* unicorns, if I could chase it off to free up the den for a new creature I would. -.-

Actually I used a gryphon magician invite and no gryphon spawned in all three days. I haven't had one spawn in at least a week. :(

So I would tentatively support. I've made two posts in the rants thread the last week or so that the overwhelming majority of creatures spawning on my map are cockatrice. I've caught over 15 in (I think) under two weeks.

I would love to scare them off instead of having to catch them all but also I can sell any decent ones so it isn't too annoying.

Trade me maps Ankokou xD Today was the first time I've seen a cockatrice :P

Also yeah, invites only increase the chance, they don't promise to bring that pet in.

Support... there was one week that was just insane. I had pets all over and so many were in the same spot. It was impossible to predict so I just put random catchers out.
