Training your Neopets is not as simple as it might first appear. It’s a process that requires careful planning, dedication, and a solid investment of time and Neopoints. Unlike other aspects of the game, training your pets isn’t something that can be completed in an afternoon—it takes patience, strategy, and a bit of financial commitment. So, what does training your Neopets involve? How do you go about improving their stats and unlocking their full potential?

In this guide, I’ll break down everything you need to know about the training process, including the different training courses available, how they work, and tips for making the most out of your pet’s training regimen. Whether you’re aiming to increase your pet’s strength, defense, or other important stats, I’ll walk you through each step, so you can make informed decisions and successfully level up your pets for battles and other activities in the Neopets world. Let’s dive into the world of pet training and set your Neopets on the path to greatness!

There are four types of courses. Basic courses are easy, they don’t take long to complete, and can only be done by Neopets of level 20 and under. Advanced and Master courses take longer to complete and are for higher level pets. The most experienced Neopets take Grand Master courses. When your Neopet reaches level 250, I am afraid that is the limit of my teaching, they must go elsewhere for guidance.

Course Type	Neopet Level	Cost	Length
Grasshopper	20 and Under	1 codestone	2 hours
Basic	21-40	2 codestones	3 hours
Intermediate	41-80	3 codestones	4 hours
Adept	81-100	4 codestones	6 hours
Advanced	101-120	5 codestones	8 hours
Expert	121-150	6 codestones	12 hours
Master	151-200	7 codestones	18 hours
Grand Master	201-250	8 codestones	24 hours

You must pay in codestones. What are those you ask? They are “rare” stones used as “payment”. You can find them from Random Events, win them from tombola, and even buy them from the Shop Wizard. These can become mightly costly!

You can train your pet in the following categories. We have given advice on which ones you should take first, etc.

• Strength: Semi-important.
• Defence: Not very important.
• Agility: Your speed, somewhat important.
• Endurance: Also known as your health. Very important.
• Level: Do not make your level too high. Make it half of each of your stats (see training note below to understand). The higher your pet level, the more codestones you have to purchase and pay with!

Training Note: Here at the Mystery Island Training School, you may train your endurance to three times your level. However, if you wish to train any of the other attributes, you will need to train your level back up to within half of your endurance.

• Example: If your pet is level 50, with strength 75, and endurance 120, and you wish to train in strength, you will need to get your level up to half of your endurance, which in this case would be 60 (120 / 2 = 60).

To put your pet through the course, select which pet and course you want to put it through. Your master will then ask for a codestone. Buy that codestone, come back, go to “status” and pay for it. Some codestones vary on the prices, but they’re around 5, 000 neopoints each. Pretty costy!

Welcome to Cap’n Threelegs Swashbuckling Academy. Whether tis a quick lesson ye need, or ye wish to stay for a week and master yer skills, there be only two rules: All courses are paid for in Dubloons and I sees the colour of yer money before the training starts. This training only goes up to level 40, then you must go else where to seek training.

Course Type	Neopet Level	Cost	Length
Sea Urchin	10 and under	1 Dubloon	4 hours
Deckhand	11-20	2 Dubloons	6 hours
Pirate	21-30	5 Dubloons	8 hours
Cap’n	31-40	5 Dubloons	10 hours

You must pay in dubloons. What are those you ask? They are “rare” coins used as “payment”. You can find them from Random Events, win them from games and dailies, and even buy them from the Shop Wizard. These can become mightly costly!

Getting into this school is much more harder than the others. You need two things: a 250+ level pet AND a red codestone. Trying to get either can be a bit tricky and costly! But there are ways we can help. We can teach you how to recieve a red codestone, but the rest is up to you and your lovely pet.

You must pay in codestones. What are those you ask? They are “rare” stones used as “payment”. There are only two ways we know of on how to get a red codestone. You can either purchase one from the Shop Wizard or go to the volcano. You must collect every single regular codestone (the yellow ones: main, lu etc.) and visit the Volcano. Once you have all ten, it will give you a red codestone, which is completely random, meaning you can get any red codestone.

The lab ray, quests, and using items, have proven to be quite an efficent way to train your pet up. Certainly takes less time then going through training schools, but can be a bit more expensive in the long run. There are neggs and points to help raise your points. 🙂 Also, random events can help raise stars.
