DECIDE JN'S NEW MASCOT

UPDATE, April 1st 5:00 PM NST: And with that, our poll is officially closed! Check out the leaderboard to see our unsuspected winner! We have much to think about before proceeding with any mascot promises...

All that said, Petpet Lab Ray Logging is here to stay! If you haven't already, install the browser extension and start saving your zap history!



UPDATE, April 1st 4:30 PM NST: In a shocking upset that no one has seen coming, the strange old petpet is now in 1st place!

UPDATE, April 1st 11:30 AM NST: Symols are fortifying their spot at the top. But that strange petpet keeps jumping the ranks this morning, now in 10th place!

UPDATE, April 1st 8:45 AM NST: Symols are still holding strong on the leaderboard in first place. Nurannas and Slorgs have been running up towards the top over this morning, however. And... what?? What's that petpet in 25th place???

UPDATE, March 31st 8:00 PM NST: Symols have taken the top spot on the zap leaderboard. Zapped 7 times out of over 200 species changes today. Can they be caught? Kookiths and Noils are on their heels! (Over 140 different species have shown up in our zap histories today alone!) Keep zapping tomorrow!



We want a new mascot! And we want it to be a petpet! So, we thought, what better way to make such an important decision than by leaving it up to random chance!?!?



Petpet Lab Ray Logging Now Available
We're excited to announce that logging for zaps at the Petpet Lab Ray is now available with our Lab Ray Logger service!


If you already have the browser extension installed, no need to make any changes—the logging will happen automatically! Simply ensure that you're updated to version 2.0 on Firefox or version 4.0 on Chrome/Edge.

If you don't have it installed yet, get it now:


Your petpet zaps will be shown under a new tab for the Neopet that the petpet is attached to:



And like Neopet zaps, we'll give you a summary of your zaps at the top of the page. Plus, you can share your petpet zap history after enabling sharing!




So, what does that have to do with choosing a new mascot? Well, we're going to let the petpet zaps decide!


Each time someone zaps their petpet into a new species, that species gets one vote towards being our new mascot! By 5:00 PM NST on Wednesday, the petpet species with the most zaps will be crowned our new Jellyfied mascot.

Go zap your petpets, and keep checking the leaderboard throughout the day!

There are 76 comments below. Add yours!

smh polarchucks should be winning

So it'll be a Pile of Soot then?
by commiewords on March 31, 2026 9:08 AM NST
Pandaphant.
by bodhi on March 31, 2026 9:09 AM NST
@commiewords i was JUST about to say that
by laurpets on March 31, 2026 9:25 AM NST
Would be nice just to have PEOPLE pick one! When a AI does, it sometimes turns out not good! This should be interesting! I don't zap so I will not be responsible for the outcome! haha
by rosemarie2003 on March 31, 2026 9:26 AM NST
If only Old Chap were available.
by pancake on March 31, 2026 9:48 AM NST
Fun idea, but since the leaderboard isn't considering colour, aren't the odds just in favor of whatever petpet has the most colour options?
by thesign2 on March 31, 2026 9:48 AM NST
Wow! Only a day to choose?! And, I second the Pile of Soot is going to be the likeliest candidate. I'm not zapping my labbie Petpet at the moment but interested to see how this turns out.
by purplewarf on March 31, 2026 9:49 AM NST
They had us in the first half not gonna lie
by cinderpaw618 on March 31, 2026 9:58 AM NST
Don't worry--Pile of Soot zaps aren't being counted! Otherwise yes, we might as well crown the Soot now.
by dave on March 31, 2026 10:03 AM NST JN Staff
its still march ... right ? *checks date*
by scr3wdriver on March 31, 2026 10:04 AM NST
The petpet you are going to get is the least-desired petpet of all of the myriad petpets that the algorithm is percentage-wise likely to grant . Because nobody keeps on zapping after they get something they want.

You could have just told us you love the Pile of Soot.
by solsticesprite on March 31, 2026 10:05 AM NST
why only one day to choose?! my zaps today were lose a level and name changes
by void_dweller on March 31, 2026 10:11 AM NST
justice for the pile of soot !!
by academy on March 31, 2026 10:12 AM NST
Are we really all just believing this? lmao
by neo492492 on March 31, 2026 10:57 AM NST
It HAS to be Slorg!!
by emrah on March 31, 2026 11:20 AM NST
What could possibly go wrong? LOL
by neolodgeism on March 31, 2026 11:26 AM NST
This is actually hilarious, insane and beautiful idea and I am manifesting it be something cool like a Walking Carpet
by jellybeanfish on March 31, 2026 11:33 AM NST
wdym pile of soot isn't being counted? smh they should be winning
by tani on March 31, 2026 11:34 AM NST
Also came here to say it'll be Pile of Soot...got mine with both zaps today
by spacecowgirl5421 on March 31, 2026 11:38 AM NST
watch it be something weird like lil frankie
by monster on March 31, 2026 11:54 AM NST
Haha and here I was gonna cast my vote for the Alien Meepit. I just think it's got the right vibe. But I clearly didn't get lucky enough
by eidolonesque on March 31, 2026 11:54 AM NST
A Jelly Petpet!
by kacheekfan96 on March 31, 2026 12:51 PM NST
Can we manually add petpet zaps? I can't install the extension on my iPad where I play
by westie037 on March 31, 2026 1:01 PM NST
Pile of soot for the win
by josie on March 31, 2026 1:37 PM NST
I have a petpet I'm zapping, so got very exciting for this!

And if @emrah is right, good job JN. And if this is a real thing are you ready to have Pile of Soot as your mascot?
by mistyraider on March 31, 2026 1:47 PM NST
How is pile of soot not winning
by miss_colly on March 31, 2026 1:54 PM NST
Can't participate as don't have Lab Ray, but I can at least speculate with the rest. So, what am I hoping for? I know Old Chap is a fan fav, but after looking over all the Petpets I gotta say the Ooo calls to me.
by pikachu315111 on March 31, 2026 2:01 PM NST
@westie037: That's coming soon!
by dave on March 31, 2026 2:15 PM NST JN Staff

Omg, this is a fun idea!!!
by neodressup on March 31, 2026 5:09 PM NST
We will, we will ROCK you!
by jennypurr on March 31, 2026 5:22 PM NST JN Staff
fyora please anything but a faellie.

they used to be my favorite but because of their huge push onsite i'm just overtly tired of seeing them at all. even gave my dog my (once) favorite faellie plush as a chew toy.
by inkpot on March 31, 2026 6:56 PM NST
COME ON KOOKITH
by akarroa on March 31, 2026 8:34 PM NST
@thesign2 - that's how JN can sneakily (almost) guarantee they won't end up with something like the Tanamurx as their mascot

I'm surprised it's not limited to species that come in jelly, though!
by wheewhoo on March 31, 2026 10:01 PM NST
You know the only true answer is the Blobikins, right?
by apophis324 on March 31, 2026 11:51 PM NST
*shouts over the crowd*

@pikachu315111 - What pieces are you missing, Master Pik?
by 1jediboy on April 1, 2026 12:51 AM NST
Got a gut feeling this is setup for you guys to shove oldchap in our collective consceinece again.
by problematicperiplum on April 1, 2026 1:11 AM NST
April Fools joke
by bearden61 on April 1, 2026 3:33 AM NST
Is the joke going to be that the winner will be Old Chap again?
by jelly on April 1, 2026 4:01 AM NST
change the mascot to old chap permanently. you know you want to.
by contrasted_polaroid on April 1, 2026 4:06 AM NST
Everywhere I go, I see his face...
by bonju on April 1, 2026 4:26 AM NST
Do we know what is happening on Neopia? I'm not really seeing anything out of the ordinary..
by apophis324 on April 1, 2026 4:32 AM NST
Well done You remembered.
by woodstocki on April 1, 2026 7:05 AM NST
Will the P2 ray logger be a permanent addition? I have a lab pet, and would love to chronicle both!
by lumanare on April 1, 2026 7:24 AM NST
I already know what the punchline's gonna be and yet I'm here for it bc its funny every time
by yayme211 on April 1, 2026 7:53 AM NST
@lumanare Yes! It's here to stay forever!
by kenny on April 1, 2026 8:17 AM NST JN Staff
WAIT YOU CAN ZAP TO OLD CHAP?!
by samistarsyou on April 1, 2026 8:29 AM NST
oh oh god I got fooled, didn't I?
by samistarsyou on April 1, 2026 9:01 AM NST
Based on the new comment avatars, I think there is a favourite in this race...
I, for one, welcome our new Old Chap mascot.
by andrew on April 1, 2026 9:11 AM NST
There is a disturbing lack of Ghostkerchief representation
by asterick on April 1, 2026 9:42 AM NST JN Staff
OLD CHAP!
by sunkistjello on April 1, 2026 9:46 AM NST
OLD CHAP!
by monster on April 1, 2026 9:57 AM NST
I meant to comment last night just to say you guys are awesome, what with all your features and offerings for players, that is.
Shame you don’t seem to be doing anything special for today, other than preemptively declaring the winner for this contest, it seems.
by elvenfaery on April 1, 2026 11:36 AM NST
I figured yesterday that this would somehow turn into another Old Chap joke. My suspicions have been proven correct.
by popplia on April 1, 2026 11:37 AM NST
Thank you so much for adding the petpet tracking!
by spicylife on April 1, 2026 12:10 PM NST
@popplia: Not sure what you mean by "joke"!!
by dave on April 1, 2026 1:24 PM NST JN Staff

by reckless4romance on April 1, 2026 1:57 PM NST

by mateus_carrara on April 1, 2026 9:01 PM NST
LOL what? you guys don't want an old chap as the mascot for years to come? I wonder why
by lexronomicon on April 1, 2026 9:35 PM NST
Already knew the Old Chap will be announced as the winner. C’mon TJNT, that joke is old already.
by jelly on April 2, 2026 12:11 AM NST
lab ray logger is my fav JN tool!!! thank you for expanding it to petpets
by jawbutch on April 2, 2026 7:21 AM NST
Is the petpet logger available only with the extension? I don't use that unfortunately and only manually log
