Ideas for taming challenges

[evil950510]

These ideas came to me after pet battling taming.

First challenge would be rates that only appear during a specific season; as in it only spawns in the summer and one that would only spawn in the fall and so on. Or it could change its look depending on the season.

Second challenge would be a rare that spawns on a certain weather conditions, like raining or during a sandstorm.

Lastly a rare that only spawns durning a cycle of a day, as only midnight or dawn. One of the rare games I remember the best is taming Old Cliff Jumper. Showing up late at night then search for him and watch him slowly walk out from the darkness of the trees into the moonlight. Was a very mystical feeling.

So these are my ideas let me know what you think and please tell of your own ideas for challenges or anything related.

one where if it sees you you get 1 shotted and you need to bring it specific food for it to come near to you, then you need to lower it's hp then tame

personally i dont like trick tames. I dont like the idea of having to beat up a pet before tameing. Id rather see beasts beeing more clever.
Takk jumps up the mountain right. I would like to see some rare hideing in random trees in the area it hangs in.
Or maybe hiding in bushes ect. or simply just....runs away from you! Forcing you to plan ahead with trap.
