I've posted a version of this idea before but I think that with the current rylak/hook wasp debacle, I have a suggestion for a new-ish hunter pet group, based on the Warlock's green fire quest. This maybe a long or confusing or long and conufsing post, so please, bear with me.
Just like your Warlock friends or acquaintances or best buds or any other form of social convention you have or wish to have with a warlock, when a Hunter reaches level 100 they will be able to do this scenario. Your hunter, depending on its race would go be summoned to their respective quest givers, because each race would have a tad different text and outcome or reward upon completion of this quest: The quest givers are as follows:
Horde:
- For Blood Elves, Orcs, Trolls, Goblins and Tauren, you're quest giver is Rexxar (Champion of the Horde).
- For Undeads, you will be sent to Nathanos Blightcaller.
Alliance:
- Humans, Worgens, Draeneis and Dwarves will be sent to Kudran.
- Night Elves will meet Shandris Feathermoon.
Neutral:-
- Pandarens, regardless of their factions and loyalty will meet Lorewalker Cho.
I've yet to come out how the scenario will play out and what quests would entail, but I have this idea of you have to do a series of quest to earn it. Among the thing you have to do is to take care of Spirit's (Rexxar's Wyvern) clutch as a Horde or if you are an Alliance, you will be tasked in taking care of Sky'ree's one and only surviving egg(Kudran's dead Gryphon). You would be also tasked to rescue Hippogryph if you're an Alliance or find Nathanos lost mount he had when he was still a human if you're a Horde.
As a quest reward, you would be given a spell to summon a hunter's pet, iconic to your race or faction. These pets are the same as your normal active pet, that you can only have one at a time, can be specced into their roles as tenacity, ferocity or cunning but require no stable spot as they come as a summon spell and can only be summoned when you have no other pet active. If they are dead, they can't be summoned using their summon spell but first need to be revived like any normal pet.
Horde
-Orcs, Goblins, Taurens and Trolls get 'Summon Wyvern'. The Wyverns may or may not have armors or war paint or banner depending on your race. For example, a Goblin's Wyvern, may have rockets and turbo engine strapped to its abdomen.
- Undead gets 'Summon Undead Gryphon'.
Alliance
- Humans, Worgens, Draeneis and Dwarves learns 'Summon Gryphon'.The Gryphons may or may not have armors or war paint or banner depending on your race. For example, a Worgen's Wyvern, may be wearing a garland of Gilnean Roses, with petals always falling.
-Night Elves can learn 'Summon Hippogryph'.
Neutral
- Both Alliance and Horde Pandaren can now use 'Summon Pandarian Phoenix', The Phenonixes may or may not have armors or war paint or banner depending on your faction; Huojin or Tushui?
The reason as to why each race gets different pets is because I believe that Hippogriffs, Wyverns and Gryphons are iconic beasts and they should not be used by other faction and the reason as to why they come as spells instead of your hunters passively learn 'Tame X Beast' spell like Dinomancy for Direhorn is because, if you race change your hunter, you cannot use your tamed pet;eg An Orc Hunter race changes to a Dwarves would not be able to control his tame pet Wyvern anymore.
Even though they are from different families, Alliance's Gryphons and Hippgriffs, and Horde's Undead Gryphon's and Wyverns have the same family skills.
If you're character is either currently a Marksmanship or a Survival hunter, your pet would automatically learn a "Haste Buff" spell(10% haste increment). The name of the spell would be appropriate to your hunter's race and pet combo.
If you're hunter is a Beastmastery Hunter, your pet have both +10% Haste and +10% Stamnina buffs as well 'Tailwind', which is a levitate buff. This is to reflect Beastmastery use of exotic pets as well as a replacement for the lost spells learned by Hook Wasp which now considered a normal pet group in the Wasp family.
If your hunter respecced, your summoned pet's spell would change automatically as well.

Re: New scenario that reward spell (pet) for hunter in WOD i
I like it, but I don't think it would need to be a stableless pet. That sounds kind of complicated. You could put it at the end of the final scenario, and if someone wanted it again, they could redo the scenario (I'm pretty sure Warlocks can redo the last part of their scenario, I've seen guides where the warlock already had green fire but was doing the fight again).
That might give you a little more options about your 'scenario pet'. Like a troll could choose between a windrider or a pterodactyl, but would have to release one to tame the other. Personally, I'd want a red-armored grand gryphon instead of one with ironforge decals.

I get what you mean but I don't think having it as a spell as complicated as that Warlock's pets are not stabled. Having said, you have an amzing idea of using Pterodaxx or Pterrorwings for Trolls. Seriously best idea.

Pop, so are you also Hyde from MMO's Forums?

Pterodactyl have only had a link to them via the Zandalari in Mists, which the darkspear have been pretty keen to avoid, before that there was no connection.
and if you want "Iconic" for troll, I'd actually suggest Bats, they are originally linked/have an affinity with them, starting in WC3 and later in ZG and even beyond into DotAXota wrote: That might give you a little more options about your 'scenario pet'.
