Battle Pet BreedID is a standalone addon that will display the Breed of any pet in the following situations:
- In Battle
- In your Pet Journal's scroll list
- In your Pet Journal's pet description tooltips
- In Item tooltips
- In Chat Link tooltips
- In the "Collected ..." line (with BattlePetCount installed)
Theorycrafting is up to you... but if you know what stats you value most, now you can find them! To learn how the Breed ID affects your pets, go here: http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/battlepetbreedid/pages/what-is-the-breed-id/.
This addon uses the letter system by default (B/B for breed ID 3, etc), but if you want to switch to the number system used by other resources, just type "/breedid" or go to Interface->AddOns to open the Battle Pet BreedID options panel. You can change the format type at the top in the Dropdown box, along with over 20 other different options!
Notes on special breed results:
- If a pet's breed displays as "NEW", no base stat data is available for the pet yet. This usually only happens for pets introduced suddenly (like Blizzard Store pets or encrypted Holiday pets). I'll likely post a new update soon resolving the issue, as I am continually updating the addon with new base stat and breed data.
- If a pet's breed displays as "ERR" (or something similar), a bug has occurred. Please report the circumstances in the comments on CurseForge, and I'll try to resolve the issue (which is likely to be related to other addons).
- If a pet's breed displays as "???", this is not a bug. This addon works by taking the pet's raw stats (species, level, quality, health, power, and speed) and doing math to determine the breed based on known base stats (supplied by the addon). However, in some cases, 2 breeds can have identical health, power, and speed values while the pet is at level 1 (well, they really aren't identical under the hood, but because of rounding the decimal values, they appear identical to players and the API). The best way to solve this is to increase the level of the "???" pet to level 2. No conflicts exist past level 1, so it will resolve into the correct breed.

There seems to be some kind of regression in the latest version, breed IDs can no longer be seen in battle.
I'm not getting any errors, but during battle the Collected line isn't displaying breeds of pets.
Works great now, thanks for the fix!
Posted a fixed version that has the latest tooltip code change reverted: v1.17.1. Will investigate more later.
In reply to MMOSimca:
The problem is on line 280 in BreedTooltips.lua, there is a missing "self":
PB_GetNumPets(petOwner)
should be
PB_GetNumPets(self.petOwner)
Hello, I don't see any breeds in battle. And I can't change the breed display either. Only the "Letters (B / B)" display is shown. If I change it to "duel Numers (3/13)". The "Letters" ad remains. Even after restarting the game and reinstalling the add-on. :(
Using 1.17.0. Breeds show in pet management screen but not in pet battles.
In reply to thukew:
same here :/
Not showing in battle for me too
Current version is not displaying Breed IDs in battle.
Newest version is not displaying breed IDs...
In reply to Bekuchan:
Yup, same here
sorry i was commenting for the wrong addon
Hi, I got the following error while doing a pet battle world quest in Nazjatar
In reply to domi1294:
Interesting. Can't confirm the error personally.
Can you list any other Pet Battle addons you are using? I suspect PetTracker's involvement.
In reply to MMOSimca:
Yes I'm using PetTracker, other Pet Battle Addons I'm using are:
- Rematch
- tdBattlePetScript (including Rematch Plugin)
- I've moved some of the Pet Battle UI around with MoveAnything in case that matters
There was an update to PetTracker 9 hours ago and I think that might've fixed it, going to test it again and see if I still get the error
Update: It says (ERR-ELY) behind my pets name for the first pet battle I do after a /reload, if I forfeit and start again everything looks normal, I don't get any lua errors in either case though (at least none that bug grabber detected)
In reply to domi1294:
I'll grab PetTracker for myself later and look into fixing it. I have no idea what it's doing on first pet battle differently.
Thank you for the update for Shadowlands! It is showing the correct version on the client, but it says it's for game version 8.3 still.
In reply to Ravenwylde:
That should be fixed now.
In reply to MMOSimca:
I still see it listed as Game Version 8.3.0
