Pet tamer

	Pet Battle System
	Abilities Companions Trainers Tamers

Pet Tamers are NPCs that the player can fight using the Pet Battle System. They are located around the world, with pets ranging from beginner's level to master.

In order to fight pet tamers for the first time, you must have the appropriate quest sending you to fight them. You obtain the first of these quests from your battle pet trainer located in either Stormwind City or Orgrimmar when your pet reaches level 3.

There are prizes and achievements for winning against pet tamers. Defeating all of the tamers in any region will open up pet battle daily quests within that region. Once you have defeated all of the pet tamers required for  [Taming Azeroth], you gain access to the title <Tamer>. Defeating 40 master tamers is the aim of  [Taming the World].
