Which pets are best in Super Auto Pets right now? The latest located ranking is Pocket Gamer’s list, updated October 5, 2026, which labels the game version as 203 and sorts pets into S, A, B, C, D, and F tiers. Treat it as one publication’s editorial guide—not a definitive ranking for every pack, mode, or team.

How to read the October 2026 tier list

Pocket Gamer’s Mihail Katsoris describes S-tier pets as choices to build a team around. Lower tiers indicate pets the list considers weaker or more situational, not automatically unusable. The article does not give a transparent scoring rubric, so the tiers are best used as a starting point for decisions rather than a guarantee of results. Pocket Gamer’s October 2026 list

Its ranking spans pets with different pack labels and shop tiers. Those distinctions matter: a pet’s value depends on whether it is available in your pack and mode, when you can buy it, and whether its ability fits the other pets on your team. Some entries in the source are repeated or ambiguously labelled, so the examples below are not a cleaned, exhaustive roster.

Which pets does Pocket Gamer place in S tier?

The October 5 list places these examples in S tier: Blue Whale (Danger Pack), Panther, Rhino (Racer), Sumatran Tiger (Danger Pack), Bird of Paradise, Cobra, Alpaca, Cat, Chicken, Clownfish, Dog, Lioness, Bison, Octopus, German Shepherd, Nurse Shark, Leopard, Sloth, Grizzly Bear, T Rex, Stegosaurus, Turtle, Warthog, Manta Ray, White Tiger, Pteranodon, Fire Ant, Wildebeest, Crane, Velociraptor, Vulture, Doberman, Jerboa, Lynx, Tyrannosaurus, Praying Mantis, Spinosaurus, Nessie, and Pixiu. This is a selection from the list, not a claim that every pet is available in every pack or mode. Pocket Gamer

Plaid Hat Games Super Auto Pets Card Battle Golden Pack, Ages 9+
  • Introduces an exciting new mechanic where trumpets power special abilities and summon a Golden Retriever in battle when your team is defeated, adding strategic depth.
  • Expand your gameplay with a fresh roster of pets and creative food cards that unlock new synergies, combos, and unpredictable auto battle outcomes every match.
  • Fully playable as a two-player game right out of the box, or combine with other Super Auto Pets packs to create expanded, chaotic, and highly replayable battles.
  • Combine multiple packs to scale gameplay for 4 or 6 players, making it a flexible option for group game nights, parties, or competitive tabletop sessions.
  • Enjoy quick rounds with easy-to-learn mechanics, where team building, positioning, and clever use of resources determine victory in dynamic auto-resolving battles.

Why a tier label does not decide a team

In Super Auto Pets, each pet has base attack and health plus an ability; pets can be repositioned, sold, merged, or supported with food. A team can hold five pets. Those mechanics make placement and combinations part of the decision, not just the individual pet’s tier. The community-maintained Pets reference describes these mechanics and notes that many abilities work particularly well together.

Shop timing changes what is practical

Ordinary shop pets cost three gold, and shop tiers unlock every other turn. Tier X becomes available on turn 2X−1, so tier six opens on turn eleven. A powerful later-tier pet is not necessarily an option when you are deciding what to buy earlier. In battle, your pets attack from right to left and the opponent’s from left to right, so position can also affect how an ability or matchup plays out. Super Auto Pets Wiki: Pets

Use the list as a shortlist, then check fit

  • Confirm that the pet belongs to the pack and mode you are playing.
  • Consider whether you can access it at the current shop tier and turn.
  • Check whether its ability complements the other pets you can realistically keep on a five-pet team.
  • Pay attention to position and the order in which pets will attack.

Why rankings can differ

A comparison is meaningful only when the lists are reasonably aligned on publication date, game version, pack pool, mode, shop timing, and assumed team synergies. A ranking for one pack or mode may not transfer cleanly to another. Grounded SAP’s directory illustrates how creator lists vary by date and scope, including historical pack- and mode-specific rankings; those entries provide context, not a replacement for the October 2026 ranking. Grounded SAP: Tier Lists

The Pocket Gamer article labels its list version 203. The community wiki’s version-history page uses a different numbering convention: its 2026 entries include version 0.48, the May 21 “Bugs, Cowardly, & Danger” update with Danger Pack balance changes, and version 0.47, the April 8 Daily Mode update with minor balance changes. The available sources do not establish a direct conversion between those labels, so do not treat “203” and “0.48” as equivalent version numbers. Super Auto Pets Wiki: Version history

How much authority should this list carry?

Pocket Gamer’s October 5, 2026 ranking is a dated editorial tier list, not a measured community consensus or an official developer ranking. Grounded SAP also archives creator and community lists from earlier years, including 2023 community-voted lists, but their age and differing formats make them historical comparisons rather than current universal guidance. Use the Pocket Gamer placements as a snapshot, then adapt them to your own pack, mode, shop options, and team.

One caution when consulting the Pocket Gamer page: some pets appear more than once with differing tier or pack labels—for example, Blue Whale is shown in both S and A, Bay Cat in A and B, and Camel in B and C. The source does not resolve those conflicting entries, so check the article’s own labels rather than assuming each pet has one unambiguous placement. Pocket Gamer’s tier list
