You can obtain this legendary companion by hatching a Zen Egg, which takes 4 hours and 10 minutes.

Its passive ability, Mischief, randomly triggers helpful actions in your garden like adding mutations such as Choc or Moonlit to crops and reducing other pets’ cooldown times.
Thanks to these features, it can easily handle the tasks of several pets alone.
Visually, it has a blocky, pixel-style appearance with a beige face, dark brown mask markings, brown body, pointed ears, and a striped chunky tail.
