Dragons needing mates (and advice about mates)

[codyne]

Going to just leave this here, mostly as a reminder to myself, but if anyone can help with mates for these dragons, or advice on some of the more difficult ones, let me know!

Holiday dragons:

Anya Iggy: 2G Gold from Ribbon Dancer (can breed this eventually, just have to keep trying)
Ribbonmoon: Not sure about this one. 3EG White x Ribbon Dancer checker? 3EG White x Silver Lunar Herald checker? Some other 3EG White with Spriter's Alts? Suggestions?
Giselle Brightly: 2G Silver Lunar Herald from Solstice (waiting for Silver Lunar Heralds to come around)
Peeta Lovebug: 3EG Sweetling x Solstice checker (I can breed this at Valentines)
Kirripop: 2G Green Nebula from Mistletoe (on my 3rd try, they keep turning purple)
Moonbow Mistletoe: 2G Silver Lunar Herald from Mistletoe (see above)

Valentine dragons:

Ocean of Roses: Currently using 2G Brown Copper from Rosebud, would use 2G Bronze Shimmer from Rosebud if I could get one.
Licht's Bee: Currently using 2G Gold from Arsani, but would use 2G Gold Tinsel from Arsani if I could get one.
Love Wandering: 3EG Skywing x Arsani checker, temp mate is 3EG Skywing x Pink checker. Got it!
Bee D'Houx: Currently using 2G Royal Crimson from Arsani, would use Holly from Arsani if I could get one.

Halloween dragons:

Tiny Candy: 6EG Pygmy x Pumpkin checker (not really looking for this, content to consider that lineage complete, but if I did run across one, I'd take it!)
Bonekisser: Current mate is Red Dorsal x Marrow, but would use another Marrow from Alt Sweetling, or Sweetling from Alt Sweetling x Marrow, or even a Sweetling from pink Sweetling x Marrow.
Illusory Thrill: Current mate is Black x Frill, but would use another Marrow from Frill if I could find one. Or if Frills are ever re-released, a 2G Frill from Marrow.
Brass Bone: Current mate is 2G PB Harvest x 2G PB Marrow; can breed 2G Silver Tinsel from Storm x 2G PB Marrow instead, like this.
Bersk D'Houx: Bred this to be a mate for Brass Bone but didn't like the combo, so now I'm trying to come up with a mate for him. Can't breed an exact match, but was thinking of doing 2G PB Marrow x 2G Gold from Heartseeker, like this, or a mirror with 2G Gold from Arsani x 2G PB Marrow, like this.
Sweet Murmur When I first grabbed this, we were still restricted to 2 of each Valentine dragon, so I let it gender at will, and it turned male. So a proper checker is impossible. Since Heartseekers can only be male, I can't do reverse checker or a 2-breed spiral with it, either. His current mate is a Royal Crimson from female Shadow Walker, like so, but I'm not really happy with that. I could breed/catch another Shadow Walker from Heartseeker, or do a spiral with a female Valentine dragon, Arsani or Rosebud (can't do Val09s because I don't have a CB)? I dunno, this guy is a real problem. Should have influenced it female regardless, but oh well!
Slinky Ramoy: 4EG PB Cavern Lurker
Aeo Jinsu Jung: 2G Holly from Desipis or?

Tinsel:

Joker Forbid: 2G Storm from male Silver Tinsel


(By the way, if anyone wants a 3G Silver Tinsel, just let me know. Currently, I can only breed a stair or a 3EG with a 2G PB Storm as a mate, but if I ever find a Storm from Silver Tinsel, I will breed checkers, too.)

I think I could produce a 3EG Arsani x Skywing offspring, to be a mate for Love Wandering!

And if you remind me, come Halloween, I *think* I can breed a 4EG PB Cavern Lurker!

Success! Sending a PM. :)

Thank you! It's perfect!

For your dragons with Gold Tinsel or Gold Shimmerscale in the lineage, I feel like Gold Lunar Herald might look good as mates. They have about the same level of shininess, and are pretty easy to breed.

Golden Wyvern males are a good 'match' for Gold Tinsel lineages, too, I think -- their shape and overall outline goes well with the Tinsel sprite.

Examples, because I got curious:

(ignore the egg colour!) Gold LH x Rosebud

GW x Arsani

(If you like the latter, you can have it; just let me know. Otherwise I'll keep or trade it.)

Oh, I hadn't thought of using Lunar Heralds in place of Shimmer-scales... The Rosebud's father is actually a Bronze Shimmer-scale (it's hard to tell in lineage view), but I bet a Bronze LH would work, too. I like the brown Copper because the roundness complements the round Shimmer, but the Lunar Herald's shape goes well, too. I might have to try breeding one and compare.

And, hm, the Golden Wyvern x Arsani looks nice, too. I can't decide between that and the Gold! If you don't mind, I'll take the GW egg and decide once I have two checkers to compare.

Thanks for the ideas!

GW is now on its way to you!

Thank you!
