What Are Adopt Me Trading Values?
In Adopt Me!, players collect, lift, and trade pets. Each pet has a community-recognized trading value based on:
-
Rarity: How rare or limited a pet is
-
Demand: How many players want it
-
Availability: Was it from a discontinued event?
-
Version: Base, Neon, and Mega Neon affect value
Values aren’t set by the game developers but by the players. They change over time, especially during updates or events.
How the Trading Economy Works
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Base Value | Standard value of a pet |
| Neon Value | Increased value when pet glows (Neon) |
| Mega Neon Value | Highest value variant |
| Demand | How often players trade/request the pet |
| Supply | How many are available in the game |
Pets with higher rarity and low supply (like discontinued event pets) are often worth more. Neon and Mega Neon versions are almost always more valuable than base versions.

How Values Are Determined
Unlike fixed prices in many games, Adopt Me values come from player economics — thousands of trades inform value charts used by traders.
Core factors include:
-
Age of the pet: Older eggs produce higher value pets
-
Event exclusivity: Pets from limited events usually rise in value
-
Neon/Mega Neon status: Increases barter value significantly
-
Supply vs demand: Less available pets command higher trades
Community-tracked data is shared in trading servers and aggregator websites to help players make fair trades.
Geography of Trading Experiences
Adopt Me’s player base is global, but trading practices can vary by region:
| Region | Typical Trend |
|---|---|
| North America | High player activity, fast value shifts |
| Europe | Stable trading communities |
| Asia | High volume of neon and mega trades |
| Other regions | Growing communities, diverse trading behaviors |
Regions with larger active player groups often show more dynamic value changes, especially for popular pets.
Risks Around Trading Values
Even though trading values help players make fair exchanges, there are criticisms and risks:
-
Value inflation: Some sites may manipulate values to favor certain pets or “value influencers” in the community (unofficial opinions exist).
-
Trade pressure: Many players feel values make trades less fun and more transactional.
-
Different value sites: Values can vary between sources (e.g., “elvebredd” vs others), leading to confusion.
Important: Values are community estimates they are not official game data from Uplift Games.
Trading Values Over the Years: Comparative Table
| Category | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 (Current) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shadow Dragon | High | Higher | Highest |
| Bat Dragon | High | Higher | Very High |
| Frost Dragon | Medium | High | High |
| Rare Pets | Stable | Slight shifts | Slightly up |
| Uncommon | Moderate | Moderate | Stable |
Values generally rise for discontinued and limited pets, while common pet values remain low.
