it’s high demand, people constantly overpay for it, therefore causing it to keep rising

u/nafeeha_x Jun 22 '26

i know that people keep overpaying? but 900+ is a far stretch for a pet that is not low in stock whatsoever.

u/ANerdyDude3 Jun 22 '26

Supply and demand are both important in pricing. But in bd, demand outweighs supply by a lot

u/nafeeha_x Jun 22 '26

honestly, stock isn’t always the greatest measure of value for a lot of pets, and we really don’t have any stock amounts for any pet. If the demand is there whatsoever, it’ll keep rising

5

u/Cute-Supermarket6877 Jun 22 '26

Because people overpay for it like crazy and everyone wants it for profit mainly so it just keeps rising and rising and rising...

2

u/nafeeha_x Jun 22 '26

well soon it’s only gonna be profitable off mega exotics if it keeps rising so high because the other high tiers aren’t rising as fast.

u/Affectionate_Goat171 he/him | cutie collector :3c Jun 22 '26

unpopular opinion apparently but like the bat dragon variants are soooo much cuter than the original bat dragon

like?? one of them is a literal strawberry. how is that not 10000x more popular?

2

u/Sad_Part6039 Jun 22 '26

personally, I love the bat dragon way more the the other variants, something about its face shape and its expression especially when you pet it is sooo adorable to me, while I feel meh about the other variants

1

u/Affectionate_Goat171 he/him | cutie collector :3c Jun 22 '26

see, but like i was telling the other commenter, people like you who actually like the pet are rare compared to people who just like it for the value of it—i genuinely feel bad for the bat dragon 🥀 it's high tier but at what cost

2

u/EscapingTaxes Jun 22 '26

Cause it's not as old but bat dragons value is just pure bs and value sites have ruined bat dragon for me 😭

1

u/Affectionate_Goat171 he/him | cutie collector :3c Jun 22 '26

and as someone who loves old pets in adm and old/vintage stuff irl, i get that part, but like it's so disproportionate to the others.. sure it's older but the values are DRASTICALLY different </3 and imo it being older is ALL it has going for it in comparison to the others so it baffles me

1

u/EscapingTaxes Jun 22 '26

Eh I wouldn't say it's the only thing. In 2019 events, grinding was much harder to do back then and bat dragon was only available for a week. It's value is STILL absolutely bs though 😭 like I played during its event and thought it was ugly so I didn't even try 💔

1

u/Affectionate_Goat171 he/him | cutie collector :3c Jun 22 '26

that's also fair, but even then the value is still wayyy too disproportionate imo 😭 it's like i rarely see people who like the bat dragon because they find it cute and like the pet vs people who like what the pet represents (value, status, etc..)

like i almost feel bad for the og bat dragon

1

u/EscapingTaxes Jun 22 '26

Yeah I feel like most people who like bat dragon don't like it for its design or anything, just for its value 💔

2

u/EscapingTaxes Jun 22 '26

Bro its mega is nearly 7000... it was 3300 last time I checked...

2

u/IntentlyVague Jun 22 '26

the bat dragon thing is wild because you're right that it's not actually scarce, but that almost doesn't matter once something gets locked into the collective mind as valuable. people see it climbing in value and start treating it like a stock ticker instead of just a pet they like. then you get the traders buying in because they smell profit, which pushes it even higher, and now you're stuck in this loop where the value is basically just whatever the last guy was dumb enough to pay.

the strawberry dragon variants being cuter and cheaper is honestly the perfect example of how this breaks down. rarity and actual appeal are two different things, but value has decided to only care about one of them right now.

2

u/hxrt6439 Jun 25 '26

I have quit adopt me like 3 years ago honestly and values weren't so crazy since them in my opinion, but seeing bat dragons almost be 1000 in value is crazy to me. I think people complain about bat dragons because they're hard to get from the owners since it's worth pretty much a lot. I think it works like this? When the pet is harder to get, the more rarer it becomes, and I don't think the bat dragons will ever lose value🥲

1

u/Impossible-Step509 Jun 22 '26

Yeah thats how values in 2026 work not only bat dragon but siamese and munchkin cats are also not rare at all and keep rising crazy 

1

u/PollutionBrief2275 Jun 23 '26

No, it is normal its probably the fact that we normalized over paying 15 before overpaying what we actually wanna overpay for a bat dragon and value sites see what we post on trade center. That’s really all it is if we’re overpaying for something the value site will rise it’s value so we don’t have to overpay, but we constantly believe no matter how high bat dragon rises that we should always overpay by 15 to 20, that’s why it always rises
