From El’s Extreme Anglin’ (Catching Furious Crawdads and Mr. Pinchy):
Mr. Pinchy is an exceptionally rare catch from Highland Mixed Schools, first found by Roopert and confirmed by El. ((Mr. Pinchy is assumed to be a reference to Homer Simpson’s pet lobster of the same name in The Simpsons.)) Mr. Pinchy is classified as rare and is bound to you on pickup, so be very careful when using automatic loot/re-cast.
Someone will always manage to cast a line and pull Mr. Pinchy straight out. Or catch two from the same pool. But the overall “catch rate” seems to be in the order of 0.2%: On average, just two out of a thousand catches will be Mr. Pinchy. Since you’ll struggle to get more than 50 catches an hour, expect to invest a lot of time to catch this.
Mr. Pinchy will grant three wishes, with a two day “cooldown” between wishes. The description reads:
“Use: Speak with Mr. Pinchy and be granted a Wish! Maybe something good…maybe something bad…Mr. Pinchy does not know!”
Using Mr. Pinchy triggers the spell cast “Make a Wish”. The confirmed results of this cast are randomly one of:
- Benevolent Mr. Pinchy: Summons a level 70 non-elite guardian which assists you in battle. 10 minute duration.
- Gift box with up to 5 Super Healing Potions and 5 Super Mana Potions.
- Magical Crawdad Box containing a Magical Crawdad non-combat pet.
- Mr. Pinchy’s Blessing: Health increased by 1200. This effect persists through death and is considered a flask. 2 hour duration.
- Furious Mr. Pinchy: Level 70 non-elite attacks you and your party. Furious Mr. Pinchy has 5560 HP and is killed quite easily. Corpse cannot be looted.
Just a bit ago I catched a [item]Mr. Pinchy[/item] ^^ It’s pretty cool, considering the rarity (I think?).
On my server I’ve only seen one person ever with the pet. As soon as I arrived to Shattrath I tried using one of the charges, ended up with a Benevolent Mr. Pinchy (the first picture of this entry). Now I gotta wait two more days to see if I can get one of the pets ^^
