# Monkey — Anime Apocalypse Pet

**Rarity:** rare
**Credibility:** tier_1_faq_forum · **As of:** 2026-05-13

## Effect

+5 Speed · +3 HP — bottom Mythical-pack pet, fodder for storage.

## Notes

**Monkey** is the bottom Mythical-pack pet — only Speed + HP, no Coins / Drops / DMG. Strictly worse than Tiger and every other Mythical-pack pet.

## Stats (Foong, 2026-05-10)

| Lifesteal | Drops | Coins | DMG | EXP | Speed | HP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| — | — | — | — | — | 5 | 3 |

## Verdict

Monkey holds zero meta value. Open it from pet packs for collection completion only.

## Acquisition

Monkey drops from the **Mythical Pet Pack**.

## IP attribution

The Mythical pet pack groups pets by anime-IP silhouette (per docs/05-units-heroes.md §1.2.1). The exact source IP for Monkey is not pinned in Tier 1 — the docs §2.5 Tier 2 pet table does not enumerate Monkey as a stat row beyond what Tier 1 already gave (because Monkey carries the lowest aggregate stat in the Mythical pack and Tier 2 aggregators omit it). Treat the visual as a generic *Naruto*-adjacent monkey-summon styling without a confirmed character mapping in docs.

## Where this pet shines

Monkey does **not** appear in any docs/05-units-heroes.md §1.2.3 Meta verdict slot. The Meta verdict singles out **Colossus Titan > Igris** as the universal top pet and **Shield Titan** as the lifesteal-only pick — Monkey is mentioned nowhere in the Tier 1 Foong Meta Build threads. With only +5 Speed and +3 HP and **zero** Coins / Drops / DMG / EXP / Lifesteal, Monkey has no functional build niche.

The only listed use is **collection completion** for the Mythical Pet Pack — once a [Tiger](/pets/tiger/), [Kurama](/pets/kurama/), [Panda](/pets/panda/), or [Igris](/pets/igris/) drops, retire Monkey to storage.

## Pack family

Per docs/05-units-heroes.md §1.2.1, the **Mythical Pet Pack** contains 5 pets — Igris, Kurama, Panda, Tiger, Monkey. Monkey is the bottom of the stat ladder by every measure shown in the Tier 1 table.

| Mythical-pack pet | Stat headline |
|---|---|
| [Igris](/pets/igris/) | 2% Lifesteal / +12% DMG / +15 HP — only Lifesteal in the pack |
| [Kurama](/pets/kurama/) | +15% DMG — highest flat DMG in the pack |
| [Panda](/pets/panda/) | +12 Speed — highest mobility in the pack |
| [Tiger](/pets/tiger/) | +5% DMG / +7 Speed |
| **Monkey** | +5 Speed / +3 HP — nothing else |

## Acquisition & rarity

Per docs/05-units-heroes.md §1.2.1 Mythical Pet Pack table, Monkey's full stat bundle is +5 Speed and +3 HP — every other column is blank. The frontmatter logs **rarity: rare**. Drop-rate percent is unverified per docs §1.6 (Tier 1 ability rarity table is partial; Mythical pet pack drop rates are not in the public Tier 1 data dump).

## Synergies & comparison

Per docs/05-units-heroes.md §1.2.3 Meta verdict and §2.5 Tier 2 pet table, **no documented build pairs Monkey with any ability**. Compared to [Tiger](/pets/tiger/) (the next-up Mythical pet), Monkey loses on every column — Tiger has +3% Coins / +5% DMG / +8 HP that Monkey lacks. Tiger is itself strictly worse than [Kurama](/pets/kurama/) and [Panda](/pets/panda/), so Monkey sits 5th of 5. If you must use it temporarily, pair only with low-cost starter abilities like [Zorro](/abilities/zorro/) while waiting for a [Kurama](/pets/kurama/) or [Igris](/pets/igris/) drop.
