An Awfully Big Adventure requires you to defeat 44 tamers using an Elekk Plushie as part of your lineup. The plushie doesn’t even have to participate or even be standing at the end of the battle but if you still need to level your little squishy, try my power-levelling circuit in just three battles.
Breeds will not be listed unless it’s important to the battle. If you don’t have a particular pet used in any of my strategies, just look for a pet with the same abilities.
Many of the strategies were derived from previous teams I’ve used since the introduction of pet battling so if you’ve been following my videos for a while, they may seem familiar. In the meantime, travel safe, and have fun!

Completing this monster of an achievement rewards you with Trunks. Don’t let his cute demeanour fool you, he’s quite the BEAST (despite being a magic pet).
Just remember to /wave at him for a cool little effect.
Be sure to let me know how you go (especially if any substitutions were used).
I don’t know about this one, WAY worse than the Celestial Tournament. Some of those aren’t even sure things for me with all three pets. I’ll start with the easy ones, lol.
Yes, definitely! When you look at the list it does seem overwhelming but I started with my six tamer levelling circuit in Pandaria. I also left some of the easier ones til last since they were out of the way – also great to do those earlier ones when I needed a break from some of the trickier ones.
Best of luck and at least we can take our time with this one :D
I see that you have pets listed, but not the actual strategies. Any chance at getting an update to this list?
The idea is to follow along with the videos once you’ve determined which pets to use i.e to plan what pets you have and any substitutions you can use in place of them. The strategies themselves weren’t listed here to prevent an extremely long post. I will see if I can do something about that (time permitting).
I wish I would have found this before I banged my head against the wall with the CT part of the Achievement lol.
I had a heck of a time with Sully using the Frog/Moth combo and yours is much, much better.
That’s great to hear. Hopefully my future strats will prove just as useful. :)
somehow i deleted this Quest, any idea where i can pick it up again?
You can track the achievement from the journal.
