About Lion
Lion is a Divine rarity pet in Grow a Garden, placed in the A-tier. As a A-tier pet it sits near the top of the pet roster, with abilities that hold up in most endgame setups. Its signature ability, Safari Roar, is what defines its role: shares cooldowns to all pets and applies random safari mutations..
Pets in Grow a Garden apply their abilities passively or on activation, and the right pet can dramatically speed up crop value growth or trigger valuable mutations. Lion's Safari Roar ability is the reason it holds its A-tier rating — pairing it with high-value crops and complementary mutations is where most of its value comes from.
How to get Lion
Lion comes from Safari Harvest. Hatch the corresponding egg during that source's availability window for a chance to obtain Lion. Event-tied eggs are often only available for a limited time, so if Safari Harvest is currently active it is usually worth stocking up on hatches before it rotates out. Once the event ends, Lion typically becomes only available through trading with other players.
