Has anyone seen any? I have not seen even one themed in any of the areas, I thought oh maybe its just in the grove you can find theme but still nothing. I have attraction potions when clicked it says it has been applied already. I have not been doing well against enemies in the grove not sure why i changed some of my gear and it seems slightly better but still bad. Also if its only in the grove does that mean it is completely limited to only those who have gotten to it to get themed? that seems a little not nice to the low level players, just saying but I am unsure if I am just misreading something.

The WoL themed are not found as wild themes.
> older themes (eg, CC nixi, AE lup, etc) are in the diamond shop only
> new themes (DD puff, CR ryo) are obtained from
a) diamond shop
b) rare egg drop from wandering/random encounter WoL bosses in the Lost Grove (Queen of Hearts in Forest/caverns, other WoL named in Temple)
c) rare reward from combining set of candy hearts
Looking at your team, you seem to have some setup issues, which will probably be why you're having a bit of trouble.
You're running Light/fire/air, which can be a bit tricky to start off in the grove before pets are ranked (easier once they are ranked, since light has stronger healing), so you could consider swapping air or fire to a Tank element and running tank/light/attacker?
But with the current team:
Lucina, light
2hp/1int
>
As a light tank+healer, you want to go full-on into the Int/agi; Lightbringer gear and Reaver gear (most people suggest Pyro for light healer, but since she's also pulling Tank duties you'll want all-in on the agility.)
Natureguard armor is an equip for Earth Tanks, and is boosting her Strength rather than her Int, and she needs all the int she can get to have strong healing output.
Usually I'd say to go all-in on Int profs, but shes' a Tamed pet (so low base HP) and running both tank and healer, so she probably needs those hp profs currently.
MellowYellow, fire
2hp/1dex
>
As a fire attacker, you want full pyromancer gear (although until you get a vinethrorn relic, stick with the archon relic, since it is slightly stronger than an exotic pyro relic.)
Warden equips are for Earth Tanks, Primalists are for air attackers.
Disciple equips are very placeholder. not terrible, but not great.
A fire attacker generally has no HP investment, or one at most. They're there for damage dealing.
I'd suggest going 1HP/1Int/1dex, or 1hp/2int, if you really want to keep the hp prof. Either 3int, or 2int/1dex otherwise, but again, wild tamed/low base hp, and on a team with an unranked light healer-tank, keeping an hp prof is reasonable (if the pet is in slot 2 mostly- enemies aim preferentially in order, slot 1, then 2, then 3)
BlueBeard, air
2hp/1str
>
this guy has it roughest with equips
Relic- Illusionist relic (int/dex, used by fire attackers and light healers). Buffing the wrong damage stat
armor- Revenant armor (int/agi, used by Shadow and Light tanks), boosting the wrong attack stat and the wrong secondary stat
bracer1- Tidal Lord (str/agi, used by water tanks, or earth tanks), boosting wrong secondary stat
bracer2- Reaver (int/agi, used by shadow and light tanks), boosting both the wrong stats.
As an air attacker, you need Storm Caller gear for him (or Myrmidon failing that)
Same comments as fire pet for profs- I'd suggest 1hp/1str/1dex, or 1hp/2str, if you need the HP prof. 2str/1dex or 3str if not.
I sent over some items (unfortunately I just sold off all my exotics and all my VT relics and helms like, an hour ago, but I still had the bracers)

Ok I think this part of the news announcement confused me
"During this time, there will be a Double XP Event and all Wild Themed within the Lost Grove will have a doubled base rate of being encountered!
For the Themed Encounter Rate Bonus, it is a doubled increase chance on the base rate. This means that this will stack with the Perfume Bonus!"
So I expected there to be some themed pets to find oh well.
On the subject of my team thank you for sending me some items you did not have to but I appreciate it. I think I just really need to get more familiar with the fighting team part of the game and the equipment. thank you for all the tips.
I did have mellow yellow in the mid position and just changed it since Lucina kept dying quickly in that position.

The themes affected by the boost are the Lost Grove themes, rather than WoL-specific themes (although sometimes, like with patriotic event's Blazing Fireworks themes, there are event themes in the grove to encounter.)
LG themes have a naturally very low encounter rate. Even with an event theme boost, cleared Forest and Caverns*, Ancient Grove Eggling item, fully ranked Tracker's Hut, and LG perfume, the encounter rate is still pretty low, so as to maintain their rarity (since unlike fest themes they're available all the time)
(*sylesti mob encounter rate rises as you progress through the lg stages, giving a higher chance to find sylesti rather than non-sylesti mobs)

Hmm it's been a bit since I played last. I seem to remember only having themes during events so that is probably why I am confused. Or I just never came in contact with a wild themed befor.

> LG themes only appear in the lost grove (in the area specific to whichever theme- forest has two themes for the 16 species that are found there, caverns has the same, 2 themes for each of the 16 species, and temple has only one set of themes, but has all 22 species.)
They have very low encounter rate
> Seasonal Festival themes appear wild only in the Fest Zones
They have a decent encounter rate
> non-festival Events may or may not have themes that can appear wild in the Lost Grove (typically just the Patriotic event's Blazing Fireworks, but there's was also the Frostkeeper and Dawnbreaker aeridini a few years back)
They tend to have a higher encounter rate than the LG-native themes, I think?
(I'd guess lower than fest zone themes, but rather higher than the LG themes? Obviously it's a bit hard to tell since there's also a boost to the base theme encounter rate because of the Event)
