Some strong lvl 25 pets to beat trainers. Follow this guide until you feel confortable with your new 25 pets.

You can optimize your route if you have:

Wormhole Centrifuge (Engineering only)

Ogre Waygates (from Mage Tower / Spirit Lodge Level 1)

Erris the CollectorAshleiVesharrTaraluneTarr the TerribleGargra

Craft or buy your Wormhole Centrifuge.

Use yourSafari Hat

Buff yout active pet with Pet Treat. Don't worry if it isn't your lvl 1 pet, the buff is applied on all pets in battle.

Set your team according with the enemy current setup, including one of your leveling pet.

Start with Erris the Collector. She is a NPC that randomly spawns on players' Garrisons. If you don't have her at yours, ask in trade chat if someone does and ask for invite.
She is very easy to beat with her lvl 23 pets. You will use your first leveling pet here.
You can face 5 differents setups:

Hint: If you're not sure when swapping pets, use a pet with Decoy so your low level pet is safe for one turn.

After beating her, your first leveling pet should now be at level 14.

Take flight path to Exile's Rise in Shadowmoon Valley.
- Use Spirit of Shinri and reach Ashlei.
- She's also very easy to beat, since one of her pets doesn't do nothing. Swap your second leveling pet when she is with her Doodle.

Her pets are: Pixiebell, Tally and Doodle
Your second leveling pet should be lvl 14, after defeating Ashlei.

I'm using Nexus Whelpling (1,1,1) and Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling (2,2,1).

Ashlei

Use your Garrison Hearthstone. Take flight path to Veil Terokk in Spires of Arak.

Now your pets are stronger and can take some hits, therefore you don't really have to use a specific setup to beat next trainers.
You'll now face off Vesharr. Two pets with Magic attacks will do the trick. I'd recommend a pet that can block/evade attacks because of Entangling Roots and/or Feathered Frenzy from Apexis Guardian. Leveling pet may be swapped on the first turn of the third pet.
I'm using the following setup:
- Nether Faerie Dragon (1,2,2)
- Father Winter's Helper (2,1,1) (He is pretty good against Apexis Guardian)
- Leveling pet.

Your first leveling pet should be 19 at the end of the battle

Vesharr

Take flight path to Retribution Point on Talador. We're going for Taralune and we'll use the second leveling pet.
Dragon pets will shine here also. Two Nexus Whelpling are pretty good to carry your leveling pet, just watch out so they don't kill third pet before you can send the carried one.
My current setup is the following:
- Silkbead Snail (2,1,2)
- Nether Faerie Dragon (1,1,2)
- Leveling pet

Your second leveling pet should now be at 19.

Taralune

It's time for some RNG! You'll be using your Wormhole Centrifuge and selecting Grassy plains.
If you end up high air, use Goblin Glider and go for Tarr the Terrible. You might have to mount up and go by foot.
We'll beat some murlocs now and you will surely need Undead pets.
I'm still looking for the best setup ever for this fight, but you might have success by using Ghostly Skull and Unborn Val'kyr. (Hey, it's not THAT hard to get her)

If you did defeat Tarr, one of yours leveling pet will be at 22 or 23.

Tarr

Look up, watch out for any trees and use Aviana's Feather. Face Frostfire Ridge and go on direction of Gargra.
You'll have to walk a little bit, but you'll be used to the best route.
Use your least leveled pet, In this case he should be at 19.
Two Mechanical pets should take care of the little pups.

After this fight, both your pets are at level 22 or 23.

Gargra

Now you only have to summon your leveling pet and use Flawless Battle-Training Stone on them.
Don't forget you've just gotten 3 from Erris and have enough Shiny Pet Charm to buy more if you are doing you Garrison's Daily Pet Battle.

Erris the CollectorAshleiVesharrTaraluneGargraTarr the Terrible

Set your Ogre Waygate to Frostfire Ridge. You can do this while you follow this guide for the first time.

Use yourSafari Hat

Buff yout active pet with Pet Treat. Don't worry if it isn't your lvl 1 pet, the buff is applied on all pets in battle.

Set your team according with the enemy current setup, including one of your leveling pet.

Set one: Spores + Dusty + Salad = weak to Magic, Magic, Aquatic
Set two: Nicodemus + Brisby + Jenner = weak to Beast, Beast, Beast
Set three: Sprouts + Prince Charming + Runts = weak to Aquatic, Flying, Mechanical
Set four: Moon + Mouthy + Carl = weak to Flying, Flying, Mechanical
Set five: Enbi'see + Mal + Bones = weak to Magic, Magic, Critter

Hint: If you're not sure when swapping pets, use a pet with Decoy so your low level pet is safe for one turn.

After beating her, your first leveling pet should now be at level 14.

Ashlei

Use Aviana's Feather and flight back to your garrison. Don't use Garrison Hearthstone.
Take flight path to Veil Terokk in Spires of Arak.

Now your pets are stronger and can take some hits, therefore you don't really have to use a specific setup to beat next trainers.
You'll now face off Vesharr. Two pets with Magic attacks will do the trick. I'd recommend a pet that can block/evade attacks because of Entangling Roots and/or Feathered Frenzy from Apexis Guardian. Leveling pet may be swapped on the first turn of the third pet.

Taralune

Use your Garrison Hearthstone. Access your Mage Tower and go to your previously set Ogre Waygate on Frostfire Ridge.
Walk a little and interact with Gargra.
Use your least leveled pet, In this case he should be at 19.
Two Mechanical pets should take care of the little pups.

After this fight, both your pets are at level 22 or 23.

Gargra

Now it's probably the most time consuming part. Go to the flight master and fly to "Pine's Root"*, the nearest Flight Point from pet trainer Tarr the Terrible.
Reach Tarr by foot and get his daily pet quest.
We'll beat some murlocs now and you will surely need Undead pets.

Fights detailedErris the CollectorMechanical Pandaren DragonlingDecoyBeastAshleiMechanical Pandaren DragonlingNexus Whelpling

Nexus Whelpling will start off and spam Frost Breath until Pixiebell dies.

She will send Doodle and you will change your pet for your leveling pet.

After her lovely elekk shows a heart, you will change to Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling.

Elekk will sleep and you will try to cast Bombing Run.

The ability, however, will hit Tally.

From now on you just spam Breath until the battle is won.

VesharrNether Faerie DragonFather Winter's Helper

Start off with Nether Faerie Dragon

Cast Moonfire, Arcane Blast and Arcane Blast. The Great Kaliri will be dead.

Change to Father Winter's Helper and cast Eggnog.

Cast Gift of Winter Veil as Apexis Guardian will be weaker to Magic.

Finish him off pamming Snowball. If he roots you, just clean again with Eggnog

Your Father Winter's Helper might die before killing Apexis Guardian, but this is even better. Finish him with any damaging ability from your leveling pet.

If your leveling pets didn't show up yet, now it's time to let him stand still for one turn, if not, change back to Nether Faerie Dragon.

Cast Evanescence, Moonfire, Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast. Your poor dragon can die before defeating him.

If this happens, your leveling pet should still be able to finish the enemy.

TaraluneSilkbead SnailNether Faerie Dragon

Start of with your leveling pet. He will soak the first Counterspell.

Change to Silkbead Snail and cast Dive

Spam Ooze Touch until Serendipity dies.

Try to cast Ooze Touch again, but the snail will die. Change to Nether Faerie Dragon and cast Moonfire

Finish him with Arcane Blast and cast Life Exchange on the first turn against Atonement.

Spam Arcane Blast to victory

Tarr the Terriblethis oneLil' SmokyMechanical Axebeak

Start with Lil' Smoky and cast Toxic Smoke and Missile. Keep Toxic Smoke always up until Wolfus dies.

Cast Sticky Grenade and use Missile. Fangra can't dodge granade and will probably die fast.

If your pet dies too soon, change to Mechanical Axebeak and finish with Alpha Strike.

When Wolfgar comes into play, swap for your leveling pet and let him take Howl.

Then, swap back to your bird and finish using Haywire and Alpha Strike. If you feel you can die, pop a Decoy.

Note we are not facing Cymre Brightblade at Gorgrond. She is not worth the time. The best way to deal with her pets is using Anubisath Idol and you can't mess a single turn. If you want to expand your experience gain, you surely can fight her. I'd recommend using Dark Iron Mole Machine at the entrance of your garrison, if you already did Garrison Campaign: Seismic Matters.

Remember this guide can be easier when you already have some level 25 pets.

If you follow this guide correctly and be used to the battles, you probably will end with sparing time with your buff. You can now go to Shrine of Seven Stars if you have it in your Hearthstone and start battling trainers in Pandaria. You might even level another pet to 25 before your buff expires. I didn't include this on the guide because there is already guides to help you with them.

Wasting a bit of time on Ashlei using a second max-pet, Mechanical Pandaran Whelpling can solo her, usually without even requiring the revive from its mechanical ability.

Open with Breath, drop Decoy (first turn is always moonlight, which hits for less), Breath until Pixie dies.
Thunderbolt Doodle, then spam Breath until Tally dies (can use Bombing Run, but the extra damage isn't really worth the wait).
Switch in your leveling pets and either use one of them to finish off Doodle or back to the whelpling.

Easy peasy. I have done this reliably so many times it almost feels like cheating.
