Pets are great. They give us companionship, affection, and someone to come home to. However, taking care of pets can be difficult. They need to be fed, cleaned up after. treated well, and need regular medical checkups to keep them healthy. The cost of this can be pretty high depending on the animal, and particularly larger pets like cats and dogs need space to move around to ensure they don't get bored or neurotic. This is where the virtual pet comes in. Virtual pets, aka digital pets, artificial pets, or (more commonly) v-pets, are a sub-genre of the Raising Sim, where the player is able to interact one-on-one with each pet. At its core, it's a type of game where the objective is caring for an animal like in real life, but without the possibility of harm for a real, living thing. They take up little space; most will fit in your pocket. The cost of maintaining one are minuscule as well - just your time and whatever power source they need, usually batteries. The other major advantage is that the consequences of negligence are minimal. Even if the player fails somehow and their pet "dies", it can be reset and started over. The accuracy of taking care of a virtual pet compared to a real one is on a sliding scale between almost-perfect (requiring feeding, grooming, affection, cleaning poop and trips to the vet to keep them alive) and all-fun with no real responsibility (keeps the playing and maybe feeding without the possibility of failure). Early virtual pets attempted to aim for somewhere in the middle with a slight lean toward accuracy. More recent entries have had a general shift toward the fun end, but continue to occupy the full spectrum. Usually involves Mons, even the ones that include "real" pets. Might overlap with a Life Simulation Game or Breeding Sim. Examples |

Digimon: Originally a boy's spinoff of the Tamagotchi line, it was created when Bandai realized that Tamagotchi pets were more popular with girls. Basically the same, but lets the player fight against other Digimon owners. It spawned a multimedia franchise that's lasted for nearly 20 years. | |

Pokémon Sword and Shield has the campsite minigame where you can interact with and feed your Pokémon. Rather than just giving them food, you and your team will work together to make curry which can increase experience, heal, and improve friendliness.

In Turning Red, Mei has a Tamagotchi that she takes with her everywhere, and which she names Robaire Jr. after her favourite member of the Boy Band 4*Town. At the end of the film, it's revealed that her mother Ming's red panda spirit has been sealed inside it since there weren't many other containers available, and Ming has to regularly feed it like a typical Tamagotchi. Fittingly, the movie takes place in 2002, when Tamagotchi toys were still popular. | |

Early in Azumanga Daioh, Kaorin learns that Sakaki can't keep any pets at home because her parents are allergic, and suggests that she buy a "P-Pet" instead.

Phantasy Star Online introduced MAGs to the series, Robot Buddies that could be fed items from the player's inventory. The items you feed a MAG affected their stats, which are passed on to the player: a high Defense stat for the MAG bolster's the player's Defense, for instance. Their stats also determine what evolution they undergo upon reaching certain level thresholds, which also determine the Photon Burst ability they can use. While MAGs cannot starve or die, keeping them well-fed will also confer additional benefits, such as periodic heals or attacking your enemies for you. | |

A Toy Story-themed digital pet was released that allowed players to take care of an alien (similar to the alien toys in the Pizza Planet crane game from the movie), along with an alien dog or an alien bird. Players fed the alien pet pizza, maintained its environment by keeping the ship oxygenated and the air filters clean, and entertained it with a radar-based UFO-fighting minigame. Neglect resulted in the pet being abducted by the "claw". | |

Pokémon-amie: A minigame introduced in the sixth generation games. It lets the player interact with their creature by feeding, petting, playing minigames, making faces, and talking to them. Maxing out Affection makes your 'mon occasionally dodge attacks, tank hits, or shrug off status effects while gaining more experience from battles. It's not strictly necessary, but Eevee only evolves into Sylveon if its Affection in Pokémon-amie is at least 2 hearts. Later upgraded to "Pokémon Refresh" in the seventh generation, where in addition to the original petting and feeding features, you have the ability clean and groom them after getting dirty in battles and also to treat Pokémon with status effects. However, the mini-games were taken out since Poké Puffs were replaced with Poké Beans. | |
