My first pet goal was to get a Blacklight Archan which I got. I don't own him anymore but I do miss having one. They are so adorable.
My first pet goal was to get an Aeanoid. They're my favorite species and I had been saving up for a aeanoid seed for so long (back then they weren't 300K like they are now, they were around 15mill if I recall correctly). I remember back then when I was a noob, thinking I would NEVER get 15mill, and out of nowhere a user gifted me the seed. I jumped out of my chair, I was so happy.
So I painted him BR with the money I had saved, and ever since I've had my pet Explain :)
I remember really wanting a Spectrum and Galactic Fester (I joined after discovering the pet after all). I have them today and don't plan on giving them up any time soon. I fell in love with the old spectrum and galactic festers, but the new ones are even better!
...
The pet I wanted the most after joining the site was a Dark Matter Magnus. Thanks to a friend I got one quickly, and still have the pet with me. I'm going to be heartbroken when it gets a revamp since it still looks excellent in my opinion.
Other than that I remember wanting a Spectrum Telenine, but I don't care much for it now. Still have one, though.

I like reading through these topics :) My sister and I were zapping for Experiment when we first joined, after she made a neopets joke (if you look at the scribble 188 you might guess what the joke referred to...)
I remember my first two pet goals, actually! I had them both at the same time so I'll mention them.
I reaaaaally wanted an Aeanoid. I remember seeing them and deciding in that moment that I HAD to have one. When I got enough sP, I created a pet and planted it. If I remember right, it takes 3 days until your pet becomes an aeanoid? Yea I was so impatient. I even remember PiranhaPlant being a tigrean before it finally turned into an aeanoid.
An Angelic Darkonite. This was another pet that I fell in love with and Brittany is still one today. Fortunately, angelic potions were only around 8mil when I made her into one. I imagine this pet will be revamped at some point so I'm hoping she'll still look as gorgeous as she does right now!!
I think my first pet goal was making Zay into a Hydrus Torrey. She's not that now, of course. I remember it cost me about 6mil, I think at the time to complete the Uncharted Land Map. She was a Hyrdrus Torrey for a long time until the Chibi Lasirus was revamped.

Oooh man it's hard to think that far back..
If I remember correctly then when I originally joined Subeta, with a totally different account, my first goal was to get a bloodred serpenth. And this was back when they looked like this. I am... not entirely sure why I wanted one so much.
I eventually rejoined under this account, formerly called Leander -- I believe that my previous account had been deleted when the site was reset, though I can't completely remember anymore ?_? Anyway, before I decided that I wanted to recreate my oooold Neopets characters on here, I really wanted a bloodred clawsion! My clawsion had some terrible super long combination of Japanese words for a name and I had no plans for character beyond "he is edgy." It was a dark, dark time. Sometimes I kind of wish I still owned that clawsion, I'm curious if I would have ever managed to make something of him..

i think my first goal was to make my first pet, uninhibited (who does not exist anymore) nuclear. i remember back when the cost of a nuclear potion (which was less than it is now i think) felt like so much to me! then i had a goal to get a sheeta, which was simple enough. but my first really challenging goal was to get an angelic darkonite… i honestly don't even remember how i managed to get my hands on an angelic potion, i must have snagged one for really cheap somehow. then, after holding onto that angelic darkonite for several years, i realized i wasn't doing anything with her and i couldn't actually think of anything to do with her so i plopped her in the pound, and then someone adopted her and changed her species and color, and now someone has changed her name so she doesn't exist anymore either.
i feel kind of bad that so many of my old pets have fallen by the wayside like that, but they just weren't inspiring to me anymore and now i have new pets that i actually feel inspired to develop and work on.
My first goal was to make Ah-Dol (different name then) a pretty color. Any color. I was going to use the zapper. First time and I somehow screwed up and zapped Sakuya Kira into a Reborn Feli. Ah-Dol ended up going through a few color changes. Kira on the other hand stayed as he was until the Reborn Feli was revamped.
My second goal took ages for me to finish. I wanted to have a story I wrote for Paper Witch on its profile. My friend finally convinced me to actually put it up.

My first pet goal was to get an Angelic Serpenth, and I was graciously gifted by a user who gave me the Angelic Potion ❤️. Then when the came out, I wanted to turn Blackwater (a nightmare aeanoid when I adopted him from the AC) into one. I got lucky after 15 mil spent in zaps when he finally turned ^^
I think my first big goal was a Reborn Potion for Arien. Someone who was leaving Subeta actually gifted it to me.
I remember, I had two:
The angel devonti I can actually live without... I actually kind of preferred the version with the blue lines rather than the redone black line version. I trained a Rainyday Nebula top when it was first released for the marsh potion. I was still quite new to Subeta at that point and probably way underpriced the top but I don't care. The marsh celinox is one of my favourite pets on site - and I'm glad to have one C:
I'm pretty sure it was to make a pet I don't own anymore chibi. I was so proud when I saved up that 1 million. It was harder to get back then than it is now.
Don't you forget about me~
waaaay way back, when I first joined, all i wanted was a kerubi. i ended up getting one only a couple days and i was shocked at how easy it was. after that i was really after an angelic kumos, and i'm pretty sure i was able to adopt one off of someone.
My first goal was a bloodred keeto I believe

My first goals were a spectrum Kerubi and a spectrum Sheeta, both of whom I still have (Danni and Lillie respectively, though I believe Lillie's first name 8 years ago was "Lhi"). I really liked the limited edition and spectrum colored pets I guess? I always figured since they were limited edition that they'd be super hard to get but they really weren't.
My first pet goal was to get a Bloodred Telenine - which at the time was no small feat, as there were no Telenines available to create on the site, so the only way to get a Telenine was via elixir - there was one, just one, bloodred Telenine elixir on the whole site (Subeta was much smaller back then). It was over 1 million sP at the time, which, when you could buy a 1 month GA for 45k, should tell you something about how expensive that was. It took me a while, and the kindness of several other users willing to help and willing to part with that elixir, but I did achieve that goal. That bloodred Telenine is still with me today, that's Collar.
