can you get Paw Naturel items from any of the vending machines? if so, which one(s)?

Not sure about the vending machines, but I got a few yesterday while I was doing all my quests. I didn’t make a note of who I got them from, if I get more today, I’ll edit this post with whose quest I was doing :)

Just got a couple from Nori's Quests :)

i don't think i can link to a news comment, but amber posted on the news that "The shop hasn't been added specifically (or excluded) to any vending machine yet! I want to wait for another round of items to throw in there before I do anything related to vending"

so, no vending paw naturel just yet!

I don't know if it's been allocated to a specific vending machine but I managed to get some Paw Naturel food items through Celebration Gift. I don't know about the other machines though.

maybe the item names included relevant keywords? i think celebration vends items with "green" in the name; there may be others

That could work, I mainly look into the types of items as keywords could be too specific. I just tried the Celebration Gift again today and received 4 Pet Naturel items out of the 250 limit (compared with 3 I received from yesterday) so it's relatively small.

I guess it's just a matter of trial and error at the moment until the shop does allocate with a particular vending machine.

ok then! thanks for the info

You could keep an eye on the Mystery box: https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/887200/MysteryBox-Daily-Ping-V3 There's also a better chance to get rare items from the Mystery Box since the vending rarity cap is low.
