I just created a new pet, RegirockerMoss. And previously, every time I created a new pet, that pet would appear at the very end of my pets everywhere on site: training, item usage, profile, pet page etc.
But this new pet jumbled things up, but only in some places. I hope I'm making sense.
For example, under the top menu bar, Personal -> Pets, every pet is in the correct order based on chronology. This is order is also correct on my profile as well as the pet page. This is what the order is supposed to be, based on the date I created each pet:

However, some places the order is now incorrect. That includes Riverside Training and any time I try to use an item like a book or food from my inventory. In those places, my pets appear in this order:

Now, it's not just that my my newest pet, RegirockerMoss, got punted into the middle of the list because the last 8 pets before her are appearing in reverse chronological order while the first two dozen pets are in the correct order.
I know it might not seem like much, but this is important to me in keeping track of my pets and being able to find them on a list. Plus in training and item use. I'll admit I'm a bit obsessive in that my oldest pets have to be the strongest with the newer pets being less trained - but now that's really hard to keep track of when my latest nine pets are randomly in reverse order. The same applies for item use. As I acquire books through quests and vending, the oldest pets get to read them first - so all I have to do is go down the list. But with the final nine pets out of order, it messes things up.
I have no idea why this happened, but I hope it can be fixed. (I wonder if it's connected to the wardrobe outfits not appearing chronologically/by outfit number, when some of the older outfits appear in random order.)
I again hope I made sense. Thank you.
Have you visited the pet order page and confirmed their order there? In the past, that has always fixed any wonky pet orders that have happened to me. Although I’ve never used the quick sort buttons, I always sort my pets manually.
I feel you on needing to have a specific order for them. Mine are also sorted by descending battle stats and AP and it would be frustrating if I couldn’t sort them the ‘proper’ way.
