Dungeon Defenders

Storing them means having them in your inventory, regardless of whether they are equipped or not. Each pet you need to collect is of a certain "type". Each type, like tigers for example, can have a range of names, stats, and colors. The only thing that matters is the type. ANY tiger counts.

The pet types are: Gryphon , Tiger , Dragon , Chinese dragon , Steam Robot , Laser Robot , Hamster , Fairy , Imp , Genie , Hawk , Apprentice Animus , Huntress Animus , Squire Animus , Monk Animus , Apprentice Guardian , Huntress Guardian , Squire Guardian , and Monk Guardian.

Note : These are NOT all the pets in the game , but rather the ONLY ONES you NEED for the achievement.

The easiest/fastest ways to get common pet types (Hawk, Chinese dragon, Dragon, Tiger, and Gryphon) is to play the compaign and challenges and check the shop after each level.

Another way , to get all the pets other then the animuses and guardians, is to play levels on Survival Mode. In Survival Mode, the player will be rewarded a pet upon starting the 15th wave, regardless of the difficulty and the pet will appear in the item box.

Griffon - Rewarded for reaching wave 15 of Survival on The Deeper Well
Tiger - Reward from: Wave 15 of Pure strategy/survival on Castle Armory
Dragon - Reach wave 15 of The Summit on Survival/Pure Strategy
Chinese dragon - Reach wave 15 of Magus Quarters on Survival.
Steam Robot - Obtained by reaching wave 15 of survival on Foundries and Forges
Laser Robot - Rewarded for reaching wave 15 of Alchemical Laboratory or The Throne Room on Survival/Pure Strategy
Hamster - Reward from reaching wave 15 Survival/Pure Strategy mode on Servants Quarters
Fairy - Rewarded for reaching round 15 of Survival/Pure Strategy on Royal Gardens
Imp - Acquired by reaching wave 15 of survivor/pure strategy on the Endless Spires map
Genie - rewarded for reaching wave 15 in the Hall of Court on Survival mode
Hawk - Reach wave 15 of The Ramparts on Survival/Pure Strategy
Guardians - Complete The Summit on any difficulty, you will get a guardian of the class you played
Animus - Complete The Summit on Insane diffuculty with the desired class or buy in the shop for 15 million after playing Glitterhelm Hard (thanks Zero Judgement for this tips) or complete Ramparts Insane with the desired class (thanks VivaFathom for this tips).

Note: the hamster Spanky (from Glitterhelm) does not count towards this achievement as it's bugged at the moment and isn't classed as the type hamster. You need to collect an other hamster for the achievement.
The Darkbot (from wave 15 on Survival or Pure Strategy on the Throne Room) doesn't count towards the achievement either (thanks BioFire64 for this tips).

If you do not get the achievement/accomplishment when you have gather them all, go to the tavern and drop them all to the ground and pick them up, You do not need to do this in a large bunch and can throw them one at a time. This is done to attempt to get the game to register that you have collected that pet, in case it did not the first time.

(Source: Dungeon Defenders wiki, myself and comments to this solution)

This requires that you have all pet types either in your storage or on your Hero at once (if you have one, sell it, it won't count). The pet types are:

Laser Robot - "Attacks your opponents with laserbeams shot from its eyes." Can be bought in the Tavern or obtained by reaching wave 15 on "Alchemical Labratories" or "The Throne Room" (however, it's been reported that the one from "The Throne Room" doesn't count towards the achievement)

Hamster - "Attacks your opponents with bursts of hammy love." Can be bought in the Tavern (extremely rare) or obtained by reaching wave 15 on "Servants Quarters" or "Glitterhelm Caverns" (however, it's been reported that the one from Glitterhelm does not count towards the achievement)

After obtaining all pets, if you do not unlock the achoevement, try dropping all pets in your Tavern (make sure you're in local play or have Tavern Lock on), and pick them all up again.

All the pets for this achievement can be purchased from the Tavernkeep Shop. However, certain types of pets are more common than others. In some cases, a few of the pets below do not appear very often in the shop.


Tavern Shop

Items are restocked when the player completes a map.
Survival mode restocks the item shop after every 5 rounds
Failing a map does not restock the item shop.

The easiest/fastest way to get common pet types (Hawk, Serpent, Dragon, Tiger, and Gryphon) is to play Assault (Challange of Endless Spires) on Easy diffculty then look at the shop.

From experience: The chance of a (rare) pet to appear in the shop will increase if you play on later maps at a high difficulty ( example: Summit and Bonus Glitter-helm Cave on Insane) Throughout my game time in D&D , I've seen the shop offering fairies and genies.
