Clanking Scrapsorter
Drops from Malfunctioning Beastbot. The machinists of Mechagon may automate many of the tasks of the city, but they also spend a lot of time repairing and maintaining their inventions. Mechanical type. If the pet you want to capture has 'Explode', just retreat from the battle and return to it.
Clanking Scrapsorter is a wild pet from Battle for Azeroth found in Mechagon, obtainable through pet battles near Rustbolt or as a secondary pet inside Operation: Mechagon.
Guide awaiting review
Search Near Rustbolt
Look for Clanking Scrapsorter as a wild pet around the Rustbolt township area of Mechagon — avoid the bay and water side, as pet battles rarely appear there. It can show up as a third pet in a battle, so engage any wild pets you find nearby.
Try Operation: Mechagon
Enter Operation: Mechagon solo — no group is required. Clanking Scrapsorter can appear as a secondary pet during battles near the instance entrance. If no pets are visible, leave, right-click your portrait to reset the instance, and re-enter to check again. Alternatively, complete a Heroic run of the Workshop and battle the large number of pets that appear in the city section after finishing.
Handle Explode Ability
If the Clanking Scrapsorter you encounter has the Explode ability, retreat from the battle and return to it — its abilities will shuffle, and Explode may be replaced by Omni Pummel, making the capture easier.
Check Malfunctioning Beastbot
If you prefer to skip wild pet hunting, visit Malfunctioning Beastbot at 60.8, 42 in Mechagon to see if a purchasable option is available there.
Tips
Pets in the city part of Mechagon respawn shortly after being killed, so you can defeat them repeatedly to get a fresh ability setup without resetting the instance.
