Sadly renaming it does not work. But i got a cool wolf, with a lame name.
Definitely a different take on the tamagotchi, would have like a bit more focus on the pet and tending to it other then it just grows after battles. But it does what it is suppose to.

The trick to renaming is to press the "Accept" button afterwards. And you talk to the Beast Vendor (the NPC to the right) to train and give your pet elemental attacks.
