Note: this page is for the regular critter version. For the battle pet version, see: Gerride Danzante.

These small, brown-gold water strider critters are found on various waterways and ponds around the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. As Zardas2 has reported, they also occur in the new BG.

When MoP was released, they actually phased out once you started the Golden Lotus quests. This was fixed in 5.2. They remain sparse, much less frequent than the Eternal Striders, but they're usually present somewhere.

To those of you that are phased and for the Dancing Water Skimmer and want to get your achievement you can get a friend that has done 0 quests in the vale to use Bocconcini Nordici on one and he can bring it to you in a unphased area, this just worked for me.

Commento di uriahworld

Spotted some of these in the river/pond between Setting Sun Garrison and Mistfall Village.

For those wondering where unphased areas are, easiest way is to run around with your unphased friend in a group until you see each other. I tried areas that were listed on the achievement page (just east of Whitepetal Lake, north of Tu Shen burial grounds), but all of those areas were phased out for me. Then we tried the gate entrance to the Vale on the western side of the map. It was a long way to run, but with a macro I was able to get the achievement with no issues.

They can also be found in the new battleground Temple of Kotmogu.

If you, like me, have trouble finding these in Vale of eternal blossoms I would suggest that you go over and start batteling Golden Civet's and Golden Civet Kitten's. These are also found in the Vale and are located in the northeastern corner between the 2 temples (Shrine of the two moons and Mogu'shan palace). I've found quite a few as "addon" pets there.

Sweet, just got the love achivment. without really going for it i was able to /love the dancing water skimmer even while phased out from it, how you may ask. i was just doing some pokemon batteling in vale of eternal blossoms when i cought the dancing skimmer (note it was a second pokemon) and i thought maybe it will work if i love this pet of mine now and it did ^^

Commento di 1045885

can also be captured in pet battles in vale of eternal blossoms. then simply summon it and /love it.

Commento di Cyendia

Another alternative if you've already phased the zone...

After the zone phasing, I got a Dancing Water Skimmer as a second in a pet battle. After capturing it, I was able to summon it as my companion and /love it for achievement credit.

Commento di Ivanetta

Found out today that these skimmers become visible in Vale after you turn exalted with Golden Lotus and complete Il potere finale

Commento di Doomgrip

If you are phased and unable to see these critter there is a trick involving an "unphased" druid if you don't have any Critter Bites at your disposal:

Using the Glyph of Charm Woodland Creature an "unphased" druid can cast Charm Woodland Creature on a Dancing Water Skimmer and bring it back to you in an area where you are in the same phase. You can then /love the companion to advance the To All the Squirrels I Once Caressed? achievement.

Commento di aspasito

Confirmed. If you capture a "secondary" Dancing Water Skimmer pet while phased and cannot see them, and summon and love your own pet, it does count for the achievement. Obviously same goes with a friends summoned pet, if your pets are not at enough level.

Commento di xtina

After reaching exalted with The Golden Lotus and while doing the quest The Might of Three the area phases so these critters are visible on the water in front of Mogu'shan Palace

Commento di adalberi

I have leveled a couple of battle pets to 25 and captured Dancing Water Skimmer (battle version). I then summoned it, and /love and it did count for the achievement.

So if you level battle pets then there is no need to play with critter feed or PvP to get it.

Commento di Farisin

These are replaced by Eternal Strider once you start questing in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. For those of us that don't care to level our wow pokemon, the easiest way to get To All the Squirrels I Once Caressed? is to go into the Temple of Kotmogu. At the south-central area of the battleground, there is a pool full of them. Caress them gently, now.

Commento di 827636

Easiest way to get this pet for the Achievement is to capture it in a Pet Battle then summon it and /love. If you aren't into pet battles ask someone who is, since it is not a hard pet to get. If they summon their pet for you, you can /love it. Easy!

Commento di immortalcatz

If you still can't find them. It works if you use your own dancing water skimmer caught form a secondary pet in pet battles. I was curious and decided to try using the one I caught. After summoning mine I did the /love and it worked.

Commento di mek002

My friend need this little guy for achievement so being am the only person she knows that is a pet battle freak . I went out to whitepetal lake and got one using 3 level 23 pets i ended up with a green version.

note Im ex with G.lotus

Commento di adorina

Found my rare version (health/balance) as a secondary pet to an eternal strider at the summer fields in vale of eternal blossoms.... near Grand Master Tamer Aki.

Commento di Eclipsegirl

Today, the first day of 5.2 I found the the Dancing water skimmer in the middle of Whitepetal lake.

The quests I was given were
The Moving Mists
Fiery Tongue, Fragile Feet
A Weighty Task
Stick in the Mud

Commento di saxchic

Fishing saved my life (didn't have to die in the Temple of Kotmogu battleground) and helped me finish A tutti gli animali di cui mi sono preso cura!

I just found the dancing water skimmer (non battle pet version) in abundance during the daily fishing pool spawn event (added in 5.2). This one was for the jewel danio in the pond outside Mogu'shan Palace.

The last one I needed to /love. <3

Thanks for making the return in 5.2 little guys!

Commento di Ndoki

For all those who don't like pvp and can't see them in the vale I have another suggestion.

If you start a pet battle with ANY creature in the vale there's a chance that a dancing water skimmer will join as a secondary pet. If it doesn't just leave (or finish the battle) and retry until you see one.

When you see one as a secondary pet, type /tar dancing and hit enter. You should hear the sound effect for selecting something. Then type /love.

Achievement get.

Commento di Ardinur

As of 5.2, these can be found in the Vale even if you have done lots of quests there. So no need to to to extreme lengths to /love these anymore.

Commento di neoshade75

After the changes to the Vale of Eternal Bloosoms, you can find these at 33.58,64.73.

Commento di Pryxangel

Blizz should rename these to Dancing Sha Skimmer instead. :)
You can find some of them around 71.31 in Vale of Eternal Blossoms.

Commento di IIIPlasmaIII

Fun fact:
These can be tamed for a short amount of time using Sparageyser degli Shandaren and blasting them with water. If you run far enough away, they will return to their normal patrol positions.
