| “ | Towards the end of the year, the plump and pleasant Yool schedules a relaxing sojourn on Cold Island. Its arrival is heralded by the jingle bells dangling from its antlers, and the booming resonance of its voice. Just being near a Yool produces feelings of peace and joy, so the other Monsters always try and convince it to stay the whole year round. | ” |
Description
Yool is a Seasonal Monster that celebrates the Festival of Yay season and is found on Cold Island. It was added on October 23rd, 2012 during Version 1.1.0. As a Seasonal Monster, it is only available at certain times. It is best obtained by breeding Thumpies and Congle. By default, its breeding time is 1 day and 12 hours long. Although Yool does not have good coin production when collecting once per day, when collecting multiple times it can rival other Monsters such as Ethereals or Quad-elements.
Yool can either be teleported to Seasonal Shanty once fed to level 15, or bred at any time with the combination of any two Aux. Seasonals (Gobbleygourd, Clavavera, Viveine, Jam Boree, Carillong, Whiz-bang, Monculus, Ffidyll, Spurrit). Yool has a decent coin production compared to other Monsters on Seasonal Shanty.
Song
Audio sample:
Voice actor: Dave Kerr (Cold and Gold Island), Eric De Val (Shanty)
Instrument: Jingle bells
VST: EastWest Hollywood Orchestral Percussion Diamond (Shanty), Unknown (Cold and Gold Island)
The Yool sings "Ho Ho Ho Ho" in a resonating baritone voice, as Santa Claus is supposed to do, and also shakes its head quickly to jingle the bells on its antlers.
Breeding
The Yool Monster can only be bred for a limited time during The Festival of Yay , occasionally out of season or anytime in the Seasonal Shanty:
Seasonal Shanty: The Yool can be bred with any combination of the following Monsters:
On September 12th, 2014 the breeding combination was changed. The old breeding combination for Yool (Deedge and Thumpies) was one of the combinations for Grumpyre; since they both had the same breeding time, it was impossible to distinguish the two monsters, as both of their speed-up times are 36 hours. The breeding combination change was made to eliminate this potential confusion.

Notes
- Yool's name is from the ancient pagan mid-winter festival, Yule, which was later absorbed into Christmas. Yule is short for Yuletide.
- Unlike most monsters, Yool only likes two decorations (on Cold Island), the Crumpler Tree and the Piney Tree. The same goes for the Shugabass.
- The Yool made an unofficial appearance in the Market during the Easter 2013 celebration, where it was available for purchase but without confirmation of successful breeding attempts. Officially, the Yool returned out of season with fanfare from April 30 until May 7, 2013 at noon ET. Confirmed to be available by breeding or purchase with diamonds (at an inflated price of 225).
- Being a Festival of Yay monster, the Yool has several Christmas themed names: Feliz, the Spanish word for "merry"; Frawst, a pun of "frost"; Groodolph, a pun on "Rudolph"; Kringle, and Kris, references to Kris Kringle, a name for Santa Claus; Mizzletoe, a pun on "mistletoe"; Nog, a reference to eggnog; Puddin, a reference to Christmas pudding; Reignur, a pun on "reindeer"; and Rudy, an abbreviation of "Rudolph".
- On December 2nd, 2015, the Yool was on sale for 75 and was for early access for 24 hours.
- On June 24, 2016, all Seasonal Monsters including Yool received an element. This addition of elements to Seasonal Monsters was not yet available in-game but was shown on a post My Singing Monsters put on social media. Each element design is based on the holiday the Seasonal Monsters are based of.
- So far, Yool has the second-highest breeding time amongst Seasonals, with the highest being Jam Boree.
- The word 'Yay' means 'a bow' or 'Sagittarius' in the Turkish language, possibly referring to the season's celebration time.
- It is also an interjection used dominantly in the English language that expresses excitement.
- Yool was the first Seasonal to be available on The Colossingum. It was also the first Seasonal to have an Epic form.
- Until Ffidyll was released and added the new verse, Yool used to play through the entire song on Seasonal Shanty. Previously, its contribution was very small in Cold/Gold Island, especially its jingle bell part.
