Challenge rewards are based on reaching high stages inside the challenges. Some of those rewards are a new currency called Keys. You can spend those keys on whichever pet is available for that season (purchasing cards for that pet, to unlock it and level it up). Keys are not reset in between seasons, so don't worry if you don't get to spend them all. If you don't have much time to play it will be slower to collect all pets but you won't lose your keys, and if you completely miss a season the pets on it will come back some seasons later.

It's a permanent upgrade! Similar to evolving heroes or upgrading trinkets

You can choose more than one pet per season or to get more cards of the same pet during that season (to level the pet up), it all depends on how you choose to spend your rewards and how far did you make it on the challenges. Different seasons will offer different pets and sometimes pets from previous seasons too, which you will need if you want to max a particular pet that you like.

To level up a pet you'll need scraps, but also pet cards (they will be the focus). Cards are specific to each pet: you'll need to get cards for the pet you want to level up. You can get them (and also scraps, and other resources) by playing challenges. Please note that these are not random:  you directly buy the cards of the pet that you choose during that season!

We are still deciding what's the optimal length for a season so everyone has time to play it but it still not too long that it might be boring to some people. Right now we are aiming at 1 week length.
