Description
"The Pintabian is best known for its striking coat colors and Arabian heritage. As a relatively young breed, these fine horses gained popularity in Jorvik only recently.
The typical tobiano coat not common to the Arabian horse was established through planned crossing of tobiano horses with Arabians for several generations.
Apart from their color, the Pinto Arabian shares the Arabian's typical conformation, intelligence and will to please."

Trivia
- The G2 Pintabian uses the same model and animations as the G2 Arabian.
- When SSO first released the G2 Pintabian, they mistakenly called it the "Pinto Arabian" in game, yet there are no registries that recognize the breed by this name. This has since been fixed.
- Around the time of the G2 Pintabians' arrival to Jorvik, the G2 Arabian Thoroughbreds had their animations tweaked; now the two breeds share animations.[5]
- There was once a bug that if the player mounted a G2 Pintabian, their rider would sit very far up in the saddle. This has since been fixed.[6]
- For a long period in the game, the G2 Pintabians were noticeably faster than any other horse breed when jumping, giving players an advantage in racing and championships. In response to reports about the animation speed, Star Stable tweaked the G2 Pintabian's jump animation, now making them equal in speed to other horse breeds.
