Most of the time, 1P challengers use weapons that are already released the the general public, so we can test thsee weapons out. With 1P specific weapons, I think IDB uses a guess and check method, although I am no 100% sure.

They use a high level pet so that fights will last a while, an item that can steal more than once, and then steal all the items from the challenger. At least, that how I believe they do it. I have been wrong before...

As SirClucky said, you can steal all the items from an opponent with an item like Tornado Ring, but I also think it is possible to just search through the Neopets Image Database until you find it...Probably using Guess and Check searching...

Is it common to search through the database? I mean NeoItems doesn't catalogue them, so it might take a while.

But Tornado Ring is the main key, steal em all and then you can just "right click + properties" on thee images of the weapons in your fight Wink.
