Pal Breeding Combinations in Palworld

Breeding certain Pals in Palworld uses a novel concept in which the offspring's species can be anticipated based on the unseen Power numbers assigned to each Pal species. Understanding this system is critical for achieving the desired Pal species by judicious pairings.

How to Obtain a Specific Pal Species through Breeding in Palworld

A thorough Reddit thread by user Blahable claims that each Pal species has an unknown Power number. The species of the offspring produced by breeding two Pals is determined by the game by combining these numbers. Interestingly, Pals with lower Power values are regarded as being more strong.

You have to aim for a specified average Power number for the parent Pals in order to breed a particular species of Pal. If you wanted a Kingpaca, for instance, you could select parent pairings such as Bushi and Mammorest, Penking and Nitewing, or Vanwyrm and Relaxaurus.

Because there are so many possible breeding combinations in Palworld, it's best to use a Palworld calculator tool, like Kimpton's Palworld Breeding guide to figure out which pairings will result in the desired Pal.
