Palworld has conquered the world of gamers by bringing a wide variety of collectible monsters and weapons to be used in combat and exploration of the world. However, with hundreds of these critters scattered around, many players may end up wondering which are the best pals to capture and keep a strong composition in their team.
Fortunately, we're here to help you choose the pals that best suit your style of play and, to do so, we've selected the most skillful of each element provided by the Pocketpair company's game. Here we'll tell you which companions are worth investing in, whether you're a beginner, an average player or a veteran in this universe! Come and see if your favorite pets are among the best pals to capture!
Neutral: Paladius
Of all the types of pals in the game, the Neutral is currently the weakest. However, that doesn't mean that there aren't any monsters in this category among the strongest. If you're looking for a strong and versatile Neutral to make up your team, Paladius could be the perfect choice.
This pal is among the best pals to catch, ranking S among all the little monsters in the game. It resembles a centaur and wears a kind of armor reminiscent of the paladins in medieval stories, hence the name "Paladius". He is very useful for mining and collecting wood while at the base and his combat skills are also impressive.
It's a unique combination pal, which means it can only be combined with another Paladius to create a new Paladius. With him you can also move around as a mount, climbing on his back and this will make you capable of triple jumps. He's quite hard to catch, but he's considered legendary. If you're a beginner and still want a strong Neutral pal, other options for you could be Fenglope, Eikthyrdeer, Galeclaw and Lunaris.
Grass: Mossanda
If you're more into plant-based monsters, Pal Mossanda is the right choice for you. Like Paladius, Mossanda can also be used as a mount, which makes exploring the world much easier. And, when used as a mount, this little monster is capable of throwing grenades, causing significant damage to the enemy.
When at the base, he helps with planting, wood gathering, manual labor and transportation, making him one of the best pals to catch from the grass element. In terms of combinations, Mossanda can be used with Grizzbolt, Petallia and Rayhound, generating Mossanda Lux, Lyleen and Grizzbolt respectively.
This pal is also considered a rare monster, which will make life difficult if you're a beginner and want to have it in your collection. If that's your case and you still want to invest in grass companions, Lyleen, Lifmunk, Flopie, Caprity and Dinossom may be more accessible options.
Earth: Anubis
Anubis is an excellent choice among the best pals to capture from the Earth element. He is very good when it comes to combat, possessing very powerful abilities that make any attack from the player inflict Earth-type damage. He offers many battle features and is also useful when used at base to help with manual labor, transportation and mining tasks.
The combination with the Vanwyrm pal can result in the Faleris monster. Furthermore, obtaining Anubis is not as complex as the previous best elements. Many players invest in Anubis eggs to get them more easily. But if you want to have other equally good options, you can also look for Menasting, Eikthyrdeer Terra and Surfent Terra.
Electrical: Orserk
For those looking for the best electric pal, Orserk will be the perfect choice. The little monster has a very useful combat ability that causes an electric current to run through the wounds on the opponent's body, burning the place. When placed at the base, he can help by generating electricity, helping with manual labor and transportation.
It's an epic pal, which can make it difficult for beginners to capture. If this is your case, you can focus on Dinossom Lux and Relaxaurus Lux, which are also among the best pals to capture in the Electric element. Orserk is also part of the group of pals that are unique combinations and cannot be crossed with other pals to obtain new species. But he himself can be the result of a combination of Grizzbolt and Relaxaurus.
Water: Jormuntide
Jormuntide is not only an extremely strong pal, but also a central character in legends within the Palworld universe. Some say that he was once a sage who, after being thrown into the sea for a crime, returned and destroyed an entire nation. Whether this is true or not, he is still one of the best pals to capture from the Water element, even though he is also from the dragon element.
With him you can swim on his back, which will save you considerable time crossing the seas of the map and won't even use up your stamina. When at the base, he can help by watering your crops, all of which makes him one of the best pals to capture. However, this is also an epic pal, making it a bit tricky to access for beginners. For this group, it's interesting to invest in pals like Azurobe, Relaxaurus and Elphidran Aqua. The only possible combination of Jormuntide is with Suzaku, which results in Suzaku Aqua.
Fire: Jormuntide Ignis
Like his aquatic version, Jormuntide Ignis is shrouded in legend and mystery. His origin is said to be similar to Jormuntide's, but instead of being thrown into the sea, this sage was thrown to his death in a volcano and, when he returned, set the whole nation on fire. He has very high attack power and is one of the best pals to capture from the fire element.
He can also serve as a mount and, when the player is on his back, his fire attacks are enhanced. At the base he is very useful for tasks that require flames to be lit. Unfortunately, it can't be combined with other pals to generate new species and, as it's an epic pal, beginner players are advised to invest in other fire pals such as Pyrin Noct, Pyrin, Suzaku and Faleris.
Ice: Frostallion
Frostallion is not only one of the best Ice pals to catch, but also an excellent flying mount. Once on his back, the player will have all his attacks changed to ice and will be able to deal a lot of damage to the enemy. When it comes to hard work at the base, Frostallion helps a lot with tasks that require cooling.
It's a legendary pal, which means it won't be easy for beginners to see it lying around. For this group of players, we also recommend investing in Chillet, Sybelix, Ice Kingpaca, Wumpo and Ice Reptyro, which are also excellent ice pals. A possible combination with Frostallion is made with Helzephyr and results in Frostallion Noct.
Dragon: Jetragon
The Dragon type is the one that contains the strongest pals in Palworld and, within this element, Jetragon is the best indication to invest in. He is by far one of the best pals to capture and is considered the fastest flying mount in the game. Once on top of this pal, the player will be able to use a rocket launcher that continuously deals a lot of damage to enemies.
When placed in the base, Jetragon is very useful for tasks involving collecting and extracting oil. As it's a legendary pal, catching it won't be easy for the player, especially if they're a beginner. In this case, we recommend the pals Elphidran, Elphidran Aqua, Dinosssom Lux and Quivern, which are also among the best pals to catch from the Dragon element.
Dark: Necromus
Dark pals are also players' favorites, being the strongest pals in Palworld. Among the best pals to capture of this type, Necromus stands out. He is the dark version of Paladius and proves to be very effective in combat with blows that can deal a lot of damage to an opponent.
He also serves as a mount, being one of the few pals capable of making a double jump when mounted and, when at the base, is very useful for tasks involving deforestation and mining. As he is a legendary pal we recommend you go for Lyleen Noct, Felbat, Pyrin Noct Helzephyr, Astegon and Menasting if you are a beginner, as they are also very good dark pals.
Conclusion
Of course, as I've said in other paragraphs, if you're new to the game, there's not much point in going after legendary and epic pals, so you can focus on the tier A pals recommended in this text. Everything will also depend on your playing style and which will best suit your account's needs.
