Breeding is a mechanic in Palworld. Through breeding you can get various passive skills or Subspecies Pals.
To breed Pals together you will need a Breeding Farm. Once you place the Breeding Farm you must assign a male and female Pal. The Breeding Farm also needs to be supplied with Cake. After some time they will produce a Pal Egg which can then be incubated.
There are over 18,797 breeding pair combinations, and we simply cannot list them all!
How Breeding Works
The way breeding works is rather simple. Each Pal has a hidden breeding power number between 10 and 1500. The lower the number the more rare or powerful the Pal is.
The game will then pick the Pal with the closest power to that average. As an example, if the baby Power ends up being 1015, and the closest values are 1010 ( Felbat) and 1020 ( Robinquill), the baby will be Robinquill. The 'tie breaker' (since 1015 is equal distance between 1010 and 1020) just comes down to the which Pal comes first in the game file's index. In this case Robinquill comes first in the game files so it gets picked over Felbat.
The way this works means you can never breed a Pal stronger/rarer than your strongest/rarest parent. For example, if your starting parents have a power of 570 ( Anubis) and 1460 ( Cattiva) the result will be the following: (570 + 1460) / 2 = 1015 ( Robinquill). If you then bred that baby at 1015 with your starting 570 Anubis: (570 + 1015) / 2 = 792.5 (which is closest to Arsox at 795).
If you continue this multiple times:
- (570 + 795) / 2 = 682.5 ( Univolt at 680)
- (570 + 680) / 2 = 625 ( Bushi at 625)
- (570 + 625) / 2 = 597.5 ( Incineram at 605)
As you can see you can get closer and closer to your 570 Anubis but you can never breed something stronger/rarer. But this also shows you can take one strong/rare Pal and breed it with its offspring and quickly start making Pals near that strength.
Gender Ratios
Most Pals have a gender ratio of 1:1 Male to Female. These are the outliers.

List of Special Combinations
Below are the special combinations that do not use the breeding power method to determine the result.
All combinations have been repeatedly tested to ensure results.
This can be seen in this chart.
- Note: Katress/Wixen results is dependant on the genders of the parents. Female Wixen gives Wixen Noct and Female Katress gives Katress Ignis.
Additionally, 12 other Pals can only be born from two parents of the same species:
