Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about how the calculator works, where the data comes from, and what to do if something looks wrong.
Is this calculator updated for Palworld 1.0?
The version badge shows the current game version and the data version this tool uses, along with the last verified date.
If the badge shows a stale or unknown version, the tool shows a warning instead of claiming to be current.
See Data & Updates for how versions are tracked.
How do I find out what two Pals produce?
Pick Parents → Child, select two Pals, and the result shows the child, the rule type, and the data version.
Parent order does not change the result.
How do I find parent pairs for a specific Pal?
Pick Find parents, choose your target Pal, and the tool lists every direct parent pair in the current data version.
What is a special combination?
A special combination is a fixed parent pair that overrides the normal breeding rule to produce a specific child.
Results from special rules are labeled Special on the result.
See How breeding works for the explanation.
How accurate is this calculator?
Each result is only as reliable as the data version it uses, which is why every answer shows its version and verification date.
We do not claim 100% accuracy. If a result looks wrong, you can report it with the query and version attached.
Where does the breeding data come from?
The data comes from tracked, MIT-licensed community extractors of Palworld's game files; the source details and license assessment are on Data & Updates.
Is this an official Palworld tool?
No. This is an unofficial fan-made tool, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pocketpair or any rights holder.
See Disclaimer and About.
Do I need to sign up or pay?
No. There is no account, no login, and no payment to use the calculator.
Your owned-Pal list, if you use the path planner, is stored only in your browser and is included in a shared link only if you choose to share it.
Does parent order matter?
No. Swapping Parent A and Parent B gives the same result.
Can I share a result?
Yes. Use Copy link or Share to get a URL that restores the same mode and selected Pals.
The shared URL restores the tool state on the calculator page; it does not create a separate page.
What if a result is wrong?
Use Report a wrong result. You'll see exactly what will be sent — the mode, your query, and the data version — before anything is submitted.
No personal data is sent with the report.
Is the shortest-path planner available?
Yes. The Shortest path mode lists the Pals you own and finds the fewest breeding generations to reach a target, using the verified 1.0 dataset.
If no route exists within your generation limit, the calculator tells you so rather than suggesting an unverified chain.
