In Palworld, you can choose from many different Pals, but for tough boss fights you will want to head in with the strongest. It is also fun to train them and assemble powerful teams. Of course, every Pal has its strengths and weaknesses, but some stand out clearly. Sometimes it is due to their base stats, sometimes to their partner abilities or passive abilities. We give you the two best Pals for each type to make team selection easier and ensure you are well prepared.
Palworld Neutral element: The best Pals Selyne and Paladius
The Neutral type needs to be careful, as it is weak to Dark and has no direct strengths of its own. Even so, there are two Pals that truly stand out and are well worth catching.
- Selyne: Selyne also carries the Dark element. This lets you perform well against other Neutral Pals. While you ride Selyne, both elements are strengthened.
- Paladius: Paladius is purely Neutral but hits incredibly hard. You should also use it as a mount, as it is the fastest Pal on land.
Palworld Fire element: Top Pals Blazamut and Bushi
Fire is one of the best elements in combat, being highly effective against both Ice and Grass. However, beware of Water attacks.
- Blazamut (Ryu): This Pal is extremely strong and can help in almost any situation. Its attack and defence make it a great tank. You can also use the variant with the additional Dragon type.
- Bushi (Noct): Bushi may not look that strong at first, but it impresses with speed and finesse. In terms of attack power, it has the highest attack in its category, though it has lower HP and defence.
Palworld Water element: Jormuntide and Neptilius compared
Water-type Pals are not always the strongest, but when you need to fight Fire, they are indispensable. There are many good choices here that are very close together.
- Jormuntide: Jormuntide impresses above all thanks to its high health, allowing it to stay in the fight longer.
- Neptilius: This Pal is extremely strong on its own. You can also ride it and even cross water. When attacking, it further supports you with spears that strike the enemy.
Palworld Electric element: Orsekt and Azurmane as the best picks
Against Water, electricity is your best bet in Palworld. The selection in this element is limited, but a few Pals truly stand out. Beware of Ground-type attacks.
- Orsekt: Orsekt has the best attack of all Electric Pals and is therefore always a solid choice. You can also farm items from Water Pals more efficiently, as they drop more items thanks to its partner ability.
- Azurmane: Azurmane is perfect for defence, with lots of HP, and it can dash in the air to evade attacks. Despite its defensive strengths, it remains combat-capable and is a great all-round pairing for your team.
Palworld Grass element: Verdash and Robinquill as underrated picks
Grass Pals might not seem the strongest at first glance, but they can be a true secret weapon. They are effective against Ground, but weak to Fire.
- Verdash: With Verdash you not only have the best overall Grass Pal on your team, you are also incredibly fast. Attacks barely hit you, making you virtually untouchable.
- Robinquill (Terra): From the other options we chose Robinquill. With its Terra form you can perform additional Ground attacks. Its strikes also deal more damage to weak points.
Palworld Ground element: Anubis and Knockhelm for strong counters
The Ground element offers several well-known Pals that fit brilliantly into a team. Ground is effective against Electric, but weak to Grass.
- Anubis: It is hard to look past Anubis, as it is very strong in battle. It is best used as a direct combat partner, where it deals more damage. Thanks to its smaller frame it can dodge attacks well.
- Knockhelm: One of the strongest Pals in the game. In addition to already strong stats, its partner ability grants a boost to attack and defence.
Palworld Dragon element: Jetdragon and Xenogard for the meta
When it comes to powerful Pals, the Dragon element is often the first choice. There are many top Pals you can use for your team. They are effective against Dark, but weak to Ice.
- Jetdragon: Jetdragon is the undisputed number one here. Its attack is immensely strong, and it is excellent for transport. While flying it can even wield a rocket launcher.
- Xenogard: There are several contenders for second place, but Xenogard convinces with the best defence of all Dragon Pals. It is also useful for farming quartz and meteorites.
Palworld Dark element: Bellanoir and Necromus at the top
The Dark element represents the pinnacle of the strongest Pals in Palworld. It is strong against Neutral and weak to Dragon, but it also boasts the best overall stats.
- Bellanoir (Libero): Bellanoir is extremely rare, but the strongest Pal in the entire game. No other creature can match its stats. Its partner ability deals additional damage.
- Necromus: Runner-up on the list of the strongest Pals. Necromus has incredibly powerful attacks and, while ridden, can even perform a double jump.
Palworld Ice element: Frostallion and Bastigor as the strongest Pals
Ice Pals are often underestimated, yet they are among the strongest in the game. They are weak to Fire and strong against Dragon. There are several top Pals here as well.
- Frostallion: You cannot look past Frostallion for the Ice type. It is by far the best choice. Strong across the board, and it also converts your attacks to Ice and empowers them.
- Bastigor: Bastigor is the next-best choice and impresses with high health. As a mount, it additionally attacks with an ice hammer.
