Every Pal has different abilities they can use in combat or passively on the side. These are called Partner Skills and are fixed for each species. They can cover many aspects of the game, from collecting ores or other resources to fun little perks, the option to ride, or raw combat support. But with so many Pals, some just aren’t worth it. Today we’ll look at which Pals with which Partner Skills really pay off—and which ones you should even condense to make them stronger.
Palworld: Best Partner Skills for combat
Combat offers plenty of powerful skills you can put to work. Many revolve around specific type combinations, which shine when you can target an enemy’s weakness. Learn more in our combat guide: (Palworld combat system explained: types, stats, attacks, weapons) . Some skills can heal or otherwise support you, while others let your Pal take up arms themselves.
Jetragon: This ability only becomes useful around level 50—but once you get there, you’re practically unstoppable. With Jetragon you can fly and fire a rocket launcher from the air at the same time. Perfect for wide-area attacks where nothing can touch you.
Knocklem: A simple, effective skill that grants increased attack and defense. Great as a passive combat buff when things get dicey.
Dazzi: With the Necklace at level 22 you can use this strong skill. Dazzi fights alongside you and can call down lightning to strike your enemies. The bolts hit incredibly hard and get even better when you use Condensation.
Omascul: A strange Pal, but extremely useful for your team. Its skill grants increased experience points—perfect for leveling and powering up your other Pals, and ideal for training weaker or newly added Pals.
Lyleen: Sometimes you need to fall back and regroup—this is where Lyleen shines. She can heal you and has the strongest healing skill of any Pal.
Palworld base: Partner Skills for farming and production
You should also rely on a few strong Pals at your base to make the most of your resources. Plenty of Pals can produce specific materials and absolutely belong on a Ranch. But that’s not all—some skills provide powerful boosts to certain farms, which is just as valuable.
Lullu: If you run crop farms at your base, Lullu is the perfect support for your fields. Her skill makes plants grow faster, and it scales up the more Lullu you station at your base.
Prunelia: A perfect follow-up to Lullu for harvest time. Prunelia increases your crop yields, and this Partner Skill can also stack with multiple Prunelia.
Shroomer: Shroomer is rideable and also brings a great base perk. Thanks to its spores, your working Pals lose their sanity more slowly. They’ll work more efficiently and won’t break down as easily. In busy bases, multiple Shroomer are ideal. Use Condensation to strengthen this effect.
Vixy: Vixy is one of the first Pals you’ll find, and it remains useful all game long. On a Ranch it can dig up Pal Spheres, Bones, Arrows, and even Gold. Condense it to rank 5 to get even better Spheres.
Braloha: If you’re producing eggs at your farm, keep a Braloha at your base. It shortens the time between eggs. Unlike Lullu or Prunelia, this does not stack. Learn more about breeding in our guide: (Palworld Breeding Guide 2026: Breeding Farm, Incubator, and Cake) .
Palworld specialty Pals: Unique Partner Skills
Finally, here are five more Pals with truly unique Partner Skills. You should keep them around—you never know when they’ll be clutch. It’s also worth experimenting with other Pals to discover more great skills.
Smokie: If you’re hunting for Chromium, bring Smokie. It can locate this rare resource and even gather it during combat. You need Chromium to craft Hexolite, a key endgame material in Palworld.
Yakumo: Probably the best Partner Skill for players chasing top-tier Pals. You can ride Yakumo, but its combat perk is the real prize: captured Pals have a chance to inherit Yakumo’s passive skills. This can save you hours of breeding. Give Yakumo four of the best passives to take full advantage.
Dogen: Dogen can teleport you anywhere on the map to the nearest base. It doesn’t work in Dungeons, but otherwise it’s an indispensable ability.
Mimog: Want to open certain treasure chests but don’t have a key? Mimog has you covered. The stronger its Partner Skill, the higher the tier of chests it can open.
Tombat: Use Tombat when you’re searching for specific Pals. Its ultrasonic pulse detects nearby Pals and marks them on your map, helping you hunt rare ones more efficiently.
Conclusion: Use Partner Skills wisely—and condense your Pals
Palworld offers plenty of useful Pals you can deploy for your goals. Some are clearly stronger, so it pays to focus on them. Whether in combat, at your base, or out exploring, these fifteen Pals have Partner Skills that consistently deliver. To make them even better, you should condense them to raise their skill levels.
