Even though the Neutral type Pals are usually placed at the bottom of the Palworld elements chart, that does not necessarily mean they are the worst Pals.
Several Neutral-type Pals provide amazing utilities that you can’t have otherwise. Some excel at Handiwork or other Work Suitabilities while others provide various buffs to players when kept in the party.
One thing to make note of is that every Neutral-type Pal has an intrinsic weakness to the Dark-type Pals, so it is recommended to keep these Pals for their Partner Skills or Work suitability rather than your main combat Pals.
This guide will focus on the best neutral Pals in the game and rank them based on their usefulness to the gameplay and base-building.
10. Vixy
| Work Suitability | Lv1 GatheringLv1 Farming |
| HP | 70 |
| Attack | 70 |
| Defense | 70 |
Vixy is an adorable fox-looking Pal that you can capture fairly early in the game. It is especially useful to farm various essential items. Capture a few Vixies and assign them to a ranch on your base.
Though this Pal may not seem very promising, there are a few reasons why we consider it one of the best Neutral Pals in Palworld. Firstly, this Pal is very easy to capture and can be found throughout the Windswept Hills area.
Secondly, they are essential in digging up several Palspheres and arrows. This is the main Pal you can use to exploit the unlimited Pal Sphere glitch as well. Other than its own Work Suitabilities which are very useful on their own, you just need one more Pal with the Transportation Work Suitability to place the item it grabs into a nearby Storage Box.
9. Eikthyrdeer
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Lumbering |
| HP | 95 |
| Attack | 80 |
| Defense | 80 |
Eikthydeer is one of the cooler-looking Pals you can find early on and use as a ground mount. Once you have crafted its saddle, hold the ride button to mount it.
Since this is one of the earliest mounts you can get your hands on, making the open-world exploration particularly more enjoyable, it makes a good Pal to capture. Moreover, it can also help you get out of certain tricky areas of the terrain with its double-jump ability, which is rare and quite fun to use.
It is also quite efficient for lumbering, so catch a few extras and assign them to your base. This will ensure that you never run out of wood at your base.
Lastly, acquiring this Pal is very easy as well, as you can find it in many areas including the Windswept Hills, the Sea Breeze Archipelago, the Forgotten Island, the Marsh Island, and the Eastern Wild Island.
8. Galeclaw
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Gathering |
| HP | 75 |
| Attack | 85 |
| Defense | 60 |
You will eventually find many small bird-like creatures flying in the sky during the mid-game areas. These pals are not particularly helpful in combat but they make for excellent Pal gliders.
Granted that this may be nowhere near the best flying mounts in the game, the gliding ability comes in very handy in the early game since you can barely get any flying mounts early on. With this, you can even unequip your glider and still be able to glide as long as there is a Galeclaw in your party.
The Pal can also be very useful in terms of its Work Suitability since it has a level 2 Gathering trait, which the previous Pals on this list do not have. Lastly, you can even use your best weapons freely while gliding on this Pal.
You can find this Pal throughout the Bamboo Groves and the Moonless Shore areas.
7. Gorirat
| Work Suitability | Lv1 HandiworkLv2 LumberingLv3 Transporting |
| HP | 90 |
| Attack | 95 |
| Defense | 90 |
Gorirat is a mid-game Pal with multiple Work Suitabilities. It is especially helpful at the base for lumbering and transporting but is no slouch at combat either. Having multiple Work Suitabilities is great since they allow the Pal to carry out multiple tasks around the base at once.
Gorirat also has a powerful Partner skill called Full-power Gorilla Mode that when activated will increase its attack power. This allows it to annihilate most of the Pals around its level easily. You can pair it with Pals that enhance Neutral attacks to make it even more devastating.
This Pal is mostly found all over the Verdant Brooke area.
6. Grintale
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Gathering |
| HP | 110 |
| Attack | 80 |
| Defense | 80 |
Grintale is a funny-looking Pal that can be extremely vicious in combat. Hence, it’s a great catch, especially for the mid-game, which makes it one of the best Neutral Pals in Palworld.
Moreover, the Pal also increases your Pal’s Neutral attacks and can be mounted as well. This not only allows you to cover longer distances faster but also increases your mobility whilst in combat.
Lastly, its level 2 Gathering Work Suitability is also very useful if you want to collect resources. You can find this Pal as a level 17 Field Alpha boss in the northern portion of Marsh Island.
5. Tocotoco
| Work Suitability | Lv1 Gathering |
| HP | 60 |
| Attack | 75 |
| Defense | 70 |
This whacky bird is as insane as it looks. Tocotoco has a unique Partner Skill that lets you grab it and use it as a grenade launcher that fires explosive eggs. None of the other Pals in the game have as crazy of a Partner Skill.
To use this ability, you must first capture a Tocotoco alive and craft its gloves. This is easier said than done as this crazy neutral Pal will try to latch on to you and explode. That is why you have to be careful and avoid letting it die. You can find this Pal in the Twilight Dunes and the Dessicated Desert areas.
Needless to say, this Pal can be very dangerous, but you can use that to your advantage by having it in your party and start bombing the heck out of other Pals. If you don’t plan to use it in combat, you can always make use of its level 1 Gathering trait to collect valuable resources.
4. Kingpaca
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Gathering |
| HP | 120 |
| Attack | 85 |
| Defense | 90 |
Kingpaca gives us many reasons to consider it as one of the best Neutral Pals in Palworld. Firstly, this Pal probably rocks the coolest style in the game with a crown on its head.
Looks aside though, the Pal can be devastating in combat, especially in the mid-game. Other than its amazing stats, Kingpaca has multiple active skills like Rock Lance and Tri-Lightning which allow it to annihilate any Pal in front of it.
It’s Partner Skill, Kingly Slam, isn’t something to look over either. This skill not only allows you to mount the Pal but also significantly increases your carrying capacity while mounted. Moreover, it also gives the Pal the ability to jump and slam down on enemies, significantly reducing their health.
Kingpaca can only be found as a level 23 Alpha boss in the center of the Windswept Hills. If you want the normal version, you have to try your luck at the No.2 Wildlife Sanctuary, which you can only access via water or a flying mount.
3. Lunaris
| Work Suitability | Lv3 Handiwork, Lv1 Transporting, Lv1 Gathering |
| HP | 90 |
| Attack | 100 |
| Defense | 90 |
While in the party, Lunaris manipulates gravity, increasing the player’s max carrying capacity. This is important because managing your carrying capacity becomes quite hard in the mid to late game.
One of the major reasons Lunaris is so high on this list is its level 3 handiwork – a trait only beaten by Anubis, which isn’t unlocked much later in the game. Hence, this Pal can serve as one of the best Pals to use at your base early on, significantly improving your crafting speed.
The Pal isn’t shy in combat either. With a great set of stats and even better active skills, Lunaris can tear apart most other Pals of the same level easily.
2. Fenglope
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Lumbering |
| HP | 110 |
| Attack | 110 |
| Defense | 90 |
Despite being a neutral Pal, Fenglope beats several other elemental Pals with its diverse array of skills. This Pal can learn grass and water-type skills and prove quite helpful in battle. However, what truly sets it apart from other Pals, is that it is one of the fastest ground mounts in Palworld.
Moreover, Fenglope can perform a double jump that reaches the skies. It can even be used as an alternative to a flying mount and will let you jump across a small village in one double jump.
1. Paladius
| Work Suitability | Lv2 Lumbering, Lv2 Mining |
| HP | 120 |
| Attack | 120 |
| Defense | 145 |
There is only one Pal that can outdo Fenglope in its double jump. Paladius might not be able to jump as high as Fenglope but it makes up for it with a Triple Jump. Yes, this Pal can perform a triple Jump when used as a mount – but that’s the least of it.
Paladius is universally considered the best Neutral Pal in Palworld, and rightfully so because it is one of the four Legendary Pals. Hence, it has the best stats out of all the Neutral-type Pals and is incredibly powerful as well.
This is largely thanks to its double elemental type – Neutral and Ice. Because of this, Paladius can be very efficient and diverse in combat, obliterating almost any Pal in front of it in the blink of an eye.
This Pal can only be encountered as an Alpha Pal in a world boss fight in the extreme east corner of the map. However, we do not recommend taking on this Pal before reaching level 50, having acquired some of the best Dark Pals in Palworld.
