How breeding works

Every Pal has a hidden breedPWR value. When two Pals breed, the offspring is determined by averaging parent breedPWR values and finding the closest match in the Paldeck. Some combos are special overrides (e.g. Penking, Anubis, Jormuntide) that ignore the formula.

Quick tips

  1. Same-species breeding always produces the same species — useful for rolling better IVs/passives.
  2. Cross-species breeding lets you target specific Pals by chaining intermediate parents.
  3. Use the calculator in reverse mode to find the cheapest path to a target Pal.
