How to use the Palworld Breeding Calculator
- Parents to child. Search for two Pals in the first tab. The child appears straight away, along with the rank maths behind it.
- Find parents for a Pal. Switch to the second tab, pick the Pal you want and read the list of pairs that produce it. Filter by name to narrow it down to Pals you already own.
- Check the rank table. The third tab lists every Pal by breeding rank. Click any name to jump to its parent pairs.
- Share a result. Press Copy link to get a URL that opens on the same pair or target.
How Palworld breeding works
Every Pal has a hidden breeding rank, a number between 20 and 3100. When two different Pals breed, the game adds the two ranks, adds one, and halves the total, rounding down. The child is the breedable Pal whose rank is closest to that number. If two Pals are equally close, the one with the higher rank wins.
For example, Lamball has rank 3050 and Cattiva has rank 2760. The sum plus one is 5811, and half of that rounded down is 2905. The closest breedable Pal is Daedream at 2910, so Lamball and Cattiva breed Daedream.
Two Pals of the same species always breed their own species.
Special recipes
Some Pals ignore the rank rule. They only come from fixed recipes, where one specific pair always makes one specific child. This calculator marks those as Special recipe. A couple of recipes also depend on gender: the same two species give a different child depending on which parent is female. Those show up as Depends on gender in the result.
A few Pals never appear from the rank rule at all, including some legendary and event Pals. For those, the parents tab tells you so, and lists the fixed recipe if there is one.
What this calculator does not cover
It tells you which species a pair produces. It does not predict passive skills, IVs or gender of the child, which are random. Parents also need to be opposite genders to breed in a Breeding Farm.
Frequently asked questions
Does the order of the parents matter?
No. Pal A with Pal B gives the same child as Pal B with Pal A. The only exception is the small number of gender-specific recipes, where the result depends on which parent is female.
Why does my breeding result not match the calculator?
Check that you picked the right form of the Pal. Variant Pals have their own ranks and show a B after the Paldeck number. Also check whether a special recipe applies. If the game was just updated, a new Pal or a rebalance may not be in the data yet.
Can I breed legendary Pals?
Some legendary and boss Pals are never produced by the rank average. They come from a fixed recipe, or only from breeding two of the same species. Use the parents tab to see which applies to the Pal you want.
What is a breeding rank?
A hidden number each Pal carries that the game uses to decide the child. Lower numbers are rarer Pals and higher numbers are more common ones. The rank table tab lists them all.
Is this data for Palworld v1.0?
Yes. It was built for the v1.0 release and checked against the full pair table. We update it when a patch adds Pals or changes breeding.
Does it work on a dedicated server?
Breeding rules are the same on every server. On a dedicated server you can also change how long eggs take to hatch, which is the slow part of a breeding project.
