Palworld: How to Find Every Pal | Habitat and Location Map

Palworld is a game absolutely stacked with content. With more than 113 Pals to collect, and an absolutely enormous map to explore, the possibilities are seemingly endless in Palworld.

In today’s article, we’ll go over how to catch every single Pal in Palworld with the help of our Habitat and Location Map.

How to Find Every Pal | Habitat & Location Map

To find Pals, the easiest option you have is to open your Paldeck and the game will automatically show where that specific Pal resides and other useful information about it.

Special Pals often have a “Habitat Unknown” message when you try to find them. This is because it cannot be found, it randomly spawns on the map.

Another useful feature to note is that certain Pals spawn differently at night. Some are exclusively nighttime creatures and can only be found then. You simply have to toggle between day and night to see their respective habitats by pressing the R-key.

Remember that your character only has to register a Pal for it to become available in the Paldeck, not capture it!

Pal Element Type

As you probably know by now, Pals in Palworld belong to different elements. There are different types of Pals. These elements are Grass, Ground, Electric, Water, Fire, Ice, Dragon, Dark, and Neutral. In this specific order.

The Pal element type can tell us a lot about where certain Pals reside and how to find them. Below, you can find a map we’ve created to help you know where to look for certain Pals.

Simply identify the element you need and go to the marked location for that specific element. For example, Ice can be found in the northern section of the map where there is mountainous terrain as indicated on the map below.

Following up on this, we have also created a map for every single common Pal and where it can be found. Note that this does not include bosses and unique Pals. We will go over that later in this article. 

ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: Some Pals are unique and don’t always spawn in their natural habitat area. Some Pals will spawn only in certain locations, no matter their element.

If you pay close attention to what types of Pals are there, you will soon realize that the Pal type corresponds with its natural habitat as explained earlier.

Ice types are found in the northernmost section of the map while grass types are found near the starting area where forests and grasslands are abundant. Ground pals can be found on the northeast side desert and a small desert section in the center.

Day and Night Pals

Their natural habitat isn’t the only thing that you have to look for when searching for Pals. It’s important to know that certain pals only appear at night time in certain areas, while others do in the daytime.

So, if you see Dark as an elemental type, this means that the Pal will appear only at night time.

Palworld Map Location of Every Pal

There are more than 110 Pals in Palworld and most of them are quite common and can be found in the early starting area. We’ve made a Palworld Map for locating all of the Pals around the world.

This map will help you complete your Paldeck list and catch every Pal that is missing from your selection.

If some Pal is missing, try to use the Palworld Natural Habitat Map to locate it.

NOTE: This Palworld Pal Location Map covers certain areas where there is the highest chance of getting that Pal. This doesn’t mean that the Pals will only spawn in that certain place.

Unique Pals/Boss Fights/Legendary Encounters

In this section, we will cover some of the most rewarding bosses you can encounter on the map starting with Mossanda Lux, a level 31 electric-type Pal. You can find this Pal on the eastern starting island.

Going up north from here is Jormuntide, another boss fight. This is a level 45 Pal that is a water and dragon type useful for going across large bodies of water due to its partner’s skill.

Finally, if we go all the way up north, to the abandoned mine, we can find a level 47 Dinossom Lux Pal boss fight. This is an electric and dragon-type Pal very useful for dealing high amounts of electrical damage.

Eikthyrdeer Terra is another legendary Pal found on the southernmost island. It is a ground type and it cannot be located anywhere else.

Next up we have Incineram Noct, located on both the western island and northern island during daytime.

Bushi is another legendary character that can only be found during daytime. Simply head over to the northern island and pray that you are strong enough to defeat it!

Verdash is an absolutely amazing character, very useful for your base. This one can be found on the western island during the daytime.

Opposite Verdash, we have Vaelet located on the southernmost island during the daytime. On the same island, you can find Elphidran also during the daytime.
